“Excellent Group Getaway Spot” We stayed here recently during a company retreat to Puerto Rico and used this house as our main gathering spot. Diana was extremely accommodating and helpful/ always available to answer questions. The home was beautiful and spacious with many different areas for group gatherings. The house is fully stocked with games and towels and anything you could think of. Diana recommended us a chef who cooked for us the entire weekend we were there. All in all, it was a phenomenal experience. I would absolutely recommend!

“Awesome condo for a week's rental!” We rented the condo for a week and had an amazing time! Tony (owner) was extremely helpful with the reservations, and was extremely responsive to any requests/concerns we had while we were there -- he did a great job making sure our stay was to our liking. The condo felt like home from our very first night! Everything was in great condition, and the apartment was well-stocked with towels, linens, games, sports equipment, and even some spices to cook with. The kitchen was extremely modern and both the washer/dryer worked well. The balcony provided us with an amazing view of the bay (we were able to watch the sunrise right from the balcony!) and we used the hammock and rocking chairs extensively! We very much enjoyed renting the condo, as opposed to staying in a hotel, because it allowed us the flexibility to cook some of our own meals. Each of the bedrooms has an aC unit, which was a nice touch after spending a long day exploring the island. The Penamar Ocean Club is located in a convenient location and has a beautiful campus - landscaping is very nicely done. We used the infinity pool, the smaller pool with the waterslide, and the tennis court all the time! Fajardo is a nice town and is located 45 min east of San Juan, 25 min away from El Yunque, 20 min from Luquillo Beach (maybe the nicest beach we visited during our entire trip), and 5 min from the Ferry port to Vieques. Just a heads up, please look up and book any activities you may wish to do (especially kayaking in Biobay) on your vacation several weeks in advance because everything will be booked!! We wished we had known this before our trip.

“Great Downtime in San Juan” Unit was perfect for a getaway week in San Juan. We were on the beach every day which provided warm water, sun, and shade. Condo was perfect size for us, and on 15th floor very safe, quiet, and private. Had everything we needed, washer-dryer, etc. Building employees very courteous and helpful. Variety of restaurants and supermarket within walking distance. We did not have to rent a car. We ate breakfast and lunch in condo, then ate dinner out every day. Pool deck is beautiful and health club a big plus. Overall great place to relax, chill out, and enjoy the ambiance.

“An amazing and relax time.” We as a family love the time that we had in the villas at Aquatika. The place was beautiful, very clean and manicured. The owner was available to us at anytime. We would definitely do Aquatika again.

“Beautiful condo and beach!” The pictures that are posted don't do this place justice! The condo is just perfect for a couple or those with a few children. It was very clean and beautifully decorated inside. We really enjoyed watching the tame birds come up to us, and the lizards and iguanas in the yard. The building itself is located right next to the beach. It's only a minute walk to the beach! We pretty much had our own private beach everyday. I don't know where everyone was, considering it was spring break. If you like peace, quiet, and just pure relaxation without a lot of tourists or spring-breakers, this is the place for you. It was so nice to sleep with the windows open at night and hear the ocean waves. The weather was so perfect, we never had to put the air on. Maria, the owner, communicated well and was accommodating. The El Yunque rainforest is only a 10-minute drive and is very worth the trip! I would say that the only negatives were that the restaurants nearby were overpriced with poor quality food. The food was extremely bland but edible. I don't know if we just hit the wrong restaurants or if "Authentic Puerto Rican" food always tastes like this. The only restaurant remotely good was "Ritchie's," which was completely open and located on a hilltop overlooking the ocean. It was absolutely gorgeous, and the service was great. Another negative was that there was no where to go in this area for night life, such as nice outdoor bars or beach tiki bars and grills. We just kept wondering where everyone was considering it was spring break. Perhaps this isn't the happening part of the island. We even drove down the street to the Wyndham Hotel and Casino, and there was hardly anyone there either. All in all, the cute condo and stunning, quiet beach and beautiful weather was worth the price of the trip! Would highly recommend this place if that's what you're looking for.

“A Good Choice for a Delightful Stay in Eastern Puerto Rico” We rented it for a month in January 2014 and liked it a lot. We would consider renting it again. The neighborhood is interesting, quaint, safe and clean as well as a little rough around the edges and not exactly neat and pretty. The condo building itself is isolated by walls on all sides, security gates, and double locked hallway entry doors. The parking and public areas are well lit. In January, during the week, it can be very quiet - only two or three other occupied apartments in the building. On weekends, it gets a little busier and sometimes a little loud. The unit faces the ocean on the second floor of a three story building, less than 20 feet from a seawall so the sound of the waves crashing is always present. The condo is comfortable. The beds are large and firm. The living room couches are nice and soft. The eating and sitting areas are also comfortable as are the balcony chairs. The condo is well equipped. In addition to bedding, bathroom towels, cooking utensils, a refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and cooktop, china and glassware, it has books, Dvds, a blender, toaster oven, toaster, beach chairs, beach towels, sunscreen, insect repellant, beach toys and boogie boards, paper towels, candles, cleaning products and kitchen towels. It has a single 32" flat screen TV in the living room, a DVD player, Dish network satellite TV and a 1 Mb\S cable internet with wifi. The water supply is clean and plentiful. Electric power is consistent and reliable. The owners provided helpful directions from the airport as well as general support. They were both pleasant and responsive. A short walk on the beach leads to a river and a view of the mountains. To the East is the public beach of Luquillo, behind the strip of little beach restaurants called Kioscos. Beyond this beach is the stunning, clean and well maintained Monserrate Balneario beach. Surely this must be one of the best beaches on the east coast of Puerto Rico.

