Villa Casablanca – Modern Rainforest Estate Welcome to Villa Casablanca in Colinas del Yunque, a rare and stunning modern estate in the lush hills of Río Grande. Surrounded by tropical gardens with fruit trees and a vibrant rainforest backyard, this two-unit property offers privacy, peace, and exceptional income potential — just minutes from El Yunque National Forest. With a total of 3,366 sq. ft. of living space, this turnkey estate blends modern design with natural beauty and is currently one of the best-performing Airbnb's in the area. The downstairs unit is a fully operational, income-producing Airbnb generating $6,000 to $7,000 month and growing. It features four bedrooms, one full bathroom and a half bath, an open-concept kitchen with wood countertops and modern appliances, and a spacious dining and living area that opens directly to the backyard. Minimalist furnishings, tropical accents, split-unit A/Cs throughout, and a dedicated laundry area complete the setup — all designed for guest comfort and seamless management. The upstairs unit can serve as either a luxury private residence or an additional income opportunity. It includes three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, a walk-in closet, a designer kitchen with high-gloss cabinetry, wood countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. The living areas have bright, open interiors that combine elevated ceilings, handcrafted shelving, and tasteful décor. A dining space overlooks the surrounding nature, while the tiled patio features a covered lounge, ceiling fans, and outdoor dining areas. The showstopper: Built into Hill, abutting the terrace, is a large infinity pool offering stunning views of the Atlantic Ocean. The two units could easily be converted into a single home for a grand family compound. Set on elevated land, the home offers a unique vantage point — where floor-to-ceiling doors invite in natural light and the outdoors feels like an extension of your living space. A quiet, bubbling brook flows along the back edge of the property, creating a constant, soothing ambiance that enhances the overall experience. Additional features include an 18 kW automatic whole house generator and a 500-gallon aluminum water cistern, providing uninterrupted comfort and peace of mind. Located just 5 minutes from El Yunque, minutes from the village of Palmer with restaurants and galleries, 10 minutes from Río Grande beaches and the Wyndham Hotel — with club membership available — and 35 minutes from San Juan International Airport, Villa Casablanca is a rare find. Whether you’re looking to expand your short-term rental portfolio, own a private retreat in nature, or both — this modern rainforest estate offers unmatched value and versatility in one of Puerto Rico’s most enchanting regions. Come and make this slice of paradise yours today!
