Secluded mountain getaway

Villa de Dream was an amazing place for my family vacation. The views down the mountain and out to the ocean were a wonderful thing to wake up to and wind down to after a day of exploring. If you don’t mind a mountain drive off the beaten path for some truly spectacular views and quiet time after a day full of island adventures then this property is perfect for you.

A Perfect, Quiet Getaway

This property is perfect if you're looking for a quiet, tropical retreat! The road to the house is very windy, so you must be comfortable driving in those conditions (I’d say a rental car is a MUST for exploring the island from here). The hosts are extremely communicative and provided us with all necessary information.

Pinch me I'm dreaming

Wow! This place was absolutely beautiful! We only stayed for 3 nights but wish we had been there longer. The home is stunning........the views indescribable. From being able to walk the property to pick fruits, the fun lower porch with darts, pool table & party lights! The dipping pool was great, my 6yo granddaughter loved it! Would highly recommend. April the host gave us some great suggestions where we could go for fun with a 6yo. Hope to return to this amazing home. Thanks April!

Spectacular View

Celebrating my 60th birthday in El Yunque rainforest was better than I had hoped it could be! The layout of the home was perfect for our group for both gathering and privacy. The open kitchen, dining, living was awesome for breakfast and lounging. The upstairs deck and view was another fantastic lounging spot, complete with fans. The outside downstairs gathering space needed a little cleaning attention but everything else was very clean and free of pests. The three main bedrooms are in separate areas of the home so privacy, for three traveling couples, exceeded expectations. Overall, a great place with a respondent hostess - we loved it!

This house was perfect for our first trip to Puerto Rico. We wanted to be not too far from our “to do” list and this house fit the bill! The soaking pool, and multiple deck/patio spaces were perfect for relaxing. The house was very clean and we had everything we needed. The owners were very helpful and responsive.

Great place to stay!

2 years ago we stayed on the west coast of PR, in a villa on the beach. This year we wanted to switch it up, looked for a place in the rain forest area, and found this place. It was well supplied, very comfortable lay-out, fun area downstairs, amazing views from upstairs, close to the beach and marina - overall a "5 star" stay for 3 adult couples. A bit of a curvy road to get there, but worth every curve.

We loved the patio-was a great place to unwind! The property is well cared for & beautiful. There was a ripe starfruit but we didn't pick it. The pool table was great to have. It cooled off enough in the evenings that we didn't use the plunge pool but was very clean and inviting. We had everything we needed in the kitchen-thanks for the coffee! I would love to stay again!

This place is wonderful. The roads in and out were an adventure but so worth it. The view cannot be beat and the house has everything you need. We found the welcome book after a couple days so we did live on two dogs that came to the house. We didn’t see that warning up front. I wish I could bring them home with us! So sweet.

What a gorgeous retreat!

We stayed here for a week with another couple and 4 kids aged 10-16. The space was amazing for all of us! The kids had their own casita with bathroom and small kitchen. The adults stayed in the big house, with a well-stocked kitchen. The views were amazing, and the upstairs and downstairs porches got plenty of use, especially the pool table and grill. The downstairs bedroom in the main house got warm a few nights, which was solved by leaving the door open and cranking down the upstairs AC and fans. Overall this house was perfect for fun and relaxation, and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again! Highly recommended.
