Isla Verde lies approximately 3.5 miles east from the Condado neighborhood, bounds on the north with the Atlantic Ocean, south with the Luis Muñoz Marin (SJU) International Airport and east with the Isla Verde public beach. It is an enchanting residential area mainly for its location just bordering the ocean along this magical beach area.
In the 1950’s, with the increase in touristic activities, and the development of high-density residential buildings under the condominium form of ownership, Isla Verde became an ideal location for that type of developments.
Therefore, a combination of homes and condominium buildings with spectacular ocean views have been developed within this neighborhood. To serve the needs of the residential and touristic communities all types of commercial facilities have also been developed.
Due to its closeness to the airport, a range of hotels and casinos are available and given its exceptional location facing the ocean a variety of water sports are practiced. Excellent restaurants, and shops are also available within this locality.
