This house is great for a group! Beautiful views, big open space to hang out, fully equipped kitchen, 5 comfortable bedrooms and the nicest hostess who went above and beyond for us. Highly recommend!

My family and I enjoyed Diane's luxury oceanfront home. There was plenty of space for my family of 8. The views were amazing. She has went above and beyond to provide amenities for our family to help us be comfortable throughout our stay. The home is located less than 10 mins from several beaches, we were able to visit 2 of them. Would recommend for anyone traveling to Puerto Rico and wants to stay somewhere that provides a serene environment and peaceful experience.

This stunning home has it all! If you're looking for a view, you cannot do better. It's feet from the water and there is tons of outdoor seating on the main level and upstairs to enjoy the 180 degree views. The bedrooms are all spacious and the beds/bedding/pillows are some of the most comfy I've experienced. The bathrooms are plentiful and modern. The home itself is nicely laid out, beautifully decorated and has all the amenities you will need - more extras than I have ever seen. The gated community is very safe and close to restaurants. Check in and out and communication were so quick and easy. Steps to the beach are right next to the home. I highly recommend this home!!

If anyone wants to visit Puerto Rico I recommend this 5 star plus property. You will find absolutely everything you need. You feel like you are in your own home. The service of the owners was incredible, attentive to all our needs and then the place was incredibly beautiful, the beach was perfect, the views were luxurious and the gated and secure community. El Dorado is an incredible place so therefore I tell you. This is the property that you should rent. I am already making my next arrangements to visit the island of enchantment again and of course in this beautiful property. Diane Thank you very much for everything.

Our stay at this gorgeous house was wonderful! The place is clean and spacious, beautifully decorated, well stocked with quality materials. The deck is so spacious and is furnished for a large group. The host stayed in communication with us for the whole duration and answered any questions we had. She also allowed us to checkout as late as we wanted. I would love to book this place again.

The home is amazing. As other reviews stated, the photos don’t capture the home’s beauty. The views are amazing, the beach is a 1 min walk, and each room is beautifully decorated. Both patios provide a variety of seating (or lounging) options to soak in the ocean views and sounds. The host proactively engaged with us to ensure our stay was enjoyable.

Ten family members stayed together for five days in this lovely beach house. The house was roomy, immaculate and just plain beautiful. The kitchen was well stocked and very functional. The deck overlooked a rocky beach with ocean waves crashing just in front of the house. The adjacent sandy beach was perfect for swimming and sun bathing. My sister-in-law, who was with us, is trying to book the house for another stay. All-in-all, this was a wonderful experience.

We had an amazing time! We rented it for a family reunion and it couldnt have been more perfect. The house is beautiful and so spacious. It has everything that you might need during your stay. It is steps away from a private and beautiful beach. Diane is so attentive, she was in constant communication with us to make sure everything was ok! Would definitely recommend 10/10! Can’t wait to plan out next trip and go back!

The house was beyond our expectations. Diane did everything to personalize our stay and make us feel so welcome. She is an amazing host and so thoughtful. She even brought stuff for our baby to make our stay easy. She made the adults and kids feel so welcome. We had 3 coupes, a baby and 2 kids. Everyone had an amazing time. We have stayed in many rentals but Diane’s place was by far the best experience we’ve had.

We had a fantastic stay, the house is beautiful. The view is even more beautiful than the pictures do justice. It is in a gated community with a beach just out the door and down some stairs that we basically had to ourselves. It is close to a great hiking trail just to the west, the town around the house has some great restaurants. The owner is extremely attentive and communicates throughout. We had a cracked coffee carafe and she was there a couple of hours later with a new coffee maker. You will not feel neglected. It's a wonderful place to relax and a great jumping off point to go explore Puerto Rico. We will visit again. Thanks Diane!

We stayed in Diane's Oceanfront Dorado house for a 40th birthday trip for ten college friends and the house was perfect! Not only is the location amazing, with sweeping ocean views from nearly every part of the house, but Diane was a wonderful host who went above and beyond. She provided us with so many details and recommendations before arriving and even went the extra mile to make it a special weekend, setting us up with a birthday surprise! The house was clean, beds were comfortable and everything was as pictured. We were steps away from the beach and the location was close to everything we hoped to see! You can hear the ocean from several rooms in the house, so we chose bedrooms accordingly, as some of us enjoyed that. Would recommend this house wholeheartedly. Thanks for a great stay and a wonderful birthday celebration, Diane!

The house and setting are gorgeous. Very well equipped and clean, the house is roomy and open to the decks on both levels. The beach is only stair steps away. All the upstairs bedrooms open to a terrace overlooking the ocean. They call this paradise for a reason. Diane, the host and owner, is amazingly accessible and really goes out of her way to answer questions about restaurants, beaches, and interesting things to see and do. No question was too much and she responds to texts quickly. This was our first trip to Puerto Rico, and she helped us out so much. She is a gem!!

This home the picture does not do justice. The house is absolutely stunning in person and the owner went out of her way to make the beach house like it was your home anything you need from kitchen things to everyone having their own robe in each bathroom, to having not one or two beach chairs and beach towels but well over 10 chairs to accommodate everyone in the house we are so happy we chose this beautiful house and we will definitely come back again and her price is very affordable. There are places that are not even on the beach and not as beautiful as her house three times the amount. Thank you so much for offering. Such a beautiful beach home for my family. We haven’t made great memories there. !!!

