Communication was easy. There were some extras -- like a cooler, towels for the beach and hair drier. The place was clean and attractive, but not fancy -- I wasn't worried my kids would break anything! Great place!

We had a great stay in Culebra at Island Charm. The place was clean and spacious with several amenities (makeup remover wipes, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, ironing board, beach chairs, cooler, etc). The view is incredible-right on the water. Plenty of parking up front. The cats around the property were an added bonus! Would recommend!

While there were many fine aspects to this property, next time I would strongly consider other options.
Pros:
* sleeping for four
* view of the bay
* excellent shower
* fairly clean
* cats and two kittens living in front of the unit
* two comfortable beach chairs and a cooler
* a newish building
Cons:
* a very strict check-in policy with no consideration for those who may need to arrive early or leave later because of irradic ferry scheduling (a common occurance). We could not book an afternoon crossing and had to purchase a noon crossing, but were told they would not allow us to drop off our luggage a couple of hours early. Other listings in Culebra said they would store luggage for early or late check outs, so if you are taking a ferry I would highly recommend somewhere else.
* never before have encountered signs in a VRBO such as "For every hour of late check out, $50" and "Housekeeping takes tips" and "Dirty dishes will result in a $50 fee."
* Beware that there is no oven (so we could not cook our frozen pizza). It appeared like we had an oven, but upon inspection we realized the heating elements had been removed and the listing only mentioned a cooktop - our bad for not reading the fine print!
* No dishtowel to dry dishes and no basics such as oil or salt and pepper
* The view includes a building in construction next door, which was not lovely, but the photo conveniently leaves that out.
* While the unit had sleeping for four, it had only two beach towels and two beach chairs (again, in the fine print)
We enjoyed our stay in Culebra and wished we had arranged to stay more than three nights.

Wonderful Vacation, Great Place to Stay
My wife and I stayed at Alfonso's and Heather's Seahorse Suite in Culebra for 3 days. The place was great! Alfonso and Heather were quick to respond and very helpful.
The place was very clean and well kept and the location was a 3 minute golf cart ride from the restaurant/downtown area.
Look forward to staying here in the future.

Spacious Apt with a View!
Alfonso & Heather's apartment was perfect for our visit to Culebra! The property is located 3-5 mins away from the airport. We rented a golf cart for ease of transportation (highly recommended and lots of fun!) The apartment was impeccably clean, very comfortable and well equipped with a full kitchen and beach supplies! (beach towels, 2 chairs and a cooler) We greatly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend Alfonso & Heather's apartment for those considering visiting Culebra!

Aside from a few very minor inconveniences early on, our stay was very good.
Since we did not bring a cell phone, communications was limited to email only.
That lead to our minor issues. I would recommend the Seahorse to future travellers.

Good, but room for improvement.
The shower water pressure, temperature and the soap/shampoo dispenser are great. Could use additional bathroom rugs for the spillover. Should also have more or better quality bath towels. They did not dry from one use to the next.
The beds are comfy, but the pullout queen in the living room is not, unless it is used by kids.
The facility is VERY well kept, feels new and maintained. We would have loved a hammock in our side of the floor.
The staff answered and took care of our requests quite promptly, we did not feel on our own.

We just returned from a short vacation in Culebra and our stay at Seahorse Suite was phenomenal. The apartment is only 5 years old, so it is modern but at the same time cozy. We loved the decor, the kitchen is well equipped, and the air conditioners in the living room and bedroom maintained a comforting temperature so much needed after a day in the sun. The view of the harbor from the living room was so beautiful!! The outdoor shower was a plus. Heather and Alfonso were super friendly and attentive. Alfonso was always checking if we needed anything or providing suggestions for tours and restaurants. They were accessible and responsive at all times. The location is excellent near Flamenco Beach, Zoni Beach, the town, Milka Supermarket (well stocked supermarket) and restaurants. Captain Dave (201-654-5290) provided an excellent tour to Culebrita (the most beautiful beach) at a very reasonable price. For a good breakfast and coffee visit Blac Flamingo. We definitely will stay there again soon!

