Rio Mar Beach Resort - Time Magazine TOP 100 World's Greatest Places 2018

Loved everything about this place! So spacious and very clean. The pictures don’t do this place justice. We would definitely book this again next time we are in PR.

The home worked well for our intergenerational family of six. Kids and parents upstairs, grandparents on first floor. Having three bathrooms was great. It was helpful having laundry facilities. The pool is just about a block away, although we spent more time at the beach than the pool. We felt very safe being in the gated community, although you do need to drive everywhere.We found the close proximity to Luquillo Beach and Yunque rainforest very handy, and there were nearby grocery stores.

The property is clean, updated and in great condition. The pictures don't do it justice. Property owner was more than efficient and kind in offering support for our stay.

We weee greeted by an amazingly helpful and insightful host. The property was more than enough room for our family of 7, situated on an extremely safe property. The property is situated near destinations we wanted to visit. We would absolutely stay again!

Vanessa was a great host, making sure everything was in order and answering any questions we had. She also went out of her way to be helpful when there was an island-wide power outage: she brought over coolers with ice so that the food in the fridge would not spoil. The apartment is very spacious and in excellent shape. Everything worked well and there were plenty of towels, beach towels, boogie boards and beach toys, etc. Perfect for families with young kids.Note that the apartment does not have a backup generator and you do not have access to the Wyndham Beach Club and hotel pools. The pool for the compound was a short walk away and is a small pool that our kids enjoyed (4' deep, so good for little ones).

The villa was just as described and the property manager went above and beyond to answer our questions and provide guidance on the area, excursions, etc. We were well taken care of!This is not an issue with the villa or the owner but with the Rio Mar itself: The only issue we had is that the resort/Rio Mar itself is broken up into clusters, each with its own pool. We were with several other families that were in other clusters and our family was not allowed in those other clusters pools, even as a guest to the friends that we had staying in those clusters. It would have been one thing if there were actually other people (owners) using those pools but most times there were not. We felt some discretion could have been used by security in those situations as it became very frustrating and unwelcoming for our group. If you are traveling alone or have several villas all in one cluster, this is not an issue at all.

We lived staying in this space! Everything was exactly as advertised on the website. Our contact, Vannessa, was incredibly helpful both with check in and with answering various questions we had during our stay. She also had wonderful recommendations on where to eat and what beaches would be best on which day. We were very VERY happy with our stay and would highly recommend this property to our family and friends

The rental property was beautiful and great in appearance. It had everything it listed, nothing was out of place or missing so this should have been a dream stay. One big problem was the toilets, water pressure were too low. If you use and flush toilet you couldn’t get another flush for about 45 mins to an hour. 3 bathrooms for 9 people.This should not have been a problem but it was! Very irritating , inconvenient and at times disgusting. The day of the wedding ceremony we went to beach early and felt we had plenty of time to get back & ready for 4pm service. When we returned at 1130 am and started getting ready… boom… all electricity went out. Called management to be told “there is nothing we can do to help”. “The electricity was out all over.” It got hot very quickly, no AC. Water for showers were ice cold and toilets weren’t flushing again. We were miserable and pressed for time to get ready. We were so sweaty we couldn’t apply make up, and our clothes were getting damp long B4 we could even leave the house. Manager had no Idea what happened or when electricity would be coming back on. Needless to say we were not happy with how we were feeling or looking by time we got to Hotel on the site for the Wedding. We soon learned that this was a planned electrical shut down. PLANNED!! We should have been told a head of time. This absolutely ruined the wedding day for me and my family. This was the reason we came!

This was a great property for our family of 6. Easy access to the pool and a short 3 min drive to the beach - or you can do the 10 min walk. Unit itself was perfect with extra blankets, laundry amenities, and basic kitchen supplies. Definitely recommend!

Villa is beautiful and immaculate. We had such a wonderful time. Vanessa was so helpful and the trip was amazing. We will be back!!!

Host was fantastic and caring. Location is fantastic. Will definitely be going back there.

My family and I enjoyed our stay at the property. Everything was clean and she was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had! 10/10 for sure!

We were a girl scout troop using the house for a trip planned by our teenage girls. House was clean, water pressure in the showers was good. Pool near house was great and girls loved using the resort hotel pool and beach. Size was perfect for us (11 total, 4 adults, 7 girls). Beds on the first level were full size beds (adults used) to separate from the girls. Wish they were queen size, but it worked out fine. Hosts were regularly in touch and super helpful with everything.

We had a large group of 21 family members of all ages split across this Villa and a secondary property from the same owners and they were both clean and fully stocked with plenty of room and bathrooms to be comfortable. The view of El Yunque from the balcony is amazing. Everyone was friendly in the area and the booking process was easy. Vanessa greeted us when we arrived and showed us around the property. She is very friendly and was extremely helpful working with us to plan excursions ahead of our trip so that all our time was organized and we could see a lot of the island. We would definitely come back to stay again.

My family enjoyed staying here very much. It was the perfect size and layout for their family and they loved the location.

Loved this place! Our family of 9 stayed here for a few days and we had an amazing time. The home is beautifully decorated, spacious, and clean. Located in a tranquil, gated community, with access to a community pool and beach, and very close to El Yunque rainforest. They had board games for kids to play with, pool noodles for the pool, and boogie boards for the beach. The kids enjoyed all of that. And the kitchen has everything you need to be able to cook. The host was exceptional, always attentive and responsive whenever we contacted her with a question. The day we were supposed to get there, our flight got delayed and we didnt arrive until 1am. The host still waited for us at that time to show us the way to the apartment since it can be confusing the first time driving through the resort, especially at night. We were truly thankful to her for doing that.

Fun week
