Excellent home base

We enjoyed our visit to Puerto Rico! The owner Sally was very communicative. The interior of the home is comfortable for our party of 6. Two of the bedrooms share a jack and Jill bathroom. The pool and patio area are exceptional and where we spent most of our time. The house is conveniently located near the marinas where most of our excursions were. The neighborhood is quiet and gated.

100% recommend

This is a beautiful historic home that's clean and inviting. The pictures are accurate, and the backyard and pool area are the best. Sally made sure we had all the basics and more. The kitchen was very clean and stocked with dishes, cookware, and spices. The rooms and beds are spacious and comfy, and the bathrooms are stocked with body wash, shampoos, and other toiletries. Sally goes out of her way to make sure you have a great and comfortable stay. This place is a rare find as is the host she is truly delightful. We look forward to returning next year.

Beautiful house, great host

This house was just what my family needed during our vacation in Puerto Rico. The rooms are big and the living areas are well decorated with useful and interesting touches. The host was very responsive to any questions and she left a cabinet full of helpful information for sights to see . The yard, outside area and pool are wonderful, too. We got to see an iguana and some other lizards hanging out in the yard. We had a great stay and would certainly stay here again in the future!

Beautiful Home - Excellent homebase

This is a gorgeous historic home. As a group of 2 families, with kids ranging from 8 yrs to 20 yrs, the pool and very large covered patio are where we spent most of our time. We really only ventured inside to sleep and prepare food - and for these activities we very much appreciated the AC in the bedrooms and the spacious and well stocked kitchen! The house is thoughtfully stocked with pool & bath towels, coffee, plenty of glassware and dishes, trash bags, and even dishwasher and washing machine detergent. The best amenity is by far Sally herself!! Sally was extremely helpful and a wonderful source of information and suggestions on things to do and see. She went very much above and beyond in helping us book outings and sending us links for El Yunque trails and specific beaches and grocery stores. Really just a joy to talk to and work with. Will definitely recommend!

Beautiful and quiet property!

The property is in a very quiet gated community. It is close to many bars, restaurants and eateries. We went to El Cayo several nights for dinner and they have the best Pina Coladas on the island (in our opinion). There was some confusion on the day of check in as we arrived quite late and didn't realize that when you type in the provided code on the keypad at the entrance, that you are actually calling someone so they can let open the gate. After that, things went smooth and we were provided a key fob for driving in and out. The house itself is historic and quite old. We were aware and appreciate the historic value of the home. The air conditioning in each bedroom works great and cools down the rooms quickly, but the other areas do not have air conditioning. That was fine with us as we spent most of our time outdoors in the beautiful pool. That area is spectucular and it was nice to use in our days when we needed to take a break from all the sightseeing/beach days. The kitchen has many necessary utensils, a regular coffee maker, blender, air fryer and small appliances. I had hoped to cook breakfast but could not find a decent pan/griddle to make pancakes; the electric griddle was broken and there other pans were not non-stick. Not all of the burners worked either. I wasn't planning on cooking a meal, so no biggie! Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and had a wonderful time!

First time in Puerto Rico

We had such a great time at Sally’s place in Fajardo. It was the perfect location for the Bio Bay tour, snorkeling trip to Icocas and a chocolate tour near el Yunque. The house was a good size for our group and we made use of the pool every day. The air conditioners in the bedrooms were fantastic. Sally was very helpful and had great ideas for restaurants and excursions. Thank you!

Great Place - Easy to Recommend - Will Return

Easy to give a strong recommendation for this rental! The host is very responsive and very helpful in providing information about the house as well as helping coordinate with respect to other things you might need during the visit. The host went the extra mile for us because we had three children under age 2 staying with us. She had great connections in the community, including with chefs to come do a private dinner at the house (which was done for us outside - it was awesome!). The property was clean and had everything we needed for hanging out at the house and pool everyday! For families with young ones, the location felt safe and was fenced in so the little ones couldn't get off property. The pool was perfect size, the big yard was spacious and even though we were in a gated neighborhood, we felt like we were in our own oasis. Even got to see some cool wildlife come through like some lizards and iguanas (all of which were respectful of our space and we of theirs)! The little pool house had a shower and toilet which was super convenient. The gas grill was great for cooking local fresh snapper too! Also, the spacious covered patio with ceiling fans and lights was our main hangout location the entire trip, it was cool, shady, and a clean area for the kids to crawl around. Perfect for mid-large size groups with kids looking to explore the eastern side of PR! Would write more if VRB O let me - but this place was just perfect! Would definitely return!

Excellent multi-generational Family Vacation

We stayed at Sally’s place with a large group of 12 including grandparents all the way down to toddlers. Sleeping arrangements were a bit tight, although plenty of beds, but the property was otherwise perfect for spreading out into smaller groups when needed, but with communal spaces to hang together when desired. The pool and property were perfect for the kids and poolside patio for lounging for the adults while keeping an eye on the younger ones. The location was great- private, gated neighborhood centrally located, although not walkable to the beach, was a perfect launching point for our adventures. The kitchen was huge and great for preparing meals for a crowd, when needed. Sally responded quickly and efficiently to questions and resolved an initial issue with bedding quickly, but was otherwise unobtrusive and left us to enjoy our vacation to ourselves. She had great recommendations for outings/bookings but we never felt pressured to do any of those “extras.” If you’re looking for a comfortable space to launch a family vacation from, this was ideal.

Nice holiday getaway

We had a nice time. The house could use new floors, but the backyard made up for any shortcomings inside. AC was only in the bedrooms, but it was cool enough with the windows open that we didn't need it. Besides, we spent all of out "at home" time on the back porch. Great central location. Easy access to grocery, docks, restaurants, and rain forest. Less than 10 minutes from whatever you could need. There wasn't a "house rules" book like we are used to, so we weren't sure what to do before we left (trash, laundry-towels, dishes, etc...). Sally did text to tell us where to put the trash on our last morning. Just FYI...pin the house with GPS location. Addresses get you no where in Puerto Rico. We were lost for 2 1/2 hours trying to find the house using the address. We were less 5 minutes from it, but kept going to the wrong "Calle 3"s.

This house was great, but the pool and deck were amazing!! We had the best family vacation ever. There were plenty of unique activities nearby with lots of relaxation by the pool. The yard was huge and the covered outdoor eating area was perfect for our family. Sally was the best host ever. Definitely take her advice about excursions. She won't steer you wrong! She was incredibly responsive and was willing to do whatever it took for us to have the best vacation ever. I cannot wait to come back and stay there again.

About the host

Hosted by Sally

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

This home was built by an American architect and has a east coast plantation feel. I purchased it because of its perfect location. It is 8 minutes from the most beautiful beaches including two hidden beaches and our bio bay, Laguna Grande. It is 15 minutes from the ferry that takes you to both the island of Culebra and Vieques and 15 minutes from El Yunque Rain Forest. This house is also 12 minutes from the Luquillo kioskos which are a strip of restaurants and souvenir shops along the Luquillo beach.

What makes this property unique

This house is very unique for Puerto Rico. Most homes here have tile floors, but this home has beautiful wooden floors throughout. It is also unique in that it is not only in a quiet gated community, but has a huge pool that is within a walled property offering complete privacy.
