The location of the house was close to all - Old San Juan, local restaurants, Walgreens, Walmart, and most of all the beach.Thank you for allowing us to use the cooler and beach pails for my 3 yr old grandson.The host answered my questions right away. Very accommodating. Thank you very much for our stay!

This home is exactly as described and fit our needs perfectly. We were looking for something just outside the main tourist areas but also convenient and close to the things we wanted to do - and this residential area was just the right fit. As long as you know how to parallel park, the street parking is no problem at all. One thing I didn’t see mentioned in other reviews are the neighborhood roosters. Bonus if you want to get an early start to your day! But not so loud that you can’t sleep through the sunrise crowing if you were down the street at Bonanza a bit too late the night before. Wonderful experience, wonderful hosts, wonderful casita.

We had such an amazing experience!! It is a beautiful decorated house, very comfortable and with more items that you’ll ever need.Only issue is if you decide to rent a car, parking is not very accessible and you will need to park on the side streets. The streets can get very packed as that’s where the cars for those house park. The right side of the house is easier as the other side is very tight and has more house.Our hosts were more than accommodating, had some snacks for us, and were amazing! Absolutely recommend and if I return to San Juan, I will definitely stay there.

5 Stars

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful 3-bedroom home in San Juan! The house was spacious, clean, and exactly as described in the listing. Each bedroom was comfortable and well-appointed, and the common areas were perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.Highly recommend this place for families or groups of 3 looking for something other than a high-rise stay or apartment in Puerto Rico.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this charming San Juan property! From the moment we arrived, the hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. They were incredibly responsive, provided excellent local recommendations, and truly made us feel welcomed and cared for throughout our entire visit.The house itself is absolutely adorable – beautifully decorated with thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home away from home. Everything was clean, comfortable, and exactly as pictured. The location couldn't be better! We were able to walk to so many amazing restaurants, cafes, and attractions. Being within walking distance of the hot spots meant we could easily explore the vibrant neighborhood without worrying about transportation. It was the perfect home base for our San Juan adventure.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone visiting San Juan. Thank you for such a memorable experience!

Breather in Santurce

Amazing time we had in San Juan. Santurce was super fun and fun. Really close to a lot of places we visited (Calle Loiza, Old San Kuan, Condido, Isle Verde, Loiza). We rented a car so it was easy to get around. Carrie and Ryan and baby Nolan were great hosts even leaving us the kindest note and dulces. My personal favorite part was the outside shower. Their home was neat and clean., Everything was so great and perfect. Can’t wait to come back!

Good place to stay

Our stay in the home went well. There was an unexpected problem with the plumbing but the owners responded right away (their plumber was a great guy). The neighborhood is nice, with good coffee and ice cream shops walkable distances away. There was loud music in the evening but not late into the night. The house is so stocked as listed. I strongly recommend frequent use of the outdoor shower.

La casita Verde

My family & I stayed here it was a group of 5 . They had everything we needed . Sunscreen , towels , water . Gave us complimentary Jell-O shots they were amazing along with a six pack of beer . Everything was very clean . The two rooms towards the back were very hot no AC units in them but we bought fans for both rooms & it was fine . Parking was alittle difficult to find but we made it work . Would definitely recommend anyone to book here . Can’t wait to come back . Everything was very close to us . 10/10 experience.

Getting real in San Juan, PR

The perfect place to land for our adventurous, long weekend! The colorful green house is super tidy, well appointed and just as cheerful as advertised. Centrally located to all of our activities (rainforest, beach and Old San Juan), it was a pleasure to be immersed in an area that was more genuine to experiencing Puerto Rico rather than a sterile resort area. Just a note for light sleepers - the house sits close to a busy city street and sometimes vehicles are not so quiet as they pass by so be prepared! A genuinely fantastic experience my sisters and I would be pleased to repeat.

Exactly as advertised!

If you’re looking for a unique, Puerto Rican flavored, clean, three bedroom, nicely stocked kitchen home, well this is it. My family didn’t want to stay in the sterile American resort area. We wanted to get a truer feel of Puerto Rico. The neighborhood is older and one of the poorer In the city, but we always felt safe even with our two young beautiful daughters. The only negative of the home is the street in front that can be very loud at night. I would use the fans in the middle bedroom closet as white noise mostly for the front bedroom, which is closest to the street. For our week there, we rented a car and traveled all over the island. We found the people be extremely kind and hospitable.

Great home, everything as described

The home was great, very clean and as described. The 1/2 bath is an outdoor shower. Our own fault that we didn't read it better in the description, as we were 3 couples one bathroom to share was a challenge, but nothing to do with the home itself. We just didn't read that part! The owner was easy to chat with on access, the place was immaculate and clean, air conditioning worked excellent. My only suggestion to other guests is research the area to ensure it has the restaurants or bars you are looking for, though Uber is a fantastic option for getting around if you aren't finding the food or bars you are looking for in the neighborhood.

Best Birthday Ever !

I absolutely fell in love with this house the moment I laid eyes on it ! The amount of creativity and personality this house has inside and out is amazing . So much art and funny signs that made me smile or laugh everyday . This house had EVERYTHING we needed and as someone who loves to clean and is OCD it made me so happy to see all the cleaning supplies the house came with including beach items . I didn’t have to buy much but food . Location wise this house is super convenient you can walk or take a quick 5-10 minute Uber to a lot of locations such as Calle Loiza (amazing breakfast spots) . I also felt very safe my whole stay here the neighborhood is very friendly and if you have any question people are more then happy to help . Thank you again my amazing host for being so thoughtful and always communicating back .I will definitely be booking this house again !! See you guys soon

Great place!

We had such a wonderful time at this home! It was immaculately clean and stocked with everything we needed, from household essentials to beach gear, making our stay so convenient and stress-free. The neighborhood was vibrant and easily walkable, with a couple of corner stores, local restaurants (check out El Huevo for breakfast/brunch you won't be disappointed!), and even a bar just a 5-minute walk away (and yes, $5 drinks!). The area itself is lively, with locals playing music throughout the day, which added a fun cultural vibe. Thankfully, the noise usually quieted down just in time for bed, so it didn’t interfere with our rest. The house was exactly as shown in the photos—absolutely adorable and thoughtfully decorated. A quick note: the avocado bedroom does not have AC but does include two fans, and if you keep the door open to the living room, it stays comfortably cool. Parking was a bit tricky to find, but that seemed to be a common theme throughout the island, so just a heads-up if you’re planning to drive. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Highly recommend this gem if you’re looking for a great mix of comfort, convenience, and local flavor!
