Escape your busy life and stay in the heart of Puerto Rico! Casa Juani - Orocovis is a cozy home sitting on a hill surrounded by breathtaking beautiful views! Enjoy a walk, outdoor adventures, friendly neighbors, local rivers/lakes, Cacique brewing company, local restaurants, zip lining, and the infamous Toro Verde Nature Adventure Park! This house is very special as it is a place my family once called home.
CASA JUANI sits on a beautiful high mountain road directly from the road. This extraordinary house is in a well-known area called Saltos Coli. The ultimate goal at Casa Juani is to discover serenity, rejuvenation, and reconnect with nature. Breathe fresh air and take in the breathtaking views. Please expect narrow, steep & winding country roads on your way to Casa Juani. Orocovis is the heart of the island, so it is about 1 hour and 20 minutes from San Juan/Airport.
Parking:
Guests may park one car in the driveway or up to 3 additional vehicles to the right of the house, where there is ample parking.
Countryside Benefits:
Rest assured, the house is naturally cool in the evenings due to its mountainous location, eliminating the need for an air conditioner. Each bedroom has 54-inch remote-controlled high-speed ceiling fans along with stand-up oscillating fans located in the closets in each bedroom.
Maximize your comfort:
We have equipped the house with screens on all its windows and doors to ensure your comfort. The exterior has solar-powered insect zappers and an extra electric bug zapper. These items are provided to maximize your comfort, although you may not need them. We do suggest you bring your own preferred insect spray for exploring in and around the town and island.
Transportation:
Due to the mountainous location, you must have a vehicle to travel around Orocovis, Puerto Rico. We recommend a 4x4 vehicle when possible.
The town center, "Plaza Publica de Orocovis," is about an 8-minute drive from Casa Juani. Here you will find coffee shops, bakeries, fast food areas, shopping, supermarket, local restaurants, and more.
Uber/Taxi/Lyft/Uber Eats and Public Transportation is not available in this area.
