Great Property, Great Location!

Other than the oven not working (which Hector the property manager told us about when we checked in), and a couple of other minor electrical quirks as reported on previous reviews, . . we had a great time. We enjoyed some quiet time at the pool and the iguanas that dropped in to visit! We will definitely be back. Thank you, Aida and Greg!

Okaii experience

Booked this because it had washer and dryer come to find out that the dryer leaves clothes damp and it doesn’t dry out all the way that was the most annoying experience. The light went out one day when the light came back on one of the ACs weren’t working so that night we had to cut everyone in 2 rooms. They came to fix the AC the next day, other than that the house was okay.

Gualdaraya beach house

The property was beautiful. We had a rough start with the pool, which was the main reason I rented the house. The pool appeared cloudy and the water was not clean also the filter pump was not running. But the property manager fixed it within one day. The water pressure in the shower was very low and the water was cold. Other than that, great location and beautiful house.

Quaint and relaxed

We had a lovely time. You can get everywhere you could want to go on the island on a day trip without it being too touristy where you hang your hat. House and property seemed well maintained. Our contact with the propert manager was good. Only negatives master bedroom TV speaker was blown, and the dryer took 3 cycles to dry our clothes properly. Our contact said he would fix these small issues before the next guest. I would recommend this house and return without hesitation as it met our needs perfectly.

Lovely time in this house

This was a wonderful property for the 6 of us to stay at. We had just come from 5 days in Old San Juan and while we loved exploring there, the apt. was not great. This house in Patillas was perfect. It was super clean and comfortable. We loved the pool and the kitchen was great to cook in! This last is not always the case in rentals, but this kitchen was well stocked and invited cooking. We could see the beach from the patio and living room. We explored some beautiful beaches by car, and overall, our group, ages 25-70, loved our time in this house and in this area of P.R.

It’s ok

House has a lot of great features, however we found it very difficult to sleep with the roosters, dogs and construction next door. Also the kitchen needs a deep clean and some replacements. I washed each item before using and felt like nonstick tools should have been available for the nonstick pans. Bring fans or noise machines and beach towels.

Great location

Place was spacious and the pool was awesome. Enjoyed the covered parking as it gave us a place to sit and bbq while it was raining. My only downside is that there were no cleaning supplies or paper products. This seemed to be a communication issue between the grounds keeper and the owner. The pool was scheduled to be cleaned twice during our stay but never was. The first time, he came to clean it while it was in use. The second time I don it believe he showed up. It probably should be scheduled for early morning or later in the evening. There wasn’t a chlorine tablet in the chlorine floating device. Also, with that many people, the two small garbage cans were not enough for all the garbage. Other than that I really enjoyed the property and would stay again.

Great Stay in Patillas

My family and I stayed in Patillas at Aida's house on PR3. The house was great and pool awesome. The house is just minutes from great beaches and other sites to visit. Make sure you shop at Rafa's Mini Market. They have everything you need if you forget to bring something. The people in the neighborhood are friendly. The restaurants are close, and the food is great. There are so many roadside restaurants to choose from, but make sure you bring your wallet, because some of the dishes are pricey. We had a great experience there and hope to go back in the future.

Beautiful Location

The location was breathtaking, you have the green forest view in the backyard and the ocean in the front. All the locals are so friendly. My kids had a blast in the pool. The only negatives that I have is the pool was not cleaned upon arrival. We arrived on Tuesday and the pool guy did not come until Thursday to clean it and the floor around the pool was pretty rough my kids had to wear socks while swimming because they had cuts from the rough surface. The manager was super nice.
