Isla Verde beach questions

[Sunchaser46]

We will be in San Juan for the first time this March. Looking like Isla Verde is a nice option for a beach visit? Does anyone have any recent experience with this beach? Cab/Uber prices? Chair and umbrella rental locations and prices? Any information is appreciated!

Looking for this info also… anyone have any insight?

Cab for 2 with bags from the airport to Embassy Suites was $18 plus tip.

 

If you walk straight towards the beach from ES you'll run right into a road you can drive and get right next to the beach.  On Isla Verde Blvd (it parallels the beach) or whatever they call it there are 10' wide walkways every block or so that lead to the beach from Avenida Isla Verde.  Across from Pizza City, Taco Bell, and Burger King.  Lots of bed rentals on a Saturday but they were packing them all up and didn't ask the cost.  I'm guessing $10 or less for one lounger.  With Carlisle Bay being a 10 for sand, Isla Verde would be a 7 or 8.

How did you like the Embassy Suites. We are looking at staying there.

Embassy Suites was nice even though we were only there for a few hours.  We've stayed there a couple of times.  One thing is that it never seems to get any cheaper...
