Spectacular Ocean Views, Spacious Home, and Private Location.


Please take note of Puerto Rico's COVID related travel requirements described on their "travelsafe" web page.

Our two-story home "Alturas De Culebra" (Heights of Culebra) is situated on nearly two private acres of prime hillside property and offers panoramic views of Fulladoza Bay and the Carribbean Sea. There is over 2,000 square feet of interior space plus an additional 1,500 square feet of covered and uncovered patios to take advantage of the Caribbean breezes.

The first level offers a spacious living room and a dining table with views of the ocean. The room opens onto the covered patio, which has ocean views and is set up for outdoor dining. The kitchen is well equipped and generous on space, and a large outdoor propane grill is situated directly outside the kitchen. The first floor has both a full bathroom and an outdoor shower.

The second level of the home features a wrap-around deck with spectacular panoramic views of the ocean. Enjoy beautiful sunrises from the deck in the morning, and stargazing at night. The main house contains 2 bedrooms while the third bedroom is a casita. All 3 bedrooms, each with air conditioning, ensuite bathroom, and walk-in closet, are located on the second level. They provide maximum privacy while enjoying the views and breezes of Culebra.

The home is surrounded by beautiful terraced gardens with thoughtfully planted flora. You will find flowering trees, and fruit trees around the property, including passion fruit, limes, oranges, and oregano.

There is a different beautiful beach to visit every day of the week on Culebra. All of the beaches are within 5 to 20 minutes from our house. For the adventurous, you can hike to the virgin beaches of Playa Resaca, Brava or Carlos Rosario. You can also charter a water taxi or a sailboat to the beautiful unspoiled islands of Culebrita and Luiz Pena.

NOTES:

For more than 2 people, the additional fee is $25.00/night for each additional person.

Thanks very much for choosing to stay at our Culebra home!

Fantastic House and Stay at Alturas de Culebra
We were extremely happy with our week-long stay at "Alturas de Culebra." This was our 8th visit to Culebra but our first time at this house. Before check-in, Alissa and Jeff were very prompt in responding to questions via email, and check-in was flawless: Jessie, the caretaker, met us at Carlos Jeep Rental at the appointed time, led us to the house and showed us around the well-landscaped property. Like other reviewers, we must stress that a Jeep, with 4-wheel drive, is a must to go up the steep dirt driveway. The entire house--including the kitchen--was immaculately clean and was very well equipped with everything one would need. We liked the dedicated faucet with filtered water for drinking. Everything in the house works: sliding doors, windows, hot/cold water, and ceiling fans. The beds were very comfortable and plenty of hooks in bathrooms too! There are convenient labels identifying which switches work for ceiling fans or lights. We did not use the AC since there was a constant breeze and we did not turn on the TV. As far as beach equipment, there is a storage closet with snorkeling gear and beach chairs, and beach towels were provided as well. We had breakfasts and some lunches on the lower patio, enjoying the beautiful views and fresh breezes, and we ate dinners at the local restaurants. Grade: A++. Jeff and Alissa are wonderful owners, who have renters' welfare in mind. The binder with house/island information was very helpful too! Thank you!

A little piece of paradise in Culebra!
This was our 2nd visit to the island of Culebra, and our first time renting this home. We absolutely loved It! The host was responsive, helpful, and attentive. The home is situated on the top of a mountain with a gorgeous view of the island. You definitely need a Jeep to get up to the property. The home was very clean, organized, and seems the owners have thought of everything! The outdoor shower was a big plus, along with the propane grill. The property is kept in wonderful shape - you can tell the home has been loved. We would stay here again in a second! Enjoy the beautiful island of Culebra!

Happy repeat customers!
This is our second time staying at Alissa and Jeff's house at Alturas. It is a great location - very private, but not far from town - high on a hill so you always get nice breezes. Never need to use air conditioning, at least in January. The master bedroom is so spacious and all the bathrooms have just been remodeled - nice tiling! This would be a wonderful house for a family, but it was just me and my husband. Evenings we enjoyed sitting on the decks with drinks/snacks - fantastic ocean view. The kitchen has everything you might need. We had all our breakfasts here and made our lunches to bring with us to the beach. The beach chairs were perfect and easy to carry - very comfortable. Most evenings we went to the local restaurants - Dinghy Dock, Susie's (need reservations), Zaco's Tacos! There was construction on the bridge the first 2 days we were on the island. Luckily, we had 2 really nice beaches on our side of the bridge, so no issues. We would definitely come here again, and hope we can again next year!

