Jays Luquillo home
This was a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. This home is very Rustic, almost entirely outside, but exactly What we were hoping for. Jay and his staff were very helpful and responsive to our needs. The area of the home felt safe, was quiet, and very convenient to get on and off PR3.

Unpleasant experience
I had an extremely disappointing experience at this rental. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that the host was unresponsive and uninterested in providing a good stay. Several major issues made my time there unbearable:-Unresponsive Host: Reaching out to the host was a nightmare. They rarely responded, and when they did, it was unhelpful and dismissive.-Broken Air Conditioner: In the middle of a hot spell, the air conditioner was not working, making it nearly impossible to stay comfortable. A property manager finally came right before our last night to fix it.-Terrible Internet Connection: The Wi-Fi was either incredibly slow or completely non-functional, which was frustrating. - Ill-Fitting Bed Sheets: The bed sheets didn’t even fit the mattress properly, making sleeping uncomfortable and unhygienic.On top of these issues, the general upkeep of the property was lacking. I would not recommend this rental to anyone, especially if you're looking for a smooth, comfortable, and hassle-free experience.Save yourself the trouble and find a host who actually cares about their guests.

Outdoor Amazement!
This property is one of the coolest places we have ever stayed at. The outdoor layout is like nothing we've ever seen before. The view from the place is amazing. Shower is outside but very private. You have seating areas, hammocks, even a jacuzzi! The bedroom and toilet area are under cover and protected. We felt safe and had a great time. Our host Jay was very helpful with all kinds of great information as to what to do and where to eat in the area. Thanks Jay! Also, you can't beat the price per night. If you are not picky and need a cool place to sleep and hang out at night after a day full of adventure, this place is for you!Goodplace forrchips two A and adventurous

Unique creative space
I came for a mother-daughter trip. Just as is pictured, a really cool spot the owner has created, an outdoorsy space. It even rained the first day or two and it wasn't that bad, since temps are so enjoyable in PR. If you like camping, you'll love it here. In what I'd say is an average middle class neighborhood, some nice places, some not as nice, but that's average, so don't be a snob :) Jay was so great to work with. He made recommendations right away and was super responsive! He realy takes pride in his rentals. I hope to be back!

What can I say? 🏅
Not going to lie, it’s hard giving this a perfect review because more people are going to find out about one of the most beautiful and relaxing gems in the island of Puerto Rico. Staying here was everything I desire and needed, to be able to relax by yourself in a secluded area but allow you to be free was so good. My host was incredible and gave amazing suggestions. This place is the best I’ve stayed in a very long time. I highly recommend.

This property was exactly what we wanted for our visit to Puerto Rico. Privacy with an amazing outdoor shower and hot tub. Our host was so responsive and helpful with local suggestions. The neighborhood felt very safe. It was very humid during our stay so the air conditioner in the bedroom couldn't keep up, but the big fan really helped. We would definitely stay again, no question!

Great Host, Amazing Experience
First off !!! Jay is a great host. He made our trip a better experience. The flat we stayed in, is definitely for people who enjoy the outdoor experience. My wife and I were celebrating our first anniversary and Jay’s flat was the perfect base to have a true Puerto Rico experience. Luquillo is a unique experience and there are things to do from morning until late at night. We loved the outdoor shower, and the uniqueness of the outdoor flat. Yes mosquitos and flies can be an issue, but they didn’t really bother us. If you want to visit Culebra or Vieques islands using the FERRY make sure to get your tickets a few days in advance at the FERRY terminal in CEIBA at least two days before you plan on going. Amazing trip we loved the outdoor experience at Jay’s.

Great location in Luquillo
I had a chance to explore the island on my own after a work week in San Juan. This is an excellent balance to that - in a nice, suburban neighborhood away from the bustle of the city. Great location near Luquillo (beaches and kiosks), Fajardo, El Yunque, etc. Jay is an excellent host, made sure I had lots of information about the surrounding area. The space is your own outdoor patio with enclosed bedroom - fun space and nice to enjoy the outdoors. I would stay here again.

A haven for outdoor comforts.
Jays place was so perfect I almost don't want to write this review in fear others will book it when I want to return. Lol All jokes aside Jay was an amazing host that gave us countless restaurant suggestions (the ribs were the highlight of my trip) he also was kind enough to help with any questions or requests we had. The place has a perfect view of the ocean and the rainforest. It was a nice outdoor shower a seperate bathroom and all the comforts you could need in a room. The outdoor living space was so relaxing even in the rain. The best part was a hot tub very well put together with views of the stars yet privacy from others. Inwould recommend Jays spot to anyone that wants to truly live like a local on vacation you'll find everything you need there!

And then in arms reach, there's parties, beaches, shopping, food and convenience right where you need it. The people are helpful, nice and cordial.

An Excellent Host and Property! Paradise Home Away From Home
We had a beautiful trip during our time in Puerto Rico, and our favorite time was the time we spent here, in Luquillo. It was a clean, quiet, relaxing stay with everything needed to really make the most of our time. You can stay here with confidence knowing not only is the host very accomodating and the property well-kept, it is SO close to everything you will want to do: see the rainforest in El Yunque, go to the myriad beautiful beaches, snorkel with sea turtles in Culebra, make a visit to Old San Juan for the day, and even easy enough to get to/from the airport, knowing you have parking right out front. Don't miss this one -- it's an awesome home and location.
