Perfect spot and location
We had a group of 7 stay here for a weekend to explore Antigua! Place was beautiful and had enough room for everyone. The pool is shared with neighbors but that didn’t bother us as we were able to make some new friends who were also from the states!

No fresh air in the land of eternal spring
We were dismayed to discover that upstairs window in this property had been bricked over. It would be illegal in the US to call a room with no sunlight or fresh air a bedroom. Photos of the exterior clearly showed second story windows which constitutes false advertising. In addition, one of the showers upstairs did not work at all and the other two shower heads only reluctantly dripped water. There were no towel bars in the bathrooms, not enough towels for each of the six of us. There was no shelf in the shower for soap or shampoo. The single hard pillow per person on an uncomfortable bed with ill fitting sheets did not make any of us happy. There was a lonely small and dinged up frying pan and plates and cups were chipped and bowls were almost non existent. All in all a very big disappointment, the first time this has happened with a Home Away rental.

Casa San Juan Amazing Place!!!!
The house was excellent it felt like home. Love that it was walking distance to almost everything in Antigua and the property is in a gated community that made us feel very safe. Flor is super nice as well as the staff, especially Michaela that took very good care of us in anything we need it. We would highly recommend this property and we will definitely try to come back!!!!

Wonderful experience in a beautiful place
This property is located in a very safety gated community, walking distance to almost all Antigua places and restaurants, the house has a beautiful design and is very clean and quiet. Has a downstairs room with king bed, 2 double bed rooms upstairs and two beds in one living room upstairs. Bathrooms worked good and kitchen had all we needed. The swimming pool is a great plus if you have kids. Thanks for the banana bread and the coffee!!!!

Glorious Retreat
I have rented in this gated community for one to two months for the last four- five years. I would not now rent anywhere else. It is central. It is safe. It is beautiful. I rented this particular property ( along with all four properties around the pool ) for family and close friends attending our daughters wedding. Everyone could not have been happier. This property allows you access to the pool while affording a little more privacy. The staff are truly wonderful. If I had to find a fault it would be a lack of hanging space for dresses- hardly worth mentioning.

Stunning home!
Casa San Juan was absolutely beautiful! We had everything we needed and felt so safe and comfortable. The property manager made sure to introduce herself and said to let her know if we needed anything. Everyone at the property was very nice and helpful. We met other families in the courtyard and community pool/hot tub (there are 4 units in the complex). We’d love to return with family and friends. We could all be together, but each have our own space. We felt safe walking everywhere, but enjoyed bringing a tuk tuk home in the evenings. We would highly recommend this property!

Beauty and comfort
The house is beautiful and very comfortable. We stayed with five other adults and had plenty of room. You couldn't ask for a better location. Everything is within walking distance. The staff makes the experience even better. They all were very warm and welcoming. We will definitely try to come back. We stayed an extra night because we loved it so much.
