Spectacular Beach Front Condo in the Heart of Isla Verde! #1

Location! Location! Location! Newly Renovated, Clean and Includes Parking!

This quaint and beautiful condo is located in the heart of Isla Verde. Only 5 minutes from the airport, on the best beach in San Juan and arguably one of the best beaches in Puerto Rico.

The Racquet Club Condominium is a safe, 24-Hour doorman building literally 5 STEPS to the beach. You cannot get any closer. The building is clean and has spectacular beach front views. My condo is on the 9th Floor, spotlessly clean and decorated with a “Hampton's” simplistic, open-airy spa feel.

When guests walk in, they are in awe of the amazing view. It looks like there is a balcony, but there is not. However, because the floor-to-ceiling sliding doors provide such an open feel, you have the sense of being outside when you sit down and have your cup of morning coffee admiring the aqua green and cerulean blue sea. I guarantee you... the view is breathtaking! You will be delighted when you experience the incredible ocean breeze and ample sunlight.

The condo is only steps away from the Isla Verde strip, where you can walk to everything, from the Royal Sonesta Hotel (formerly the Inter-Continental), Ruth's Chris, to the "soho chic" rooftop restaurant and bar at the Water & Beach Club Hotel a few doors down. CVS is at the corner, or if you prefer, you have Walgreen’s, delis, restaurants, Pueblo supermarket, and a number of fast-food restaurants from which you can choose. The El San Juan Hotel, a lobby possessing architectural beauty, an amazing chandelier at the bar, high-end restaurants, night clubs and the spectacular casino, awaits you only a few blocks away!

If you don’t feel like going out, there are 2 bars on the bottom of the building - check out Torres Place where the drinks are great and the seafood empanadas are delish! You are also bound to meet the locals, some New Yorkers or tourists from around the globe. By the end of the night, hopefully everyone will probably know your name!

In terms of transportation, you really don't need a car. Uber is cheap here! However, if you do want to hire a car, PARKING IS INCLUDED is conveniently located at the building. You can rent a car around the corner at Charlie's Car Rental or walk to the corner and take the local bus to Old San Juan, where you can take in some museums or visit the world famous El Morro. There are so many choices, but you won't be disappointed.

No matter what... you’ll be in the heart of Isla Verde and have a great time!

Lastly - guess what? You can actually get me, the owner on the phone! Novel idea speaking to a human right? My management company will take good care of you, but at least you know, you will always be able to reach me!

Beautiful stay!
We had an amazing time at the beach. We stayed for 8 days and it was beautiful weather for the duration. The property manager and host were easily reachable and communicated with us multiple times. There are several places in walking distance but I do recommend renting a car to get the full experiences of the island. If you have a vehicle keep in mind that you must check in with the security person and then go up tot he room before parking the vehicle. It makes for a much smoother experience. The accommodations were nice and simple and we had a beautiful view! We loved it!

Beautiful condo!
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon. Isla Verde beach is the most beautiful beach in our opinion! Steps away from the beach and the view from our room was amazing. Check in was a little difficult as we got in to San Juan at 2am, but security was helpful and property manager was prompt to answer questions and solve issues. Many restaurants close by. The pool was not busy and clean. Check out was very easy! Would stay again!

Great Option in Isla Verde
Cost effective cute apartment in Isla Verde. Having been to Isla Verde before and knowing the neighborhood I am also aware of the prices this area can garner. As an avid and frequent traveler, I look for the cost-effective option whenever possible. Being cost effective doesn't mean you have to sacrifice. Such is the case with Jennifers condo. The place is clean, nicely decorated, and with a view that can't be matched. Communication was excellent, building staff was helpful, and the neighborhood is safe both day and late night. As others have stated the building doesn't look like much from the outside and even in the lobby but please do not let this distract you from staying here. I would totally rent again and guess what I can because I took the cost-effective option in the first place!

The room itself was great! Beautiful view. My only complaint is the parking clicker barely worked. We rented a car and needed a spot, so they gave us one in a locked parking lot. We had to click it numerous times for it to work. The outside of the building looks a little run down but once you get to the room, it really is beautiful! Great staff and good communication. So much is provided for you in the room. It’s RIGHT on the beach and theres two beach bars right on the building. Location is great, close to everything. Some stuff is walking distance but by car/uber, the furthest we drove was 15-20 mins. The isla verde beach is so nice as well! Overall, great stay and experience. I definitely recommend it!

Nice place to stay if you want to be right at the beach. Condo has 1 bedroom and a pull out futon in the living room area. There’s beach towels, a cooler and beach chairs if you need them and laundry on site if you need to do laundry during your stay. There was a 24 hour store nearby which was great and food within walking distance.

Beautiful price of paradise
My husband and I had an amazing 7 days trip in this beautiful condo in La Isla Verde. Location is central to everything! You’re on the beach! Open the window and hear the sound of the ocean. A short drive to old San Juan, more beach and the mountains and hiking. We slept comfortably and condo had everything we needed. Thank you again for this magical place we had an amazing 20th anniversary here!

Beach spot
My favorite part about this place is it’s right on the beach!!! You can see, hear the ocean from your room! Everything was clean, updated and in working fashion! From the outside, the condo doesn’t look so inviting but this apartment is completely different than the outside. Perfect apartment for 2-3 ppl :) thank you!