“Great location, great hosts!” Gianluca greeted us in the rain, late at night and showed us around the apartment. Him and Solmari were both very friendly and their kids and dog are all very friendly as well. We had no problems at all with our stay, the place is perfect for what we were looking for. The yard is great to hang out in and read or chat, the plants and trees alone can occupy quite a bit of time just to observe if you like that sort of thing. It's a really great place to sit back and relax. Our apartment was fantastic, everything you need to cook meals was there. Our bed was comfy and there was lots of storage for all of our stuff as we were staying for two weeks. Everything was clean and we got fresh linens every week. There wasn't a full sized couch, just a chair that's shown in the picture but we weren't planning on spending too much time at home anyways. The guest book and suggestion booklet were great for recommendations. The location was amazing. There's a supermarket around the corner, the beach is a couple blocks walk, and you have a choice of a few bus routes as well. When we wanted to go to Condado or Old San Juan we hopped on T5,53 ($0.75) or the random free green bus. You might have to wait for a while but bussing is cheap! Quite a few great places for eats. Acapulco was amazing, the best tacos we've ever had. Kasalta was good for breakfast or cheap lunch, lots of pastries. Inca Chicken is a great deal for dinner. La B de Burro is also a good option for lunch or dinner. Many great places and all within a 15 minute walk. I can't really think of anything that we didn't like. There was some loud music pumping at night from a ways away but it always calmed down before 11. We were always super tired so it didn't really bother us anyways. All in all, it was a great stay. The location, hosts and apartments can't be beat. Thanks so much to Solmari and Gianluca for sharing their home with us!

“Absolutely Valuable Treasure” This rental is very beautiful, well-kept, and probably perfectly located in Puerto Rico. Close to everything you could need and short drives from San Juan, Fajardo, El Yunque National Rainforest, and about 15 great beaches.

“The Full Package - Beach, Rainforest, Nightlife, and huge House” Huge space - larger and nicer than I thought it would be. Full kitchen opening into large dining room, separated by a half-wall from the main living room. Perfect for a large group / family that wants to spend time together. 3 air conditioned bedrooms and 2 bathrooms made privacy and sleeping more than comfortable. Outdoor kitchen with bar window opening into the outdoor patio (with nice furniture) is perfect for entertaining! House is on the beach. A "resort-style beach" (very fine sand, waves crashing on the shore) is a short walk (1/2 mile?) along the shore. The beach in front of the house has slightly rougher sand with a vast wading shelf and tide pools full of underwater plants and sea life. As an avid snorkeler and biologist, this was the highlight. Tropical fish, crabs, and shell-hunting galore with crystal-clear water. Just a 45-minute drive from downtown San Juan and adjacent to the El Yunke National Forest area, it is ideal for laying out on the beach or hiking and high adventure challenges during the day and going out at night. Get local flavor at the Loquillo Beach Kioskos (#25 is the best). Friendly locals in the nearby town with "touristy" shops, local food places, bars, and post office. Neighbors are friendly but keep to themselves. Owners/manager very responsive to what few problems we had. We had trouble with the gate and a repairman was there to fix it within hours. After the initial orientation, we thought of questions during the week (Can we hang a hammock? How do we get the ice-maker to work? Etc.) and got immediate responses in all cases.

“Nice and tranquil” The apartment was clean, comfortable. The close beach is right behind the condo which was something I loved. The supermarkets are close by, and if you wanted fast foods they were just across the street. Also if you needed the bus was right in front or if you needed a cab always one around. The hotels all walking distant to go dance or eat. I felt safe. 24 hour security great. All in all I would recommend to stay here. I will be coming again.

“Beautiful Home, Beautiful owners. Would stay again in a heart b” Myself, my husband and another couple stayed in this home for 3 days. We were pleasantly surprised that the home looked as beautiful as the pictures we were shown. The home comfortably fit two couples. Each couple had their own bedroom with an air conditioner. The owners do a wonderful job of keeping the home in perfect order and ready for visitors. The owners are so nice and accommodating. They made us feel at home, showed us where to go. They even had a book printed out showing attractions with pamphlets of services and points of interest. I could not have ask for a better home to stay in. If you want to get away from the usual hotel/motel. I highly recommend renting this home. It was walking distance from the beach and lots of food choices. It is a short cab ride or bus ride from Old San Juan, the airport and the cruise ship terminal. The only thing I would change was the beds. They were a bit uncomfortable but we still got a good night's sleep.
