DO NOT STAY HERE!!! DIRTY, UNPROFESSIONAL, DARK, NO WIFI…read more We were only here for one night and encountered an OBSCENE amount of issues. The main ones including lack of cleanliness, an infestation of insects (spiders, at least 40 mosquitos in our unit, termites, a cockroach, and tons of dead millipedes in this tiny place), URINE in the toilet when we arrived, a very unpleasant, stifling smell of bleach, completely unreliable WiFi, and the bedding and pillowcases did not appear clean. It was also MUCH smaller than the pictures in the listing. We slept on top of some clothing we brought and the dirty (but cleaner than the sheets) towels from the bathroom for two hours before waking up at 5 am to leave. It was not the trip we'd hoped for at all. We really wanted to work this out with the host, Samantha and not involve Airbnb or publicly express our experience, but we've been left with no choice. We wrote Samantha on Airbnb the night we encountered the issues and the next day (day we left). No response. We called Tradewinds (the B&B this is in) six times over that next week to rectify the situation, but Samantha never returned our calls. We emailed her after a week of no responses with all the photos we'd originally sent and a request for a conversation. She finally responded and told us to write this all in the Airbnb chat. We did. She never replied and denied our refund request. She wouldn't offer us anything and ignored us completely. Our stay itself was worth one star, but we didn't expect this customer service to be so disheartening. We've never had a stay or experience like this and have stayed in $10 hostels that were cleaner and nicer and we paid $200 for this! As a business owner/host, I would never let my guests get to this point - let alone have the experience they had. We are extremely disappointed in every bit of this experience. There are much cuter, cleaner and kinder places to stay in Vieques.

The owners are wonderful! Prior to arrival, I called The Vieques Guesthouse to confirm our reservations. I spoke to Amanda who is the owner. She helped me find my confirmation in my spam. Also, I got a text confirmation too. So easy! Upon arrival, we were greeted by Amanda. She went over all the logistics with us and we were off to our room. I loved the starfish theme in our room. From the colors to the pillows, it was so cute. Our bed was comfortable and clean. There is soap, shampoo, conditioner, a microwave, refrigerator, safe, and hair dryer too. In the morning, there is complimentary coffee and tea. You can purchase breakfast and snacks too. Amanda was so friendly and helped us navigate the island.

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!

Work hard, Play hard! I had a wonderful stay at Bravo Beach Hotel in Vieques, PR! From the moment I…read morearrived, the front desk staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, making check-in a breeze and offering great local recommendations. The property is maintained very well and offers a peaceful, laid-back atmosphere that makes it easy to unwind. My room was clean and came with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The hotel is right on the beach, and the minimal noise made it easy to relax and enjoy the soothing sound of the ocean waves right from my room. Waking up to that view and sound each morning is an amazing thing. Watching the sunsetting in the evening was perfect. If you're looking for a quiet, clean, and welcoming place to stay in Vieques, Bravo Beach Hotel is a fantastic choice.

When I arrived I was checked in and given a tour of the attractive property by the staff member on duty. My room was spacious and comfortable along with the bathroom that had a shower in it. The ac worked well too. The TV was a smaller screen that I think was less than 32" and was mounted high up on the wall so TV watching could be better. The room had a small refrigerator in it. Shortly after checking in I received a series of text messages from the owner regarding information about Isabel II such as restaurants nearby, grocery stores, taxi info, tour companies, etc, which was helpful. Bravo Beach is well maintained with 2 freshwater pools and less than 20 rooms all with outdoor facing entrances. It is located directly on the water with a beach but swimming is not allowed or desired from the shell beach however the beach is available for walking. The hotel does offer the free use of beach supplies like coolers and folding chairs, etc. if you need them. They do have their own small parking lot and more parking next to the hotel but I'm not sure they have enough parking if all of their rooms are full. The hotel is located about a 6-7 minute walk from the ferry terminal. If I returned to Vieques I would be happy to stay at Bravo Beach Hotel again.

Swinging in a hammock, listening to the coquis, and looking up at the moon through palm trees full of coconuts..... Rooms were simple but more than enough. Clean and nice. The property really makes you feel like you're out in the jungle... away from civilization and yet still completely safe (a rarity on the island). Short drive to Fajardo, El Yunque, or the Luquillo kiosks. Breakfast is simple and serviceable, but the real draw here is the laid back atmosphere and beautiful grounds. The owner is quick to shake your hand and welcome you to his little slice of paradise. Highly recommended.

I visited back in 2012 or 2013 I believe. It was so amazing and comfortable. We regretted having rented a beach house in Arecibo after having the first night here.

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.

But regardless they offered to help arrange a taxi from the airport which was so nice, and then watched over our luggage while we explored the island until checkin (4pm). I have to highlight, when they say "unplugged" it means it - there is no tv in the room, wifi/cell is spotty and temperamental outlets, apparently common to the island, little nuances we hadn't expected, but dealt with. Our king room with lanai ocean views was exactly that! Once we got used to being "unplugged" we throughly enjoyed our stay. The brunch and dinner restaurant are very convenient. The bar is highly recommended/known by locals, as is the resort. A fabulous pool and beach access - the facility provided beach towels and chairs you can carry to the beach. After a long day exploring we'd either shut the curtains and cool off or sit on the lanai enjoying the views, warm breeze and watching the wild horses. The property is just absolutely beautiful and the staff so very nice.

The pool is accessible 24/7 which great too as most hotels close the pools at 10 pm. I also love the fact that there aren't any children taking over the pool as it's an adult only hotel. The guest services were polite and helpful. Couple downsides was we're having issues with the WiFi. And I also didn't like that there was no bathroom door. Unfortunately when we went there was a ton of seaweed on the black sand beach so it didn't look to nice but again that's not something they can control. But other than that. The food is good the bar service is nice but they do close at 9. And everything else about the experience was great!

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!
