This tropical hidden paradise is located in the small quaint town of Loiza. It is located approximately 25 minutes east of the Luis Munoz Marin International Airport. It is a small traditional town rich in Afro-Puerto Rican culture. Loiza is famous for its cultural traditions and “La Bomba,” a traditional dance that originated in Loiza and dates back to the 17th century. La Bomba is still widely practiced in PR, it is considered a heritage staple. There is a reason why this small dainty town is commonly referred to as the town where “tradition never dies.” There are dance rehearsals every Saturday at Puente Herrera showcased in our Guidebook and is only a 3-minute drive or quick brisk walk from the complex, so feel the beat, it is an electrifying experience you wont want to miss during your stay.

San Juan, Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 is a fairly short 35-minute drive from this town and another major attraction is El Yunque, which is an approximate 15-20 minute east drive from the complex. We are so close to El Yunque that you can see its picturesque mountains from the complex and its lush green gardens. You will also spot plenty of parrots and butterflies on our grounds, it really is a true paradise you will never forget!🦋

Disclaimer Note: Loss of power and/or water during your stay may occur due to natural occurrences or issues with local utility companies. Issues that are out of the host's control will be worked tediously by host; however, host will not be held accountable for such events. Peak hurricane season dates are 10-15 September, and hurricane season ends November 30th. The good news is that we are past peak season, and we have been very fortunate missing any major hurricanes this year (2024). However, as a precautionary measure consider travel insurance during the remainder of this season.

Absolutely Wonderful!
We had an amazing time during our stay! Carmen was a wonderful host and her property was amazing! She was very thoughtful and provided many useful items like sunscreen, towels, bug spray, pool and sand toys and many other items. It was close to the beach and the beach was always very clean and beautiful. There were several local eateries and hidden beaches that we enjoyed going to. I would happily stay here again!!

Wonderful condo next to the beach!
My family really enjoyed our stay at your condo! My 14 year old and 11 year old loved the beach toys and boogie boards at the beach. My husband and I appreciated the multiple beach towels, chairs and cooler. The view from the porch is outstanding and we loved watching the waves, the birds and lizards. The condo was very clean and the kitchen was well stocked. The location was great since it was a short drive to the rainforest and San Juan. Carmen is an excellent host and provided us with clear instructions and great recommendations.

Phenomenal Property
Our family stayed at this property for 10 days, and it was an incredible experience. The property itself is very clean and modern, and is located in a gated community with access to five pools, basketball/tennis courts, and a mini golf course. This specific condo is also about 100 ft from the beach. Our kids (9 & 7) had an amazing time! However, the absolute highlight of the trip was our host, Carmen. She was incredibly responsive to any request, offering proactive suggestions of places to stay, restaurants, even updates on traffic challenges we might see that day because of what was going on within the island. We also experienced some flight issues at the end of the stay and she was very proactive in helping us navigate our check out which really took the stress out of the problem. Which went a long way in helping us take care of our kids. I would strongly recommend staying here. We’ve stayed at dozens of VRBO properties and this was by far our best experience. You will want to stay here because the property is incredible, and afterwards you’ll be happy you did because of Carmen. 5 stars all around!

Serenity! This was an amazing find for my three sisters and I for a 5 night stay. Great location to El Yunque (hiking and Junglequi), Bioluminescence Kayaking at Laguna Grande, Salsa Dance lessons and Old San Juan, Sailing & Snorkeling out of Fajardo and massages at Chispa in Luquillo. All activities within 45 minutes. Best place to eat: LaParrilla in Luqiluillo (shop there instead of Old San Juan for souvenirs-same things for sale, way less crowded). The VRBO’s porch looks directly north at the ocean. Every morning coffee and peace. The three bedrooms and two bathrooms were perfect for the 4 of us. The washer & dryer were used frequently as it is humid in PR. Beach towels and bath towels were plentiful. You are steps away from a “almost” private beach for the Aquátika. Local bar and empanadas just on the west side of the beach for a quick bite and beverage. We all felt safe and welcomed from the moment we checked in to the time we checked out. I would not hesitate to recommend to any families. This was not a “party” location. Host responded quickly to any questions we had.

Great place- clean and very convenient
Really great place, located at the very north end of the property by the beach. It would have been great to have more comfortable chairs or couch on the patio, and the hallway bath shower tends to allow water to seep across the floor (needs to be sealed at the base) but otherwise no complaints! Very clean, well equipped, beds pretty comfortable.

Puerto Rico First Trip
First time traveling to Puerto Rico. We have spent the first three days of our vacation in Carmen’s apartment in the Aquatica resort. The place was clean, comfortable and had all the essentials. The terrace is overlooking the ocean. All pools are close by. My kids enjoyed the beach and the water a lot. Very nice place for a family vacation! Communication with Carmen was excellent. She was keeping me updated about the place and the check in/out process, not leaving any details out. Thank you Carmen!

