Great Location, cozy stay

Staying on the beach in Luquillo was great- we went to the beach right beside the residence and could walk in both directions to other beaches and downtown was just a 10 minute walk away. Great restaurants - highly recommend La Fonda. We had a car so supermarket was less than 5 mins away, short ride to Rainforest and Fajardo. Cynthia was very communicative, easy checkin. When the power went out she stayed in touch, elevators were working, and so much to enjoy outdoors anyway. Highly recommend!

Good value for the price

For us, everything we needed was there for a reasonably priced week. The pros: 1) beautiful view from the balcony, 2) easy access to beach and pool, 3) the kitchen was well equipped, 4) easy walking distance to restaurants and grocery store. For those looking for a completely updated venue, this might not be for you. The louverd shutters in the bedroom didn't close well, and the fridge and stove were older models, but if you're not a diva, this place would work well for you.

This was a great location for access to Luquillo Beach, Playa Azul, La Pared and some great restaurants. Wifi worked great and there were fun beach items to use. Could hear the waves while I slept. Thank you!

Great location and condo!

My daughter and I enjoyed our stay here. The view was spectacular and the location was convenient to many sights. The condo was perfect for the two of us and well-equipped. We appreciated all the beach towels and beach equipment. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook a few meals in. The beds were comfortable and we loved listening to the ocean waves at night.

Luquillo, March 2024

This spot was perfect for us, a senior couple from NH. Kitchen had all the necessary tools, the view of the beach clear from the balcony. We spent a lot of time looking at the ocean from the balcony. Building felt secure, and all the folks we met were friendly and helpful.

Playa Azul

This is not a new building, so don't expect any high end appliances or fixtures. The kitchen was well equipped and had everything we needed. The beds were comfortable with plenty of linens and the shower worked well. The view from the balcony was incredible! The beach and pool were amazing and there was tons of activities close by. Would stay again. AND, the clock on the microwave was actually set to the right time(what!?!)

Clean & Decent Location

We went for a quick long weekend get away from the cold. The condo was clean, bed was comfortable, and the view was beautiful. The condo is about a 5 minute drive from Luquillo Beach and the Kiosks. There are about 2 restaurants you can walk to. To get to the other fast food places and Walgreens you would have to cross a 4 lane highway at a light. There is 1 air conditioner in the bedroom. Worked well for us in the bedroom, but not sure if it would work for cooling the whole condo during hotter months. Also, they ask that you do not flush toilet paper due to old pipes. A bidet would probably be a good investment. Also, the waves at the beach outside the condo are too rough to swim in. No one was in the water. But, again Luquillo Beach is super close and the view is amazing to wake up to. It was nice and clean with a good location

Spectacular view

Most of our time at the condo during the day was spent on the balcony since the ocean and beach view was the wonderful. The complex staff were always, friendly supportive and helpful. The under used pool sometimes felt like my private one. Easy access to restaurants and groceries. A lazy and very enjoyable month spent with my husband.

Great location, not the best cleaning

This place had a great location right across from the beach. The property was really safe and had nice common areas. While the property was a bit out of date, the low price made up for that. However, the actual condo fell short for us due to poor cleaning. When we ate our first breakfast, we found loads of dirty dishes - like every dish we took out of the cupboard was dirty. So we spent way too much time on vacation washing dirty dishes. Also, the shower wasn't very clean when we got there and there were plenty of dust bunnies everywhere. I think that the property needs a deep cleaning every now and then to avoid this in the future - as many rental properties need.

Dated

Rust and peeling badly of kitchen appliances. No zipper on insulated bag. Fridge worked good. Bugs in bathroom. Appalled that we had to out toilet paper in the trash. Didn’t see extra bags, went to buy some. Beds comfortable. Air conditioning worked good in bedroom. Should have a tv in there because the living room heat was unbearable. Fans only moved hot air around. Towels/wash cloths/kitchen towels were so old you could almost see through them and they didn’t smell good. Definitely need new ones. Keys were so difficult to use. Took at least 3-5 minutes of twists me and clicking to get it open. Odd that you have to use a key to get out of the room. Security was friendly. Pool was beautiful but didn’t know it is shared by all of properties. View was the only plus. Would not return to this property without proof it had been updated.
