"THE SKY HOUSE" located on the edge of El Yunque Rain Forest - yet only a 30 minute drive to SJU Airport and the City of San Juan.
Bragging 180 degree UNOBSTRUCTED VIEWS to the valley below, San Juan, & the Pacific Ocean. A spotless, fully furnished, pet friendly home with everything you may need, including "High Speed Internet", a large fully equipped kitchen. Cooled by split air conditioning units upstairs and down, towels, bedding, a huge 400 square foot roof patio. Plus a newly added deck in front with a large plunge pool (enough room for 8) over looking the 30 plus mile views beyond.
The last house on a dead end street, "The Sky House" is part of a very small
(a dozen houses?) gated community, offering a full square acre of fully fenced lawn, total privacy & security, and a palpable sense of well being & peace. (For pet owners there is a dog run too.) Your neighbors on the entire north perimeter of the property is El Yunque Rain forest with wild flowers and jungle foliage to look over from the roof balcony.
Explore rivers, hiking trails, water falls and swimming holes. A 20 minute drive on country roads brings you to world-class, ocean front golf course resorts with upscale hotels, bars & restaurants.
A 25 minute stroll through the woods on a wide fire trail brings you to a hidden secluded swimming hole, in a rushing river, with boulders to sun on, and a large pool for swimming.(The healing drinkable mineral water is rated the purest in the US park system.)
A seven minute jungle drive north brings you to "Hacienda Siesta Alegre Hotel". A gorgeous 100 acre horse ranch (stables for rent) still run and owned by Gregg & Linda Jackson. Popular for large weddings and special events.
An eight minute mountain drive south brings you to a quirky, super cool "Fablian?" Restaurant & Bar with old cars and airplanes sticking out of the ground and gorgeous views, and a live band for Sunday Brunch. Walmart, 2 shopping centers, banks, and a multi plex movie theater, to mention a few, are just a 12 minute drive down the mountain.
The weather is always about 10 degrees cooler than in San Juan, (with a comfortable 65-80 degrees year-round & 50-70 at night. Breezes abound. Rain is often short & strong (5 minutes - 2 hours) breaking to blue skies and white puffy clouds often
showcasing every kinds of rainbow.
