We had a wonderful stay at this Playa Azul property the first week of December. (Wed-Sunday). We had visited the San Juan area before and were looking for something on the east coast; this fit our needs perfectly. The building is used to having renters and it is all very well organized. The view is spectacular, and the balcony area was great for sitting in the morning or evening.
The unit was very clean, bed was comfortable, and the water pressure in the shower was great. The kitchen was basic, but fine for cooking breakfast, which is what we mainly used it for. Right across the street is an Amigos grocery store. The size of the living area is spacious and was just fine for two people. We had no issues with the air conditioning.
The owner provides beach equipment and the beautiful beaches are walkable or a very short drive. Also just a 15 minute drive to Fajardo, where the boating excursions (Tobias) leave from; El Yunque (H&J) is also nearby as well. Also some good local eateries in the area.
The building is in need of some renovations, comments about the elevators are accurate. However security was always very helpful in letting us know the status of the elevators. Regarding the comment about the stray cat, we only saw a couple outside the building - you will see many stray gatos and perros throughout Puerto Rico, so this should not be a surprise.
I would highly recommend this property for exploring the eastern part of Puerto Rico. We look forward to visiting again!
