Other Things to Note



📌 Early Check in and late Check out are subject to availability. An additional fee of $15/hour will be applied if it can be accommodated. Our cleaning and management team work very hard to ensure a quality experience, so we appreciate your understanding. 

📌 Please note that this is not a hotel or resort, but a private residence. Amenity refills/additional cleanings will not be available unless specifically arranged prior to booking. This will be at additional cost and based on availability. 

🇵🇷 Puerto Rico is a tropical island, and its infrastructure is not like the United States.

⚡ Power and water outages happen on occasion, though its rare for outages to last more than a couple hours. 

🔋 This property has a backup cistern that can last up to a few days, but we are not in control of any outages, and cannot offer refunds due to outages. Also, wildlife such as lizards and bugs are common throughout the island, especially after a rain or during rainy season. 

📌 We take preventative measures to reduce the likelihood of encountering these critters. However, if you come across one, it is not out of the realm of possibility, and we cannot offer refunds due to this. The best way to prevent these critters is to properly store away food and dispose of trash.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned apartment, which has a kitchen.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

The apartment was just as described and comfortable for 2 people sharing a bed. The common areas were fantastic and loved having that extra. The AC worked great. The neighborhood was safe and close to the beach. Easy to access through gated entrance. There was a small cooler available which was great for beach trips!
