We're not located in the same building but on call in case of emergency.

AMAZING LOCATION! This condo-styled residence is located right on Isla Verde! Just steps from the beach (literally), Walgreens and CVS, many food options, a 24/7 grocery store, and multiple car rental companies. Ubers and taxis come regularly. It’s also located right next to a Casino, Foxwoods, and close to the main airport. It has an operable washer and dryer which is good for cleaning your beach clothes. Direct access to a beach with music, pineapple beverages, and water sports. Netflix is available with the guest's account info.

THE ACCESS TO THE POOL DECK IS INDEFINITELY CLOSED DUE TO STRUCTURAL RENOVATIONS AND WE DON’T HAVE AN OPENING DATE YET. The access to the beach remains normal.

Construction work is being done at the building every day from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm; therefore you may experience some noise at the apartment during those hours.

Beach chairs not provided. You can rent them at the beach for $7 per day.

Where To Go:
The ESJ Towers is located on one of Puerto Rico's finest beaches. Walking distance from major hotels, Hotel El San Juan, The Ritz Carlton San Juan, Embassy Suites, and Royal Sonesta. Supermarket Pueblo is also within walking distance (open 24 hours).

ENTREVINOS is also EXCELLENT across from CVS inside the small shopping mall, great ambiance from Thursday through Sunday, a great wine selection (basic bar drinks also.) many reasonably good bottles starting at $29

METROPOL
Walking distance makes a left out of the driveway, great Puerto Rican-Cuban rest, a huge menu, and live music at the bar.

MEAT MARKET
Inside The Fairmont El San Juan, next door is a restaurant with excellent steaks and sides. Make it a night and stay for live music in the lobby on Fridays and Saturdays.
This hotel also has a chic nightclub with GREAT music CLUB BRAVA, and a great atmosphere and you can walk there, it's next door!

El ALAMBIQUE
Funky beach restaurant bar with good food on Tartak St. where CVS is. Just walk towards the beach and make a left at the end.

For a taste of our famous fritters, go to the beach, at Pinones, a five-minute ride, open kiosks selling all manner of fried food cooked over a wood log, delicious! Try an Alcapurria.
MY FAVORITE for Latin and FRESH seafood is CAYO CARIBE, there's one in Condado,

On the way to OLD SAN JUAN
Ladi's for fresh fish is a short ride on the way to Old San Juan. Great view and is great for drinks and appetizers unless you are ordering a whole Lobster (STEAMED ONLY) or a whole Snapper (Fried only) You will be disappointed as they tend to overcook anything else, but the view is spectacular!

IN OLD SAN JUAN
BARRACHINA (where the Pina Colada was invented)
LA VERGUENZA is a real scene, with music and PR Street food, a must-see.
LA FACTORIA Party all night long! Seven rooms with music, and GREAT cocktails. Arrange for an Uber pick up in front or nearby as there are many bars in the area, big young adults area. Is every year in the top 50 bars in the world.

SANTURCE
LA PLACITA for bars nightlife and good restaurants, open late, how the locals party (safe).
CALLE CERRA in Santurce is a hot spot don't miss La Esquina Watusi (the most famous bar in that area).

GROCERY STORES/PHARMACY
Walking distance is PUEBLO Supermarket (open 24 hrs.), and you can expect to find the same items you find in the USA as well as liquor. It's a 10-minute walk, straight out of the building's driveway across the street to the end of the street. Make a right and it's at the end of the street, taking an Uber is a good idea if you are buying a lot.
Across from The Royal Sonesta, to the right of our building,(closer than CVS), there's a small grocery and liquor store, all walking distance from the apt. They also serve a great breakfast.

THE ACCESS TO THE POOL DECK IS INDEFINITELY CLOSED DUE TO STRUCTURAL RENOVATIONS AND WE DON’T HAVE AN OPENING DATE YET. The access to the beach remains normal from 7:00 am to 7:00 pm.

Construction work is being done at the building every day from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm; therefore you may experience some noise at the apartment during those hours.

Beach chairs not provided. You can rent them at the beach for $7 per day.

We've have experienced electricity failures in PR ultimately. The condo has a power generator for the common areas and elevators. We provide a battery lamp in case you need it. For information about the outage, you can visit Luma Energy website, service information, system status, and system update.

