The host ,Manuel ,was very responsive from the start during the booking and during our short stay. I was very grateful he allowed us one night stay with a middle of the night arrival with key pad access. The outdoor space was charming. Lots of beds fit our group of 5 well!
The stay was great. Manuel Jr. was our contact point before arrival; Manuel Sr. lives on-site and was our contact person during our stay. Both were super responsive and helpful. The place itself was clean and perfectly agreeable. There was street parking right in front of the building. All was exactly as advertised. Certainly, you can find more upscale places, but my wife, two teens, and I were very comfortable and I don't think you can beat the value.
The home is very clean and located in a quiet neighborhood about a 15 minute Uber ride from the airport. The bedrooms are comfortable and are each equipped with AC units for optimal sleep. The refrigerator was kindly supplied with a complimentary bottled water for each guest. The host was very responsive and available for whatever we needed.
Manuel is a very thoughtful host. Water bottles in the fridge at our arrival, neatly folded towels with toothbrushes provided and felt very safe. The check in and parking information is so clear which made our stay even smoother. The place was spotless as well. I truly recommend.
Very warm and inviting! Both the owner and his son and friendly and helpful. Plenty of sleeping space with ac. Only downside is living room gets really hot even with fans.
Definitely deserves a 10/10 at minimum. The host was very accommodating. The property was cozy and a great location to explore the island. 45 minutes to El Yunque National Rain Forest, 12 minutes to beaches at Isla Verde, 15 minutes to Santurce Art walk… 25 minutes to old San Juan. The area is quiet and safe.
Photos are deceiving , it is old home . Found roaches and it was terrible experience.

Thank you for your review, Surrender.
We respectfully disagree with the claims made in this review. Throughout the stay, no issues were clearly reported to us in a way that allowed us the opportunity to address them. When we were notified by VRBO regarding a claim that demanded full refund, we immediately contacted the guest to request details and photos so we could assist, the response received the next day was: “no need to worry.”
As hosts, we take every concern seriously and always try to resolve matters promptly and respectfully. However, effective communication during the stay is essential in order for us to provide support and solutions in real time.
We also want to clarify that our listing includes extensive photos and a detailed description of the property, so guests can make an informed decision prior to booking. Some of the photos included in this review appear to highlight normal features of the home (such as the wooden ceiling and patio flooring), which are accurately shown in our listing. So we are confused as to what the intentions were.
To future guests: The Chalet is a small family-run business located in a quiet residential area, offering privacy and a peaceful stay. We are committed to maintaining high standards and providing excellent service, and we kindly ask guests to communicate any concerns during their stay so we can address them immediately. We encourage guests to take a look to as many reviews as possible in order to get a feeling of what the property has to offer and help you make an informed decision.
This location was awesome..there was not a thing missing..the management was great..as soon as I text them they responded..the only thing is that a ac will be good in the living room but the fans help some..we where totally satisfied I definitely recommend this location plenty of space and comfortable beds.. very clean.. Thank you Manuel for the great hospitality..see you soon.

We are sorry that the experience did not meet the guest’s expectations.
Both of their reservations were held for more than six months. Shortly before arrival, the guests requested a full refund due to personal circumstances; however, in accordance with VRBO’s cancellation policy, this was not possible. Even so, we worked with them in good faith and granted multiple requests in an effort to be helpful and fair.
No concerns were communicated to us during the stay, and the reservation was ended without allowing us the opportunity to address or resolve any issues. We always encourage guests to reach out immediately so we can assist in real time.
We would also like to share that behind this property is a hardworking family doing their best to move forward and provide an honest, clean, and safe space for our guests. Mutual communication and consideration are essential to a positive experience for everyone involved.
To future guests: we are a small, family-run business that operates with transparency and care. We encourage you to review all photos, descriptions, and reviews carefully, and to contact us at any time during your stay — we are always happy to help.
The Chalet was very convenient to the airport and San Juan area. The location near the airport made it somewhat noisy from the planes passing overhead frequently. The power went out for a few hours but the owner has a back up generator that helped with the air conditioning. The bathroom shower didn't drain well but was well supplied. There are several stair steps to reach the apartment. The balcony overlooks a nice neighborhood and we were able to buy fruit from a food truck that stopped close by. We were able to park safely on the street and we felt safe in the apartment.

Thank you for your review, Aida.
We were genuinely surprised and disappointed by the low rating, especially considering the communication and attention provided throughout your stay.
Our home is conveniently located near the airport, which many guests find to be a great advantage. In over 7 years of hosting, this is the first time we have received a complaint regarding airplane noise. While we understand that individual sensitivity to sound can vary, this is unfortunately something outside of our control.
Regarding the shower drain, our team personally inspected and tested it after your checkout and confirmed it is draining properly. We do wish this had been communicated during your stay, as we would have been happy to address it immediately and ensure everything was fully resolved at the time.
To future guests: we are a small family-run business and take great pride in providing a clean, comfortable, and private stay in a quiet residential area. While we understand we may not be able to meet every expectation perfectly, we are always working to improve and provide the best experience possible. We encourage guests to review our previous feedback to make the most informed decision when booking.
Thank you again for your feedback, and we wish you all the best!
I stayed for 10 days and had a great experience! Host Manuel was very easy to communicate with by text, and his father, who lives downstairs, was so kind and helpful with local information. He greeted us warmly when we arrived. It’s a cute and comfortable place to stay—close to the airport, shopping, restaurants, and attractions. The neighborhood felt safe and family-friendly, and we felt very welcomed. The space was clean and well stocked with thoughtful, unexpected items that came in handy. Questions were answered quickly. Highly recommend — 10/10
This property was as-described with lots of nice touches to be comfortable. But the power went out on our last morning there, and it was pretty uncomfortable in the summer heat. There were some good restaurants nearby and it was a good distance from the airport. Overall a good stay.
This property location is close to airport, old san juan, beaches and many more attractions. This place is definitely worth going back it felt like home away from home and mr manual is such a wonderful person he treated us like family. The house is clean and very comfortable i will recommend anyone to visit
Place as described, beautiful, clean and quiet. Definitely staying again. Thank you!
