A Rare Beachfront Experience in Luquillo, Puerto Rico -
Wake up to the sound of waves and the ocean just steps from your backyard. This condo offers a rare experience in Luquillo, Puerto Rico â the shoreline is so close youâll feel like youâre on a cruise, surrounded by sea breezes, openâwater views, and the calming rhythm of the Atlantic.

Eve and her husband were wonderful! Communication was great. Place is adorable, very clean, of course great view. They were doing a little work in upstairs unit, and super conscientious about noise. Toilet issue fixed immediately. Great hosts!
We were very blessed to be returning guests to this beautiful property. Everything was absolutely perfect- from check in, to communication, to the amenities. We cannot say enough! This trip was a Christmas present to ourselves and our family. We will have these memories forever and are grateful to our hosts for making it possible.
Our family had a great 2 day stay at this property. The location was great being able to walk to the kiosks and beach. 10/10 would recommend and stay again.
Upon arrival, host communicated clearly and timely about how to enter and was always available if we had any questions. Our stay was wonderful and relaxing! We especially enjoyed opening the glass doors all the way for the breeze, view, and sound of the waves. It was so convenient to walk right out to the water and we especially enjoyed sunbathing and swimming right there. The condo was well appointed with plenty of blankets, towels, kitchen tools, etc. walk to beach and kiosks, and a short drive to rainforest hikes and activities.
I recently stayed at this property and had a wonderful experience. The kids especially loved the outdoor hammock, and we all enjoyed the stunning ocean view. Communication with the host was seamless, and the check-in process was simple and well-documented. The reliable Wi-Fi and convenient, safe parking further enhanced our stay. Highly recommended for a relaxed, enjoyable getaway!
We enjoyed our stay at this property. The view was outstanding and maximized by the set up of the living area with a wall of windows. The master bed was comfortable, and the other beds were okay. The kitchen though was not designed for eating in. Important note: there is NO oven, which limits what you can cook. I think that could be helped at least with a convection microwave oven. While it is not a deal breaker that there is no dishwasher, there arenât enough dishes for more than one meal for the group (and if you filled the beds with people, youâd cut it close on one meal). That would be an easy fix thoughâthereâs room for more dishes. Another note: in the winter, the water covers the beach at the building all day. There are lots of great beaches nearby though, even in walking distance for kids. The location was convenient and felt secure, and the other guests in the complex were friendly and respectful of each other. There is lots to do nearby. I would recommend this property as a good place to stay.
This was our second trip to Puerto Rico and our second time staying at this rental. We stay in a lot of vacation rentals throughout the US and this is by far the best. The hosts are extremely accommodating and are a quick text away in the event that you need anything. The location is absolutely stellar, just steps away from the beach and a quick drive to some of the most amazing beaches weâve ever been to. The beach directly behind the unit is inaccessible during early March due to high tide, but there are other access points within a short walk. If we could wake up with the view offered with this stay every day, we would!
Charming and clean in a very nice oceanfront location
We found the apartment to be as charming and clean as the photos indicate with a fantastic oceanfront view. Be aware the room with the bunks has one bunk and a Murphy bed that almost touches the bunk when opened. There is no beach access, it's a seawall and and the waves splash all the way to o the wall. Location is just okay, apart from the view. Easy short drive to Luquillo Beach and the kiosks.
This was a fantastic place, the most beautiful view to wake up to every morning, and close to many different beaches, kiosks, and restaurants. Aida and Evy were super responsive and helpful with suggestions. This is a wonderful place, and I would like to book it again without hesitation.
Quaint and cozy apartment that is literally on the beach. Location is a bit dicey but gated access to the apartment. Clean and well furnished. Overall, the accommodations exceeded my expectations. Evy and Aida were very responsive and always timely in getting back to me. Thanks for a great stay!!
This apartment was home away from home for my family of 3. Morning walks on the beach with my coffee was the perfect start to my day. In between Paradise beach and Playa Fortuna. All amenities of home provided. Beach chairs, boogie boards, towels and an outdoor shower to rinse the sand away. Full kitchen, WiFi, AC in all rooms. Washer and dryer. Short walk to SolEl restaurant for breakfast/ brunch, try the coquito French toast. While enjoying the beach take a short beach walk to Carabali Beach house for daiquiris, pastelillos with beef and sweet plantains. Short drive to Amigos grocery which has ALL you need for cooking, bottled water, fruit and snacks. I recommend this location to anyone wanting a local living vibe. No tourists so you have the beach all to yourself.
This condo was perfect for us! The backyard ocean was amazing to cool down in after visiting the rainforest or kiosks. Great location, beautiful beach decor, with an amazing porch that we used every evening. The hosts were very informative and gave many activity and restaurant suggestions. If we come back to this area, we will definitely stay here again.
The condo was clean, comfortable and perfect location. We were right by the Luquillo beach and kiosks. Close drive to the rainforest. Close to our boat charter in Fajardo. The hostess and cohost were amazing. Many recommendations given. We had everything we needed for the beach. The tide was lower on our first day so we had a great time on the beach access at the condo. Checkin was easy. AC was cold. We loved it and would return again. Outside of building is a little wore and neighborhood doesnât look the best but nothing to worry about. It was quiet and we felt perfectly safe. Gated condo. We will be back!
Stayed with 5 of my friends and we had a wonderful time. Location was close to the rainforest and Icacos where we wanted to go. Staff was amazing and checked in on us daily. If we are vet in the are would definitely give them a call again.