Beautiful private condo
First off I want to say I’ve done a lot of traveling and by far this condo was THE BEST I’ve stayed in. Aquatika is nice but I saw a lot of run down unit pass g by. Carmen has taken amazing effort in upgrading it. We had wine on arrival. Super communication. Unit is first building facing the beach. She had multiple supplies , beach toys and chairs on the patio , which is important because there are minimal amount of chairs at the pool and rude people put there stuff on chairs all day even though they are not there! The condo is fully packed with supplies , coffe , snacks and even some pasta and random things. Fully equipped kitchen. The lighting is amazing , very high tech but we kept it simple. The bed, sheets pillows and bathrooms , showers were PERFECT. . The host even came and showed us how to work all the remote since I’m challenged LOL. They were super friendly and texted me all kinds of things to do. We had a lot of plans but actually we were so happy and comfortable that we stayed at the beach and pool. The beach is tiny and you can’t walk down it. But it was fine for my needs. I had the ocean, lots of birds , which I loved. It’s a birds paradise. We saw skinks and iguanas everywhere. That was cool. ONLY CONS. We lost electricity a couple of times but that’s PR. The pool was GREAT. Hot tub hot and clean but the rest of Aquatika the hot tubs were off. No water Park till Saturday. Overall we loved it. Thank you !!!

Very convenient
Perfect midpoint location between old San Juan and rio grande, about 30 min each direction. Short drive to luquillo beach and kiosks which we really enjoyed. Great for kids, playground, several pools accommodate all ages. Nice beach within steps although it was great to search and discover little crabs, sea glass coconuts, it wasn’t best for swimming but a beautiful view of the ocean. Nice kitchen, well stocked. Plenty of tv channels. Comfy.

Best condo location
The condo was clean and steps away from the beach. Our host recommended some great dining options and things to do. I planned this trip from my daughter sweet sixteen and she loved it! We were never bored and tried everything from the park with a swing set to the pool, hot tub, beach and even volleyball. The condo was clean and supplied with shampoo and conditioner. Everything we needed was there and a little convenience store outside the resort. It was a lovely stay and best location to see the ocean from bed.

I Can't Imagine a Better Place
Carmen was an amazing host, and her condo was exactly as described. The bathrooms felt like ones that would be found in a spa! The condo is decorated beautifully, and the air conditioning works great! You can see the ocean from the master bedroom and the living room, and it is just steps away when you go outside. The ocean water and the water in the many pools were the perfect temperature! Carmen went above and beyond to ensure that we had a wonderful trip. She stocked the fridge with drinks, and the pantry with snacks and spices for cooking. This condo has all of the pans you will need to cook a meal, a coffee machine, an air fryer, and a dish washer. Carmen also shared information about some local restaurants who will deliver to the condo, for the nights that we didn't want to cook. There were plenty of towels, beach towels, and water toys. The washer and dryer in the condo made it easy to freshen up some of our clothes for the trip home. We would LOVE to visit again. Thank you, Carmen!!

Immaculate apartment with ocean view
Just had a relaxing week at this immaculate apartment. I’m a bit of a neat freak and this place surpassed my expectations! The apartment was well stocked with all the necessities plus extras! The first aid kit really came in handy when my husband stepped into i n a red ant nest in the sand just outside the apartment. Definitely not a touristy location which we loved , but be prepared to drive and deal with the traffic. Water shoes are a necessity as the rocks are pretty prevalent here. The pools are adequate and the grounds relatively maintained. Bring extra beach towels for a large family ( only 3 for our family of 5 ) this beach is the ideal for a family with young children as the beach and pools are close and have very nice shade trees. Many local restaurants with the best Spanish cuisine you will ever have! Relax and enjoy! Thank u Carmen and Jose!

Excellence over all!
Six of us spent five days in this apartment in Aquatica. The unit met our needs and Carmen, the owner, went beyond our expectations. She decorated the unit with Easter themes and included sangria for us and Easter Candies for the kids. The pantry was very generously stocked. It was even better than the description in the listing. For example, she provided filtered water from both the refrigerator and a Brita water filter pitcher. One of the closets was stuffed with water play noodles, and other water play toys for the kids, as well as lounge chairs which the adults took to the beach. Carmen responded to all of our questions in a timely manner, and provided information about local restaurants and activities. Is sould raite it 6 stars on a 5 star scale. Come. You won't be disappointed.

Nice ocean front condo
The condo is nicely updated and Ocean front! It is nicely equipped in the kitchen, towels, etc. it was comfortable for our group of 6. The complex is a bit outdated but the condo itself has been remodeled. Restaurants close by are a bit tricky as many weren't open during the week days, so we had to drive 10-15 minutes. It was nice to have both access to the pool and the beach and Carmen was easy to work with!!

Beautiful, comfortable accommodations. Even the lighting was a work of art! Our host Carmen was so gracious. The unit is in a huge complex with about 12 buildings -- with 24 hour attendant at entrance gate. About six pools and beautiful landscaping. But this one was ground floor and adjacent to / facing the beach. Although the immediate neighborhood did not have a lot of dining options, Walmart / fast food / large grocery store less than 10 miles.