We loved our time here and it was the best VRBO experience we have ever had. The pictures do not fully capture how beautiful this location is. The house is equipped with everything you need to enjoy the space and the beach. It is clean and the decor shows the care put into this home. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside for all travelers to sit together or separate when you need your own space. Diane was an amazing host providing us with so much information about the area and things to do that really helped to make our trip one we will never forget. We truly appreciate all she did for us. The beach area is quiet and perfect for travelers of all ages. We stayed with 6 people ages 9-82 and everyone LOVED our time here. The Dorado area had many great restaurant options and any of things we wanted to do were a reasonable driving distance (~45 minutes to San Juan; ~1.5 hours to Rainforest, Fajardo). We enjoyed our time at the house so much it made it hard to leave! We can’t wait to visit again. Your only regret will be not booking this location.

WOW WOW WOW! What else is there to say that hasn't already been said? 5 Stars all around. I knew the property was special from the listing. Diane is the ultimate host. The house is furnished with top notch amenities, linens and towels and the beds are amazing. The art work and decor is beautiful. Diane answered every question sometimes before I even asked! She has the system perfected and will make you want for nothing. there wasn't anything that we went looking for that we didn't find. Just perfect! The Dorado area is uniquely beautiful and you feel like you are in a tropical paradise. The price might seem high but comparatively speaking it it a bargain. This is our third trip to Puerto Rico and by far was our best experience. Ubers are very reasonable if you are traveling to San Juan. My son was married in Old San Juan and we had a rental car but still relied in Uber on many occasions. Just book this magnificent property if you have the opportunity, you will love it! Thanks for everything Diane!

This is a magical place. We were a family of 10 (5 adult couples) and fit super comfortably. Over the years we have experienced many vacation rentals, condos, houses, etc and this is what the top looks like. Depending on which family member you asked, you'd get a different reason why the house is so special. Some liked the rooms with vistas out onto the ocean blue, others liked the big terrace with palm trees growing through it, easy beach access, solitude (neighbor houses weren't being used), the decor, modern amenities and you can't forget Diane, the host. I've worked in the hotel industry for 20 years and she is a professional. It is obvious through our various communications that she goes above and beyond in order to make sure her guests are well taken care of and have what they need. Today I asked my dad (a man of few words) if he liked Puerto Rico. He said yes, followed by, I really liked the house. If you are looking for a large place that's RIGHT on the water, within 45 minutes of San Juan, and a 5 minute drive to restaurants and grocery stores, look no further. Because of its relative seclusion, better to have a car. Not impossible to use taxis and ubers, but you will have to wait 20 to 30 minutes. I miss it already. We will be back. Thank you Diane!

We had a fabulous trip at this beautifully equipped and decorated property. Great communication with host Diana. Our trip consistent of 8 adults, visiting family on the island. Location was great, easy access to stores/restaurants. Beach is just a few steps away, with surprisingly good snorkeling and beautiful elkhorn coral reef. Snorkeling gear is provided along with beach towels/chairs/life vests. The kitchen has all the necessary amenities. We ate out on 2 evenings and grilled at home the rest of the stay. Having access to 2 refrigerators was nice to plan for a larger group. Plenty of seating for a larger gathering. We were able to host 14 people for dinner one evening. The main floor of the house does have a couple of steps from the main entrance/master bedroom and the main dining room that can be unsafe for anyone with mobility or eyesight issues but we had no trouble with this. This area on island continues to suffer from power outages, even on clear days so having a working generator at the house was necessary. The generator is powerful enough to be able to comfortably stay indoors while power returns. Small crabs occasionally make it into the house which are fun to watch. Outdoor deck has spectacular views and great space for morning stretches/yoga. Yoga mats would be a great addition. No hot tub or bicycles as on initial listing but this has been fixed. Our stay was exceptional, and we would again eagerly stay at Diana's gorgeous beachside property in a heartbeat.

Traveled to Puerto Rico with 9 family members for Spring Break and this was the perfect house for all of our needs. Fantastic location in Dorado and an easy drive from San Juan. The house has such incredible views and multiple decks to enjoy them from. There are 4 bedrooms upstairs and a lovely living room. Large sundeck accessible from the living room and two of the bedrooms. One bedroom even has a shower located outside. It’s the only place you can get a tan while showering! Downstairs has one large master bedroom off the front entry. It has a large kitchen with a breakfast nook and a small room off the kitchen with additional space for meal prep. The refrigerator was well stocked with condiments and even some wine and beer from prior guests. Dining room seats 8 easily or even 10 if needed. Living room opens out to a massive deck with plenty of furniture for the entire family. There’s even a bar with a refrigerator just off the dining room. This house was very well stocked for all of our needs and especially well stocked for the beach, which was an easy walk down the stairs just off the driveway. We had plenty of towels, beach chairs, a couple of blow up floating lounge chairs, a kayak, paddle board and even snorkeling equipment. The tide pools just below the house were fun to explore. Diane, the owner, was amazing. She was very communicative, made us feel like family and responded to every question we had. Will definitely return to Puerto Rico and this beautiful home.
