    The property is beautiful with a breathtaking view. The house is fabulous, nicely decorated. As we were only 2 we choose the room facing the deck with a fantastic view. The location is remote and last mile somewhat challenging but getting there...

    We loved the fact this was a secluded property and felt very private for a romantic getaway. The views from the balcony are stunning and when the sun goes down, the chorus from the coqui frogs begin. The house has everything you need for a...

Property information

Laid-back luxury sprawled between a saltwater pool and seven acres of El Yunque’s emerald rainforest. The most challenging part of staying at Selva is deciding where to lounge. A cushioned corner overlooking the garden? A stool at the bar in the open modern kitchen? The mountain-view patio hammock? The firepit with a glass of wine? The giant outdoor rainfall shower? The deck of the heated saltwater pool that gazes out over tropical trees to mountains beyond mountains in the distance? This chic three-bedroom three-bath house in dreamy El Yunque comes with all of the above plus its own private hiking trail, designer floral arrangements installations, and custom furniture. Though it feels deliriously remote, Selva is under an hour from San Juan, and a perfect home base for excursions to Vieques, midnight paddles in Puerto Rico’s bioluminescent bay, fresh seafood dinners in Luquillo, and catamaran snorkeling trips to quiet miles of uninhabited beach.

Neighbourhood information

Although this hidden gem may feel distant, it is in close proximity to other must-see sites and cities. SELVA is less than an hour away from San Juan, and about 20 minute drive to the beaches of Luquillo/Fajardo as well as the Ceiba airport and ferry terminal - which makes it the perfect location to stay before heading or returning from the island of Vieques or Culebra. Supermarkets and pharmacies are only minutes away. The very popular Kiosks of Luquillo (typical Puerto Rican cuisine by the beach) features freshly caught fish and delicious dining experience by the water. For the nature-seeking adventurers, there are multitudes of “charcos” and waterfalls to explore and of course El Yunque National Rainforest. The bio bay in Fajardo (one of only five bio bays in the world) is only 20 minutes away. In Fajardo you can also book a catamaran snorkeling trip to the uninhabited island of Icacos Island, which forms part of the La Cordillera Reef Nature Reserve. If you just want to relax by the beach, there are plenty of spectacular beaches to choose from within 15-25 minutes from SELVA. Once you book your stay, we provide you with our useful digital guest guide that conveniently highlights all the places to see, eat, and explore.
