Inside Gated Community

Spacious, newly remodeled Villa located in the prestigious Punta Las Marias gated neighborhood. Inside you will find a sun deck, ideal for tanning, bar area and pool; these in combination with the large terrace, will make your stay at Villa Doncella unforgettable. The upstairs has four bedrooms and three bathrooms (two of the bathrooms are en-suite). The master bedroom has a king-sized bed, walk-in closet, and whirlpool bathtub. There is a fifth bedroom, with a queen size bed, located on the first floor. In recent years, a small semi-private beach has formed at the end of the neighborhood; when the tide is low, it is a great place to visit and relax.

Amazing
The house was just right for the 5 couples & to me it was even better in person as the pictures made it seemed smaller than it actually is. The neighborhood was nice. Location of the house made easy to access Uber right outside the gate. House manager Jorge is quick to respond & allowed us to check in early since the house was ready.

Beautiful home
This property was beautiful and as described. I loved that it was inside a secluded gated community. It is close to the street so you do hear a lot of traffic especially at night, however it was something we got used to within a couple of days. Property manager was responsive each time I texted. Air Conditioning units kept the house cool at all times! I would recommend staying here to anyone who asked.

Great location
This was a pretty good, centralized location. The house itself needed a little TLC. It was nice but somethings needed some work so it made the stay a little frustrating. The host was very kind and very quick to respond to us which was very helpful. Overall, it was a good stay.

BEWARE
Beware! False advertising, negligent landlord, anemic customer service. During my 29 days rental: 3.5 BAs had no hot water on 9 days and no flushable toilets on 5 days (due to cheap design built without electric hot water heater to supplement solar energy on cloudy days and without on-site water tank to buffer unreliable public water system); 5 BRs all exposed to loud noise from motorcycle rallies, karaoke bar, and dog boarding kennel (all within 100 feet of bedroom windows) disrupted sleep on 8 days; semi-private beach was nonexistent except at lowest tides below 10-ft-high rock embankment; front walkway gate (unlockable) and driveway gate (only partially opens automatically) broken all 29 days; ; home improvement contractors remedying water system design deficiencies (not maintenance or repairs) shared rented living space on 7 days. VRBO processed refund of 1 day's rent early on and refuses to do more without owner's consent, while owner "refuses to negotiate" my request for equitable price adjustment for 7 day's rent, so I am disputing charges using credit card arbitration. This owner severely harmed the vacations of my family and friends while violating my trust as a prepaid tenant. Landlord's ultimatum to move out after 5 days in order to receive additional refund was useless given pending arrivals of family and friends flying in from U.S. mainland for vacations. VRBO's view that landlord met obligations under contract is absurd given the facts.

Great house - very loud in middle of night.
The house was great and the pool was very relaxing. But the constant loud motorcycle noise and music at 12 PM every single night was horrible. If you don’t mind, loud blaring noise in the middle of the night, this is a place to stay.

Sisters Retreat
My sisters and I 67yr-83yrs vacationed for one month at this house in Puerto Rico. Pros - house and pool cleaned regularly Jorge responded quickly when request were made Gated community made us feel safe and secure Cons - very noisy especially at night - initially thought it was just for the New Year but it remained noisy the entire month of January (we got used to the noise so it wasn’t too bad but for sure do not expect quiet nights.)

Love this property!
This is my second time staying here and I will be booking for next year God willing. The manager Jorge is super accommodating and accessible. Dealing with him is always a pleasure. My team enjoyed their accommodations and the space in the house. The beds are super comfortable and I could barely get up. You will not be disappointed. The area is mostly quiet safe. It's inconvenient to the airport and other places of interests in san juan.

Perfect Family Home
We took our family and some friends to visit the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. The house and location were ideal for those looking to have a central location to many amenities, beaches, and shops. Jorge, the host, was very attentive and provided great communication. Everything about this stay was beyond what we had expected. We’ll would definitely stay here again.

Great location. Located in walking distance of restaurants and a short uber ride to the beach and tourist locations. The tv by the pool had poor reception and the property could have provided more towels and wash cloths for our large party. I would stay here again.

