Bello Horizonte - Spectacular Oceanview - Rt 413 Spacious Family Vacation Home

My husband and I took our 3 kids (15, 13, 8) too Rincon for easter break and searched all over for the perfect place to stay that was as close to the surfing beaches as possible. Hotels made no sense, financially, and the one demand from the kids was a pool. It was hard to find a reasonable place with a pool on the beach.

But just up the road from 3 different surfing breaks was Bello Horizonte. It was absolutely perfect. The pool, while not big, kept the kids entertained and cooled off. We spent most of our time outside, the hammocks were always in use and we wound up cooking in half the time we were there. We started our mornings w fresh coffee and pastries from the bakery just across the street and had some of the best meals on the road side stands.

The beaches were beautiful and the husband and eldest son had a blast surfing the different beaches and it wasn't that big a deal to bounce from spot to spot. You actually have a decent idea about the waves from the pool - although binoculars might help.

We scheduled a kayak and snorkel tour on our last day with Alex through RinconVacations.com which was a hit. We had to pass on zip lining though - too much sun and not enough sunscreen.

Staying at Bello was incredibly relaxing and perfect for an active family of 5. We've already talked about returning. Highly recommended.

Our stay at Bello Horizonte in Feb was absolutely perfect. Aleida was a pleasure to work with. She met us at the property which had everything we needed. There was a power issue on our side of the island and we called her and she kept us informed and updated right up until the power came back on. Even in paradise there are hiccups but Aleida helped us feel at ease.

The house and its accommodations exceeded our expectations and were even better than the pics on the site. The kitchen had everything we needed for when we wanted to cook and open feel of the home allowed our group to sprawl out. We had 3 adult couples and we never felt cramped. The covered porch was perfect for an afternoon nap in the hammock, lounging with drinks in the evening. When we ate in we would also dine outside under the covered porch. There was ample room inside and outside the house for everyone.

The grounds were well maintained and is location on the hill made for a perfect private getaway. Tons of room to swim, read, sleep and relax!! The pool's location could not have been better with its beautiful view of the ocean. We would sit in the pool and look out over the ocean and watch the sun set. Having your own pool was a real treat. It was one of the features that really set this property apart from its competition.

The house is just a quick drive to so many beaches which all had their own feel and flavor. We loved the town of Rincon. It was big enough to give you options yet super laid back. There are plenty of dining options in town. We liked Shipwreck Bar & Grill & The Lost Parrot Inn.

We stayed 1 night in San Juan before arriving and 2 nights after leaving Bello Horizonte and the 2 experiences were perfect complements. The hustle and bustle of the city vs the laid back chill of Rincon. We even saw our waitress from the Shipwreck Bar & Grill in San Juan....

Honestly I cannot say enough positive things about our stay. We will be back and we would recommend this home to anyone and everyone who is thinking about a relaxing vacation in PR.

We stayed at Bello Horizonte in July 2012. The grounds are beautiful and the view is fantastic. The house is a great size for a family or just for two people. The bakery (Puntas Bakery) is within walking distance and the food is terrific there. The property was clean and very well maintained. We have recommended this vacation rental to our families and friends. We definitely plan to return.