Beautiful apartment, beautiful view!
Everything is new and lovely at the Seahorse Suite of Island Charm villas! The one-bedroom apartment is quite spacious. The living area couch and chairs are very comfortable. The kitchen has the basic equipment to prepare simple, cooked meals. The air conditioning units in the living area and the bedroom are efficient and cool the rooms quickly. They aren't particularly noisy, either. The beds are very comfortable, and the pillows too. The internet works well, but it is shared by all 3 rental units, so it is somewhat slower during peak use times. We were still able to stream movies using a Firestick connected to the TV, with few interruptions. The outdoor shower worked very well, and is conveniently located just outside of Seahorse Suite. Parking is readily available on the street, in front of the building. Island Charm is well-worth considering for your stay on Culebra!

!LA RECOMIENDO!
La recomiendo! Pasamos 3 días y 3 noches en esta propiedad y fue perfecto! Lugar muy bonito, acogedor y limpio. En la cocina encontramos todos los artículos que necesitamos (excepto esponja de fregar los platos). El propietario se ve que se esmera por ofrecer un lugar perfecto para unas vacaciones agradables. La vista es espectacular (desde el apartamento que está justo frente al mar). La encargada de mantenimiento, estuvo atenta a nuestras necesidades. Queda cerca de las playas ( en carro). Estoy segura de que volveremos a rentarlo!

Great view and clean property.
This is the second time my family have visited Culebra. We stayed beginning on June 13 and leaving the 17th. The property was recently cleaned and have the necessary items to have a reasonable meal. Everything seems fairly new and this is part of the appeal of the property inside. They provide beach towels and there is an outside shower to remove any sand before entering the apartment. It also provide toiletries. It has air conditioner which is a need during summer. The view is fantastic and close to the airport and the town if you do not mind walking. The check-in is very similar to an hotel but without the advantage of storing your luggage if you arrive quite early (this was our case) therefore, you have to carry it during the whole day. The check in is at 3.00pm. The check out was not an issue for us since the plane leaves quite early from Culebra. I recommend fly in and out the island. It is quick and the view from air is fantastic. Our communication with the owners or managers was always via text or email which was enough. The island is easy to explore and since I have been in Culebra several times, It was not difficult for us to navigate and being familiar to the culture here. Unlike other reviews, we never met the property managers or owners therefore I can not comment but again, we did not have many questions or requests. I recommend this property to any of my friends. It is one of the best that I have stayed in Culebra.

This is the second time that we stayed at the Seahorse Suite. The property is very clean and it includes all you need to enjoy a great stay at Culebra. The area is very quiet and it has amazing views of the bay. The manager is great and very accessible. We fully recommend it.

Lovely place!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was nicely decorated, very clean, with all the amenities we needed. Alphonso and Heather were very responsive to our questions and requests. The location is great - not far from town, walking distance to Suzie's Restaurant (wonderful), as well as the great little food truck around the corner. Worked out well for us!

Estadía Perfecta!!!
La localización y condiciones del apartamento espectaculares! La ducha en la parte exterior es muy útil. Las sillas de playa y la neverita en el apartamento son de gran valor ya que evita que tengas que llevar estos artefactos en ferry o avioneta. Son de gran utilidad!!! Muchas gracias Alonso por toda su amabilidad.

A fantastic beach apartment!
This is a wonderful apartment, new, full of amenities and extras. Very clean, neat, and cozy. It has a well equipped kitchen, excellent A/C units and it even includes a medium cooler and 2 beach chairs for our use!. We were able to meet Heather, a charming and enthusiastic person as well as part of her staff (Elia) both willing to help and make your stay the best. I will definitely recommend this property and for sure will be back to Culebra and stay here. Thanks Heather and staff for a great weekend at beautiful Culebra.

Clean and New place to stay
My husband and I loved staying in the Seahorse Suite. It was within walking distance to the Tiki Hut food truck, and Suzie's Restaurant, and only a short 5 minute drive into the heart of town for other bars and restaurants. The beach towels, lawn chairs and cooler made our trips to the beach much nicer. It was also fairly quiet at night, and we were able to sleep without ear plugs (not the case on Vieques). We loved the decor, and the shaded outside space. Also, very handy to have the kitchen for heating up leftovers, or keeping drinks cold. I would stay there again if we return to Culebra.

Beautiful View - Great Place to Stay
This was the perfect place to stay in Calebra. It has a beautiful view and provides all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. Heather and Alfonso were so responsive to our needs and Heather was incredibly helpful with information about getting to the island and places to see on the island. I highly recommend staying here.
