Puerto Rican BOHO at its best !

I can't say enough about our host ~Carol. She made sure to reach out to us before we arrived and she's super pleasant. The house was exactly what I hoped for. Simple living in a relaxed home surrounded by the nature of Puerto Rico. The yard is a haven and we enjoyed reading the visitors post on the outside walls. Be sure to appreciate the art work throughout the house and yards. And remember your bug spray. ✌️😊

Womderful stay at a great home with the best host ever!

The Hippie Chalet was a delightful stay in the heart of PR! It was close to everything but far enough away from the craziness of the San Juan metro area that we were able to relax. It was nice to have room and a pleasant personal space. I cannot speak highly enough of our wonderful host Carola! She truly went above and beyond to ensure my graduates (and me!) felt special and enjoyed this trip to the fullest! The girls loved the beautifully decorated space, the amenities available to us to use such as the chairs and the close proximity to beaches. I loved the security of having a gated living space with private parking, the proactiveness and quick responses of our amazing host anytime I reached out and the lovely places around the home to relax with a good book or glass of wine like the second floor balcony. The bug zappers were a godsend but pack plenty of mosquito repellant to better enjoy the outdoors. Take advantage of the bikes or just walk to the wildlife preserve that is only 5 minute walk from the Chalet! There is beach access a short bike ride from the home but some of the most beautiful beaches are a quick 10-20 min trip by car—recommend going early to secure parking, sometimes roadside or on/near the beach itself. Tips: If you are from the continental US, please leave expectations of home at home. The Caribbean is a beautiful place and is meant to be enjoyed. Expect a more natural environment. Reach out to the host for any questions! Highly recommended!

Loved the backyard!

We enjoyed our stay here. The house was clean with all the amenities you might need. We had a little issue with the shower water, it was either very hot or cold. Carol was very apologetic and said that they would be working to correct it. We loved the backyard and used the pool to cool off. Make sure to use bug spray because the no see ums are no joke! We felt the neighborhood was safe but the roosters kept in people’s yards are very loud, even during the day. Carol did supply ear plugs which worked well. The beach is near but we were unable to swim because of red flags. We used the bikes to explore the boardwalk. Overall are stay here was good!

Coolest house we have ever rented

We stayed in multiple homes during our trip to Puerto Rico and this one was just awesome. Incredible sounds of frogs and roosters was better than any white noise machine version you’ve ever heard. Pool was bigger than it looked in the pictures. Just right in a humid night. The murals in the yard were really well done and everything about the place showed that someone put a lot of thought into this property. The lockable metal fencing around the house made everyone feel really comfortable and safe and the neighbors were friendly. If your looking for a really chill place to lay in a hammock and listen to the sounds of Puerto Rico I highly recommend this location.

Amazing

This property could not have been better! It was super clean and had all the utensils kitchen necessary to cook whatever meal we wanted. The backyard was beautiful and was the perfect place to hang out at after a long day at the beach. The location was perfect, the beach was only a half mile walk down the road. Hippie Chalet allowed us to experience Puerto Rico as the locals do. If you want to enjoy Puerto Rico without the tourists and still be a short drive to San Juan this is the perfect place to do so!

About the host

Hosted by Carol Crews

Host profile image
Returning to my roots in Puerto Rico in 2020, I made the decision to share the beauty and cultural richness of Piñones in the town of Loiza with visitors from around the world. Known as "The Capital of Traditions," Loiza is deeply rooted in Afro-Caribbean heritage, serving as a vibrant symbol of Puerto Rico's diverse culture and tight-knit community.

Growing up in Puerto Rico, I experienced firsthand the warmth and hospitality of our people, and I'm eager to extend that same hospitality to guests who choose to stay in our chalet. Our aim is not only to provide comfortable accommodation but also to offer an authentic cultural experience that showcases the unique traditions and history of Piñones and Loiza.

By opening our doors to families and guests, we hope to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation for the vibrant tapestry of cultures that make Puerto Rico so special. Whether it's exploring the beautiful beaches and coastline of Piñones, savoring traditional cuisine, or immersing oneself in the rhythms of live music and dance, there's no shortage of experiences waiting to be discovered in Loiza.

Through our hosting efforts, we aim to create meaningful connections between visitors and the local community, leaving a lasting impression that goes beyond just a vacation. Our hope is that every guest who stays with us leaves not only with cherished memories but also with a newfound appreciation for the rich cultural heritage of Piñones and the town of Loiza.

Why they chose this property

Growing up in the neighboring town of Canovanas, but spending weekends in Loiza holds a special place in my heart. Those trips to Loiza were more than just outings – they were opportunities to connect with family, friends, and the vibrant culture of the area. The beaches of Loiza likely served as our playground, where we spent countless hours building splashing in the waves, and soaking up the sun. Now, as I welcome guests to our chalet in Piñones, I have the opportunity to share a piece of my childhood with others. Through the beauty of art, the flavors of local cuisine, and the warmth of Puerto Rican hospitality, we provide visitors with an authentic glimpse into the magic of Loiza – a place where family, food, and culture come together to create unforgettable experiences.

What makes this property unique

The art murals created by local artists truly set our property apart from the rest. Each mural tells a story, reflecting the vibrant culture and spirit of Piñones and the town of Loiza.

Adorning the walls of our chalet, these artworks serve as windows into the heart and soul of the community, showcasing the talent and creativity of our local artists. From colorful depictions of traditional folklore to abstract interpretations of Afro-Caribbean heritage, every mural adds a unique touch to the atmosphere of our property.

By supporting local artists and showcasing their work, we hope to not only enhance the experience of our guests but also to contribute to the cultural vitality of our community. These art murals are more than just decorations – they are a celebration of creativity, diversity, and the enduring spirit of Piñones and Loiza.
