Thank you for your review. As we are in the holiday season in Puerto Rico, unfortunately the music comes with the area as well as the fact that we are in a beach area. Happy to hear you enjoy the stay otherwise we look forward to helping you in the future.

I would suggest a few small improvements to further enhance the guest experience. The existing outdoor rinse area is a great feature; however, installing a proper showerhead or fixture would make it much more convenient for guests to rinse off after returning from the beach.In addition, adding a hose to an outdoor spigot would be very helpful, allowing guests to easily rinse sand off their feet, sandals, and beach or diving equipment with better control and direction.Providing a toaster oven would also be a valuable amenity for light cooking and added convenience during longer stays.Overall, the property is in an excellent location,very close to the beach,and is especially ideal for those interested in scuba diving, with a dive shop nearby.

Clean and spacious home with private pool! We stayed 4 nights in December and found the house very comfortable with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. We loved the private pool and beach amenities provided (even a wagon to transport items!). The A/C worked great, having a washer and dryer was convenient and there were TVs in all the rooms. The beach is a short walk away and there are several restaurants within walking distance. A car is highly recommended to explore the area and pick up groceries, etc. Highly recommend!

We stayed for a week and it was great! The pool is beautiful and the lights and waterfall add to the esthetic. The fully stocked beach cart was a huge help while taking the 5 minute walk to Cerro Gordo beach. Coconut Beach Club across the street serves up good food and even better drinks! The staff, especially Carla, were accommodating and very nice. George responded quickly to questions and concerns and suggested a local spot for brunch. The house is centrally located and within walking distance of various businesses and restaurants. A great trip and beautiful home!

Home was super clean, towels and bedding clean and fresh. Anything I needed or had a question with I got a very quick response through the communication from Vrbo AP. Less than 10 minute walk to the beach. House had wagon cart with beach chairs, umbrella, accessories etc. We had our 30th wedding anniversary with our adult children and their husbands and had a great time. Definitely will recommend and will plan to come back. Thank You!

Noise/camaras

House was very clean and comfortable, the neighborhood bar and grill had music on very loud some days until 2 am. And construction next door started at 6 am , so 7 nights lil sleep. Also we limit our use of the pool due to many cameras over the pool , felt like ( big brother watching you) if you like noise and been watch 24/7 this place is for you.

Sorry for you experience which has not been the norm for our guests. Description does indicate our use of cameras as they are for security and not entertainment. We do not monitor cameras unless there is a concern from guest(s) on premises as we are not on site. The construction next door is complete, however had we known m, we could have addressed with the team. It’s a beach area and can tend to get loud at certain times or weekends. We wish you would have communicated these concerns so we could have addressed. Thank you for considering us and all the best in your future travels.

Perfection in Puerto Rico!

This beach house is just an amazing place! Honestly the pictures do not do it justice. Probably taken with the windows closed. The house is airy, beds were comfy, kitchen was roomy well appointed (no oven, but there is a microwave and gas stove top). And so clean!!! The best part is the wonderful pool and outdoor pool table. There are many amazing lizard friends that we enjoyed looking at as well as the CoQui frogs that sang us to sleep-bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper. If you are looking for a resort vacation, this is not your VRBO! We wanted to live, eat and beach with the locals and this house provided everything we wanted! We will definitely be coming back!

Wonderful host!

Our family of five traveled to Puerto Rico for a vacation and stayed in this adorable house. When we were supposed to leave, Hurricane Fiona hit and we were stranded due to flight cancelations. Luckily our host George had kept in contact with us throughout our entire stay, and he was very gracious to not only let us extend our stay but discounted the fee. There are not enough words to express my gratitude for this seemingly simple thing. As a tourist stranded with my family during a national disaster it was simply a blessing to not worry about where we would ride out the storm. The property had a generator so we didn't lose power for even a moment. And even throughout the storm George constantly checked up on us, asking how we were fairing and if we needed provisions. Even if I didn't love the property (which we did, especially the pool and hammock) I would recommend George as a host!! Five star experience!!

