Wonderful Stay

Cozy, clean home with wonderful view! We lost electricity for a few hours (Due to the blackout on the island) however back on by early evening. The fridge stayed very cold even with the power outage. We were out all day the day of the power outage hiking El Yunque - which was amazing day trip. Definitely bring mosquito spray! Hector and Aida stayed in touch and were very helpful with recommendations in the local area. Would definitely stay again!

Paradise!

Just what we needed! An outstanding experience. The house and pool were immaculate. Such a comfortable and well appointed home away from home. The views are just wonderful. Excellent communication and easy checkin. We enjoyed looking for shells and sea glass on the beach. Bring water shoes, the beach is rocky. So relaxing to enjoy the sunrise from the hammocks. Kitchen has everything you need. We can’t say enough good things about this place. Would love to come back!

Great for the family

Property was amazing. Our family enjoyed the private pool and direct access to the beach. It was great for our kids to experience a different culture without excessive tourist. The house feels bigger than it looks in the photos. We had 8 people and had plenty of space. Hector, the property manager, is so welcoming and personable!

Relaxing Hideaway

Nice beachfront property. The view is amazing!! Beach is rocky, so not really great for swimming, but nice swimming beaches are not far away. Pool was very refreshing! Perfect for our family. Location is not far from grocery, gas, & dining... also reasonable distance from activities/landmarks that Puerto Rico is known for/has to offer. This was a wonderful place to stay and we definitely recommend!

Amazing Host

Aida is an amazing host who provided generous care to my family and I during our stay. The house is great and equipped with cold A/C. One thing to note about the property is DO NOT SWIM in the beach. Not only are there plenty of rocks but the current is way too strong to swim in — even for experienced swimmers. Drive to another beach if you’re going to swim.

Nice family vacation

The property met out needs. A little noisy turning over in the bunk bed and a bit crowded in that bed room. Lights flickered on and off when using the dryer or microwave. The beach and pool/ backyard provided lots of relaxing time. Overall, a nice stay. Would stay again.

Amazing views

The ocean views and the pool in the backyard are indescribable. We woke up to watch the sunrise every morning. The house itself could use a little updating and repair, but was comfortable enough for our stay. There are wonderful restaurants very close by. We loved "living like a local" for a month. Aida and her team made sure we had everything we needed and were quick to respond to any issues. I would gladly come back for another month!

Ocean Retreat

My family of 5 stayed here over spring break and enjoyed every minute of it! The views of the beach were stunning, our kids loved playing in the pool for hours, and I loved falling asleep to the sound of the waves. There were beach front restaurants within walking distance that we visited and enjoyed some local sangria. We used this as our home base and did day trips to Old San Juan and El Yunque National Forest. We plan on booking this place on our next visit❤️

We had an amazing stay. The house is just as advertised. Perfect small town feel for a relaxing vacation. Grocery stores were about 15-20 minute drive. We were able to eat meals at home during the day and then go to amazing restaurants in the evenings. Hector was so nice and helpful. I just want to add that every single person we met on our stay was super friendly and always wanting to give us tips on what we should see and eat. Very Proud Community.

Our Backyard was the Ocean

We loved the location and the yard and deck. It suited our group of three couples to have the house as a base for day trips, and the house and yard and beach gave us enough space to not be on top of each other all of the time. We enjoyed the small seaside restaurants in the area. Property manager Irene was very helpful. We would definitely consider coming back!

I stayed in three different places while visiting Puerto Rico and Patillas was the best of all. The beach house was spectacular. It’s like a dream life to wake up to the waves crashing and the cool breeze while enjoying it all. Loved it! Irene, our host, was super attentive. She was like having a friend to call and ask questions we had. Thank you for a wonderful trip

A very nice beach house

We had a great time and truly enjoyed the place. It is a very nice property. It was rather rainy and windy the first several while we were there, but the remaining days were lovely. The only suggestion I have for improving the experience is to have a more comfortable couch or indoor sitting area. Of course, this isn't necessary unless it rains, which I bet it rarely does.

Perfect vacation rental!!

We had a wonderful time on our family vacation at this property. The beach is beautiful and it's so lovely to have a postcard view right our your back door. To top that off, the house is very clean, the owners couldn't have been more accommodating and the town of Patillas is very friendly! The house comes with everything you need to enjoy yourself, from hammocks under the palm trees, to pool toys, to air conditioned bedrooms, to a washer and dryer so your towels stay clean and dry...Basically all the little conveniences you take for granted when traveling are already taken care of. Simply put, we loved this property and wouldn't hesitate to vacation here again.

About the host

Hosted by Aida Plaud

Host profile image
I was born and raised in this once-small fishing village called Emerald of the South (Esmeralda del Sur). Greg, on the other hand, was born and raised in Minnesota. He fell in love with Puerto Rico, especially this beautiful ocean-side community, the first time he visited my family 20 years ago. He became captivated by the green mountains, blue sky, and beautiful light blue ocean waters. Since I left my beautiful island, I always wanted to go back. So, I purchased this quaint Caribbean getaway and remodeled it into a 3 bedroom home with amazing ocean views. Now, owning and sharing a piece of paradise with others is truly a blessing.

Why they chose this property

I was born and raised in this lovely paradise town, and I want others to know and enjoy this beautiful quaint town. It is one of the best locations for any family who loves to be close to nature and yet still enjoy other island activities!!! The property provides a reasonable, comfortable place for the family to reunite and make memories.

What makes this property unique

The house is warm and welcoming, with panoramic ocean views and mountains. Whether you enjoy a relaxing day at the beach, a full-day excursion, sitting on the open balcony taking in the Caribbean, or watching sunsets with drinks, rest assured you will feel at home. We invite you to see why this town is called Emerald of South (Esmeralda Del Sur). It will be a memorable experience for the entire family!!!
The first time I entered the home, I was mesmerized by the view of the ocean and the thought of having the beach as my backyard. It was amazing how it totally relaxed me and reduced my stress level. It was not only the view but the breezes coming off the ocean, the sound of the waves breaking and the warmth of the sun, or the coolness of the shade.
