Caribbean Paradise

The pictures of the Above the Seas didn’t do it any justice; it’s far more beautiful. It had a homey yet rich feeling to it. We had all the staples to be able to cook meals at our home away from home and I took full advantage of it. We were near shops, pharmacies, bakeries, restaurants, surfing school, horse rentals, & the amazing beaches. We enjoyed the AC in our rooms, the rich dark wooden hacienda feel furniture & the jetted bath tub, and cable TV. We got to meet the locals & they were lovely, friendly, helpful people. Ricon Puerto Rico is a magical place. The morning we were leaving I woke up & tears were just streaming down my face, I was not ready to return to Miami just yet. I can't wait to go back. All the other places there were beautiful_ Aguada, Cabo Rojo, Isabela, Aguadilla, San Juan, Old San Juan, Ponce, Lajas, Yauco, Guayannilla, Jayuya, Hormigueros, Las Marias, Añasco, Moca, Quebradillas, Camuy, Hatillo, Arecibo, Barceloneta and Mayaguez mall, but Rincon was just absolutely beautiful and amazingly peaceful; an emotional retreat. We were able to disengage from all stressful thoughts. We lived care free for a week. I wish I could have stayed another week or week & a half at the very least. The sunrise and sunsets were truly magical and the silence was only interrupted by the melodic sounds of nature. Our stay at Above the Seas was absolutely priceless. We are considering going back for the holidays or some time in March and we will definitely be staying at one of the Above the Seas Villas, either at the Carmen or the Petite suite or the Raven depending on how many of us are going back; even my 17 & 19 year olds loved it. Thank you for all the information you provided us with to assist in planing our trip itinerary and for accommodating our needs. If you ever decide to put your place up for sale I want first bids. Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

Owner's Response: Saludos Maria,
It's so great to know that you and your family had such a good time. It sounds like you fell in love with Rincon and the West Coast of PR. For many people Rincon becomes that special place they keep returning to. You and your family are always welcome at our place. Thanks for the awesome review and for choosing to stay with us.
Hasta luego,
Dujardin
