Luxury Caribbean villa, fully remodeled, located minutes from the rainforest!

Welcome to luxury! This tropical, beachfront villa is completely remodeled with high-end finishes. The villa is located in the heart of the Grand Wyndham Rio Mar Resort on the northeastern side of Puerto Rico in the sunny Caribbean. This 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom, main level villa sleeps 6 and is surrounded by paradise. Look out any window and the ocean, with its long sandy beaches, is just steps from your private balcony.

As owner & award-winning Minneapolis home builder, I have completely renovated & redesigned the interior of the villa with modernized beachfront décor. Renovations include new floors, cabinets, light fixtures, countertops, fresh paint, and bath accessories. The kitchen is equipped with new appliances as well as kitchenware. New air conditioning units have been installed in each room. My vision was to connect the exterior beauty of this location with the interior environment of this villa.

The villa includes access to 3 pools (lap pool, infinity pool, kids' pool) plus 2 hot tubs! The pools are just a few feet from the balcony of the villa. In fact, you can sit on your balcony and watch your children from there. The Ocean Villa pools are exclusive to our villa guests, just as the Wyndham hotel pools are exclusive to hotel registered guests. Our guests are within walking distance to the Wyndham hotel resort amenities to include several bars/restaurants, a spa, casino, several tennis courts, and two championship golf courses. NOTE: The Wyndham Grand Rio Mar Resort is a separate entity from the Ocean Villas. They reserve the right to accommodate hotel guests only. Please call (787)888-6000 to verify hours and availabilities.

Amenities in this area are abundant! The ocean water is warm all year round so it does not matter what season you vacation in. My children love collecting seashells along the beach and jumping into the ocean waves. My wife and I love to walk on the soft sand and watch the sun rise and set each day. Walk east up the beach and as you round the corner a beautiful view of Rio Mameyes flowing from the mountains of El Yunque into the ocean awaits. This location is a screen saver view! The El Yunque Rainforest is a treasure and also one of the main reasons we love this area in Puerto Rico. It is just 10 minutes away. There you can swim or soak at the base of many waterfalls and take in the beautiful views of the ocean below. There are miles of hiking trails for kids, senior citizens, and experienced hikers. To enhance your adventure through the rain forest, stop at one of the many zip line adventure courses. Other nearby activities include: deep sea fishing, ferry boat and day trips to Vieques and Culebra Islands, bio bay tours, the local gallery and art center, and tours of Old San Juan.

Restaurants are abundant within the Wyndham Resort, all of which are within walking distance from the villas and offer a vast variety of cuisines. The Tiki Bar and Grill is within the resort and serves excellent food right on the beachfront. A couple of the pubs inside the complex serve delicious appetizers along with a wide variety of drinks. Sport lovers will appreciate the multiple TVs and lively atmosphere while watching games. Venture outside the Wyndham Resort and check out the many "mom and pop" restaurants within a 5 mile radius ranging from amazing fish and lobster at LaParilla, to sushi, barbeque and steak joints. My family and I love treating ourselves to breakfast at Board Riders in Luquillo, which is an excellent family environment. Venture 35 minutes into San Juan and you find all of the high end dining and night life you want. Walk the cobblestone streets of Old San Juan and visit as many shops as desired. There certainly are no shortages of dining and street vendors in this area.

While going out to eat is great, you can also stock your cupboards with fresh fruit and veggies from some of the local fruit stands in the area. Costco and Walmart are great stops for your bulk grocery needs.

When you book your stay, a Guest Letter will be provided that will give you more tips and suggestions to maximize your stay in Puerto Rico. This letter includes information on the airport, transportation, gas, costs of activities, directions, more on restaurants, etc. It is my goal to ensure your experience is one to remember!

A lovely get-away with a perfect view!
My daughter, granddaughter and I stayed at this lovely property. It was larger than appears in the pictures, very clean and the kitchen was thoughtfully supplied. We loved the shallow kids' pool and the view was incredible. The beach was pristine and the water a stunning blue. Not crowded at all and overall just what we were hoping for.

We had the best time in this unit. Everything was just as the pictures and very comfortable. The pool and beach were amazing. It was great having a unit on the first floor and right in front of the pool. The two fancy restaurants at the Wyndham were top notch. We want to come back !

