The Space:
Nestled in the 500-year-old historic Spanish colonial city of Old San Juan, Villa Azulejo is the ideal basecamp to explore Old San Juan history, restaurants, shopping, and nightlife. You will love people watching from the comfort of this 2 bedroom apartment that has spectacular double doors that open to the sidewalk of San Jose Street. The location is ideal for those looking to be close to the action in Old San Juan, located less than a block from the busy nightlife and restaurants of Calle San Sebastian and a short walk from El Morro Spanish fort. It is also just a few steps from the Old San Juan Cathedral.
The apartment sleeps six adults, has one queen bed, two full beds, a four-person dining table, an updated and fully stocked kitchen, and a living room with flat-screen TV and WIFI.
IMPORTANT NOTE: It is important to mention that this is a ground-level unit with wooden windows and doors overlooking the street - guests will hear street noise at night and that is part of the charm!
LIVING AREAS
Enter Villa Azulejo to an open layout that includes a comfortable living room with a sofa and flat-screen TV, a 4-person dining table and a renovated and fully stocked kitchen. All this with the spectacular double doors that you can completely open to the street or leave closed with windows to let sunlight in. The villa has air conditioning and WIFI. The layout makes very efficient use of space and the cathedral ceilings make the area feel much larger. It is important to mention that the loft is street level, so you will hear the street noise typical of urban locations. There is one full bathroom with a standing shower. Bath and beach towels are included.

10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
Great property with a very convenient location. There was plenty of space, very clean and nice decor. I would highly recommend this property for your visit to old town.
8 / 10Excellent·Sep 2025
Great location at the city center, which can also be a bit noisy at night.
10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2025
We stayed here two nights and enjoyed our time in this sweet apartment nestled in the heart of Old Town. During the day walked to all the sites. Staying at this space, we were never more than a few blocks from whatever we needed: the market, restaurants galore, and a late-night drink. The master bed was like a memory foam and oh-so comfortable and cooling.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2025
This villa was a fun option for our girls trip, however, if you're looking for a quiet property, this is not the one. It is very loud on Fri/Sat nights due to its proximity to downtown, which is not the biggest issue if you are also coming home at 2am like the rest of the town. The location is great for day time exploring of old san juan and going out at night. The bunkbed room was pretty musty, visible mold all over the walls and no ability to open the window to freshen the air. besides that, we had a great time and dont regret staying here.
