Amazing staying
If I could give 10 stars I would! The location is impossible to beat (3 minutes walking from a private, gorgeous beach), the house (beautiful) has EVERYTHING you can ask for, and IF what you are looking is not there, Carlos and Sylvia will make sure to get it for you. They are extremely helpful and accommodating. They gave us recommendation on tours, places where to eat and answered all our questions. Definitely one of the best stay ever!

Family w/ adult children
What a phenomenal experience! Communication began the moment we booked. Check-in process was easy even though we arrived late in San Juan. The home is as described. We found it to be comfortable and well decorated. Ample bath and pool towels were provided as well as toiletries. We found everything we needed to prepare meals: pots, pans, utensils and plenty of dishes for our party of 8. There’s also a toaster, coffee maker, & blender. The dining table seats 6, but there is room for 2 at the bar- there’s also plenty of seating outside to eat. I think there were tvs in each room, but who knows, we didn’t watch it; there was too much to be done with family on this wonderful island. The property is amazing! There are so many outdoor spaces to just “be”. Want to play a game in the pool- you can! There’s a floating table! We never felt like we were on top of each other and had ample space. The walk to the beach is a little tough on the way back as it is all uphill, but the refreshing shower once you re-enter the property makes you forget it all. The beach itself is not very busy. Most times there were only a few others down there with us. We had a few very minor issues- portable speaker not charging, hot water, smoke alarm beeping- all taken care of immediately! We have been to Puerto Rico a few times and this was the family’s favorite! We hope to be back in the future :)

Great 12 year trip for granddaughter
Charming home that offered us privacy for two couples and one 12 (going on 15) year old. Gorgeous plants surround the garden area and the pool is right outside the door. We loved the quiet gazebo in the middle of the property that gave shade on a hot day and the upper deck with a stunning view of the ocean. The feral cats and chickens became friends. The property had everything we needed for a great week.

This house is absolutely beautiful! And the outdoor space was even more beautiful. We were lost and the owner was kind enough to meet us and guide us to the home. There was a total of 10 of us and we fit comfortably. House is clean. Would definitely stay there again!

Adult Family Trip
Property was awesome! Lived up to all expectations and more. More than enough space for 8 adults, both inside and out. Open aspect of the Kitchen and living area, to the size of the bedrooms. Separate apartment allowed for a little separation if needed. Outdoor space was great with the deck overlook- (especially for coffee in the AM) the pool ,and outdoor gathering areas. And a short walk to the beach gave great options. My wife and I, along with our 3 adult children and their significant others enjoyed the property tremendously. Thank You!

Perfect Place off the Beaten Path
All of the reviews left so far are spot on. Our multi-generation family of 8 stayed in Villa Don Rafa and absolutely loved it. The hosts were very responsive to any questions or assistance we needed while onsite. The beach is less than a 0.25 mile walk (or drive) down the hill and we almost always had it all to ourselves. If you are a runner (I'm training for a marathon), get ready for some hill training. Although you can also do quarter mile loops and stay on a flat portion for the majority of your run. You will definitely need a vehicle to get around, but we also loved the time we spent just hanging out at the villa or beach. We would definitely book here again!

Wonderful!
We truly enjoyed our stay here - the property is spacious and beautiful, and the hosts are quick to respond and provide any assistance needed. They even left a delicious New Years Day cake for us upon check in! There is a grocery store and Walgreens within 10 min and easy day trips to San Juan, the rainforest and the bioluminescent bay. The beach is within walking distance (two minutes away), and never crowded. There is a little swimming area for kids as the waves can be rough for swimming, but lots of open each for splashing in the surf. We would highly recommend for families and groups!! What a wonderful place.
