Garden Hideaway- nestled between Rainforest and the Beach surrounded in nature

Welcome to our beautiful Garden getaway, located as the lower unit of a two unit house, with private parking and private entrance in the front of the house. Walk into your open air large kitchen, cook on the grill OR the stove. Grab your chilled bottle of wine from the wine fridge and go relax on the couch swing. Let the forest sounds lull you into a blissful vacation trance.

This property is in a private neighborhood that is close to the rainforest (about 10 min away) AND the Beach (about 10 min away). It is also less than an hour to drive to San Juan. *We do recommend having a car at this location for travel freedom. This property is the lower level of a two story home. The upstairs is also a vacation rental (Happy Hour Hideaway), that has a separate entrance and parking area. It is possible you will hear or meet other guests during your stay.

Both bedrooms are inside with their own lock-able door. Inside the bedrooms is a large King size bed, Air Conditioning and a TV. We recommend you keep the doors closed as this is a tropical island and you are at the foot of the rain forest and there are mosquitos and other insects. The house does receive pest maintenance but being this space is open air it is important to keep sleeping spaces as pest free as possible by closing the doors.

There are two bathrooms, both with a spa like shower. There is use of laundry on the back patio of the house. This is the area shared with other guests, along with the Large side yard next to the house, where you can find, coconuts and parcha (passion fruit) and Avocados when in season. The living room is equipped with its own television, and comfortable furniture and a large Porch Swing perfect for napping on.

Enjoy the sounds of the rain forest, like the Coqui and different birds and lizards, *don't be surprised if an iguana traipse through the yard. There are also many free roaming chickens and roosters as well as the neighbors own flocks. There are also some sweet neighborhood cats roaming about occasionally. The downstairs is fenced in so it is rare they come into the space.

*The upstairs f the house is a separate unit rented by other travelers

Amazing location, gracious hosts!!
The location of this property is perfect, at the foot of El Yunque rainforest and about 10 minutes from Laquillo Beach. The home is sparkling clean and abundantly furnished for a beach vacation with beach chairs, umbrellas, towels and a even a cooler for your use. The hosts are extremely thoughtful and responsive. They have a welcome book with recommendations for local food and activities. You will have to deal with mosquitos, but that is the scenario anywhere in PR. At this location, the considerate hosts provide plenty of citronella and insect repellent. The landscape of the property is stunning. I 100% recommend this location for your stay, I can't wait to return!

Beautiful, unique, & memorable
This home is even more beautiful than the photos and faces a lovely yard. The bedrooms were spacious and very clean. The outdoor kitchen and living/dining room were unique, comfortable, and well-appointed. The swing sofa is amazing! We were a little nervous having our children in a separate bedroom with an exterior door, but the house is secure and in a very nice neighborhood. The mosquitos can be bad at times, but ample bug spray, candles and coils are provided. The communication was excellent and smooth. The binder of local information and recommendations was appreciated. (It would be even better if it was sent ahead of time!) We loved staying here and wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Great beach and El Yunque property
Mary is an excellent host. The property is big with 2 large bedrooms and an outdoor kitchen area. There was everything that we needed for our stay, in fact more than I can remember from other stays. There is easy access to the beach and rain forest and it is located in a secure estate. The only challenge was the mosquitos which we had expected being close to the rain forest

Great Place to Stay
Great Location near the Beach and Highway for getting anywhere you needed to go. I've never stayed in Open Living Quarters. It was very different and I so enjoyed it. It is just as pictured. They even had Nice Beach Chairs for you to use during your stay. Hope to come back next year and stay again. Gail
