Where to Go!: Make it a day and take a catamaran ride on the East coast to one of the offshore islands to explore what island living is all about. Go to El Morro in Old San Juan to see a six level fort (The Caribeean's Largest) dating back to the 1500's with incredible views of San Juan Bay. Visit La Fortaleza which was originally built by Spain's King Charles V to ward off attacks by Caribe Indians, but has since been converted into an opulent governor's mansion.

Wonderful apartment and experience!

JoBenny Bronx, New York
Review Submitted: September 6, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
My family stayed in Omar's apartment from August 13th-20th. While we've been to PR many times, this was our first experience staying in Dorado as well as renting an apartment - but with 2 adults and three growing children, hotel options are becoming much more limited and costly. Omar was a wonderful host and resource from our very first phone call. He made the rental process very simple and straightforward.....greeted us upon our arrival with his adorable son, gave us the five star tour of the apartment and grounds, and provided us with great restaurant recommendations, driving directions and even weather updates when a storm threatened to pass through the island.

The descriptions of the apartment itself are very accurate......although the photos really don't give you a good sense of how large and bright the rooms are, especially the main living/dining area and master bedroom. The jacuzzi was a great treat after a long day at the rainforest or beach.......the kitchen had everything we needed, the walk-in closet was enormous, the washer/dryer a godsend, and the central AC way more than adequate. The somewhat limited cable TV stations might be a bit of an issue for people who are used to having 500 channels at their fingertips but there are 2 "Redbox" movie rentals minutes away from the apartment and honestly, who wants to sit and watch TV when you're in such a beautiful place!!

Cerro Gordo is a beautiful beach.....as lovely as many we've been to in Isla Verde. Entry is free unless you park your car and then it's only $3-$4 for parking. During the week you might be the only ones there.....the weekends get a little crowded but never too bad......and it's a nice way to absorb a little local flavor. The pool on the grounds is beautiful and as others mentioned we were often there by ourselves......The pool "officially" closes at 6PM which seemed a little early to us but once or twice my kids "forgot" to leave and noone said anything. The apartment is very close to 2 supermarkets and just about any fast food you could imagine. We loved Dorado....but keep in mind that it is approx a 45 minute drive to San Juan, 60+ minutes to the rainforest, and approx. 90+ minutes to Fajardo (where most of the snorkeling excursions leave from) so you have to plan your stay and your day trips accordingly.....For us the beauty and quiet and calm of Dorado made it worth the extra driving.

Thank you Omar for a lovely vacation!
Owner's Response: We're thrilled to see we had yet another very satisfied renter!

To clarify the issue related to "The somewhat limited cable TV stations might be a bit of an issue for people who are used to having 500 channels at their fingertips", our cable package is pretty comprehensive since it includes all the major networks (CBS, NBC, ABC, Fox, etc.) plus the major kids channels and CNN International, and many other channels including the local ones.

PERFECT VACATION 6/10-6/23/2009

JOSE & ANJANETTE CHICAGO, IL
Review Submitted: July 20, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We usually come to Puerto Rico to visit relatives every year but this time we wanted to stay in our own place so we could be on our own time schedule and not someone else's and Palma Dorado is the perfect location if you plan to vacation in Puerto Rico. My husband and I traveled with our two children, a dog and my mothert and there was enough room for all of us. The apartment and the property is very well maintained and secure. We were 5 minutes away from the beach (driving). Even if you do not make it to the beach there is a pool on the property which you haveaccess to. We were 30-45 minutes away from San Juan and all the shopping spots along with historical sites. Also in Dorado itself you have all the amenities, i.e. groceries, movies, restaurants, walgreen, etc. The owner, Omar, met us personal to give us the keys and a tour of property and also checked in with us during our stay. There are also several brochures in the apartment so you can plan your days there. Make sure you get the navigation (gps) with your rental or briing your own like we did. It will cut down on your driving time because you will have exact directions to places. All in all we will return for our next vacation. You have all the amenities of being at home on vacation.
Owner's Response: We are so happy to see we have yet another satisfied renter and we look forward to seeing them again next year.

Regarding the use of GPS units in PR, we tested our unit a few renters back and decided not to offer it anymore to avoid disappointments with renters. We found that, while the unit is very helpful to get you where you want to go, you really need to know exactly where the place you want to go to is located on the map (in other words, only knowing the name or an address does not help much since the name/address search capabilities are quite poor). On the other hand, if you know the general location in the map of where you want to go, you gan just hit the 'go there' icon and it works great. Another point is that the GPS might take you through roads that take longer than others (for example, it may route you via primary roads with traffic lights instead of highways). All you need to do in that case is to find the way to the nearest highway and it will re-route you from there.

home away from home

jackie b3001 new york city
Review Submitted: May 4, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
My friend and I felt right at home in this spacious apartment with every convenience right at our finger tips. The quiet neighborhood, sense of security, and fabulous pool where often we were the only people at the pool really made it a relaxing experience. The sound of the coqui and the beautiful tropical breezes only enhanced the experience. The apartment is well maintained and has everything from washer dryer, internet connection,airconditioning to all the necessary well kept appliances.

The backyard patio was a nice place to have breakfast before the start of our day. To be close to the beach(es) and have wonderful sightseeing within reach was only made better by the host providing us with a GPS to have at our disposal.. He had thoughtfully programmed major sites and necessary places(for ex. supermarkets) into the GPS to make our trips convenient for us. The owner was extremely warm and gracious and reflected the people of the island that we met in our travels.

It is the perfect place for people who like to be near the hustle and bustle but not have the noise to detract from their relaxation. It was very soothing and at the same time interesting as we had easy access to everything that we wanted for convenience and sightseeing. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to enjoy the island, as well as get a flavor of the island that is not reflected in the series of hotels along the downtown san juan area. A truly enjoyable vacation. Much thanks to the owner for ensuring such a wonderful time.
Owner's Response: Glad to hear we're still batting 1000 with all of our renters!

As far as the GPS is concerned, it is loaded with a few locations that may be of interest, and we are still testing this as an option to offer to our renters, so it is not part of the offering as of yet (5/15/09). If you are interested in our GPS, please note that in your inquiry to see if it is available during your visit.

Comfortable and Convenient

Rich & Denniece Alberta, Canada
Review Submitted: March 20, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
The condo was larger than we anticipated. The unit was clean, and better outfitted than expected, there were all the cleaning and laundry supplies and staples for personal hygiene. The owners were friendly and helpful. I went running in the early morning and felt safe . I would recommend the property. The beach is a long walk or short drive and beautiful. Dorado is just out of metro area and close to the main highways which made travel to various parts of the island easier.
Owner's Response: We're glad to see we had another family that had a great time while staying with us, and we hope to see them again in the future. We would like to take this opportunity to clarify that the entrance to Cerro Gordo beach is exactly one mile away from the apartment complex gates.
