Cabo Rojo 2 Bedroom apartment
Submitted: March 21, 2012
Stayed: January 2012
The listing description was accurate regarding most things. The apartment was clean, toaster was broken.
This apartment is on the 3 floor of a 4 story building and was mostly quiet until Friday night, then the people upstairs started moving furniture for hours. We complained the first week, then didn't bother calling again. We where there for 6 weeks, this happened every weekend and we ended up going to Ponce and San Juan most Saturdays.
The little terrace actually looks down upon a parking lot/boat launch area, that on the weekends fills up with cars with hugh speakers, families with grilling equipment and radios and boat trailers.
I also wrote the managing agent inquiring about renting Kayaks, that email was apparently ignored.
Very difficult to find fresh fish and vegetables. Nearest fish store was in Puerto Real with only 4 kinds of fish, conch and spiny lobsters. Restaurants in Joyuda were very poor.
We did find a very beautiful beach about 20 minutes away at the lighthouse. The weather was pleasant, however I would not recommend this property.
Owner's Response: This beachfront property in Cabo Rojo is very popular for guests on short vacations and also corporate rentals. In fact, we have received many great property reviews and thank you emails for our service. We are very sorry to hear that you were not completely satisfied. Honestly, we wish you would have told us while you were there, for us to try and make it better for you.
Cabo Rojo is home to amazing beaches and it is widely known for great fresh seafood. In nearby Joyuda there are 3 miles of the best seafood restaurants in Puerto Rico with great views; some have earned Golden Fork and Golden Plate Awards. Puerto Rican cuisine has a unique tasty blend of different influences and it is well seasoned, so it may be a little different than the food you usually have. Puerto Real’s fishing village is the best place to buy fresh fish, and you will find a bigger variety during early mornings.
Thanks for letting us know now that the toaster is not working. We are replacing it with a new one. Usually guests will inform us during their stay if they need us to replace anything that breaks, and we replaced it right away. About the kayak rentals, we answered your email with the information you requested, maybe you didn’t receive it. Kayak rentals are available at Joyuda, Boqueron and Combate beaches. Also, in the QP Magazine provided at the apartment there is a listing of all the companies offering kayak rentals, as well as other water sports rentals and recreational activities in the area, among other information. We give our phone number to all our guests, and we are always available and happy to help with any information or recommendation they may need.
