Oh my goodness this place is a little slice of heaven!!! Wow it is so peaceful and such a great spot to relax and get away. The views from the bedroom and bathtub felt like you were at a Ritz Carlton! Absolutely breathtaking and stunning. The host was beyond helpful and responsive and always available immediately. She really went above and beyond. Her local reccomendations were SO good too, I think I found my new favorite PR restaurant because of her!!! Check out the pizza and fresh cocktails place on her to do list it is so cool. I would 100% come back here!!
This place is everything you could dream of if you are looking for a romantic mountain getaway. The views are stunning and the studio is spacious with a wonderful bathroom. Kitchen has everything you'll need to whip up a great meal if you choose. The roads getting to the house are challenging but very doable. I had a two wheel drive care & was fine the entire time. 95% of the roads are pathed. All the hikes around the area are immaculate and still doable after Hurricane Fiona. Angelique is probably the best host I've had as far as communication goes. Here direction, suggestions, and availability is impeccable.
