About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Welcome to the Lucky Penny!

Welcome to the Lucky Penny, my island paradise getaway. This completely remodeled 5,000 sq foot three-level home is just 50 steps from the beach and provides amazing rooftop views. The design, decor and amenities have all been chosen to provide comfort and an unparalleled vacation experience. It's my home when not rented, so every detail has been thought out to make it a relaxing place. The house is centrally located in the Ocean Park neighborhood, just minutes to Condado, Isla Verde, and Old San Juan.

You will be renting the entire three story home which includes 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, a dining table to seat 12, fully equipped chef's kitchen, multiple seating areas, and 2nd/3rd floor/rooftop deck spaces. There is also a private, year round heated pool (a rarity in PR due to electricity cost!), as well as outdoor dining area and BBQ.

The house will very comfortably accommodate 12 people, and with extra bunk beds in the first floor bedroom, up to 14. There are 5 large bedrooms, each with en suite bathrooms, which have either queen or king beds outfitted with memory foam mattresses, quality linens and plenty of pillows. Additionally, each bathroom is equipped with mirrors that have built-in Bluetooth speakers. Each room also has a 50" LED TV, with built in Roku, for Netflix/HBO and live streaming TV service. Wifi is high-speed 1gig fiber optic and available throughout the house. Every area and room has inverter A/C units, and there is a full-home backup generator should there be any power issues during your stay. There is also a backup water cistern, so your stay can be trouble free as possible.

The home was designed in a very modern style and is all white inside and out. All of the porcelain tiles were imported directly from Italy. The windows are tripled-pane and soundproof, which keeps it cool and quiet inside. Kitchen cabinetry was all handmade of solid teak, as well as in the bathrooms, and I have included high end European fixtures. In the kitchen is a massive island around which everyone can congregate. All furniture is either from Pottery Barn, West Elm, or has been custom made by myself. I have added a pool table to the second floor lounge for your enjoyment.

Ocean Park is perfectly located between Isla Verde and Condado/OSJ. You will have quick access to the best of both worlds (about 5-15 minutes from most attractions/restaurants), while coming back to a safe quiet residential area. The neighborhood is fully gated, and has a 24 hour rotating guard. Uber is fast and inexpensive in the area, so you may chose not to even rent a car. However if you do, there is a driveway with automatic gate in the front of the house.

I have included most items you will need for a beach vacation: chairs, umbrella, towels and coolers. The house is fully equipped and fully furnished. If something is missing, let me know, and I will do my best to meet any requests.

Please note, we heat the pool to a very pleasant 86-87° to maximize enjoyment while also controlling water chemistry. The entire pool is heated at once, so it is not possible to separate the smaller sitting area, although it does produce relaxing bubbles.

Amazing Property!!
I planned a girls trip with 12 women! We had plenty of space…This property was amazing! Clean and luxurious!! The house is exactly what was advertised! The owner communicated with me the entire time!! We knew exactly what to expect! I would recommend using the local concierge service….. very reasonably priced and super accommodating! The concierge arranged for transportation to and from our private boat charter…which was a fantastic experience… I highly recommend!!

Amazing
The place was very clean and well located near the beach. It was within 10 minutes of all things that we wanted to do in Puerto Rico. The owner was very accommodating and quick to respond to answer any questions we had. Each bedroom was beautiful. Even though there were six of us in the house, the noise levels always remained low. Will be back!!!

Another wonderful stay at the Lucky Penny
This is the 2nd time we have stayed at the Lucky Penny, and it has been perfect each time. For this trip it was my wife and two 20 something sons with their girlfriends. The house is great to be able to hang out, enjoy the pool, the roof top deck and also big enough to escape if wanted. Peter was again very attentive and answered any questions before and during the trip within minutes of me asking. The house was spotless when we arrived, and they were accommodating for a couple small special requests. I'm looking for another reason to come back and enjoy the house again soon. Alex

Made our stay perfect!!
Peter and Mariana were awesome! The Lucky Penny was incredible! This house was everything to me - It was me and 10 of my best friends... and we had the time of our lives. We will never ever forget last weekend. The Lucky Penny is big enough, close enough, and special enough to write much more <3 I will leave you with this - Choose The Lucky Penny!

Family Celebration Vacation
Last year we started taking family vacations to celebrate my beating colon cancer. We had lived in Puerto Rico in the 1990's and enjoyed our time so we decided to return. Best vacation yet!! The house and amenities were awesome. We thoroughly enjoyed every aspect of the house; location, pool, kitchen and gathering rooms. We were very sad to leave.
