About this property

Historic Ocean Park Near Beach Water Reserve Fiber Internet Fast WiFi

Welcome to La Chiocciola Apt 3 — a stunning 3-bedroom apartment in a beautifully preserved 1940s colonial building in the heart of Ocean Park, one of San Juan's most sought-after addresses.
The original 1940s colonial tiles set the tone the moment you walk in — a nod to San Juan's rich architectural heritage. The fully refreshed kitchen and brand-new bathrooms ensure every modern comfort is at your fingertips. Each bedroom features a queen bed and air conditioning, and the living room includes a flat-screen TV and a queen sofa bed — comfortably accommodating up to 8 guests.
Step outside onto your private terrace and fire up the BBQ — the perfect setting for an evening under the Puerto Rican sky, with the warm breeze and the sound of the city all around you. One parking spot is available on-site (shared, first-come basis).
Location could not be better. Steps from the beach, walking distance to restaurants, supermarkets, and boutique shops, and just around the corner from the vibrant and colorful Loíza Street — one of San Juan's most beloved neighborhoods. A 24/7 supermarket is just 5 minutes away, a famous local breakfast spot is right around the corner, and La Placita de Santurce is only 5–7 minutes away — the heart of San Juan's nightlife and food scene. Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport is only 7 minutes away, making your arrival and departure completely stress-free.
This is not just a place to stay — it is a place to live San Juan like a local.

Air conditioning worked great and was very appreciated. Would like to see more photos on the listing. The apartment was well stocked with towels, cooler, kitchen basics, etc. Central location and near main roads, easy access. Used the washer and dyer and they worked well along with all appliances. Shower water was hard to keep in the proper area but water was hot!

This rental was PERFECT for our group of two couples and our adult daughter! The listing is very accurate with its three beds and two full bathrooms. Our course the patio was our favorite spot for morning coffees and evening cocktails. We were able to walk to many local eateries and catch an uber to everyplace we wanted to go within 10 minutes! We felt right at home in this quiet neighborhood! One last thing…the host has excellent communication and was gracious to allow for early checkin! I will DEFINITELY book again and refer this property to my travel clients!

Inside better visual than outside. Outside patio came in clutch & fit 7. AC was fine in rooms, not so great in main area. Walking distance to food options. First time to PR coming from Colorado so was slightly eye opening how run down the area is in general. This place was a good enough spot. Kids had to sleep on sofa bed which was in hot zone, so they weren’t stoked the whole time. Better spot for up to 3 couples for the rooms. Hot water was hit & miss. Driving in this town is an unforgettable adventure. These folks here do not care about right of way & parking etiquette. We had a huge van for 7. Sketchy every time out. Uber if you can swing it.

Thank you for your feedback — we're glad the terrace worked well for your whole group! For future guests reading this: our apartment is designed to be both family-friendly and full-service. The fully equipped kitchen, complimentary coffee, sugar, and pantry basics, soaps, toiletries, and beach towels are all included — no nickel-and-diming, no restrictions. San Juan is currently experiencing citywide water and electricity challenges. Our property runs on a private generator, rooftop cisterns, and a dual water heating system specifically to protect our guests from these disruptions. If there was ever any uncertainty about the hot water, our team is always available — though no issues were reported at any point during the stay. The living area opens directly to the private terrace by design, and extra fans are available for comfort in that space. We'll be honest — a 3-star rating is a surprise for us. With over 700 reviews and a 4.7 average maintained across platforms as a consistent Superhost, we hold ourselves to a high standard. No concerns were raised during the stay, which made this review unexpected. We always encourage guests to reach out in the moment — it's always the best way to ensure a great experience. We hope you enjoyed Ocean Park and will give Puerto Rico another visit

About the host

Hosted by cristian crostelli

Host profile image
Hi, I am Cristian, originally from Italy and now proud to call San Juan my home. After years in the restaurant business here in Puerto Rico, I decided to share my love for this magical island by opening La Chiocciola Apt — a collection of carefully curated apartments in the heart of Santurce.
For me, hosting is not just a business — it is a way to connect people with the real soul of San Juan. I want every guest to feel at home, explore the neighborhood like a local, and leave with memories that last a lifetime.
I am always available to help with recommendations, tips, or anything you need to make your stay unforgettable. Welcome to Puerto Rico — I cannot wait to host you!

Why they chose this property

Santurce is the beating heart of San Juan — a neighborhood where history, art, food, and beach culture all come together in the most authentic way. I chose this neighborhood because it offers guests the best of everything: world-class restaurants, vibrant street art, the famous Loíza Street just steps away, and beautiful beaches within walking distance. It is the perfect base to experience Puerto Rico like a true local.

What makes this property unique

La Chiocciola Apt stands out for its rare combination of historic charm and modern comfort. Our apartments feature original 1940s colonial tiles that tell the story of old Puerto Rico, paired with fully updated kitchens, new bathrooms, and all the modern amenities you need. Add a private terrace, free parking, fiber optic WiFi, and a location that puts you steps from the beach and everything San Juan has to offer — and you have a truly one-of-a-kind experience.
