This was a wonderful apartment to rent. It was very clean and well equipped with kitchen and beach items. I knew it was on the first floor which was fine but I would prefer to rent on a higher floor next time so I can open the windows!
Clean, comfortable, well-supplied studio right on the beach - perfect for a restful stay. Communication with the owner/manager was excellent, check in and check out were easy. We did not rent a car - our uber costs for the week were less than the cost of a rental. Would definitely rebook for a future trip.
This studio is small but had all I needed. Excellent use of space, wifi and tv, amenities and kitchen, right next to the beach, close to airport. Hector was great at communicating and answering questions. Close to grocery, restaurants, bars, casinos, and uber is cheap to go anywhere. Had a wonderful time!
When we first arrived, Hector’s instructions were very thorough, though we had a bit of trouble finding the correct lock box. When we opened the door to our room, we immediately knew we made the right choice when booking our stay. The place was very clean, the lighting was nice, and we couldn’t have hoped for a better location (we spent a lot of time on the beach). The place was a bit smaller than it appeared in the pictures, but honestly it was perfect for me and my girlfriend. Book your stay here!
This is a small but efficient apartment right next to the beach. I had everything I needed within the apartment. The neighborhood is safe and there are many restaurants and bars. Many people struggled with the check in since there are many key lock boxes on the outside. However, once you found your box the stay is totally worth its money.
The bed was probably the comfiest thing I have ever slept in! I would definitely go back and stay here!

The property manager was so nice and gave clear instructions on check-in which made it really easy. The condo was beautiful, clean, had good wifi and AC, a nice TV, and was steps away from a great beach. It is about the size of a hotel room, so perfect for a couple. It’s walking distance from lot’s of restaurants and a full size grocery store. I would definitely stay here again!
We had a great time for our first trip to Puerto Rico. The apartment was very clean, plenty of towels, toiletry, cooler and beach chairs provided. It's located on the beach as advertised
and is within walking distance to restaurants and bars. It was mostly quiet at night. The property is secure and we felt safe during the visit. Hector is awesome and responds quickly. We would definitely stay here again!

On the beach
The location was excellent, just a short stroll away from the beach. The most challenging aspect of reaching the beach was dealing with the lock box. Despite entering the correct code, the box would often jam, delaying its opening for several minutes. Otherwise; the supermarket was in walking distance and restaurants were in walking distance. The condo was clean and we never experienced any noise at night. The bed was comfortable and the a/c was great. We enjoyed our stay.
Check in process was seamless. The property was as described. It had regular lights and blue lights which I thought was just so cute. Bathroom is small so I would avoid if I was over 250 pounds but outside of that it’s great. Beach is literally steps away from property. Great price and great experience.
What a great place to stay. The location is perfect. Its small but efficient, you need nothing but food if you chooae to cook while your there. Hector is great, super helpful and very responsive if you should have a question or issue. I would love to stay here again, and hopefully in the near future I will! Thanks again !!!!
Overall studio 102 is awesome. Very Clean and modernize. I recommend all couples to stay. I will definitely be back. Host was very professional and courtesy and gets back to you ASAP with any questions you have. Just got to love it. To next time.

Not Happy
Property was clean, check in was not clear at all. Air conditioning quit, could not contact Mr Torres, therefore had to rent expensive hotel for two days. Overall property was fine. Just no way to contact owner.
Great place for 2 people that want to be close to the beach. Clean, modern, and has just about anything that 2 people need for a beach stay. Close to many restaurants within walking distance and a lot more points of interests just an Uber ride away. The place was very relaxing quaintly comfortable and Hector was a pleasure to deal with. The only thing that happens on occasion is some nightly noise. Being on the ground level cars park directly in front of the window and people congregate close by and are loud at night. As the parking area is covered the voices echo and make normal talking seem a bit louder. This does not happen nightly and didn’t deter from the place over all. I recommend this place highly

Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!
The first time I rent a vacation studio apt. for my parents and I'm so happy that everything went smooth from beginning to end. Hector made my parents feel comfortable, at ease and even greeted them at the apartment when they got there. My parents LOVED the apartment and they can't wait to stay again. Thank you so much Hector for always returning my calls and texting me back. Hopefully I'm able to meet you next time my parents stay at your place. I can't Thank you enough for making my parents stay a memorable one.
Take Care,
Erika
Nice studio apartment right on the beach. My wife and I enjoyed our 5 night stay. Very efficient use of 250 sq ft. The bed is comfortable, the shower is great and all of the renovations are very modern and sleek.
Parking can prove difficult at times, but if you're not renting a car this place is perfect. There's 26 parking spaces for guests inside the gate and over 50 rooms in the building. So you do the math. And being right on the public beach, street parking is highly competitive. So just keep that in mind.
Very efficient use of 250 sq ft. The bed is very comfortable, the shower is great and all of the renovations are very modern and sleek. I really appreciated the outdoor rinse station so as not to track in sand from the beach.
Loved the location. Aside from being right on the beach, its also very close to the airport but due to flight paths, we didnt even notice any kind of plane noise. The beach direction offers great views of the sunset over the ocean horizon. Decent restaurants within walking distance, but also very easy to Uber around further.
About 25 minutes from Old San Juan and an hour from Fajardo, which are where we scheduled our day trips for sightseeing and vacation activities.
We enjoyed our stay, and would absolutely return.
Le studio d'Hector est l'endroit idéal pour un séjour à Puerto Rico. Situé à quelques pas de marche de la plage, ainsi qu'à proximité des magasins, des restaurants et de l'aéroport. Le studio est très propre, confortable, sécuritaire et bien équipé. Hector est un excellent hôte, gentil et serviable, qui fournit des conseils et des recommandations locales ainsi que des réponses rapides à la communication. La plage est magnifique, l'eau turquoise est à température idéale, avec de belles vagues pour s'amuser sans être dangereuses. Les gens sont super gentils et accueillants... Bref, j'y retournerai certainement l'année prochaine.
Absolutely amazing location. You can Uber to most places for five to $10. Tons of restaurants are in walking distance. Literally steps away from the beach. Bottom level so no steps. Very clean condo. Nice and cozy. The host was amazing.

About the host
Hosted by Hector L Torres
I was born here in PR, but grew up in NY. Currently retired, after working in Wall Street for a 500 Fortune Company and for 35 years. I always wanted to return to my place of birth and so I moved back in 2005. Still have a place in Long Island, NY because I have family and friends there.
Why they chose this property
Although, We have a house, we decided to acquire this property because of its location. Isla Verde. One of the best urban beaches in the world. A very safe and active neighborhood. Also, love the fact that there are many English speaking owners that live in the neighborhood. In addition, the many venues within walking distance, as well as, 24 hour supermarkets and restaurants. Just like NY. Hehe!
What makes this property unique
We love staying in the studio, when not short renting because of the 25 steps to the beach. The amazing sunsets and the cool breezes from the beach, makes for a perfect evening walk. Also, being a walking distance to the El San Juan, The Ritz Carlton and the Sonesta and a few other Hotels, makes it perfect to meet people from all over the world. Platos Restaurant, Metropol and Las Canarias Deli are a short walk away as well, as many others, makes it perfect for not cooking while on vacation.