Would definitely come back.
The condo was fantastic and exceeded all our expectations, and that is saying something having our three adult children with us. Being on the first floor, it gave us easy access to the pool that was never crowded and the beach was right there. The location was also central to many activities. We really enjoyed our stay. Our one suggestion would be to update the beach chairs provided by the owner. They are a little dated. Just a small thing for what overall was a great trip to PR.

We spent 4 beautiful nights here for a family reunion. The landscape is perfect. We had some family staying at the hotel so walking distant to the hotel and restaurant was so convenient. The location was great for us for golf and the rainforest. We hopefully will return! Thank you!

Great stay in Rio Mar
Family of 4 adults had a great time in this lovely condo. We had previously stayed at Wyndham resort which is next to this property and wanted to experience staying in a nearby condo. We are very glad we chose this property!! Layout is great with bedrooms on either side of living room/dining room area. Beautiful view of ocean. Very clean. Nice administrative staff made our stay great.

Everything was great, pool, private beach, clean, we stayed 7 days but by day 5 we didn’t have hot water. Which I had read in a previous review. The water was not tolerable since it was hot. They didn’t have a cooler for beach but we bought one and left it for future guest to use for the beach. Other than that I enjoyed everything!

Fabulous!
Our family had a wonderful time in this beautiful condo. Everything was perfectly described. It was very quiet and at times we felt like the pools and beach were ours and ours alone! We had dinner at the Wyndham one night, which was a 5 minute walk and Ritchie's up on the hill was had the most fantastic overlook (and the food was very good too!). We rented a car, and everything we explored was an easy enough ride: Britton Tower in the rainforest, Old San Juan, Fajardo, etc... We definitely had an amazing time and would come back again!

Nicely updated unit
We have stayed in Ocean Villas units 8 times now. We love the low key vibe of the community and the beautiful grounds, pools and beaches. We visited the El Yunque National Park on an early trip since its only a mile away. On recent visits we no longer rent a car because we have little motivation to leave the pools (love the lap pool) and the beach. Our stays have spanned most months October to May and Ocean Villas is never crowded.

Our first stay in PR!
We had an absolute blast on this trip! It was our first time in PR and we soaked up every second of it! We loved the the resort so much! My favorite part was how not crowded it was! Most nights we were the only family in the pools. Having the beach so close was just as amazing! The condo was clean and exactly what you see in the pictures. My only complaint would be that the fans in the rooms didn’t work so at times it did get a little warm but we did love having the mini splits in each room! Overall it was a super great experience and would 1000% recommend staying in this unit.

Exceeded expectations. You won’t regret staying here
We absolutely loved this villa. We had 8 people, all grown and the space had plenty of room to make us all feel comfortable. The villa is immaculate. The views from the 1st floor deck are spectacular. The pool and beach are amazing. The kitchen is equipped with all the needed supplies to cook. Huge supply of beach towels. Two boogie boards and 4 beach chairs. The grounds are maintained at the highest level and the entire Wyndham resort is simply beautiful all over. I can’t rave enough about this villa.

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful villa. Every morning we woke up drinking our cup of coffee with a gorgeous oceanfront view. Perfect way to start our day! Apartment was very neat and it is very modern, as it was remodeled. You can even do the cooking while having a beautiful view of the ocean. Communication has been awesome, and they answered all of my answers very promptly. I highly recommend this property if you want to relax, while also recharge taking nice walks through the beach and then getting to this cozy villa! We had an awesome time :-)

Amazing week at Rio Mar
We had such an incredible week at Ocean Villas in Rio Mar. The condo was modern, clean and spacious. I never want to go back to a hotel room again! My kids loved the pool. People were very friendly and chill. The ocean water was warm. It was a bit wavy so we didn’t go in far. So nice to have the Wyndham next door as well as many restaurants in the area to choose from. We played tennis at the Wyndham and had an amazing breakfast on their outside deck. We did an excursion in El Yunque with rope swings and natural rock water slides...definitely a must do! Can’t wait to go back!!!

. I would have rated this place a five start if not for the master bath room ceiling water leakage . I was going to rated much lower because frankly I have not encountered this problem before in vrbo but the property management was awesome and helpful . Plus the owner reimburse it a little for our trouble . Otherwise the location. Was great and very sunny !
