During the day, Mike and/or John are available to troubleshoot anything for you and give wonderful advice on local attractions. I tried some that were not on the list and they are as follows: -Tin Box: If you're craving sushi on the island, this is a great place to check out. -Green beach: Rumored to have conch shells but I guess I wasn't that lucky. We had also gone post light rain, so the long road there was covered in puddles of unknown depths. Would highly recommend a generous application of bug repellent if you go. We were swarmed by a little cloud of gnats and I got little non-itchy polka dots on my arms by the time I was through -Seagate Horseback Riding: Only a good idea if you're intermediate to advance in horseback riding. The horses are not lead or strung together. There were also parts of the ride where the horses seemed to be trained to go a a trot. At these speeds, I almost slid off the horse! Definitely not the romantic walk along the beach on horses that I was envisioning. Hope you enjoy your Vieques stay!

Now be prepared as from 2-3 am the local chickens are quite consistently vocal until a bit after 7. Quite common in the Caribbean but if you aren't prepared it can be an adjustment. There is no food or beverage service here but lots of good food options very close. I highly recommend renting a jeep rather than a golf cart as the terrain is quite hilly and many of the beaches are down unpaved gravel roads. The hotel has a small but quite pleasant pool. You also have to take a ferry from the main island to get here. Plan ahead. The ferry only sells 20% of the tickets ahead of time and only 2-3 weeks in advance. This is the main method of transportation for the majority of the local residents If you make the trip stay at least a couple nights. The beauty and serenity will awe you.

This is truly a gem on the little island of Viequea. Penny the owner and the charm of the property make it 5 Star. The hotel looks like it was built back in the 60 but it has been very well kept and the grounds, amenities and the views make it special. At $120 per night you get a kitchen with a frig, stove and microwave, sitting area with a table to eat and a huge balcony with a table, lounge chairs and a hammock and did I mention the view? Thank you Penny for the hospitality!

My friends and I stayed here for 2 nights and felt really welcomed with the warmth and hospitality…read moreJoe and Maria showed us. The prices/night are very reasonable so I definitely recommend staying here. You won't get the newest amenities or anything like you would at the W hotel nearby, but as long as you don't care about that, you'll be happy here. It's a humble yet clean guesthouse very close to the main Isabel II area on the north side of Vieques. It's walking distance to convenience stores, restaurants, ATMs, car rentals, equipment rentals, and the ferry port! (15 mins) To get to the south side of the island near Esperanza, where there's beautiful beaches like La Chiva (blue beach), Secret Beach, and Sun Bay Beach, you'll need to rent a car or call a taxi that's $5/pp (I recommend 741TAXI). When checking in, they helped us book a glass-bottom biobay tour right away which was important because they get booked quickly! When we went to the beaches, Joe also loaned us beach towels and his beach chairs!! The guesthouse does not provide shampoo and conditioner (take note) and since it was too late to go out to get anymore, Joe went back to his house next door and gave us some in plastic cups! Since rental cars were all sold out, Joe recommended his friend Edgar who might be available to drive us around all day as a personal chauffeur for a fixed (and what I thought, very reasonable) price. We ended up going with him and had the best day ever - hassle free. Coffee is free in the morning and breakfast is additional. They were so incredibly accommodating and helpful during our whole stay, our Vieques visit would not have been the same without them.

The hotel is situated at the end of the busy boardwalk and this end of the street was relatively quiet. The hotel staff was impeccable, full of local recommendations. Breakfast each morning was scrumptious and the coffee was strong and tasty. They provided beach chairs, beach umbrella, coolers and ice, and unlimited beach towels. We didn't get to try the pool, but it looked nice! 4 ft deep all around so good for folks looking to lounge. We stayed in the Deluxe King room (room 6) and the natural light streaming in throughout the day and the ocean views were perfect. If you're planning on spending some time on the balcony of this room, bring your bug spray! Overall, highly recommend. We'd stay here again!

