Spacious Villa

The villa was very spacious for our group of 10. It was cleaned and in great condition with renovated kitchen and bathrooms. Having a pool table provided great entertainment, and the accessible beach being only a 2 minute drive down the hill was great. The pool is right accross the parking from the front door, and we enjoyed having our morning coffee out on the balcony listening to the birds everyday. There are plenty of restaurants close by (you'll need a car), and the bakery and icecream shop in the main road leading to the resort were a hit. We ate at Nativa at the Kioskos, and the food was delicious with great service. We really enjoyed staying at this villa despite not having an ocean view. The golf and mountain views were pretty and relaxing. Vanessa was very attentive and easy to reach. Thanks for sharing your villa with us!

Family Vacay

The unit and resort were really great. Vanessa was so very responsive to our every need-- to supplying games for expected rainy days, to helping us try to work out glitches in AC, and even bringing over glasses. Unfortunately, the hot water situation wasn't cleared up in one of the bathrooms and it seems from previous reviews this is a long standing problem.

You should stay here!

I have to say that the hosts were so personable and friendly. Went way, way, way beyond to make sure we were happy. The location of the unit within the larger resort area was good and we could walk to the beach club. But the semi-private pool was so luxurious. Restaurants and groceries were not far. El Yunque is so close!

We had a wonderful stay. Vanessa was super helpful and fun to talk with. The view was gorgeous and the pool was clean and right next to the apartment. The apartment slept the 10 of us comfortably. The mattresses are surprisingly comfortable and high quality. We loved the pool table too! We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Our Anniversary Nightmare

First of all we chose this place for the pool table and it had 4 bathrooms. We get there and was told that unit was not available due to it flooding and we were given another unit. Not what we wanted but overall satisfied. The host was gracious enough to give us a credit for the inconvenience. We stayed in the unit 3 days. On the 3rd day water was gushing like a faucet from the ac unit. This of course had nothing to do with the unit or the host. There was work being done outside and the roof guys were power washing the roof. Vanessa came right away and offered to put us in another (upscale) unit. She came right away with her son and helped us repack all of our belongings and moved us to this beautiful villa where we spent the rest of our vacation (7 days total) I will say this in spite of all the bs Vanessa was VERY apologetic, helpful, attentive and just a phone call away. She went above and beyond to make our stay a comfortable and enjoyable vacation and I will definitely stay again.

4 stars

Pros: location is great in gated community by the Wyndham hotel, 2-minute drive to beach, 10-15 minutes to El Yunque rain forest, etc. All bathrooms appear to have been recently updated along with kitchen. Cons: we didn't have hot water in 2 of the 4 showers but managed by just using the 2 that had warm water. We also had an issue with the door lock that ended up taking some time to resolve. We couldn't find some basic necessities like dish towels or pot holders which made cooking a bit awkward. The exterior of these units definitely needs some work. It appears that they've been pretty battered by hurricanes and time. I think we'd stay in this area again if we had the chance but might hope some minor improvements are made to this particular unit.

very nice place to stay.

It was a beautiful place. The host was amazing very responsive and helpful. They gave us a lot of very helpful information like great places to dine, and visit. The place also came equipt with everything that you would need, like beach chairs, and coolers, to floating toys, and washer and dryer. There was construction going on at the property which was a little inconvenient because we were asked to park really far from the property for one of the days, and the pool was dirt because of the work from the roof, and the front of our door was muddy because of the work, but the host did contact the property and we were moved to a closer parking spot.They also had other pools a little further away from our place but just as beautiful for us to enjoy. besides that very little hiccup, my family very much enjoyed our selves. The host were really great and we would def stay again. Thank you for being super great to my family and I and hope to do it again real soon.

Great vacation Villa for Large Family

Cima was a very welcoming and responsive villa owner. He met us at checkin and gave us very useful information about the surrounding areas and what places to visit from the perspective of a local. His place was clean and very spacious. Our family of 12 had plenty of room to spread out. It was very helpful to have 4 full bathroom for getting ready in the mornings or taking showers at night. The pool table was very entertaining for evenings after a long day at the beach or rain forest. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would rent this villa again if we are back in Puerto Rico.

Fantastic resort

A huge, well equipped, immaculately clean unit in a fantastic resort with pools and a beach. The host was incredibly friendly and helpful. Comfy beds; plenty of hot water; balcony with a view of the grounds; pool table; great wifi; four bathrooms! Only thing to know is the drive from the resort's main gate to the unit itself is long (~10 minutes), which you just need to factor in if you're going to be coming and going a lot. This was a great place for our family stay, and we would be delighted to stay here again. Highly recommended!
