Il Rifugio Nascosto | Somewhere In Heaven

Cozy Old San Juan studio in one of Puerto Rico’s most prime locations, tucked inside a historic building just steps from vibrant plazas, cafés, bars, and the waterfront. Designed as an intimate hideaway, it’s perfect for couples or solo travelers who want peace at night and all the color of the old city right outside the door. Forget the car, you can walk everywhere, from sunrise strolls on the cobblestones to late-night cocktails, ocean breezes, music, and magic in every corner and alleyway too

Nestled in the heart of Old San Juan, just steps from vibrant cafés, colorful colonial facades and the sea-breeze of the bay, this beautifully tucked-away studio invites you to slow down and soak in the island rhythm. Feast your eyes on pastel-hued buildings, cobblestone walkways and walls that have stood for centuries. You’ll be staying in a building rooted in history, deeply woven into the 300-year-old story of this place — so you may notice rustic touches, aged doors, thicker walls and the gentle patina of character; this is not a cookie-cutter high-rise, it’s part of the living heritage of Puerto Rico.

Inside, discover a peaceful retreat that blends modern comfort with historic simplicity. The thick masonry keeps things cool, and the décor is intentionally understated so you can feel the raw authenticity of this old city. After a day exploring legendary landmarks like the fortress gates, plazas and seaside promenades, you’ll return to your private space — a sanctuary where you’re perfectly positioned to walk everywhere. No car is needed: from boutique bars to local restaurants serving mofongo and fresh seafood, from art galleries to the shimmering bay views at sunset — it’s all within a comfortable stroll.

Whether you’re here for a solo escape, romantic getaway or a cultural immersion, you’ll appreciate the quiet elegance and prime location. Imagine sipping your morning coffee on your way out, wandering the historic streets lined with stories, then returning to your retreat for a slow evening, the city lights glowing and the sea breeze whispering through the old windows. Make yourself at home in the heart of Old San Juan — where every brick has a story, every step is discovery, and your stay becomes part of the island’s living past.
