"Caracol Del Mar" Beach Apartment 5 min walk Ocean Park

“El Caracol Del Mar” or “The Seashell” characterizes our guest apartment hideaway, a separate space for you on our residential beach house property only a 5-minute walk to the beach. It’s furnished for a cozy stay in the heart of San Juan and its trendiest beach vibes of “Ocean Park”

Location: Centered in the middle of all San Juan has to offer. You will only be a short UBER ride to Everything. 8 mins from the Luis Munoz Marin International Airport. Walgreens, Walmart, or grocery stores. 12 mins by car to OLD San Juan historic Spanish architecture, 6 mins to “Condado”/ “Isla Verde” hotels, casinos, and clubs, 8 mins to “Santurce’s” local art and nightlife. Fine dining, international and local cuisine, is accessible via UBER or a few different food delivery apps.
The apartment is well-equipped to meet the needs of a traveler. Beach gear is readily available to grab n go. A backyard patio is covered with a canopy for outdoor seating.

Perks for staying here: We are hosts and tour guides. We personally operate small group tours to The Tropical rainforest, Bioluminescent bay kayaking, Scuba Diving, Snorkeling, and more. We can help package together lodging and Tours that save you time and money.
Embrace the call of adventure and find joy in the moment. You’re likely to go scuba diving or jump into tropical rainforest natural pools. Take pics with cascades or waterfalls. Bask in the sun on a tropical beach. Bite into a crunchy "alcapurria", or "empanadilla". Join a salsa dance party in the street and dare to live every moment to its fullest in Puerto Rico.

Terrance was a great host. He was very friendly and willing to share his knowledge on diving, spear fishing and any other questions we had about Puertorico. We especially enjoyed the courtyard area. I would reccomend this place to anyone ✌️

Our stay in Ocean Park
We've never stayed in an apartment that had no natural light. All of the windows were papered over and closed. It was a bit gloomy. We also didn't know that the neighborhood is gated and there was only one entry point so finding our way in was a challenge on arrival. The location was great, only a block from the beach and lots of good food nearby. The hosts were very pleasant and informative once we met them.

Best People Ever
From the second we got there, Janice and TJ were beyond amazing!! They picked us up from the airport and affered so many excursions for us at a small discount for boarding with them. They are what made this vacation what it was. From the rainforest, to the biobay, to them letting us use the kayaks and taking us to a beautiful spot they went above and beyond . The neighborhood was beautiful and the house was perfect. We are already making plans to go back! I 10000% recommend using these amazing people to help book your vacay!!! Thank u again Janice and Terrance and cant wait to do it again!

Home away from home
Property was clean and comfortable. Lots of extras in case you forgot to pack something. Fully stocked kitchen with pots, pans, etc. Smart TV with access to all your streaming services. Terrance and Janice are the absolute best hosts. They are also tour operators. We took a fantastic rainforest hike, complete with waterfalls, rope swings, cliff jumping and natural springs. After dark we took a kayak tour to the bioluminescent bay. It was the most amazing experience. Total darkness, under the stars and with each stroke of the paddle, it lit up with bright blue light. Definitely a must do, if you are in Puerto Rico. I recommend the apartment and the hosts highly!

Short stay close to airport
We stayed only 2 nights as it was close to the airport. Other than the leaking water on the kitchen floor (slipped and almost fell) it is a guest house in the back of the main house. The host were friendly. I do wish they install a pad lock inside for added security. It is a digital key pad outside with no second lock to secure the door from inside. As they do have their friends sometimes hanging out close in the backyard and can be heard from the bedroom asking who was staying in the guesthouse. (That was a bit uncomfortable)4pm is a bit of a late check in, we are use to earlier check ins.Overall it was just to be close to the airport to shorten our drive to the end of our trip. Grateful nontheless. This is more of a stay for adults.Inside was clean, beds are comfortable, ac was nice and cold. Water was nice and hot in the shower. Thank you for the short stay

Home away from home
Very safe friendly neighborhood, security controls the area in which this vrbo is located so big thumbs up. Five min walk to the nearest beach. Also the property manager locks main gate and you lock your own apartment door. You will see joggers alot of bikers so it's a very suburban area. Janice is a wonderful person she is very cool and welcoming also she stays out the way , you should know Terrance and Janice are tour guides so if you need to know about the island you are in great hands . I can eyes close recommend this place, I put my word behind it good people safe environment everything you need close by. Janice and T are very modern artistic Manhattan hip type of people very beautiful. The room felt very private Total 2 bedroom apartment vibe. Have fun and God speed. Hopefully see them next year for Noche de San Juan ❤️
