Further details for this vacation villa rental in El Yunque, Puerto Rico

Location Location: Tucked into the foothills of El Yunque you will be a world away yet only 6 miles to conveniences such as Belz outlet shopping, Super Wal-mart Center, Walgreens, many dining options and easy access to the toll road. Enjoy the beaches of Pinones, Luquillo and Fajardo, explore the magic of the bio-luminescent bay, hike any number of trails in the rain forest, or enjoy a day on the water exploring the reefs and abundant sea life with one of the many tour operators in Fajardo. If history and old world charm are what you are looking for you can easily spend the day exploring the historically and culturally rich city of Old San Juan or enjoy an abundance of dining, shopping and nightlife in the metro area of San Juan. The best part is that when your adventures are over, you can retreat to your own peaceful and private oasis. ***A car is necessary to stay in this location and while all roads are paved, you will need to drive up 5 miles of mountain roads which are curvy and more narrow.

Everything to get you started on your vacation, along with a carefully prepared activity binder and the availability and assistance of your hosts who live just up the road. So whether looking for a relaxing low key vacation or an action packed Caribbean adventure Villa Escondido can be the perfect “home base” for your Caribbean vacation.

Villa Escondido = great new addition to VS!

Review Submitted: December 18, 2008 Date of Stay: December 2008
I've stayed at Villa Sevilla in the past (Chalet & Casita) and really loved the new Villa Escondido property. While Chalet is still my favorite, Villa Escondido is really special--everything you need, great views of Caribbean and mountains (rainbows at least 5 times while we were there!), and grapefruit tree in back yard!
