The property was very clean, tastefully decorated (with Christmas decorations as well) furniture was very nice and comfortable. The outdoors areas were nice with a lot of plants, you could tell there was pride of ownership with this home. There are many restaurants within walking distance and a few shops. We had a lot of fun believe or not down the street at the Gulf gas station. They have a outdoor bar that alot of locals come to. All extremely friendly. I would not hesitate recommending this property and will stay again. ##### Aaron A. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Priscilla R. Jul 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Every comfort you can think of at the edge of the forest Carmen and Gabriel thought of just about everything to make for a comfortable stay, and were attentive and responsive hosts. First off, the property literally is on the edge of the forest as described - exiting out the back gate gets you there. In addition the standard amenities, they had beach chairs and towels, laundry detergent (to use on the full-size washer and dryer), an impressive first-aid kit, lanterns, a folding crib, many extra linens and towels, toiletries, ear plugs, etc. I've not seen such a thoroughly-equipped property before. A welcome gift with note was a wonderful touch. There really wasn't much more we could ask for. Additionally, we had an issue with lack of running water, they responded immediately and had the issue resolved within minutes of having contacted them. Gabriel even gave us a tour of the backyard, explaining the different plants and trees, and offering to take us on a guided tour of the forest. Communication with the hosts was excellent, starting from the minute we booked months before our stay, and responding to each inquiry along the way. The property is conveniently located within the greater San Juan metro area. I would choose to stay here again. ##### Priscilla R. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gail P o., South Haven, MI Jan 25, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Orchids and Baseball! From prompt and thoughtful communication with our hosts, to comfort, layout, cleanliness, and privacy for each of the three of us( 46, 77, and 78 years old) ,this property met all our needs. The futon in the office bedroom was very comfortable, and it was great to have bedside lighting for those who read in bed, as well as overhead lighting in the bedrooms. The outdoor area with Alicia's garden (fascinating for a family from Michigan) was lovely with plenty of shade, and access to the urban forest behind the house with easy trails was an added bonus. Nearby access to major highways allowed us to travel out of San Juan easily to other areas. Take time in the garden to notice all the flowering plants and trees and how they are potted, and watch for the Puerto Rican birds that we don't see at home. We had wonderful conversations with Gabriel about flora and fauna, local restaurants and food, recreation opportunities all over the island, music, history and culture, development of the urban forest, and we especially appreciated advice about the four day San Sebastian Festival (Sanse) that took place during our visit. We came for the Puerto Rican Winter League Baseball Finals and wound up enjoying the welcoming friendly people who shared their stories and culture as well. Thank you so much to the best hosts for adding an extra layer of enjoyment to our trip. ##### Gail P o.
