The Emerald

This a great place for a quick pit stop. It was clean and very comfortable. I wish there was a little fridge and a microwave. I would stay here again and the host was available through WhatsApp.

Having stayed here multiple times in different rooms, I would opt for a different room over Topaz. Other than that, the stay was as expected.

Room was clean Nice area, the beach is about 10mins walk. Restaurants and bars just a few blocks away.

Great area and felt very safe!

I really enjoyed my stay at The Emerald a ton! My space was extremely clean and up-to-date, while also having a lot of character - it felt like a much more authentic experience than staying at a resort high rise. Its location is fantastic too, as it's within easy walking distance of the beach, a Walgreen's for essentials, as well as a couple restaurants (including the famed Kasalta). It's also a block away from a bus line that runs from the airport to Old San Juan, hitting most of the touristy areas along the shore in between, so you don't necessarily have to depend on Uber to get around.

This is our 2nd time staying here. It's very quiet and spacious. The area is great, too.

Need a mini fridge in the rooms.

Only problem was the shower in the opal room is pretty small. Other than that it was a great property!!

We look forward to another visit!

This is a great spot for young or solo travelers. Walking distance from beach, restaurants, bars, and Walgreens. No staff on property but extremely responsive by text. AC was ice cold.

Very loud, noisy area. Is almost impossible to have a decent sleep. There is ants everywhere inside the room, thank God I brought my Epinephrine Pen because I am allergic. There is no one available at the property just by text message. Completely upset, I will never recommend this property or stay again.

I have stayed in the area before but the host here was incredible. I started discussing my needs with Guatam, the host prior to my arrival. I had requested a beach chair and it was there upon arrival. The rooms are much larger than the area in general. My room the “Opal” was a studio sized room with a sitting area. The shared kitchen was right next door. The kitchen is stacked with everything one may need to cook. Utensils, dishes, pots and pans etc…. There’s a fridge and each room gets a shelf. There’s a water purifier to make ice and have filtered drinking water. Tons of outlets in the room. I love the Koi pond and the cute courtyard. The neighborhood is extremely safe as it is in Ocean Park a gated community. The Emerald is directly across the street from a gated entrance. Three short blocks away is the beach which has beautiful waves but not as intense as Condado. There’s a bunch of cafes and restaurants within walking distance and a walgreens open 24 hours 2 blocks away. It’s just extremely convenient. The price is incredible and I even extended my stay a few days. I prefer the feeling of a guesthouse over the large hotels. I also prefer supporting small businesses as much as I can. I can see why this host is a superhost. I will be back.

We landed late at night & drove to the property & and took us some time to find it. It would have been better if the name of the property was written in big lettering, at the facade.

We really enjoyed our stay, the desk receptionist at The Dream Inn helped us out a lot when we arrived early. Thank you Andrea, we loved SanSe, and hope you had fun too! The beach was so close, we swam every day, the airport is 10 minutes away, and there was free parking. The Emerald has a lovely kitchen, including a bottle filling water filtration machine, so helpful. Gracias!!

We like the convenient location, and amenities around! We think it needs to improve curtains, and include a chair or bench inside, an additional trash can, fix the bathroom handle. We like the place!!! We will use it again!!!

Nice property.
