Spectacular view from this splendid secluded House overlooking the Caribbean.

RAINBOW PARADISE is a gorgeous modern sustainable house with HIGH CEILING, NATURAL AIR FLOW and AIR CONDITIONING, built on a SIX ACRES SECLUDED PROPERTY overlooking the Caribbean. It is located in the hills of North View Estates offering SPECTACULAR VIEWS of the surrounding hillsides, ocean and Manglar and Pela Bay. The private pool facing the ocean offers privacy while opening to unobstructed view of the Caribbean blue and emerald water melting into the infinite tropical sky. It also offers a great way to relax after a day at the beach or sunbathing on your secluded patio. The private access road is entirely paved for our guests comfort.
This four bedrooms home consists of three separate buildings, connected by amazing archways and extensive tropically landscaped patios. The master bedroom is located on the main level with direct view of the ocean and pool, and has a king size bed, along with a large private bath. The studio apartment is situated on the main level as well, but is separated from the master bedroom in order to offer more privacy. The two dwellings are nevertheless connected by a protected arched hallway.
This " casita" studio has a full bathroom, kitchnette, and queen size bed. A coach in the living area of the studio can also be converted into a bed.
The kitchen and living room are also on the main floor, facing the common plaza, the loan, the pool and the magnificent Manglar Bay down below.
The 2 other bedrooms are located under the main kitchen/living room area and are connected to the rest of the house by a covered stairway,close to the entrance of the upper bedrooms, making it easy for parents and children to be connected if necessary. But it is also designed to offer privacy if the guests choose so. One of the bedroom has a queen size bed, the other a double bed. They share a full bathroom located between the 2 rooms.
There is also an outdoor bathroom at the pool level .

A Top Choice in Culebra
Our 6-night stay at Eco-House was memorable and Michael was a gracious host who accommodated our special requests. The top virtues of this unique place are as follows: 1. Location: secluded and high overlooking Las Pelas bay yields a beautiful view, a nice breeze and a quiet and private environment. 2. Pool: essential to cool off and big enough for our group. It was a highlight. 3. Poolside deck: the main gathering place for long dinners alfresco or just hanging out. We spent hours every night at the deck. 4. Home design: lots of open space with separate rooms result in an airy resort feel with privacy for occupants. 5. A/Cs: the bedroom units are fitted with effective units and help a good night sleep. Be advised these are for nighttime use only per house rules. 6. Water: the pressure is good (cannot take that for granted in Culebra) and supply plenty thanks to a big cistern. 7. Power: Solar/battery based which avoids disruption from a power outage. Air conditioning in the main family room/kitchen would have been nice to have for hot nights when the breeze dies down and dining/gathering inside would be more comfortable. However, there are floor fans to help with that. Furnishings and appliances are practical, especially the dishwasher, but there was no washer on site, which can be helpful for a long stay. No real need for a dryer as air drying was easy. In summary, Eco-house is a fabulous place for a group stay and home base to explore and enjoy Culebra. Thumbs up!

Gem in Culebra
This beautiful property quickly became home for our small extended family. Its common areas - pool deck, kitchen/living room, breezeway - all connect seamlessly. We felt very much 'together' without being cramped. The bedrooms were comfortable as well. We liked the ability to close them off and use AC or leave them open to the breeze. The property is beautifully landscaped. It is covered by carefully watered vegetation that contributes to the feeling of being away from it all, as you certainly are on the quiet side of Culebra. The view over Las Pelas is pretty great too. Communication with the host, Michael, was excellent. Once we navigated a few common quirks with appliances & amenities, our time here was very smooth. Highly recommend!

Relaxing week in paradise
We truly loved our stay! The property is breathtaking with orchids and flowers everywhere, an incredible view, and plenty of space for our group of 6 adults and two kids under two. Our daughter loved the pool, chasing lizards, and room between the buildings. For multiple families, there’s ample space to spend time together or break off and do your own thing. We truly loved our stay! I would recommend it for anyone looking to take a step away from the regular grind and slooooow way down.

Mucho amore para ti Culebra!
This house is perfect, in every way. I could stop there but I’ll go on :) We spent a glorious week in Culebra - the island is magic and this house, from the very beginning, a warm and welcoming ambassador. The first thing you experience are lush, tropical, well maintained grounds dotted with beautiful flora and fauna. The configuration of the house/bedrooms were perfect for our two families (6 in total). In our case sleeping ‘suites’ (both ensuite) for the adults on the upper level, and a lovely ‘kids wing’ on the lower, with two good sized bedrooms/shared bathroom. The upper level of the house is connected by a breezeway of arches, a simple detail that creates elegant architectural drama, tying the ample outdoor areas together. The indoor living area/kitchen are sized right and simply outfitted, with everything needed for lounging/meal prep in a communal setting. The lovely patio/pool configuration is comfortable for swimming and/or sunbathing, which for us was perfect for relaxing while keeping an eye on the kids. And the view! This truly deserves its own review! Day or night this sweeping vista took my breath away, like peering through an exotic looking glass. Host Micheal was an absolute pleasure to deal with -accommodating and quick to respond, before and during our stay. House manager Jose, met us at the ferry, took us to the house and made sure we were well looked after. In conclusion, drop everything, get yourself there now, you’ll wonder what took you so long!

Amazing Property in Culebra
This vacation paradise met all of our expectations! It has a wonderful layout for family or a group of friends. The views are outstanding and the pool area is wonderful. The rooms are large and we had plenty of space to spread out. The surrounding acreage has lots of gorgeous plants, many are flowering to add to their beauty. Michael was very responsive when we gave him some feedback about stocking the kitchen with a few more cooking essentials. Don't hesitate to book this property and to visit Culebra in general. It is a very special island and we definitely recommend a day trip to Culebrita for snorkeling and spending time on one of the most spectacular beaches we have ever visited!

Great house for great friends
My husband and I stayed on the property with another couple, and it was perfect. There are enough separate spaces for everyone to have privacy, but still come together in the common spaces. The kitchen was fully equipped and perfect for cooking as a group, and there’s a good blender for mixed drinks :) It was easy to get everywhere we needed to go on the island, nothing was more than a 20 minute drive away. The pool, view, and landscaping made it a luxurious place to stay.

An incredible experience
If you get the chance to visit Culebra and stay at Rainbow Paradise, it will truly be an incredible experience. The views overlooking the pool were like something out of a movie and never got old during our stay. The landscaping was also beautiful, beginning at the bottom of the long/winding driveway and carried to the top of the house and surrounding yard. It was full of flowers, shrubs, and cacti, all placed perfectly to enhance the scenic atmosphere without encroaching on the patio/pool and views. The bedrooms and common areas were spacious, offered plenty of seating for our group of 8 adults, and were well stocked with towels and cookware. The weeks prior to our arrival, and even a few times during our stay, we had general questions that Michael responded to almost immediately, providing advice/solutions and overall being very pleasant to talk to. While it took a couples days to adjust to “island life” (i.e. throwing toilet paper in the trash can instead of the toilet, grocery stores and restaurants closing by 7pm-9pm, some stores not open on Sundays at all, and the one lane roads in town), once we got back home we found ourselves missing the simplicity and laid back culture. We rented two jeeps from Jerry’s, which I would definitely recommend if you are planning to visit all the beaches (there were several steep hills that I’m not sure a golf cart would make it up). Michael advised we should confirm Jerry’s would be open if we arrived past 5pm because previous guests had an issue so I was a little worried that we might miss the pickup time since we were taking the 3:30pm ferry, but the staff assured me they would wait for us. Our ferry ended up arriving late, a few minutes after 5pm, but Jerry’s shuttle was waiting for us as promised and we had no issues getting the rentals. Lastly, Michael left an amazing binder full of activities and restaurants to try during our stay. Every recommendation we tried was a 10/10 - the food at Zacos Tacos, Dingy Dock, La Cocina, Mamacitas, the beaches at Flamenco, Tamarindo, Zoni, Melones, the shopping in town… our only regret was not being able to do them all. Guess that means we will have to be back :)

Beautiful, peaceful home, perfect pool, stunning views, amazing vacation!
We feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to stay at Rainbow Paradise. Even with our two active boys (5 & 6 years-old), we were able to have many peaceful and relaxing moments at the house. The pool is really great, perfect size and depth (approx. 12’ x 30’ and 6’6” deep). We used it morning, noon and night when we weren’t at one of the beaches. We also loved playing cards/games, and cooking meals in the open living room/kitchen, the ventilation with the windows and doors open plus the fans kept it very comfortable! A minor issue that arose during our stay was quickly and thoroughly addressed and followed-up on by Michael and Jose which made us feel even more comfortable at the house. Any questions we had were quickly answered; communication was great. The bedrooms were very comfortable, we were a group of 4, so we only used the main floor bedrooms. We would take a swim at night before bed, turn on the ceiling fan and leave the sliding doors open and the temp was perfect, we didn’t need the A/C most nights. All-in-all, it was an amazing place to stay with everything we needed to thoroughly enjoy our time on Culebra. We wish we could have stayed another week and hope to be back soon!

