Modern and simple with a Magnificent Ocean View

My sister, brother and I traveled to PR to attend our cousin's wedding. We chose this apartment because we were looking for 3 bedrooms, and an equipped kitchen. The apartment was perfect for us. Everything is exactly as shown in the photos, very neat and a spotless kitchen, well equipped. We never got around to cooking a meal there, but had cereal, toast for breakfast, then enjoyed the sights and found interesting restaurants to eat at in the evening. It was great to open those big balcony doors in the morning and get hit with the gorgeous view. We never had a problem with noise at night, my sister used a white noise app on her iphone(there is a docking station for iphone 4 in the apt), and she had the front bedroom , with the balcony. We heard roosters during the day and thought they were charming. Wanda met us at the apartment and was easily accessible, by phone or text. Payment via paypal was easy. OSJ is a beautiful city, we spent several days walking around, exploring. We also spent several hours at each of the forts, both of which you can see from our balcony. San Cristobel is a 5 minute walk away. We did have a car, but parking on the street is nearly impossible. Wanda directed us to a parking garage about a 10-15 min walk from our apartment. We felt very safe here, there is a locked gate at the front doorway, and a deadbolt lock to our apartment. Being on the third floor did not pose a problem, nor did the lack of AC as each BR had a ceiling fan and there is a floor fan also, if needed. Going in August could be a different story. The weather was beautiful, especially being that we had missed the big snowstorm in NY! Good timing! We would definitely come back, to stay in the same apartment. All in all a great vacation!

This place was amazing! The apartment was clean and perfect for my family and friends. It is close to everything in San Juan and the views are breathtaking. We were able to stay home and cook and enjoy our balcony overlooking the ocean.

I spent two weeks in this apartment over the Christmas holidays. I think the title of the ad captures the essence - modern and simple.The positives: the view is exactly as pictured - you can wake up every morning and take a couple steps to look out over the ocean and feel the trade winds blow on you. I generally felt very safe as the building is secured with a locked gate and there is generally a fair amount of foot and car traffic outside. You are within a reasonable walk to everything in OSJ - I even found a laundromat with drop off service within a couple of blocks. The unit itself is stocked with tableware and some cooking utensils/cookware, a microwave, stove, fridge, and toaster. There is an HD TV but it only tunes Spanish stations and the HDMI interface is blocked by the mounting. Anytime I had an issue, the landlord addressed it very promptly. The negative: It is on the third floor so be prepared to walk up and down steep steps. There is no air conditioning. The shutters tend to flap around with the wind so while you can lock them down, that blocks the breeze. La Perla, the small development just to the north has chickens so be prepared to be woken by roosters daily. The shower/stool area is TINY and evidently OSJ sewers don't handle toilet paper well. While I was worried that putting used toilet paper in the trash can would stink it wasn't a problem (just a bit gross). The beds are by no means hotel quality so don't expect much. If you stay more than a week, I recommend having them come in to do cleaning.
