Surfer’s Paradise; Beachside escape - Arecibo

Our place is a safe, authentic Puerto Rican experience. This is not a gated resort, but in a local community. Our building has 12 condos. Nine of them are occupied and 3 need extensive work. We are close to many swimming beaches and walking distance to downtown restaurants, ice cream, and shopping . Across the street from awesome surfing! We are in a great location for Sunrise and Sunsets! Enjoy the ocean walk; approximately 2 miles of sidewalk that locals come to exercise!

**Coastal Escape: 🏝️Your Dream Getaway Awaits!**
IMPORTANT NOTES:
We do not have Air Conditioning. It was severely abused by guests in the past, and since we do not use it during our stays, we decided not to replace it.
There are chickens and roosters in the neighborhood. They can be noisy. I do not have control over who has them, or the wild ones.
The electric goes out from time to time. We do not have a generator. When we occupy the home, we go without until it comes back on. Be resourceful, enjoy your time, be resilient.

Wake up to the sound of the ocean and enjoy a refreshing walk along the beach, with local surfers just steps from your door. Here’s what makes our location special:
