AWESOME VIEW! BEACHFRONT PLAYA AZUL TOWER 1 IN LUQUILLO

This place was an extremely good value for the location, which is beach front. The deck is huge and we spent a lot of time looking out on the beach. This location is good if you plan on doing a lot of outdoor adventures because it's close to El Yunque rain forest and all the kayaking tours and ferries in Fajardo to the other islands. We have a young child so didn't opt to do the trip to Culebra or kayaking, but we took him twice to the public Luquillo beach where we paid $4.28 for parking since the waters are very shallow and calm. My son also enjoyed the rougher waves in front of the condo. We also took a scenic drive on the coast on route 901 in Yabucoa, which is one of the most beautiful drives I have ever taken in my life where there are great views of the bright blue Carribean Sea on a winding road up and back down the mountain. Then we also drove to and ate at a very picturesque bay in Naguabo, which is 30 minutes, I think from the condo. One of the most beautiful bays I have ever seen in my life.

The furniture in the pictures look dated for some reason, but in reality the armchair and the plaid futon are relatively new and clean. The bedroom has a huge king sized bed, which was enough for us and our small son. The parking was plentiful.

The one problem we had was trying to use the DVD player as another reviewer wrote since we had brought our son's DVDs. We gave up and fell asleep exhausted trying to figure it out. Also would have been nice to have wi-fi in the condo for our tablet. The week we were there, there were a lot of trade winds, which put us to sleep, but it could get loud and the door was so heavy to open and close, the winds were that powerful. We could have used it in the lobby, but didn't bother. The building seems a little dated as is the lobby, playground, and pool area, but for the price of one week it was still a great value and we really got our money's worth in Pedro's clean condo. There's a lot of clean towels and bed linens available. It's also a safe neighborhood. My husband and I took turns walking in the early morning on the streets and the beach. You can even walk to the public beach on the western side, which was a very beautiful walk and always seemed safe. The down side is the area of La Pared Beach and the town square did not have much in terms of cafes, restaurants, shops, etc. It looked like a ghost town. We did get lucky though with a festival on Saturday, with lots of arts and crafts we bought.

The apartment was exactly what we were looking for. We had never been to Puerto Rico before and wanted a private place where we could relax, go swimming, and see the sites. It was centrally located and the view could not be beat. We were about 25 minutes from Ferjardo, 10 minutes from the rain forest and beautiful beaches right outside the apartment. We slept soundly in the comfortable king sized bed listening to the wave crash on shore. The common pool was very clean and was never too crowded.
Upon our arrival, we had a problem not being able to connect to internet via the modem. I mentioned it to Enoc and they immediately brought me a disk to try and remedy the situation. Unfortunately, because I had a Mac, the modem was not compatible and I was never able to connect via the modem. It was a minor inconvenience and we we were able to access the WiFi downstairs in the library.
My only critique is that some of the cooking implements (frying pan and knives) should be replaced. Also we could not figure out how to get the DVD player to work as there were multiple remotes. An instruction sheet on how to do this would be useful. We watched the movie on my laptop so no worries.
If you are looking for a modestly appointed, very clean and centrally located place to stay, I would highly recommend this place.

My daughter and I spent a week here. This is a great location - a walk to the beach and 1 minute drive to main road. Place very clean, the beach is fantastic, view from balcony is great! The trade winds are strong - never needed the air conditioning. The only issue we had was the sliding door to the balcony was difficult to open - but we did manage it every time.

This is gated community - guard at gate very helpful, the people who are at the desk of the building are very helpful too. Pedro was very responsive and helpful - answered emails quickly and very clearly.

While in Puerto Rico I spent a lot of time at the beach outside apt - water is fantastic. Every morning I took a walk on the beach. Enjoyed hearing the constant surf!
