Fun Stay in San Juan

A unique experience, we rented smaller quarters during Sanse festival. Sol, the owner, has a thick Russian accent which makes it all seem a little mysterious for lack of a better word. He was pleasant enough but not extremely talkative. Quarters were really small, somewhat outdated but clean with bunk beds, shower also small, but remember it’s an old sailboat. I enjoyed the whole experience, not only the accommodations and meeting Sol, but the Marina was awesome, filled with luxury yachts and seeing how other half lives. Also we were in walking distance of our cruise port

Making memories in San Juan

Staying on Captain Sol’s sailboat in the marina between Old San Juan and San Juan has been a positive experience for vacation. Not only is it very convenient for traveling and touring the city but the free parking for our rental car was great. The boat stay was clean, charming, and a neat experience for the trip. Captain Sol was very cordial and full of useful travel information. I recommend this stay to anyone who wants to travel light and move quick. The convenience is a premium when traveling.

Recent Stay

Enjoyed the stay and getting to know Sol. Boat is conveniently located in the harbor within walking distance to many restaurants and the Condado. Old town San Juan is about a 5 minute drive too. The boat is comfortable and a gentle breeze is always available with great views of the skyline. Sol, the owner is interesting to talk to and is very passionate about his boat. A creative place to stay, much better than a 10 x 15 hotel cube. Would do it again.

We never stayed. Boat is slipped at San Juan Bay marina, PR. The marina policy is NO rentals. Host had been doing an end run. As soon as we got out of the taxi the marina security shut us down hard. They were aware of the deception. Host had messaged me not to discuss rental with marina staff, trust me, they already knew. Should have sent up a red go but this came after it was booked. There was a four day festival going on this weekend, think you’re going too find alternate accommodations? Guess again. The only reason I booked it was the proximity to the cruise ship departure point as we needed to arrive a day earlier due to our flight. After hours of trying to figure something we returned to SJU airport, rented a car, and drove 20 miles to find a room that was not an obscene price for the night. Caveat Emptor. Totally bad experience. Expedia language algorithms prevent me from using the language I would prefer using. Shame on Expedia for allowing this listing.

Great place!!

Review of My Recent Stay at [Property Name]I recently had the pleasure of staying at [Property Name] during my visit to [Location], and I couldn't be happier with my experience! From the moment I booked the stay, the host, [Host’s Name], was incredibly accommodating and responsive. Upon arrival, I was greeted with a warm welcome and a personalized note that made me feel right at home. The space itself was spotless and beautifully decorated, with all the amenities one could ask for—comfortable bedding, a fully equipped kitchen, and even some thoughtful touches like snacks and local guidebooks.Throughout my stay, [Host’s Name] was available for any questions I had and went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed. Whether it was recommending great local restaurants or providing tips on nearby attractions, it was clear that they genuinely cared about making my stay enjoyable.The location of the property was also fantastic—central to many popular sites and with easy access to public transportation. I loved being able to explore the neighborhood and return to such a lovely place to unwind at the end of the day.I highly recommend [Property Name] to anyone looking to stay in [Location]. The combination of a beautiful space, thoughtful hospitality, and a great location makes it a standout choice. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!

Not what I expected

I’m a guy - the owner suggested I use the women’s restroom at the marina because HE likes using it. As a guy I was creeped out. Also, I did not know that I would not be able to freely come-and-go. He asked I call him by 11:00pm to get back into the gated pier. At 11:00 he was already asleep, but a security guard let me in. The boat was not very clean inside (clutter, hair, grime).

Nice boat, but the "owner"...

Four ladies on the trip of a lifetime to the Caribbean were not impressed. We agreed on a price, but were charged $150 extra pr.person upon arrival for us staying in seperate cabins - even though we were not being informed about thid when booking. Add an "owner" that stayed on the boat so that we felt watched and could not relax, an "owner" that stumbled around drunk and who kept complaining about the "mess" we made (a couple of books and a blanket that was not folded): we were not happy. The deal we were given when booking was that towels and sheets were to be changed twice; it ended with us having to beg for it to be changed once during our 10 day stay - and the "owner" being angry when we insisted that we should not change them ourselves. One of the toilets did not work properly and flooded one bathroom. We do not recommend leasing this boat.
