Trust & Safety

Otium Trust Guarantee

Trust and safety are important in many different contexts, especially when traveling. Both are the first things that come to mind when you spend your time and money staying in a short-term rental that you have never visited.

At Otium, we pride ourselves on providing excellent and safe guest experiences. We want to ensure all our guests enjoy a great Puerto Rico vacation. To date, more than 3,000 guests have trusted us by booking directly.

While many guests still book vacation rental stays with online travel agencies such as Airbnb and Vrbo, booking directly remains the safest way to ensure a quality vacation rental experience.

Guests have lost billions to private accommodation scams. That is because listing a fake property on many third-party online travel websites is extremely easy. Even well-known online travel agencies such as Airbnb are vulnerable to such scams. There is no guarantee of 100% protection when booking through a third-party website.

When you book directly with Otium Rentals, you are guaranteed to enjoy a seamless experience with high-quality amenities in your chosen property. We include additional book direct privileges such as complimentary late checkout, insider travel tips, and advance discounts. You also get the Best Price Guarantee.

Our goal is to provide security and confidence when staying or working with Otium Rentals – in all situations and environments.

  • We ensure that our properties are safe for guests to stay in through regular inspections and preventive maintenance.
  • We have policies and procedures to protect guests’ privacy and security.
  • Our vacation rentals have outside-only security cameras and noise monitoring devices designed to alert us about unauthorized events & parties.
  • We provide clear and detailed instructions for guests on how to reach our vacation rentals and how to access the property, including any security codes or keyless entry systems.
  • Our Guidebooks provide clear and detailed information about the property and its amenities, as well as having a system in place for our staff to address any questions or concerns our guests may have.
  • We have plans and procedures in place for handling emergencies or unexpected issues that may arise during a guest’s stay.
  • We provide our guests with clear information on contacting us via multiple channels (Twitter help, website chat, email, phone, messenger).
  • We believe in providing a safe and supportive space for diversity, equity, and inclusion among our staff, guests and owners.

The apartment has a beautiful view to the sea from the bedroom and the apartment counts with a small fridge, microwave, pots, dish detergent, sponge, and a variety of items to visit the beach nearby. When I encountered a problem, I contacted Otium, via whatsspp, and they send team members to solve the problem as soon as possible. The laundry room is free of charge and is available 24 hours. The apartment is located in a prime area surrendered by multiple restaurants, in the San Juan area and Carolina area.The supermarket is within a walk distance.

Great location close to everything.

It was a great location! You can walk to the beach and a great breakfast place called, Superfoods. The apartment was clean, but we did have issues with not having water the 2nd day.We were told it was city wide. Pool needed to be cleaned and people were drying their clothes on the fence right by the front door.

If you want to be right in the middle of everything in Condado, this location is perfect.

If you want to be right in the middle of everything in Condado, this location is perfect. The apartment itself, however, is very quiet and you cannot hear the street noise. Plenty of room for a group of two, and the apartment is very clean and well stocked. The Otium team is very responsive and helpful. Two things to note: this listing does NOT include parking on the premises as it suggests. There is street parking in Condado which is nearly impossible to find, especially in that location. The wifi is not workable for working from home or video calls, only light phone browsing. For a vacation without a car and no work, I highly recommend this place :)

Great stay, amazing view.

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay here, It felt like our home away from home! Everything was clean and the neighborhood felt extremely safe. The area is great. Just a 5 minute walk away from the beach, the pool was a bonus for the days that you didn’t want to get sandy but still cool off, a big supermarket just a little less than a 10 min walk. They had parking spot for the car we rented. Overall I can’t wait to come back to PR and come back to this place!! 10/10

Great AirBnB!

Great AirBnB! Very close to all of the PR must-sees. It was clean and an overall wonderful stay. Just be mindful of the stairs, but it was fantastic being able to stay here during our visit. Also a huge plus, our hosts were so communicative and responsive. They truly made us feel at home.

The apartment was perfect for a little stay.

The apartment was perfect for a little stay. The location being a perfect spot to get to events/restaurants as well! Everything was walkable and the apartment itself did it’s job well. If anything only small hiccups here and there but all in all a great location to stay at.

We were four girls staying at Otium. The place looks exactly like pictures. Otium is a great host, they are quick at response and garnered our needs on requests. The place is on level 4 so it’s big of stair climbing. The apartment is spacious with 2 rooms with queen bed each and one bathroom. Bathroom is a bit small. The living room was cutely decorated. We love the fact they have 2 patios at front and back of the apartment. We used their late checkout and birthday balloon add-ons. They delivered all the services on time. The neighborhood is very safe. The closest beach is just 15-17 min walk. Overall we had a great stay.

Otium was very hospitable, proactive, and polite.

Otium was very hospitable, proactive, and polite. All in all the place was as described. We were thoroughly pleased with how clean the place was which was a delightful welcome. Parking is a bit tough, and the stairs leading up to the dwelling are a bit steep, makes it tough on luggage. I annoyed my time here. We would have been here longer however our unit encounter a waterline issue that prevented us from having running water for a few days. When I contacted Otium of the situation they were very prompt and I received a call less than 5 minutes after I reached out, and within 10-15 minutes I had received fresh bottled water via y we eats! Thanks again otium!

Great location, very spacious and comfortable for five of us.

Excellent location and host! Close to tons of restaurants, bars, activities (e.g. night kayaking tours) and beaches (some with waves and some without). The Airbnb itself was very spacious and had amazing views of the ocean. All of the amenities really made sure we felt comfortable and at home. The location is only a 7-10 min Uber ride from San Juan and 10-15 min ride from the SJU airport. Ubers were very reasonably priced. Looking forward to coming back again! Que viva Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 !
