We are a family (4 adults; 2 adolescent kids) on vacation in Puerto Rico. Estrella del sol was the best place we've stayed so far. Spacious. Super clean. Well-equipped. Lots of thoughtful amenities, like 2 kinds of coffeemakers and an electric tea kettle. Books, games, and videos for kids of all ages. Very responsive, friendly hosts who live on-site. It's a little of the beaten path, but is in a quiet neighborhood with good access to Luquillo, the beach and Los Kioscos and El Yunque. We had a great time!

The location of this property was ideal for our trip. We were able to visit nearby friends/ family (in Rio Grande and Fajardo) and take day trips to the nearby towns of El Yunque, Piñones, Carolina, and even Old San Juan. Our unit was nicely decorated, and well-maintained. The property owner communicated well, and was quick to respond to my questions. Enjoyed our stay!
