Beautiful Condo
Review Submitted: September 7, 2009
Date of Stay: August 2009
The condo was absolute beautiful and everyone in my family enjoyed watching the ocean from the balcony. The view was spectacular. The home-like condo was ideal for our family of five. We were able to enjoy a relaxing breakfast before heading out on sightseeing adventures. Cooking dinners in the evening saved us from eating out every night. The grocery store was close by. We appreciated a relaxing swim in the condo bulding's swimming pool after a long day when going to the beach was too much effort. And the WiFi Internet access was a welcomed surprise!
My husband, a native Puerto Rican, planned most of the activities. We went to San Juan, Arecibo, and Guanica (on the South-side of the island). Closer to the condo, we enjoyed hiking to El Yunque, kayaking at night to the bioluminescent bay, horseback riding, and sailing from Puerto Del Rey to a great snorkling spot. With the beach so close, we had to modify husband's agenda to fit in more beach time and we spent a day at Balneiro de Luquillo, (cost $4 for the car load) a public beach with amenities. (Thank you, "G" for the beach chairs!)
The only negative is that the surrounding area is run-down which does not make a very good first impression. We did not walk the area at night but I felt comfortable walking around during the day. Everyone I met was friendly and spoke enough English for us to exchange pleasantries. (Although my husband speaks Spanish, I do not.) The corner bakery served delicious pastries. We would definitely stay here again.
