Bella Vista Chalet is centrally located just 20 miles east of San Juan International Airport and 20 miles west of Fajardo (the eastern end of the island) and 5 miles above the town of Rio Grande. We are near El Yunque rain forest and within 5-20 miles of beaches,surfing, hiking, dining, shopping, bioluminescence bay, snorkeling excursions, and ferry service to Vieques and Culebra. Guests will need to rent a car if staying at Villa Sevilla as there is no reliable public transportation available outside of the metro area. Renting a car will also give you the freedom to explore many areas of our diverse island. The five mile road up to Bella Vista Chalet is paved but is a mountain road and will be winding and narrower. Villa Sevilla's central location will easily allow you to explore the metro areas of San Juan, along with all the activities and attractions of the north eastern and central areas of Puerto Rico.

A Wonderful Vacation Spot!

Stasi Long Island, NY
Review Submitted: December 21, 2007 Date of Stay: August 2007
Bella Vista indeed! On our recent trip to Puerto Rico the highlight was staying in this wonderful mountain retreat with its amazing view. The house, which is surrounded by amazing tropical plants, flowers and trees, is outfitted with everything a family could need - all the basic housewares and toiletries, but also pool and beach toys, coolers for our excursions, beach chairs, all the way down to books and games for the kids and adults. For those who can't live without being "plugged in" there is even satellite TV and WiFi access. You won't want to stay indoors, however, as the upstairs balcony and the pool deck offer amazing views of the valley all the way down to the beach! Undoubtedly our favorite place to be.
Swimming in the lighted pool at night, with the coqui singing all around you, is a wonderful way to end a busy day of sightseeing. The drive up to the house is slow and winding, but is also very pretty and gives you a glimpse of local living.
Wally and Marina were terrific hosts, coming by every morning to see if there was anything we needed, inviting our children to help feed their chickens (the kids looked forward to this every morning!), and giving us a tour of their house and garden down the road. They were just the right mix of available, but removed enough, so that we felt the house was truely "ours" for the week. We definitely recommend Villa Sevilla (and already have to many of our friends!) to anyone looking for a quiet, private, beautiful place to stay in Puerto Rico!

Heaven on Earth!

April and Lou Southern New Jersey
Review Submitted: October 26, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
The pictures do not do it justice. Our jaws dropped when we got out of the car and looked at the property. Marina and Wally have carefully landscaped a beautiful botanical garden on their property. The house was spacious and spotless and their company was much appreciated in the mornings. We also loved their two little companions, Brownie and Zora. This is by far the best kept secret in the rainforest. We aren't so sure we want to share, but we decided that everyone should have a chance to see this. There is no reason to ever stay at a resort again. This was a much better value.

Thanks again, guys, for a great trip!

The Best Vacation

Amandafromcalifornia Fresno, CA, USA
Review Submitted: June 16, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
My husband, my friend and I stayed at the Villa Sevilla Bella Vista Chalet for one (short) week. It was better than a home away from home! In just a short beautiful drive up through lush vegetation this beautiful home sits with breath taking views and a relaxing atmosphere. I knew we had found our favorite vacation spot when we looked acrossed the front balcony and saw the amazing view of the valley and ocean. The grounds were so beautiful with plants that I have never even seen before. I spent hours walking around the property taking pictures of flowers and wildlife. There is a gorgeous river with a waterfall just down the road. The house is clean and furnished with comfortable furniture and amenities. The pool is a clean, salt water pool. There were floaties, noodles and lounge chairs to relax on. My husband and I really enjoyed the coqui frogs. It's so nice to sit on the balcony at night, listen to the coqui frogs sing, and watch the fire flies (which was the first time I had ever seen them). We loved the freshly baked bread and fruit in the morning. Marina and Wally were great hosts and were very knowledgeable about local attractions, restaurants and activities. There are chickens with baby chicks walking around outside! (So cute). In addition to staying in this beautiful home we were able to learn how to surf, go sailing and snorkeling. This was the best vaction I have ever had. I recommend this place to any family or group of friends. I can't wait to go back!

The Perfect Vacation Home

Jen B. Maine
Review Submitted: April 28, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
My family and I just returned from a visit to Puerto Rico where we stayed at the Bella Vista Chalet. This home is everything described on the website plus more! The grounds are beautiful! We took many pictures of the tropical flowers and trees. The view is amazing and we spend many hours on the porch enjoying it. We used the kitchen often and found that we had everything we needed to prepare our meals. The layout was perfect for our family with the four kids in the downstairs bedrooms and my husband and I in the master bedroom upstairs. Erevything is well maintained. The pool is awesome and we made good use of it. The boys (age 14) walked down to the river each day to swim in the waterfalls and jump of the rocks into the pools. We were never too hot due to the nice breezes on the mountain. The location suited us well with plenty to due within an hour or less drive (snorkeling, horseback riding, hiking, Old San Juan etc.). The binder they provided had descriptions and directions to nearby activites and was VERY helpful to us. The owners provided excellent service without being intrusive.
I would most definitely recommed this property!

Home away from home

tonsofun Salt Lake City, Utah
Review Submitted: April 21, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
Our rental experience was amazing! The house was everything that we had hoped for it - was exactly as pictured, Wally and Marina were great hosts, and we can't wait to go back. The property is beautiful, well maintained, and was such a great price. Wally and Marina have put a great book together with information about beaches and great places to stop for a taste of local cuisine. This is the perfect place to stay if you are looking for a great vacation experience and want to avoid being confined to a hotel room or busy resort area.
