The Space:

It features top-quality furnishing, a large and luxurious kitchen, and wonderful community amenities such as beach access, a large swimming pool, tennis courts, and basketball courts. Guests love the excellent location which is less than 10 minutes from the El Yunque Rainforest, 5-10 minutes from a wide array of beaches and has excellent dining options nearby.
Villa Vereda includes 2 parking spots. We strongly recommend having your own vehicle as there is a multitude of activities within a 30-minute drive that you will not want to miss out on. Uber and Taxis are hard to arrange in this area.