Believe the hype!
I cannot give enough positive feedback on this property and on our overall experience to do it justice. This was our fourth trip to Culebra and by far the best place we have stayed--in the past we have stayed in a variety of places, but none came close to Alissa and Jeff's gem of a home. The location is perfect--perched high on a hill that provides gorgeous water views and an easy drive to town and all the beaches. It's true that you do need to rent a Jeep or other 4 wheel drive vehicle to access this house, but personally I think it's important to do that regardless of where you stay on the island if you want easy access to Zoni and other sites accessible via rough roads. Plus, tooling around in a Jeep is super fun on Culebra! Check in and check out were both a breeze. Before we even left NYC, we communicated several times with Alissa and Jeff and they were extremely responsive and helpful. We also connected with Jessie (their housekeeper) before we arrived and she offered to meet us in the morning, which was so helpful and appreciated. Jessie met us at our Jeep rental place and we followed her to the house so that she could show us around. The house was spotless and had everything we needed and more, including beach chairs (upon discovering 2 were broken, we texted Jessie and she replaced them with brand new ones within the hour!), beach towels, sand toys, coolers, and a fully stocked kitchen. We ended up grilling at home 4 out of the 5 nights and preferred that to going out. The upper deck was perfect for enjoying happy hour as the sun set, and we didn't have to wait in line at a restaurant or deal with parking in town. In the mornings we loved having coffee on the lower deck. We read through the guest book and the very detailed house information book and that led us to several places we hadn't tried before for snorkeling and hiking. We traveled with our 10-year-old son, one other couple and their 11-year-old son. The house was very spacious and comfortable for all of us. The kids shared the casita and loved having their "own little house" complete with a television and bathroom. It's true what the other reviewers have said about the wonderful breezes--we never turned on the A/C in the main house, though we did use it at night in the casita. Don't hesitate to book this house for your next trip! Liz, Brian, Jackson, Sara, Tim, and Zach Brooklyn, New York

we have stayed at many VRBO properties over the years but this one was the best as far as being stocked with everything you would need for a fabulous time! Jeff & Alissa have a very welcoming home here with a well stocked kitchen, very comfortable furniture, and beach chairs, snorkle equipment, coolers, etc. for the beach which is why we were in Culebra, to enjoy the beautiful beaches there. Jeff & Alissa helped us secure a rental vehicle and contacted us before our stay with useful information and during our stay to make sure all was well. The owners are 5 star people as well as the property!!!

Beautiful Views!
The views from the house are absolutely beautiful. The bottom and top decks are wonderful both at sunrise and sunset. The house is nicely appointed with plenty of room in the living room for the 5 of us. The beds are comfortable. The drive to town and most beaches is 10minutes or less. It is true without a doubt that a 4x4 is needed to get to the house. We saw Anole and deer eating in the yard. No crazy things like snakes or scorpions. This is something specific to the COVID-era. We were there a Sunday to Friday. >90% of the restaurants were closed to dine-in eating (take out only). Towards the end of the week, a couple places had opened up to in-person dining. We ended up doing a lot of cooking for this reason. The stove and grill worked well. There were spices and basic condiments available from previous guests. You could tell the house is closed up a lot. It does have a slight musty odor that may bother someone with mold allergies. This just comes with a tropical, wet environment. The owners had scent absorbing bags in every room. There is air conditioning in the bedrooms which works great but none in the community spaces like the kitchen or TV/living room. If you have young children you are not likely going to want to put them in the bedroom with the two double beds since it has no entrance to the house (casita). My 12yo would not stay out there. There are several small grocery stores on the island. Do not expect many choices. The prices are decent. Just be aware that they take COVID VERY seriously. I am triple vaccinated and still felt ill prepared. Aside from the beaches, the Culebra residents expected a mask on both inside and out (even on sidewalks). Be prepared to wash your hands/gel immediately in any establishment to avoid being confronted. The owners were very responsive. Jessie showed us around well. She even picked up a few groceries for us on arrival since the stores would be closed when we arrived. They were very easy to deal with.

Amazing views! And yes, you really do need a jeep
The house was great! It’s up the hills and you really do need 4 wheel drive to get up to the house. Jessie greeted us at the Jeep rental and we followed her to the home. She went over the house procedures and gave some directions as to how to get into town and where to buy groceries. The house has everything you need, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, q tips, blow dryer, and toilet paper. There is leftover sunscreen and bug spray from previous renters as well. We didn’t do any cooking but the kitchen did look well stocked. The views are just as pictured if not better. The rooms are just as they appear in the photos. We would stay here again if we visited Culebra again. As a note to future renters, we did book a water taxi with Aquatic Adventures and they never showed or answered the phone. We booked 4 scuba dives with Culebra Divers and they were super responsive, prompt, safe, and professional.

From the moment we arrived until our departure, our expectations were met or surpassed by this home and Culebra! The house and the views are even nicer than they appear in the pictures and Jessie makes all the logistics very easy.

Alturas de Culebra
We had a wonderful vacation at Alturas de Culebra. Alissa and Jeff’s house is absolutely beautiful! On top of the hill, it’s very breezy, so we didn’t have to use the AC at all. The view is absolutely breathtaking, the house spotless and cared for lovingly and very nicely decorated . The kitchen has everything you need to cook gourmet meals, not only pots and pans but also all the spices you can imagine. Both Jeff and Alissa were very prompt in answering all the questions and made the booking process very easy. Jessie was very nice and waited for us patiently at the boat dock and offered to drive us the next day to the car rental place. The information book at the house was very detailed and helpful not only for learning about the house rules but also about the beaches and island life. Once you get used to the steep road leading to the house, you really can’t ask for a nicer place to spend a fabulous vacation! Thank you, Alissa and Jeff for sharing your wonderful house with us!