So relaxing Accommodating staff…read moreGood food Private pool I went blind into this bed and breakfast; first time to Puerto Rico. As always, I conducted a bunch of research, some say too much but they always ask me to find things for them... The name for the Hacienda Tamarindo is derived from Tamarindo trees on the property. If you go to Vieques there is a ferry they run all day. Ticket was two dollars. Vieques is a nature preserve so expect to see horses everywhere on the island. Oh yeah, roosters too. You need a rental car on the island. Well, at least I would recommend one and am glad I had one. There is no way to see the beaches without a vehicle. Hacienda Tamarindo will reserve your rental for you if you ask. Be aware that you may not want to arrive on the island before the rental company opens. If I'm ever on Vieques I will stay at the Hacienda Tamarindo.

This was a great place to stay. It's a little older but most the hotels in Vieques are older…read more The room was clean and comfy with great views of the ocean and wild horses. Lots of kind kitties everywhere Hacienda Tamarindo had some great amenities. - the hotel booked our rental car so it was waiting for us when we got to the hotel - you can request they make lunch for you. When we woke up they had it ready to go in a cooler for us - breakfast is included, it not a buffet either, it's a nice sit down breakfast and they serve you - the pool is open 24/7. It has a cute fountain and again great views of the beach - each room comes with a hard side cooler you can take to the beach. - there is an honor bar where you can make your own drinks - you can rent snorkeling gear, beach chairs and umbrellas from them.

A little upset that I tried it on my last visiting day because I should've been eating here everyday from the start! That's how great it is. I believe I ordered the shank! It looked too good to eat haha. Very juicy and tender. The rice and beans had a delicious flavor. The hotel in itself is very unique and remarkable in itself. It truly feels local to the island and its history. The architecture is breathtaking. I specifically enjoyed the rooftop with optional seating and a jacuzzi/pool. I enjoyed that there were too many people in the hotel during my stay which allowed my visit to be more intimate with the locals/area and the intricate designs the hotel offered. It was also a plus that coffee and tea was offered in the morning. I was especially happy with the oat milk option.

We got lucky with a reservation for the Casa La Lanchita- one of the holders of the week we went…read moreunexpectedly couldn't make it and we snatched up the reservation right away. The guest house is located high on top of a hill above Isabel Segunda. Our room overlooked the pool area (it's a pseudo infinity pool) and the beach of the north shore of the island. Its right on the beach, the high tide comes all the way up to the retaining wall. Our room consisted of a living area and dining area, as well as a semi separate sleeping area and a huge bathroom. We also had a kitchen which was very nice because we could stock up at the little grocer and bring our own lunch and snacks to the beach. Doug, the owner, is very very nice (he's originally from Boston!) and he provides coolers, beach chairs, towels, snorkel gear (which we didn't use because we have our own), as well as beach toys and tons of books. Anything and everything you could want for a day at the beach! He was also very very helpful when we were planning our visits and told us what beaches to go to and what time of day. (To avoid sand fleas and things like that) We were able to rent a Jeep directly from Doug which made everything so much easier.

There are fruit trees everywhere and it is also pretty quiet. +Our room was small but had everything you need including a coffee maker and small kitchenette. Even better was the TV which had ESPN and all the US networks allowing me to watch a few football games. Free, fast internet. +Violet and her partner are super super nice. They go out of their way to answer any questions you have about the island and any logistical issues you have. She also goes out of her way to help people when things go very wrong- as she did when a couple arrived at the Inn even though their reservation had been canceled (no one was sure exactly why this happened). Vieques is pretty small and sometimes completely sells out- which is of course happened when this couple arrived. Violet personally kept looking until she found them a place to stay. She really is a class act. A few negatives - The Inn is a bit far out of town making transportation a very important consideration, Cars rent for $100+ (mopeds $55) so we elected for using the Island Taxi service,. Most of the time this worked just fine ($5 pp to most places) but once or twice required a 1 hour + wait and multiple calls to secure a ride. Just something to be aware of. -Not so much a negative about the Inn but rather Vieques itself. Be aware that that Vieques is a pretty pricey place- particularly for meals. Keep this in mind when planning your trip.
