Great place to chill!

We so enjoyed our much needed rest and relaxation. The property was quiet and private. Sam is a great host and we pretended Sam’s dog “Bravo” was our vacation dog! They were both very sweet and welcoming! We loved falling asleep to the peepers and waking to the sunshine and enjoying coffee on porch as we’re overlooked the rain forest. Wonderful way to kick off our first trip to PR!

Amazing stay near the rain forest

This place was GREAT! Sam is probably the best VRBO host I've ever worked with. He was super friendly and had great communication. The place was awesome - what incredible views from the property, especially from the roof-top patio. The rooms were comfortable, and I really didn't mind not having A/C. It was warm in the mornings when the sun hit the rooms, but not too bad the rest of the day, and there were fans in the rooms which helped. We loved hearing the sounds of the forest at night too, mostly the coqui frogs. We used the outdoor kitchen a few time, which was nice and had enough of the basics to accommodate or needs. Bravo (the dog) was friendly too, and would lead us up the road, out of the neighborhood each day, stopping to aggravate the other dogs along the way! Would highly recommend this rental for anyone going to Puerto Rico.

Great Rental. A really special, unique spot!

The property was fantastic. The owner was awesome. He tended to all our needs and helped us find some great spots to explore! His dog was the best dog ever. He has every fruit tree imaginable. Very nice and leaves you alone when you want. Pool was great and the outside kitchen was super awesome. Highly recommended!!!

Paradise

Where to begin? We were in paradise. The view from the house is amazing, the outdoor kitchen is perfect and so much fun, the house itself is clean and spacious, and the owner is the most hospitable host we have ever met-a true gem. The cherry on top is Bravo, the host's sweet, sweet dog. BEST experience ever!
