Amazing!

This property is amazing! We had 14 people stay (7 adults and 7 kids) and we were never cramped. The open living room, kitchen, dining area was a great place to hang out, but then we could escape to our room for privacy. The pool area was very nice and the kids lived in the pool. The house is 3 blocks from a beautiful beach which was an easy walk. They provided beach chairs but you can also rent chairs and umbrellas right at the beach. If we return to San Juan, we will book again!

Perfect Spring Break Getaway

Family Vacation

The house was perfect for our family. The location was very good. We enjoyed going to the beaches in the morning and playing in the pool after nap time. The littles loved the space and the swing chairs and hammock. The kitchen had all appliances, even an espresso machine, which my kids loved. Loved having a washer/dryer that worked. The restaurants around the area were all very good. One thing I would suggest is a wagon to carry chairs/toys to the beach. There are also two pack and plays in the house. I wish we had known that beforehand. We rented one, which we didnt use. Its a wonderful home for a large family. Thanks for a great week.

Review for “Luxury” House in Carolina San Juan

I recently stayed at a house in Carolina, San Juan, that was advertised as a luxury rental, but it was far from it. Here’s a detailed account of my disappointing experience:1.Kitchen Issues: The kitchen was in bad shape. A lot of the appliances were either broken or barely functional, making meal prep a hassle. On top of that, there was a noticeable lack of good cookware, and the limited dishes and glasses provided were insufficient and mismatched. We did get a new coffee maker several days into the stay. 2.Pest Problem: The house was overrun with flies and mosquitos, making it extremely uncomfortable. The doors were not properly sealed, allowing bugs to come and go freely. It was frustrating to deal with this issue in a place labeled as “luxury.”3.Cleanliness Concerns: The house had clearly not been cleaned well. There was dust and dirt in corners, and the cleaning products left behind smelled toxic and unpleasant—not the natural, fresh products you’d expect in a high-end rental.4.Backyard Misrepresentation: The backyard was the biggest letdown. It looked nothing like the pictures. The stones were dirty, there was no grass, and the trees were untrimmed, creating an overgrown, neglected atmosphere. The bug problem was even worse outside, making the space completely unusable.Overall, this rental was a massive disappointment and did not live up to its “luxury” label. I would not recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and clean vacation stay.

Great spot to explore San Juan/El Yunque

We stayed in this house as a family of 5 and had way more space than we needed. The bedrooms are large. Upon arrival there were some welcome fruit/snacks which I greatly appreciated as a mom traveling with three young children all day. We cooked breakfast at the house every morning and the kitchen had everything we needed (note: there were not basic spices/seasoning like salt, pepper etc.). There were lots of beach chairs and some sand toys, our family enjoyed the lively beach a mere 90 second walk away. We felt very safe walking to the beach and would also walk and get coffee every morning. We also walked to dinner at Platos one night which was enjoyed by all. We went and visited el Morro and El Yunque for day activities.

New Year’s Couples Trip

Great location and great unit. The manager was very responsive and attentive to our needs and answered critical questions when the island’s blackout occurred. Having the automatic generator was essential and without issues and our party of 7 had a great time. Perfect location to Isla Verde beach. Highly recommend!

Lovely Home

We absolutely enjoyed our stay! There was a group of 10 of us who stayed and this property checked all the boxes. The home is spacious and the backyard is an absolute oasis. Ruben the property manager was 10/10! So helpful and communicative! The acs are ice cold and kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, and utensils for cooking. We are already talking about coming back soon.

Villa Catalina PR

Nine adults from our family stayed at Villa Catalina for a family wedding in Old San Juan. The property was perfect for our 4 day stay! It was super close to the airport and an easy Uber ride into OSJ. It had everything we needed, including coolers and beach chairs. The outdoor living area was spacious, with plenty of seating for everyone. Ruben was quick to respond to any questions or needs we had during our stay. I would highly recommend this property.

Great property for large groups with good location

Annual friends trip (party of 9) was a big hit with this property. Clean, fresh modern decor. Air con units in all rooms. Beach towels available. Coolers, beach chairs were great to have for beach day. We rented an umbrella for shade on the beach for $10. The pool was great add to end the day. Used the grill one evening for a nice friends dinner on the beautiful patio. Walking distance to casino and bakery for morning coffee and pastries. Multiple car rental places near by. We rented a car to go to El Yunque, Zipline. Grocery store 5 minute drive. Property looks out of place for its surroundings but felt safe and group had no issue with that. Have stayed at other rentals where pantry was full of condiments/spices. We purchased our own (no big deal really. Just being hyper critical now. Some hooks behind the doors would be helpful to hang wet towels) Laundry facilities in garage with detergent pods available. Overall, great property and attentive property manager. We would definitely return to this home.

Bachelorette weekend

Our group had a great stay at this property. It was clean, Ruben was very helpful, responsible and accommodating during our stay. There was plenty of space for our group of 11. We did cook a big dinner one night - for future guests I would recommend bringing your own spices, olive oil, basics etc.. there were also limited serving plates but not a huge deal at all!

Extended family vacation, grandparents, parents and grandkids.

The patio with all areas to relax in was excellent. The living room furniture was difficult for grandparents (me) to get in and out of. The number of bathrooms and bedrooms met our needs. The drains were a bit slow but we made do. Not a deal breaker. Appliances were excellent. We did not use dishwasher. An easy walk to the beach. It was nice to have a garage and parking space. The host furnishing beach towels and chairs was a plus.

Family Vacay

This was a great place to accommodate 14 people, and call home for 5 days, the check in process was great the host had someone there waiting for us upon check-in, he walked the home with us, showed us where everything was, and upon check out was also at the home to make sure everything went well. Definitely the place to stay.

I grew up in this neighborhood with the beach and ocean as our background. As we grew up, we spent our free time doing all water related avctivities such as swiming, water skiing, fishing,
sailing, bike riding, and utilizing the many amenities the local hotels had to offer.
I can also offer this unique experience to my guests in a luxurious, large and comfortable property, just steps from one of the nicest beaches in the area.

Why they chose this property

I bought this property mostly because of its location , right next to Isla Verde's beach, its beauty and layout, with great backyard , terrace and pool area, and finally great comfort.

What makes this property unique

The unique benefits of this property is that in the city of metro San Juan, you have a luxurious and beautiful, large, professionally decorated property right next to one of the best urban beaches in the world, in touristy Isla Verde, walking distance to everything that you might need for your perfect vacation.
