Great house for family vacation
Beautiful place for a family vacation. We had everything we needed for an enjoyable vacation. Good central location made it easy for us to enjoy activities from Rincon to Fajardo. Check in was a breeze. We were promptly greeted, given the keys and a tour. Beds were comfortable. Everything was very clean and in good working order.We spent the majority of our time in the backyard and patio. Good pool but a bit difficult to get out of. Needs a ladder or an extra step to make it easierThe no-seeums are very active here so make sure you use the spray when sitting out sideThis place is a gem. We will definitely consider staying here again

Definitely Worth It!
This place was just what the doctor ordered. The neighborhood could be nicer. There are some rundown homes near by. The home is on a busy street so coming in and out of the parking area could be challenging. Once you close the gate, you feel secluded and safe. Now as far as the home itself, everything was great. It's a bit tight but our group of 10 was fine. It's nicely decorated and the AC in each room worked great. There is no AC in the common areas. Now, what you pay for is the yard and beach access. We spent most of our time on the outdoor patio and hammocks. The kids loved exploring on the beach and running in the yard. If your on the beach at dusk or dawn, spray yourself with bug repellent. There are sand fleas and they got my 11 year old bad, when she was out at 5:30am with her dad watching the sun rise. Disnt stop her from doing it again the next day. We grilled and had great family meals in the outdoor dinning area. The pool was perfect for our group and everyone enjoyed it. Iza the house manager was awesome and quick to respond to anything we needed. We will definitely recommend this place to family and will be returning when in P.R.

Paradise!
Paradise without even leaving the deck. Our family enjoyed a week at this cozy waterfront home. Compact rooms and the owners thought of everything to make your stay magical. We used the BBQ for dinners as this location was too beautiful to leave. We had plenty of towels and chairs and sand toys for kids. The pool waterfall kicks in daily at 930A offering a relaxing setting.We enjoyed the sandy beach just a few steps away, the surf was too strong for our grandkids but they enjoyed the pool.Mosquitos are abundant in the early evening so prepare with spray and clothing.Our only disappointment was to find they charge extra for use the washer/dryer. We stay in many VRBOs and have never come across this. As a luxury listing, this should be reconsidered. The neighborhood is quite rundown, but once you’re in the house, you will not see this. The grocery store is approximately a 15 minutes drive and casual restaurants within a couple miles.We highly recommend this home!

Backyard Oasis in Arecibo
Overall, we had a nice stay in this house and appreciated the stunning back patio and access to the beach. There are a few things we would note:1) There is no generator at the house. We were there for a large island-wide power outage. We were able to save our food because we had bought a few sleeves of ice and there's a deep freezer in the kitchen. Luckily, the power came back within 24 hours.2) Laundry is on site for a fee but was out of order for our visit. Ask for extra towels if laundry isn't functional. Air drying takes a long time.3) After heavy rain one night, the master bedroom had a small flood. We think the leak was from a joint between the wall and the floor. The owner couldn't find the source of the issue. Unfortunately, we had a lot of things on the floor that got wet and clothing that had to be line dried. I would advise that travelers keep anything important off the floor.4) The house is on a busy road and not sound-proof. On weeknights it's pretty quiet, but you'll hear a lot of loud cars on the weekend.5) The back door is not sealed properly and generally doesn't latch unless locked. If lights are left on inside, you can get a lot of bugs coming in when it rains. Keep the lights on outside and lights off inside when it rains. Hope this helps future travelers! I would recommend that the owner also add a binder of info such as wifi password, things to do in the area, etc. Cave tubing with Aventureo PR was a highlight of our trip.

Blue Nest perfect house on the ocean
Blue Nest great house plenty of space, liked the bathroom of the patio outside as that is where we spent most of our time if we werent on the beach. Quiet beach not crowded. Great bar across the street, great food. We cooked most our meals at the house on the grill. Walked to the lighthouse every day. Would stay there again. Very comfy beds.

Resort-caliber in non-resort area
Believe the photos: The house is bright and pretty, the terrace and beach are stellar! Beds were very comfortable, kitchen was big and stocked with everything you could think of, including a 3-gallon drinks dispenser perfect for mojitos. We picked this for our son’s beach wedding; the bride’s family booked a larger house just one door away. Most of the time we had the huge beach to ourselves. Note: sand fleas and noseeums were really bad while we were there, so use the spray they provide every time you sit outside! Glad there was a washer & dryer but other places we’ve stayed included it as a perk. New gastrobar across the street has great food, especially tres leches cake.

We were disappointed property not exactly as listed it needs some work. On our second day shower head hand holder leaked, third day toilet leak both problems on the second bathroom .Problem taken care of after host was contacted. Flies and bees came in and out the house every day. Mattresses and pillows very soft should be replaced. We did loved the out side settings and the beach.

Awesome Time!!!!
Blue Nest is a great house at on a awesome beach in Arecibo. We had everything that we needed and was in walking distance to bakery/convenience store that we became regulars at during our stay. The best part if staying here is that you are a very short distance from El Pozo del Obispo which the kids loved and is a great place for pictures. I highly recommend Blue Nest to any family and look forward to booking another family trip here soon!!!
