The Space:

Step inside this bright, spacious apartment, where the living, dining, and kitchen areas come together to create a relaxed, easygoing atmosphere. Sunlight pours in through large windows, lighting up the stylish decor and comfortable furnishings — the kind of living room made for losing yourself in a book or gathering loved ones for movie night on the sofas.



The kitchen is stylish, modern, and fully equipped with an oven and stove, refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, toaster, and blender — everything you need whether you're an experienced cook or just want to whip up something quick. The dining area, conveniently placed between the kitchen and living room, is the ideal spot to share home-cooked meals with family and friends.



Both bedrooms are outfitted with a queen bed, sleeping up to 4 guests across the apartment's 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. High-speed WiFi, a smart TV, air conditioning, a ceiling fan, and heating keep things comfortable year-round, while a record player and ping pong table round out the entertainment for a relaxed afternoon in.



Step out onto the private balcony for your morning coffee and a moment of calm — with the beach just a minute's walk away, this charming two-bedroom apartment is an ideal base for a getaway full of relaxation, recreation, and unforgettable memories by the sea.



Guest Access:

You'll have full access to the entire apartment, as well as the property's shared amenities and common areas. Check-in is fully self-guided via keypad lock, and the apartment has its own independent entrance, separate from the main building access. Free parking is available on-site (first come, first served).



The Neighborhood:

Casa Elena sits inside a gated, beachfront residential community in Ocean Park, one of San Juan's most beloved coastal neighborhoods — a walkable stretch known for its laid-back charm and easy access to the water.



Ocean Park Beach: a 1-minute walk, one of Puerto Rico's favorite spots for kitesurfing, paddleboarding, and beach days

Getting Around:

Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU) is about 11 minutes away by car. Condado is roughly 9 minutes away, and Old San Juan is about 18 minutes away, making it easy to explore beyond the neighborhood. A car or rideshare is the most convenient way to get around, and guests have several reliable options: rideshare apps like Uber, rental cars for full flexibility, or metered taxis readily available throughout San Juan. Ocean Park itself is very walkable, with the beach, cafes, and restaurants all within a short stroll.

Utilities & Weather in San Juan, Puerto Rico



Electricity Management: Due to the energy situation in Puerto Rico following Hurricane Maria, power outages can occur from time to time. We have a backup generator so you're never left in the dark, though its runtime depends on responsible use. During an outage, we recommend limiting higher-draw items — A/C, microwave, hair dryer, washer/dryer, and chargers — so the generator lasts as long as possible for everyone.

Water Supply: Water outages are uncommon, and we're prepared with backup water tanks on-site. If an external service interruption happens, we recommend using water only for the essentials and pausing the washing machine until service is restored.

Hurricane & Storm Policy: We want your stay to be safe, but weather is out of our control. No refunds are issued for weather-related cancellations; however, in the event of a storm, we're happy to help you reschedule, subject to calendar availability.

We appreciate your understanding and will always do our best to support you.
