What are some nice apt complexes in Puerto Rico?

Question

I need a 1 or 2 BR within driving distance to the mall (plaza las americas) and would like to be close to a decent beach. all the places i've seen online are vacation rentals, which make them fairly expensive. i've looked at rent.com and apartments.com but they dont list PR apts for some reason. Also, what are the pet policies for PR? I have a box turtle I want to take. I know Hawaii is fairly strict on their policy about animals being taken to/from the island because of environmental issues.

what, thanks. could anyone also tell me which specific areas around san juan and the mall would be decent to live in and close to the beach? i see a ton of areas when im looking for apts, but i really dont know how close they are to where i want to be. i would prefer not to drive more than 30 mins to work, so are there any hip areas close to the beach i should check out?

Answer 1

First of all to live close to Plaza and the beach you will be looking at Isla Verde, Condado, and Ols San Juan area. They are very, very expensive. Even if they are not vacation rentals. Studios are about $800-$1000, and apartments are more than $1,200.
I would recommend you to look at Guaynabo area which is very good, not that close to the beach but 15-20 min away, or Ocean Park area which is like a neighborhood next to the beach. The houses are kind of old but they are in walking distance to the beach and oif you look carefully you may find something around $1,000.

These are just examples currently on PR newspapre listed for rent. They are in Isla Verde and Ocean park area which are close to the mall and to the beach. If you are willing to sacrifice living next to the beach... look in Hato rey area (Baldrich neighborhood and Monte Mall Apartments) 5-10 away from the mall and 15 from the beach.

Go to ww.clasificadosendi.com for current listing on PR newspaper.

Good luck!

Answer 2

Checkout www.clasificadosonline.com, there you can find listing of apt. for rent by location.

Walking distance to the beach is Isla Verde(carolina) Or Condado, Ocean Park. Hato rey And Rio Piedras(San Juan) Is like 15 min to the beach and 5 min. to plaza las americas.

No matter were you move you will be near a beach or a mall

I would also recomend Guaynabo 15 to 20 min the most to both plaza and the beach.
