Item Description

Spend 7 nights for up to 6 people in this beautiful 3 bedroom/2 bath condo with an unobstructed Pacific Ocean view; located in Vina Del Mar, Chile. Please click here for more info.

Breathtaking, unobstructed, CLOSE (80FT) view to the Pacific Ocean and nearby beach. You can hear the ocean roar at night. No roof tops to look at. On a 7th floor. Brand new building - January 2009, efficient floor plan. Quality materials and furnishings including fine painting collection of local artists. Perfect NE sun orientation, warm in winter, cool in summer.

Located in Recreo which is a safe and picturesque hilly residential neighborhood close enough to larger shopping areas and 2 blocks from small grocery shops and services. Not crowded like Viña central's district by the Marina Arauco Mall where traffic could be horrid. You could take a 15 minute walk to street Valparaíso where you'll find plenty shopping, coffee shops, parks and plazas. Use their "colectivos' which are shared taxi cabs, really cheap transportation. The property is located in between two Metro stations you can walk to, and visit Valparaiso or go to the interior. There are 20 Metro stations from "Estación Puerto" to Estación Limache", about 30 miles ride. Come ready to walk and use your rented car to travel outside the area. Street parking is expensive and not too available. The swimming beach of Caleta Abarca is also really close, 5-10 minute walk. You can take a bike ride down the hill connecting with a paved ocean side bike trail coming from Valparaiso all the way to Vina del Mar.

The apartment has all new furniture including fine leather couches and various native wood items. All quality furniture carefully selected. All bedding is new and of the highest quality. You will love the queen size European technology mattress. Very ergonomic kitchen with all new quality appliances . Also a Reverse Osmosis Water System - SAFE DRINKING WATER!!!LG Washer/Dryer (one unit) plus additional laundry area, on level -1, with industrial capacity washer and dryer, but this LG unit does a great job for everyday laundry. Also 32" HD Plasma TV and BlueRay HD DVD on master bedroom and a 26" Plasma and DVD on 2nd bedroom. Large community room connected to a patio and Summer Pool, plus Sauna and Gym. Great snow skiing is not far during the summer months.

Only for visitors originating travel  from USA or Canada. A refundable security/damage deposit of $500 is required and visitors should sign a rental agreement before their stay. Property is available from March 1, 2011 - August 31, 2011. Please make reservations at least one month in advance.
