Playa Santa
Our rental was beautiful and had everything we needed during our stay. The neighborhood around the rental was a mixture of some very nice homes and some not so nice. We were a little hesitant at first to leave outside the front gate but we ventured out and was pleasantly surprised at the quietness of the neighborhood and had no issues with anyone. We spent some time at Playa Santa either basking in the sun and swimming or at the local drink and food shack close to the beach. Playa Santa has nice calm waters so no issues with riptides or anything else. There is a big eyesore of a building behind Playa Santa that would make a visit more pleasant if it were fixed up or demolished. Overall a good experience that would be better if there were more places to eat and places to get groceries a little closer.

Great location
I went to PR for my Grandma's funeral and needed to find a place to stay quickly and somewhere close. This property was the perfect location. It was also close to the beach. The property owner was super super nice and accommodating, I asked for an early check in because of the time of the funeral and she got back to me very fast and approved. The place was cozy, perfect size, clean, wifi was great. Would def recommend.

We enjoyed our time very much. Safe and clean. I went to the beach during the day and even at night. So pretty. Cozy. Owner was fully engaged and cared (even brought homemade soup for my 80 year old mom!!) Puerto Ricans are so attentive and kind!!

Perfect for couples and/or solo travelers
This was me and my husband's honeymoon-on-a-budget destination and it was exactly what we wanted - away from the tourists! We felt very much part of the local scene and were very sufficient with the kitchen that was there and the grocery store that was close by (Econo in Guanica - intersection of 116 & PR-332). Note: the neighbors are close by and you can hear them through the walls and especially when you open the windows, but it gets quiet in time for sleep. Beach wise, we went to different local southwest beaches (Playa Combate, Playa Buye, Atolladora Beach, the lighthouse at Cabo Rojo for cliff views, Playa Jaboncillo) and Playa Jungla ended up being our favorite for off-beach snorkeling. Playa Buye, though gorgeous, is a little dangerous for off-shore snorkeling because of private boat traffic. Through it all, we definitely felt safe and secure and we highly recommend for those that are looking for a quaint home away from home! We highly suggest bringing along a bug zapper racket too if mosquitoes love you - it's an island must-have! May the home bless those who go to stay there as much as it did us :)