Great comfortable getaway near the beach

We had an amazing time at the Cerro Gordo beach house. Our host George was immediately responsive to every question we had, and the check-in and check-out processes couldn't be smoother. The property has everything we needed and more. The private pool is clean and big enough for our family of 5 to enjoy. The well-equipped patio has a grill, a pool table, a cart with beach chairs and an umbrella, and a portable domino table. Again, plenty of room to stretch out. As for indoors, it was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Nearly full kitchen (no oven). The only downside is that the bathrooms are a bit small and the showers do not have much pressure. But for as little time as we spent indoors, we did not consider that a deal breaker and would gladly stay here again. The short walk to the beach does pass some run-down houses, but this entire property is surrounded by a fence and wall, with a lockable driveway gate, so we felt safe and secure at all times. Thank you for a memorable vacation!

Burst of LOVE EVERYWHERE!

First of all, we never have been to Vega Alta before and we loved it! Convenient to air port, Walmart, neighborhood cafes and bakeries and gas stations too! The gates at the entrance of the property is a great feature of privacy and the landscaping is gorgeous! The house is breathtaking and you can tell she’s loved!!! When you go into the house it’s bursting with love and by that I mean they thought of almost everything! They have Good linens, towels, pool towels, beach blankets, coffee, left us some snacks, shampoo, conditioner and body wash, I mean it’s laid out like a 5 Star hotel with a gorgeous pool and everything you need to retreat in the back patio! First aid kit and cards too:) My favorite was the washer and the dryer! Everything was so nice and clean and the AC and ceiling fans are perfect! When we needed our host, he responded immediately, thanks George! You better book this one fast, because we want to keep going back! Thank you George and family for making us feel so welcomed and we felt the love of the beach house!

Misleading

It has been the worst experience i have had absolutely misleading. The pictures are very well taken. The host forgot to send us the password to enter the property i took us six phone calls to get access to the house. the cameras are pointing directly to the where you are laying next to the pool. There is absolutely no room for any storage so if you are planning to stay here more than to days you will have to leave your luggage in the living room. Pool table its not maintain. Grill was duty, and if you want to use the pool there is nothing to clean it. And good luck with the hammock. Absolutely the worst

Response from VrboOwner on 23 June 2023
Firstly we sorry you had this experience, to date we have had nothing but positive feedback. Part of the breakdown is how you communicated. We explained that we communicate through the app and as soon as we got the text you got a call. You never sent any follow up message to the app to allow us the opportunity to address your concerns instead you texted pictures to a secondary number that does not monitor messages and left the home. If you had reached out via the app as my other clients have attested, you would have received an immediate response and we would have addressed your concerns. As far as some of your concerns, since it is a smaller home we make effective use of space. To your concern around storage, there is storage provided under the beds to minimize clutter in the rooms. As for the cameras, it’s is clearly indicated in the description and they are for security not for our personal entertainment. They are not monitored but rather used if clients have a concern since we are off site. All of this would have been ameliorated if you had reached out appropriately. You never gave us the chance and that is why we are here. We hope you enjoyed the rest of your stay in Puerto Rico, as we will be enjoying our home in the near future. Ironically our current guest who just checked in stated “ this place is amazing”. We are not sure what you expected as you never communicated this to us and we did not have the chance to show you why we have 5 star ratings. All the best to you. For future renters, beware. Save yourself the headache of the poor communication and complaints. I would not rent again to this person. They are certainly “Absolutely the worst” guest we have had to date.

Amazing!!!!!!

The house was amazing we love it a lot everything was very organized and very clean. One of the issues we had was the refrigerator starts leaking inside and outside the floor in front of the refrigerator we had to mop it because it was wet and slippery. The inside of the refrigerator was also wet our items we bring were wet. The refrigerator needs to be checked and fix future guess visit the house. Another issue we noticed the gate when we leave the place and go out it constantly scraped the muffler of the car that’s big issue someone who came to visit us did the same thing to the car that can messed up and damage the car that needs to be fixed it doesn’t damage other people cars they come and visit the house. Overall everything went well we had great time at the house near future we will go back again thank you so much having us in the we appreciate it a lot.
