What is a better way to spend time with family than by going on a vacation together? However, the real challenge comes with choosing the perfect place and planning. If you want a place that excites the kids, offers relaxation for the adults, and allows you to immerse yourself in its refreshing local culture. Think no further than 259 Tanca 3, a conveniently located family-friendly vacation rental in the heart of Old San Juan, Puerto Rico.
Reasons to Choose Us
Room for More: Our family-friendly vacation rental has three bedrooms, each with a queen bed that easily fits two people and two sofas for four people. And, you do not have to worry about ‘enough room’ for your big family because everyone will have spacious and comfortable space to relax and unwind.
Walking Distance Away from the Nightlife: The Old San Juan nightlife is enchanting and famous for its bars, pubs, and restaurants. Located in the heart of the city, Calle de la Tanca is famous for its array of Instagram-worthy bars and restaurants. Here, you can treat yourself and your family to delicious recipes from Puerto Rico and enjoy some time at the local nightclubs and bars with your partner.
Immerse in the Local Culture: Not only will you and your family be a few steps away from the aesthetics of brightly colored colonial architecture and the cobbled streets, but also historical marvels such as the Castillo San Felipe del Morro, a sixteenth-century structure built by the Spaniards to protect the island from invasion. Filled with whispers of the past, this timeless beauty offers you plenty of room to indulge the historical geek within you and for the kids to run around. And do not forget to spend an evening on the famous Fortaleza Street as you explore the local flavors and culture on the iconic street of Old San Juan.
Adventure at Every Corner: Horse-drawn carriages clip-clop down the streets—the iconic tourist spots are not the only places to keep you and your loved ones engaged. Delight in a refreshing scoop of gelato and watch street performers juggle and dance. Take a boat tour and see the impressive city walls. For a touch of nature, you can head to the nearby Paseo de la Princesa waterfront park, perfect for a picnic or bike ride—the ideal holiday spent with kids.
Pack Less, Enjoy More: Vacations are for enjoying your time off work with your work, not keeping tabs on the number of bags you are carrying—that is annoying, right? But you won’t need to pack in excess here. At 259 Tanca 3, our vacation rental in Old San Juan, you get the benefits of a functional kitchen with cooking basics available, along with other amenities like heating, Wi-Fi, a hairdryer, and even a crib at request.
A Home Away from Home: Often, during vacations, we end up feeling homesick for various reasons. The lack of home-cooked food, the luxury to washing and drying your clothes whenever you wish to, and the general lack of leisurely time are some of the primary reasons. Vacations are fun rides, but that doesn’t mean you and your family do not deserve to feel at home. This is where a vacation rental differs from an overpriced hotel; you get a home away from home—with all the facilities like a ready-to-use kitchen, a washer and dryer, and plenty of space to lounge comfortably and enjoy your privacy.
What You Need to Pack
At our family vacation rental, you get everything you need for your accommodations, yet there are a few must-add items to your luggage that you will need here at Old San Juan to get the most out of your trip.
Plenty of Sunscreen: Filled with pristine water bodies and beaches, the sun shines high and bright here in San Juan, and while tanning is good and you get plenty of vitamin D, sunburns are never pretty. Sunscreen is a must on your vacation to the city.
Breathable Clothes: The city’s climate suits lightweight, breathable clothes best—fill your bags with cotton and other breathable fabrics to beat the heat when the sun is high and bright. Skirts, tank tops, shorts, and sundresses—bring your summer wardrobe with you.
Walking Shoes: While sandals and flip-flops are good beach options, remember to pack a pair of walking shoes to keep your feet comfortable for long walks on the cobbled streets of the charming city.
Along with the amenities provided at our family-friendly vacation rental, we also take precautions for your safety. Our rental, 259 Tanca 3, has smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, security cameras, and audio recording devices—so that you and your lovely family can enjoy a sweet and safe holiday in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico.
