You can use GPS by typing Apartmentos Bello Mar, Calle 1, Playa Fortuna, Luquillo. If you're having any difficulties with that, there are step by step directions for getting to our place provided below. Assuming your GPS will work, I'll first post the access instructions for once you arrive first.

ACCESS INSTRUCTIONS

• Just to the left of the gate, you will see lockboxes mounted onto a recessed area of the concrete fence. Find the lockbox numbered 205. Use the flashlight on your phone if you need extra light. The combination is 25698. Once you press these numbers, turn the knob at the top to the right to open the box. Inside you will find the gate opener and the building key. Proceed through the gate to the parking space for unit 205 (next to the last one on the far right).

• Enter through the center of the building and as you reach the ocean side, turn to the left. Use the key from the mailbox to enter the first building entrance on the left.

• Proceed to the second floor. As you reach the landing, the apartment is on the right, #205. You will be given a 4-digit access code to unlock the electronic lock mounted on our door. Once inside, you can hang the keys on the hook in the laundry room. There is a second building key along with a key to the pedestrian gate, so you will have two ways to access the property and building.

• When you check out, leave the extra keys inside the condo. Since you will need the gate opener to leave, please take it with you and lock it back in the lockbox for 205. Again the code is 25698. Turn the knob to the left once the opener and building key are hung on the hook inside to secure the lockbox.

P.S. Feel free to lock keys in the outside lockbox when you are headed to the beach so you don't have to take them with you!

ENJOY!

DIRECTIONS FROM THE AIRPORT TO BELLO MAR (in the event your GPS fails you)

• As you leave the airport (or car rental agency) take the A-26 E ramp toward Fajardo/Carolina

• After about 5 miles, stay to the left to exit on A-66 E toward Fajardo.

• After being on 66 for about 3 miles, you will see a toll booth. You will want to set up with your rental car agency to use their toll booth pass because there are two tolls on this road—one where you see the booth and a second one where there is no booth but your license plate is photographed. When you have the pass, you can go through any of the “paid” lanes as you approach toll booths on the island.

• After another 7 or so miles, 66 will dead end into PR-3. Take a right (east) toward Fajardo, Rio Grande/Luquillo

• Travel about 6 miles on PR-3 E watching for the following markers:

o Around the first mile, you’ll see the turn off to the Gran Melia/Coco Beach Resort (good to remember if you opt for golfing, going to the spa or dining at this 5-star resort!) You will also begin to see kilometer markings in the center median. These will be important to follow.

o Around mile 5, you’ll see the turnoff to Rio Mar (on the left) and El Yunque (on the right) – also important sites for later in your stay.

• After the Rio Mar turnoff, start watching the kilometer signs in the center median very closely. Make sure you are in the left lane by the 33km marker. Take the first left after the 33.3 km sign (the turn is exactly at 33.4 km).

• Follow the road to the left until it dead ends into Calle 1.Turn left and follow the road approximately ¼ mile. The neighborhood is an old fishing village—streets are narrow and families have lived there for decades. The neighbors are all friendly and often hang out in the street. Don’t worry, they don’t speak much English but they are all very nice. Bello Mar is a blue and grey gated complex on the right and there is a sign that reads Bello Mar on the center of the building . Pull over at the gate to retrieve the gate opener and keys.
