Quiet little town and neighborhood which was great for a relaxing vacation. The other attractions were still doable for us. Would definitely consider staying here again.

Quiet side of the island
The house was neat and clean and the host was very friendly and accommodating. Close access to everything you might need. The people in the area were super friendly and inviting. The only problem was that there weren’t enough plates and forks for my family of 8. There were some plastic ones provided though so we just made use of those. A great place to stay if you are looking for a more laid back, local stay. Just be aware that the beach here is more suitable for water sports than swimming…which was a fine change of pace for us!

Great family memories
This place is a hidden gem for a nice vacation away from the crowded areas but still convenient to our plans while visiting PR. The beach directly behind the property is a bit rocky, but the shore is great just a short walk away. It worked well for our family of nine. Multiple bedrooms and bathrooms. Ample parking for multiple vehicles.

Beautiful sunsets!
My family and I loved staying at Villa Del Sol. It’s right on the Caribbean Sea with a small patch of beach to enjoy. There is a larger beach area within walking distance. We enjoyed watching the wind surfers from the backyard as well. The home was perfect for our large group. Everyone had their own space and plenty of space to all gather together. Being able to open the downstairs up made up for how the weather was. Between the fans and the sea breeze, it was perfect! They were quick to answer any questions that arose during our stay. We will rent here again when we return to PR!

Pretty view, spacious home, a little warm
Had a fun experience! The home was spacious for our group of 7. The rooms had AC but the rest of the home didn’t so it made it uncomfortable to be home during the day/ night. There was a pretty view of the ocean each morning, a grill for BBQ’s, a kayak and a gated driveway. :) overall a good home.

Overall- Great Experience
Cons: -place was organized, however, it appeared to have not been deep cleaned. Also, maybe due to humidity and the place not being opened prior to our visit, it smelled bad. -the listing said 2 kitchens, we only found one. However, this was not a major problem. -beach was dirty. Even though is not the host’s fault, i will list it here since you should keep in mind that you may not be able to enjoy the water/beach. - additional to the amount charged for each night, you will also have to pay a fee per person when you exceed 4 people. I find it a little unfair. However, we complied and had a great time. Pros: -BEAUTIFUL setting. -VERY spacious house. -you will find ALL amenities that will make your stay very comfortable (e.g: grill, towels, kitchen utensils) -multiple bathrooms with showers. -safe neighborhood and quiet - there are kayaks and safety devices that you can use and WILL make your time much more fun and enjoyable. Overall, i will recommend because the setting was beautiful and very convenient for my family to be together and have a great time. Memories will be cherished forever.
