East from Condado along the coast, a couple of other beachfront neighbourhoods attract their fair share of visitors. When Avenida Ashford becomes Calle McLeary, you'll find yourself in Ocean Park , an affluent residential district on a wide swath of pretty, palm-lined sand. Thanks to a city code barring the construction of buildings taller than three storeys, it is more intimate than Condado, and while there isn't much of interest here for the sightseer, there are several lovely inns and guesthouses and a handful of good restaurants. The next major beachfront area, further east and just before the airport, is ISLA VERDE . This is the place to base yourself if you want ultra-cheap digs and don't mind strip malls, or if you opt for luxury accommodations of the all-inclusive sort that give you no need to leave the premises. Like all the waterfronts in San Juan, the beach is good for sunbathing and swimming, though its location - two blocks from the freeway (Rte 26) and its service roads - leaves something to be desired.
