nice spot
the apartment is well located for the beach and various restaurants in the area. super basic accommodations and nothing fancy; 2 people max. noise level was rough with barking dogs at times in the night. host was very attentive and helpful. lack of a/c wasn't an issue on this 3rd floor space with the consistent breeze.

Great place to relax
Relaxing and just a short minute walk to the ocean. Friendly neighborhood and met people from all over. Sunsets amazing. Beach was swimmable all the time, nightlife was lively with people of all ages. Grocery store, bakery, food trucks within walking distance made it hard to leave. The breeze and fans made you forget there was no air conditioning. The birds at night made it paradise to fall asleep. Great vacation spot.

Nice, simple place to stay
Overall, we liked this place. It's close to the beach, which was nice. The bed is comfortable. There's a nice shared space outside for BBQs and hammocks hanging on porches to use. The parking is private, off the street in a gated area. It was a bit more primitive than we expected. There's no air conditioning and the floors are concrete. Perhaps it's because we were there during Good Friday, but the neighborhood was very noisy until after 10:00 PM (loud music) and our kids go to bed at 8:00, so that was rough, especially since we had to keep the windows open. We found a couple cockroaches, but with no AC and windows open, it seemed reasonable. The host came to talk to us at 10:00 PM. She was very nice, but we would prefer earlier visits.

Place
Our host was absolutely wonderful and the location was very nice. The place itself was not. He needs to tile the floors and gut that kitchen. Totally out dated and the stove barely usable. Need to take the dirty stuff off the shelves and build them out to put groceries. We made it work but was very disappointed in the place.

Perfect Host
Our host, Jose, was always easy to reach and over accommodating for our every request and need. Even when he was away on business he saw to it that our requests were handled in a very timely fashion. We have stayed at many rentals and I'm pretty sure Jose gets best host ever.

Beautiful location
Stayed almost 6 weeks and found it worked perfect for us. Jose was a fantastic host and gave us many tips about the area and even took us on a tour. We were only a 5 min walk to a beautiful beach and home to sea turtles.
Friendly people in the area and made friends with others staying near us in beach houses.
Close to grocery store, bars, restaurants and a local bakery.

Paradise Found Here
I found paradise with my Hosts in Vega Baja and cannot wait to return to stay with them. Jose and Marianella welcomed me as family, making every minute of my stay in Vega Baya full of joy and fun. We talked and ate together, swam and walked the beach together and I truly enjoyed their company. They have transformed their house into a home and you will love staying here! Highly Recommend!!

Hassle free authentic island experience
This is a typical PR home for the area. Louvered covers for the windows, open frame construction, essential amenities, etc. It was perfect for me. Located right across the street from a nice and clean beach. If I wasn’t busy following my son’s team or sightseeing, I could always go to the beach to relax. This is a popular area in the evenings so you will here music until midnight. But you will appreciate the sounds of the ocean breeze, waves, and nature while you sleep. And I can’t say enough good things about the hosts. They reached out to me before my trip. They met me at the driveway to help me find their home. And they were available to answer any of my questions through my entire stay. They were the best.

Great local flavor getaway
We loved our space with Marianela and Jose! The apartment was very sweet and perfect for our needs -- there was lots of privacy for us on the upper patio even though they also were on the property in a lower level apartment. Jose and Marianela provided the perfect blend of accessible and unintrusive as we came and went on our activities. They were generous in loaning bikes for amazing morning beach bike ride, cooler and beach chairs for the beach, etc. Marianela was even receptive to helping us sort out a challenge we were having getting some takeout food! The beach is a very short walk away and we enjoyed kayaking, beach time, and hiking the rocks nearby. The location was also a great home base for day trips we took to other locales / adventures. If you're interested in getting a local and authentic flavored experience with charm and great hosts, this is a great place to check out!

A bit rustic but Awesome!
The third floor cottage has a beautiful view of the ocean, you go to sleep listening to the waves and wake up listening to the waves. You are a short 5 minute walk to the Vega Baja Beach. Thus is a very nice beach and I never felt unsafe. You can see both the sunrise and the sunset from the beach. The cottage is the perfect size for one or two people. Good bed and very nice linens. And the wildlife is pretty cool too! I will definitely stay here again! Jose and Marienella (sorry for the spelling) are both GREAT! Everything you need is close by they have bikes and beach chairs you can use while there.
