Historic 3BR + Private Terrace · Ocean Park · Steps to Beach & Loíza St

Welcome to La Chiocciola Apt 3 — a stunning 3-bedroom apartment in a beautifully preserved 1940s colonial building in the heart of Ocean Park, one of San Juan's most sought-after addresses.
The original 1940s colonial tiles set the tone the moment you walk in — a nod to San Juan's rich architectural heritage. The fully refreshed kitchen and brand-new bathrooms ensure every modern comfort is at your fingertips. Each bedroom features a queen bed and air conditioning, and the living room includes a flat-screen TV and a queen sofa bed — comfortably accommodating up to 8 guests.
Step outside onto your private terrace and fire up the BBQ — the perfect setting for an evening under the Puerto Rican sky, with the warm breeze and the sound of the city all around you. One parking spot is available on-site (shared, first-come basis).
Location could not be better. Steps from the beach, walking distance to restaurants, supermarkets, and boutique shops, and just around the corner from the vibrant and colorful Loíza Street — one of San Juan's most beloved neighborhoods. A 24/7 supermarket is just 5 minutes away, a famous local breakfast spot is right around the corner, and La Placita de Santurce is only 5–7 minutes away — the heart of San Juan's nightlife and food scene. Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport is only 7 minutes away, making your arrival and departure completely stress-free.
This is not just a place to stay — it is a place to live San Juan like a local.

Wonderful home in the heart of San Juan

We loved being in a home with 3 bedrooms. Loved the balcony to enjoy coffee in the mornings or an evening cocktail. A short drive or within walking distance to excellent restaurants and the beach. We would definitely return.

Very good Stay

Great stay for the price. Location was convenient to everything. Only 16 minutes to Old San Juan, close to beach, shops and restaurants. Parking could be a little better. There is parking but it’s narrow and you can easily get blocked in. Owner was very responsive when needed. Very good stay. I would recommend.

Excellent Host

Cristian is an excellent host. We arrived at the property about 11:00 PM and VRBO had not sent me the check-in details. Cristian was very responsive and assisted with us getting into the property, even phoning me to ensure we were in. The property is within walking distance of restaurants and bars so it is a good location. Really enjoyed our stay and would stay again next time in San Juan.

Buen viaje

Cristian was very responsive to our questions. The bedrooms were nice, and the beds and sheets were quite comfortable. The location was great for walking to restaurants, shops, and the beach. We ended up parking on the street instead of in the spaces on the sides of the building since the protocols were a little unclear (to be fair, we did not contact Cristian about it). There is a busy highway nearby, so there was some noise. We would stay here again.

Santurce Adventure

Family of 4 stayed at this property for 3 nights. Our adult children had not been to Puerto Rico before and this was the perfect launch pad for a few days in San Juan. Property was well stocked with all of the basics and was clean. It was easy to find. The outdoor space included with this rental was charming and made the space very comfortable. Air conditioning worked great. We could walk to restaurants and beaches, area felt safe. Parking was easy and convenient. Would stay again.
