For us the property (gated community) was located perfectly. Not only we enjoyed the pool surrounded by stunning views of El Yunque and the ocean, but the house is within 10/15 mins drive from Ceiba (airport/ferry to Culebra or Vieques) and Coabras (bio luminescent bay; water taxi to Cayo Icacos or Palomino), a 5/10 mins drive from the Luquillo Beach and kiosks and about 15 mins from El Yunque; within a 5 mins drive from supermarkets and other necessities (CVS, Walgreens, Pet stores, gas stations) etc. San Juan is about 45 to an hr drive depending on the time of the day.
The house is high on a hill so it’s breezy in the afternoons.
Kitchen is very well equipped, and appliances are good quality, which we appreciated.
Bedrooms are spacious and comfortable each with a A/C split unit (important for us from So Fla) Warning: the sound of Coquis may drive you insane the first night, but you’ll quickly get used to them and appreciate PR’s National pride.
The neighborhood is quiet and friendly, we went for long walks. You’re either going down or up on the steep streets in Hacienda Margarita, (very similar as you would in San Francisco) You can also see cows
grazing near by and pick up free mangoes from a box in front of a neighbor’s home.
If you want to relax doing nothing except play pool and read, this is your house, and if you want to do a lot, this is your house.
The owner Connie is great and always available to answer any questions.