Private, the best views, awesome pool
The property is exactly as described - actually it is more impressive in person! We loved the location on the quiet side of the island near Zoni beach and the very private driveway with a gate. Beautifully landscaped. Pool is perfect. Nice wide steps on shallow end, and deep end is actually swimmable (meaning it’s not just a little dip pool). We rented different houses on Culebra for about 8 years now, and this house by far had the best setup for outdoor entertaining - LOTS of patio space, a grill, table and chairs, pool furniture. (Again the VIEWS and POOL!). All of the 4 bedrooms are physically separated with private bathrooms which is so great to balance privacy with family under one roof. It was clean, nice towels, bed linens, kitchen supplies, beach cooler, pool towels, and chairs (and nice, functional ones! Hard to come by in Culebra rentals! LOL! The owner Michael was extremely responsive, friendly, and seems to have great pride in the house (decorating, maintenance, etc.). I would say the house was PERFECT if not one for one teeny, tiny thing - there is no washer/dryer at the house. That was tough for a 2-week stay and trying to pack as light as possible. Even just a washer alone would help. But 5 stars deserves anyway! Still the best house we’ve stayed at- so gorgeous! Thank you Michael! ❤️🙏🌺🌴☀️

Rescued our vacation
The beach days and other activities were wonderful. We have been to Culebra a number of times over the years. It has been our "go-to" vacation destination. I am therefore familiar with the importance of having a rented vehicle on the island. I made a reservation with Jerry's Jeeps for an 8- passenger van, weeks in advance. When we arrived at 5 PM on New Year's Eve, Jerry's was closed, with no sign of activity inside. Phone calls went unanswered and there was not even a recording. I sent Michael, the owner a message through Vrbo and he responded immediately. Jose, who is the caretaker at the house, showed up within minutes in a pickup. truck with a taxi following, which was necessary to transport our party of 8, on New Year's Eve! We were made to feel very much at home without any issues or problems. Thanjk you Jose, thank you Michael (and Damaris the taxi driver)! Next time we use our tried and true Carlos Jeeps. The manager came in on New Year's Day, when the business was closed tporent us a minivan. Incredible hospitality.

Sublime Retreat!
I've rented some pretty amazing vacation properties throughout my life, and this one Beats Them All The view, the view, the view ... from the patio, from the pool ... Up on a hill, overlooking an amazing bay, with reefs and blue waters and sailboats! ... The early mornings, the sunsets, the breezes -- just insane!! The grounds, the landscaping, the flowers, the cactus, the attention to detail (framing the views, etc) ... And all in keeping with the natural surroundings ... Really amazing. The house itself ... Open and connected to the outdoors, via big windows and sliding glass doors, and importantly the beautiful outdoor covered hallway with arches ... Loved loved it! If you're looking for an unique, luxurious vacation home on an authentic, undisturbed island that's "real" - no luxury resorts, no Starbucks - and has the most beautiful (snorkeling) beaches in the world (quiet Zoni is 5 minutes away, and incomparable Flamenco a mere 15) ... Well you've found it ;)

Spectacular Escape!
Every aspect of this rental was spectacular and exceeded our expectations. For anyone looking to escape in luxury and beauty I couldn’t recommend a better home. The rooms were spacious and clean and the kitchen and living area was beautiful. We had everything we needed to make all our meals at home and appreciated the fully stocked kitchen in terms of cutlery, crockery, blender, coffee machine, grill, and pots and pans. We were so grateful for the folding chairs to take to the beach and spent hours poolside with an unparalleled view of the bay. We loved walking through the gorgeous garden and marveled at the wide variety of plants and flowers. We had fantastic communication and were greeted at the airport and brought straight to our new home. Spectacular all around. We will definitely be back!
