Summary:
IMPORTANT: PLEASE MAKE SURE TO READ THE FULL DESCRIPTION BELOW AND REVIEW ALL PHOTOS BEFORE BOOKING.
Sometimes VRBO, Expedia, and other partner websites incorrectly display amenities or other information, which can cause confusion.
If you have any questions or are unsure about something, the listing description is your best reference, but you’re also welcome to contact us directly for clarification.
The Space:
Limón y Playa is a one-bedroom, 2 full-bath luxury villa with a private plunge pool. The villa is steps away from a stunning infinity pool, and the beach is a one-minute walk away. On this beach, you can enjoy a morning or afternoon dip, appreciate the scenery and let the waves caress your feet.
If you are looking to relax, enjoy quiet surroundings, and still have all the fun and action Rincón has to offer a short drive away, then this is the place for you!
IMPORTANT NOTE #1: This villa is not located at The Horned Dorset Hotel (which is closed). It is located at the Villas at Horned Dorset, directly beside the hotel. The common areas and pool of the Villas are in pristine condition. Once you get off the main road, you will encounter narrow countryside roads for approx 3-5 minutes until you get to the property.
IMPORTANT NOTE #2: The complex offers a full-size generator & water tank in case of an interruption in electrical or water service.
IMPORTANT NOTE #3 - PLUNGE POOL MAINTENANCE: The pool man has to access the outdoor patio every Thursday during the morning to clean the plunge pool. No exceptions. Guests do not need to be at the property for this, since they don't need access to the unit. Please reach out to us before booking if you have any questions regarding this service.
LIVING AREA
You will love the way the living area seamlessly integrates the beautiful plunge pool and garden views. There is a 2-person dining table and central AC. The room is elegantly furnished and has a TV for sophisticated relaxation by the Caribbean Sea.
The living and dining room opens to the terrace via two gorgeous wooden doors.
The terrace has a private plunge pool overlooking a tropical garden with a 2-person dining table, great for having breakfast, lunch, or a romantic dinner. There are two lounge chairs for sunbathing in privacy.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
The master suite is located on the second level of the villa. Upstairs, the views get even better. The villa offers a four-poster mahogany king-size bed, Amalfi ceramics, hand-carved furniture, and a separate sitting area. The grand suite has a luxurious bathroom covered from floor to ceiling with Carrara marble and features a beautiful oversized freestanding white porcelain bathtub, a shower, and His & Hers sinks.
PACK AND PLAY (SUBJECT TO AVAILABILITY): We can leave a complimentary Pack and Play at the property upon request. This should be requested upon booking or no later than 5 days before arrival. Pack and Plays are subject to availability.
KITCHENETTE
The kitchenette is located on the 1st level of the villa. It offers a small refrigerator, toaster, microwave oven, a single burner portable stovetop, coffee maker, a blender, and basic pots and pans for simple cooking.
GETTING AROUND & PARKING
We strongly recommend renting a car, as there are a multitude of activities within a 15-30-minute drive that you will not want to miss out on. Also, Uber is not readily available in the area, which is why it's important to have your own means of transportation.
The villa includes one (1) unassigned parking spot.
LOCATION
There are many things to do in Rincón, Puerto Rico. This part of the island is best known as "The town of beautiful sunsets." Staying at Rincón you will enjoy a laid-back atmosphere, delicious restaurants, and great surfing beaches.