It was fine

The condo worked for our needs, having a base in San Juan while we explored different areas nearby. The description of the condo is fairly accurate. When I read reviews I want information that can help me manage my expectations, these were the points that stood out for us:Pros - Good location for walking to restaurants.The beach is behind the building, very close.The balcony is usable and you can see the ocean, good for sunrise.Both bedrooms are a nice size.Communication with host was good.Elevators are in good working order and fast.Designated parking was great.We only cooked breakfast in the condo and had what we needed to do so.There are beach chairs and an umbrella available for use.It’s nice to have access to the workout room. What we didn’t care for:2nd bathroom is small, as stated in description. There aren’t any hooks or working outlets. I brought my own hook for the bath towel that we used when showering.The airport is very close by; the plane noise during the week wasn’t too bad but increased during the weekend.Gate to beach access closed at 7 pm, no after dinner walks.The pool wasn’t open.The air conditional on the balcony is loud and hot. We turned off the air when using the balcony.

Excellent location and great communication

The unit was easy to locate, and it was great to have a dedicated parking spot. The common areas were very spacious. We were four adults and had plenty of living room and dining room space. Our favorite part was the balcony in the evening. We would hang out there and enjoy the view. The bedrooms were good sized as well. On the listing description, it says that the second bathroom is small. It is extremely small, but it was adequate for the two adults who shared it. Were all the finishes fancy and perfect? No, but honestly, the location, the spaciousness, and the overall feel made those things not matter to us. Communication with the property manager was excellent, if I were to come back to Puerto Rico, I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

My children and I were so pleased with our experience staying at the esj. The room exceeded our expectations—the rooms were big, everything was clean, beautifully decorated and was equipped with everything we needed. We will definitely book again in the near future.

Kinda nice

For the most part it was ok. The bathrooms were bad!! Not clean and in pretty bad shape. The smaller bathroom didn't have space to even leave a toothbrush. Showers were scary. Building was fallling apart. It had a nice balcony but you couldn't sit out there because the air conditioner was so loud and chunks of the building were coming off onto the balcony. I wouold expect a nicer place for all the money we paid for it. I wouldnt saty here again. We left early

Family holiday

Property was just as described and photographed. I’d add that the kitchen is good t and well appointed. Full size fridge with ice cube maker! Parking spot is very conveniently located just inside ramp with elevator just around the corner. We rented a car and drove to old San Juan one day. Beach by ESJ is just steps out of the lobby. Solid security at the ESJ. Host is excellent! Love to stay there again.

Everything described and more

This place was in the middle of everything. The place was very safe and clean. It was well equipped with every thing you may need. The property was right on the beach. It had a great view. The owner was very accommodating and responsive. Everything was well thought out for the guests. The kitchen was well stocked, even with some seasonings. There was also beach chairs, a cooler and umbrella, as well beach towels for beach going. Everything was convenient with parking space included. I have no complaints about the property. I and my family truly enjoyed ourselves and felt very comfortable and at home.

Profile

The online description indicates that there is a pool and bar. We stayed for five days and the bar was never open and the pool was under construction and has been for some time. The room was clean and the mattresses were comfortable. The half bathroom was quite small even for a child. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The only real downside was no pool and no bar.

We enjoyed the apartment because it was clean, cool, and comfortable. The parking spot was a perfect perk. The staff and security were helpful and easily accessible.

Property was not what was described

The owner was very communicative and responsive. However during our stay the pool was out of service and allegedly had been for a couple of years. The small bathroom and shower was extremely tight and a larger male would not fit. The hot water heater was messing up so there were cold showers every day. I notified the owner but someone could only come out during hours in which we had excursions planned. The beds were extremely uncomfortable and the place had a mildew smell.

Great stay is Isla Verde

We enjoyed our stay at this property. No complaints. Easy access to the beach. Check in process was simple and you did not need multiple key fobs to get in inside the unit. This was helpful when our party would split up for an evening. I would definitely stay in this unit again. Only downside, and not the unit owners fault whatsoever, the front desk staff told us the pool has been closed for two years. If having a pool is important to you, this may not be the rental for you.
