About this property

1940s Colonial 2BR · Work-Friendly · Ocean Park · Steps to Beach & Loíza

Welcome to La Chiocciola Apt 2 — a charming 2-bedroom apartment in a beautifully preserved 1940s colonial building in the heart of Ocean Park, one of San Juan's most beloved neighborhoods.
Original handcrafted tiles give this apartment its authentic Puerto Rican character, while thoughtful modern updates — including a renovated bathroom — make every stay comfortable. The spacious open-plan kitchen is fully equipped and features a dedicated work area, making it ideal for remote workers and longer stays. Both bedrooms and the living room have A/C for a cool and restful experience.
The living room features a trundle sofa bed that comfortably sleeps 2 extra guests — a smart, space-saving solution that's far more comfortable than a traditional sofa bed. One parking spot is available on-site (shared, first-come basis).
Location could not be better. Steps from the beach, walking distance to restaurants, supermarkets, and boutique shops, and just around the corner from the vibrant and colorful Loíza Street — one of San Juan's most beloved neighborhoods. A 24/7 supermarket is just 5 minutes away, a famous local breakfast spot is right around the corner, and La Placita de Santurce is only 5–7 minutes away — the heart of San Juan's nightlife and food scene. Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport is only 7 minutes away, making your arrival and departure completely stress-free.
Come experience the soul of Puerto Rico from the comfort of a home that has stood the test of time — now refreshed just for you.

Not for me...

So I booked this property for a week with my mom (65+) for our first time in PR. I ended up leaving after the first night. My issues were about the location than the property which was very nice. The road noise is just never ending and I woke up so many times feeling like a car was bearing down on me. Don't poo-poo the past reviews that mention this like I did. Some don't mind this, my mom personally liked it, it made me feel very on edge and unable to sleep deeply. My main issue was the location it's on a very tight street with not a whole lot around for tourists. Def seemed more of a residential/local neighborhood. Ubers wouldn't pick us up and made us walk to meet them which wasn't great for my mom and got old. The property itself is very nice. Spacious and modern. Comfy beds, clean. So I want to be very clear unit was perfectly fine. Would be great for a group trip. But if youre wanting more of a tourist experience with shops/restaurants or the ability to explore on your own walking I don't think this one is great for that. I dont harbor any ill will towards the hosts and wish them the best. I tried to be fair and accurate in this review.

Great Rental 10 min from Beach

This property is spacious and the layout is exactly as pictured/described. It is a 10 min walk to the beach and a 10 min walk to a 24hr grocery store. It is very close to the airport ($10-12 Uber) and there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Cristian was polite and responsive and an all around A+ property owner. Highly recommend!

Nice place, good location.

Very comfortable feel, great communication and responses from Christian. Couple of important points: 1) the reviews about the noise level are almost understated. Traffic noise is real from 5 AM to 2 AM. 2) locals suggest not walking after dark in that area- Uber/Lyft are your friend.

great rental for a deep sleeper

Rental was clean and had all the basic amenities. Both beds were comfortable but I wouldn't rely on the pull out couch as a third bed as it didn't have a very large sleeping area. The location was awesome in that it was a short walk from a street with tons of shops and restaurants and only a short walk (maybe 10-15 mins) to the beach. However, this apt also is next to a very busy highway and there was loud car noise throughout the night that made it difficult to sleep. If you are a deep sleeper it maybe wouldn't bother you, but if you are a light sleeper this probably isn't the rental for you.

Close to beach & highly responsive property manager

Pros: Cristian the property manager was super responsive to our requests and very flexible to our check in/check out. The neighborhood felt safe and was only 5-10 minute walk to the beach and awesome restaurants, gym, and grocery store. The home had good wifi, solid A/C, and everything else we needed. Jose, the handyman who lives upstairs, was super nice and helpful! Cons: The house is right next to a major highway so it is noisy, especially when a motorcycle or loud truck goes by. The hot water for shower was unreliable; we did find a workaround for the time we were there, and Cristian noted he would be sending a plumber to fix it upon our departure.

Great place walking distance from beach!

This location was about a five minute walk from a beautiful beach. It was very comfortable for myself plus three friends.