We were a family of 4, 15 years old and 9 years old. We loved it here. 1st floor apartment that was super clean and convenient. We loved the private beach, yes it got âsmallâ during high tide but the kids and us loved it. So many folks say it was sketchy neighborhood, we felt safe. Everything was available and convenient for cooking, sleeping and relaxing! We we pleasantly surprised when we arrived to have sandwiches and water, snacks.. we arrived late and it was just a pleasant surprise! Thank you. The only helpful tool would have been to have the washer/dryer hookup for convenience. While the rental clearly states it is not, washing towels or drying towels âin houseâ would be convenient. Otherwise we loved it here and would definitely stay again!!
Everything was amazing...from the cleanliness to the location to the property manager and extra touches. Truly unforgettable experience from start to finish. I will definitely rebook for my next trip to PR. So glad I chose here instead of a resort!
The place is located in a nice secure area. We had a great time exploring and swimming in and around the beach. The manager was available every time I called and was so helpful and gracious. We had an awesome time and a breathtaking view.
Great place. Great views. Great location. Great hosts. Not much more to say, it's just like it looks like in the pictures. Very clean. Location was perfect for everything we wanted to do. If you like the pictures and the price, there's no downside.
We loved waking up to the sounds of the ocean each morning! The host and property manager were very attentive and thoughtful. There were 4 great beach chairs that we used each day. The beach is about a 15-20 minute walk which was very helpful on the weekend days when the traffic at the beach and food kiosks was crazy.
We loved it here and would definitely return!
My husband and I had been to the Luquillo area of PR 2 years ago. We were very excited to return this Spring Break/mid-March with our 16-year-old b/g twins.
The property is accurately described and adequately suited our family's needs. We typically made breakfast at the condo and enjoyed coffee on the veranda. The kitchen has a cook top, but no stove. This is PR and you don't need it on vacation anyway! I simply wanted to point this out.
One bath towel and beach towel are provided for each guest. All the usual supplies are on site. And Mirnalis is one text away for help, suggestions, needs and she is simply wonderful. If you have a question, reach out. She is there to help. We were grateful for her assistance at check in, as noted. I appreciate her running through the basic in person.
We loved Chacky's because of the location! To get to the kiosks and beach, go LEFT, down the street through the residential area as far as you can. Go until you hit the sports field, cross through it and you are at the Kiosks or can walk on the beach. My husband and I walked that way most morning and took a quick dip in the Balneario Luquillo beach area before returning.
Go the RIGHT, walk to the basketball court, and you can enter another beach area. Go down the beach further and you will quickly hit the "Beach House". Great drinks and great empanadas here! They close around 5, so go there for a HH cocktail.
Now...Keep going down the beach, cross the shallow river, keep walking around the bend and you will come to the Wyndham Resort. You can walk up from the beach. Dining and drinks available there too.
With 16 year olds we also walked to Vagon for dinner. Go for the fish tacos for SURE. I also recommend the pinchos sold many days just up the street, where the road meets the Highway 3. $3 each, chicken or pork.
For swimming and a beach day, we drove the short distance and parked at Luquillo beach. Load those chairs provided in the trunk and enjoy the day (MARCH guests).
We came from cold, snowly MN and had a great time with our teens.
( * I understand ocean conditions change with the season in PR. Please note this review is for mid-March. There were Rip Tide warnings daily. Be aware of the conditions and be safe. And of course, that has nothing to do with the condo, but I say it as I noted "swimming" which may not be deemed safe my some.)
When we got to the property the views took our breath away was so much better than the online pictures , we could walk right out to the ocean from our veranda and sit in the lawn chairs to just take in the beautiful ocean sounds and colors, its so peaceful and private that it makes you forget any worries you might of had ! We couldn't of asked for a better hostess than Mirnalis she is so nice and makes you feel like your part of her family the way she made sure all our wants and needs were met, she not only had left a bottle of amazing tasting wine at the condo but the best puerto rico coffee I've ever had ! The kiosks are really close to the condo with there authentic Puerto Rican foods and drinks but our favorite place to go for dinner was a local place called Vigon for amazing fish tacos:) Luquilla beach is beautiful and in the same area as the kiosks so after eatting at one of the many venues you can buy a Pina Colada from the kiosks and take a walk on the beach! The day before we were to head back home Mirnalis stopped by to give us fresh baked bread and gifts to take home and did far more than was expected!! We highly recommend this condo and you won't be disappointed! :)
Great hosts, really nice people, clean unit. But things a renter should know...
First, the hosts are really great - such nice and helpful ladies. The unit was clean and some sweet gifts were left. It's close to El Yunque, and a short drive to the docks in Fajardo.
However, future renters should know a few things:
The washer/dryer were locked and not allowed to use,
They wrap the mattresses in plastic, very uncomfortable,
The master AC unit was too loud to sleep with it on,
Lots of rules, even extra $$ for using AC too much.
Sketchy neighborhood (not walkable).
Also, no fault of the hosts, the beach in the stretch of Luquillo that this unit resides has eroded, and the waves hit the sea wall continuously (so it's a view-only beach front). Some homes have actually collapsed into the sea along this stretch.
we had a wonderful stay and property manager was great.
My daughter and I fished from property every morning and swam local beaches too. PR is blessed with some of gods best work. However the storms have left parts of the Island struggling to recover.Help this struggle and visit this paradise.