Everything you want/need and more....
This was my first time using VRBO, and I must say, I am very impressed with the host, Jorge, the loction and the property itself. The location was PERFECT, especially being that it was my first trip to PR. Very close to everything you might want to do or see on your first trip there. PR-based coffee shop, 787 Coffee close by absolutely incredible coffee and amazing service, must try. Everything is a short 10 minute/5 dollar Uber ride away. The gated community felt very safe. Also, it is the first house by the entrance of the community which is perfect so you don't have to lug your bags far and you can order an Uber from the house and meet it in a minute when you get outside. The property; saw some other reviews complaining about 2 things, one was the dog kennel next door and the other was an annoying neighbor complaining about music. NEITHER of which gave us ANY issues. The bedrooms were amazing, was looking for a place with 5 comfortable bedrooms for 5 large adults and this was great. Air conditioning was great and the place was cool when we checked in. Cooler, beach chairs available, pool was perfect and clean. Had a small BBQ. No bug/critter issues. The host; Jorge was the actual MVP of this trip. Very responsive, was able to give us an earlier check in and later checkout which was clutch because flight was delayed, would write more but ive reached the character limit, overall I'd give it a 10 Stars if I could. Without a doubt, I will be staying here again. Stay here!!!

Excellent place to stay with many amenities; however it is located in a very busy and loud area
I came here to celebrate a bachelor's party and it was everything and more than I had hoped for. The house was spotless, and most importantly there are AC units in every room to keep you cool from the hot PR summer weather. The gated community makes you feel very safe, however it is the very last house on the street closest to the gate and all of the bars and restaurants next door. Be prepared to be kept awake or awakened by the roosters crowing, the motorcycles and the UTVs that are going up and down the street all night until 6am. We did not have any issue with the dog daycare next door like some other reviews mentioned. We were able to park 2 jeeps in the driveway and close the gate with the included clickers. The roads in PR are very bad and full of potholes, so I recommend renting a SUV. Ubers are very inexpensive as well compared to the states. Power did go out a couple times with the bad energy grid and all of the AC units running across the state, but the house has a backup generator which turns on automatically. However I recommend the host get this generator serviced because it started surging and even almost stalled once. Other than that, I recommend this to any other large group coming here to party as well.

Great villa in a great location
Wonderful villa! The property is in a very safe part of San Juan and is next to some wonderful restaurants. The lockbox can be tricky to find but the host was wonderful helping us out! The hot water can also be tricky, just barley turn the water on to trigger it. Otherwise, its the best place. We will definitely be back!

Very nice for large groups
We enjoyed our stay here. The house was perfect with everything you need for a large group. The is a very nice restaurant next door. The neighborhood was very safe and clean. The host was responsive when contacted. The pool and backyard was a big plus, bring mosquito repellent. The only down fall is the street noise from the main road outside the Neighborhood. The is a lot of late night, sometimes till 3am, loud music and cars doing burnouts and 360's. I guess it is a local party thing,

Worst place to stay for a friend group vacation
The VRBO was clean and very spacious. We enjoyed the house and amenities offered however what ruined our time was the constant complaints of noise from the neighbor. She was so rude and demanding us to turn of our portable speaker at 7pm. She would come over threatening us and DEMANDING we turn our music off and be quiet (we were enjoying the pool) because she has a family. We were told the music was allowed until 10pm and she would have a tantrum every single night about this. Our host was reasonable as well. But if you don’t want your time ruined I would highly suggest to stay elsewhere as you get a noise complaint just being outside with your vacay group enjoying the patio.

Great house in good area
House was better than the pictured. Pool area has a foosball table, a bar area, a swinging chair, a table to eat at, and a couch to sit at. Such a nice layout with all the rooms upstairs (one is downstairs) and the living area all connected downstairs. The gate into the street situation is a little tricky with the clickers but was worth feeling safe on the street. Close to a few small places in walking distance to eat and good distance for drives to more popular areas. Didn't have a problem ordering Ubers who waited right outside the gate that's right outside the house - it was automatically where they come by entering the address. Kitchen had all the tools needed to use & grill worked fine. Also didn't have a problem with water - worth noting that some of the shower faucets worked opposite of what we are used to which is maybe why some people could have thought hot water was broken... Overall - great stay, would recommend & go again!

Great time in San Juan!
We had a great stay at this property in March 2022. We had a few small issues but Jorge was quick to address them. A few people in the group were bothered by barking dogs or loud birds early in the morning, so not the quietest spot, but we generally had a great time. We really enjoyed the outdoor space, the short walk to a nearby beach and the convenience of the nearby Shell station.
