Photos and Description of the El Yunque vacation house rental
2BR + Loft Forest/Park Vacation Rental El Verde, sleeps up to 6; on five acres

This beautiful large new, two air-conditioned bedrooms/one-bath home is nestled on 5 private secluded acres in the foothills adjoining the El Yunque National Forest rain forest. We are one of very few properties offering the actual experience of living in the rain forest.

Our home is an easy drive to the International Airport (SJU), old San Juan, the nightlife of El Condado and Isla Verde, world-famous beaches, golf courses, nature reserves, impressive underwater reefs and small cays. The nearby coastal area is ideal for snorkeling, scuba diving, sailing, kayaking and deep sea fishing. All this is a short distance from the house while you enjoy sleeping in the privacy & tranquility of the cool night breezes in the rain forest.

Our rainforest home is fully equipped with washer and dryer as well as wireless internet.

For the nature lover who seeks privacy, tranquility and the lush environment of the tropical rainforest, you have arrived.

Our home has a unique 'open-air' design, so that no walls or unnecessary obstacles block the way of communication, natural light or rich, fresh air. There is a fully equipped and functional kitchen along with a movable island. Two spacious air-conditioned bedrooms are on the lower floor, one of which has double doors that open onto the veranda. The entire second floor is a wide open loft with two outdoor decks. The loft itself is fully furnished with four large futons that transform into beds.

Guests will enjoy peaceful surroundings, lush vegetation, siestas in the hammocks on the expansive porch, great back-yard barbecues, unexpected rain followed by radiant sun and blue skies, sounds of the forest (especially the song of the coqui, the tiny tree frogs that welcomes the rain singing in unison), and marvelous morning walks along our private road.

The song of the coquí will welcome you to the rain forest. They are the tiny tree frogs that, singing in unison, greet the rain.

My husband and I stayed at this incredible home for a week in May, and I am so glad I took the time to research rentals. Not only was the house perfect in every way, but there were tiny, dark condos for rent in other areas for lots more money - plus add-on charges. Here there was none of that. Pipo, the caretaker, let us know that it would be no problem at all if we called him for any reason. Everything was so ideal, that we didn't even need to call once....
The covered porch was where we spent our time when we weren't out exploring the mountains and beaches, small towns and snorkeling trips. We never even went into San Juan, because there was so much else nearby...
It rained most every day for a time in this lush area, and we watched the jungle grow daily from this porch. We shopped and cooked and slept, and I could not think of a better paradise to be in....

Owner's Response: Thanks for the very generous comments. Our home seems to attract people who really appreciate its special features, which we are delighted to share with our renters.

Wonderful stay!

The property is as described and more. We had all of the comforts of a well maintained property and the landscaping is just beautiful. I had excellent communications with the owner all during the booking process and afterwards. A welcome packet will be emailed upon booking which details all of the do's and don't's with the property along with shopping and area activities. There is no guessing as I found with other properties we booked.

We could not have been more pleased with this selection, only wish we had stayed at this property for our entire time in Puerto Rico. Our hikes in the rainforest will be wonderful memories for years to come.

It was perfect. I have to echo all the positive comments already posted. The bonus of a labyrinth was amazing. Thanks to Walter (and Nilda) for making all this possible.
Owner's Response: It's such a pleasure to know that Lauren and others enjoy our rainforest home!

An excellent choice

We loved this house! Clean, well maintained, up to date. (The only slight complaint was lack of a second bathroom.) An AMAZING location in El Yunque National Park. We were serenaded to sleep by the songs of the coqui frogs. If you're a nature lover, this house will delight you. Birds, lizards, frogs, orchids, bromeliads... All kinds of wonderful things to discover.
The location is secluded without being remote. All the conveniences of modern life are available just a short, pleasant drive away. I had cell service, and wifi worked fine.
I wouldn't hesitated to recommend this property, and would certainly consider staying here again. Very reasonably priced, homey, comfortable.

Just PERFECT

I just spent the most wonderful days with my husband away from the city and every noise and the crows. Our music became the songs of the birds and the view needless to say was our daily spectacle. The pictures don't represent its actual beauty and the magnificent environment in which we found ourselves.

We were actually sad when it was time to leave. I would definitely return and I most recommend it!!!! I live in PR and this is by FAR the best place I have had the opportunity to stay in. Close enough to the beach and of course far enough from the crows, but magnificently located in the heart of a forest. Plenty of places to discover and enjoy. We thought about going out twice, we would rather just stay within the premises and cook our own dinner with their BBQ.
