Upon check-in, we encountered several pre-existing issues requiring attention that, unfortunately, were not communicated to us beforehand. Prior knowledge of these matters would have empowered us to make more informed decisions about our stay and potentially cancel our reservation. The identified problems ranged from three non-functional light switches in the main hallway and bathroom, a broken soap tray in the master shower, the presence of ants in the bathrooms, the unavailability of bedroom keys for the kids' room (resulting in an incident where the kids accidentally locked themselves inside overnight), a temporarily installed cosmetic towel rod under the double vanity (which fell when we removed a towel), and an unsafe sliding bathroom door lacking a lower track or a fixed handle. Instead, the door relied solely on a suction cup door handle that fell several times due to humidity or regular use. Given the challenges we faced, we kindly requested the hosts to consider refunding one day (with full transparency; unrelatedly, a month in advance we decided to leave a day early, making it a neutral proposition). Despite these issues, it's important to note that we appreciated the location and the remainder of the house and genuinely enjoyed meeting the host, Chip. Before posting this review, we attempted to address these concerns via email with Angie and Chip in a non-public forum. We acknowledge the possibility that the hosts may not have seen the email.

We really liked this property. It was nicely appointed and air worked great. Good location too. You can walk to the Melacon easily. Grocery store down the street. We really enjoyed Manuel the caretaker and his dog Nico across the street. Everyone enjoyed sitting on the balcony in the deck chairs. We always felt safe. The only down side was that the washing machine was not working and no 'hot' water in shared bath (my wife and I still showered there as the water was luke-warm). The owners are refurbishing the shared bath and it is not quiet finished. Once completed a new washer and dryer will be available upstairs instead of in the back of the garage. Owner was on-site waiting for us to leave.

Everything was as described in the listing. Our favorites were the front porch and the outdoor shower. There was always a nice breeze on the front porch, so it was a nice place to cool down with a drink in hand. The outdoor shower was perfect after a long day at the beach too!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at this delightful vacation rental in Esperanza, and it exceeded all our expectations. The property is a short walk from the main strip, offering the perfect blend of convenience and seclusion. The apartment was incredibly clean and well-equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay, including a fully stocked kitchen, beach gear, and even some emergency LED lights in case of power outages. We spent many evenings on the front deck, sipping cocktails and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. The gated driveway provided a secure parking spot for our rental car, and the outdoor shower was perfect for rinsing off after a day at the beach. The property managers, Chip, Angie, and Miguel, were all incredibly helpful and accommodating. They went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic stay, offering local tips and checking in with us regularly. The neighborhood was friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We cannot recommend this rental highly enough. It was the ideal spot for our vacation, and we look forward to returning to this piece of paradise in the future

We had such a wonderful time. The home ‘s location was ideal because everything is within walking distance. The manager is so kind and courteous. The owners are incredibly responsive and made us feel right at home. I would highly recommend this home and sincerely hope to return to it in the future. Thank you!!

great stay. coinvent, recommend!

The house is in a great location on the island, easy walk right to the beach, and grocery store just around the corner. It had everything you could need for your stay, was well stocked and clean. We loved it!

Excellent location. Sparklingly clean. Every detail was covered. Kitchen equipped with everything you could ever want. Outdoor shower and grill outside near the covered patio were so fun. Communication was excellent. Simply perfect in every way.

Went on vacation with one of our daughters and her fiance. Looking for space to spread out, cook if we wanted to and just be a 'home base' for when we were gone all day. Great location for what we were interested in; beaches / snorkeling and night life. Walking distance to several areas we wanted to be. All rooms are large and had more than one what we needed. Kitchen appliances and items for every possible need, beach towels, snorkeling equipment, fans, air conditioning, extra shampoo, etc. Very comfortable! Thank you Angie! (and Chip).

The house was a great launching point to everything Vieques has to offer. We rented a golf cart and visited a different beach every day and we loved how different each one was. The tour of the bio bay was the highlight of the trip!! The house had everything we needed to cook a few meals, and was walking distance to a small grocery store, several nice restaurants and the beach. The neighborhood was nice and all of the neighbors seemed friendly. I’d recommend this place highly!

House was well stocked. Even had reusable grocery bags to minimize plastic bags and trash, which also was helpful to tote the scuba equipment in. Very easy walk to grocery store, and restaurants. The beds were not as comfortable as I would prefer, but the A/C worked very well and the rooms were not hot. We enjoyed our stay and would book again.

My family (spouse + 4 kids) stayed here for three nights in June 2022. We LOVED our time in the home and in Vieques. It was so great being greeted by their property manager, Miguel. You won't find a more friendly and helpful guy. I'd see him daily (he lives across the street) and he and his family would always warmly greet us. You immediately feel like you are part of the neighborhood. The owners have set this house up with everything you'll need for a fun stay. We really appreciated having access to the snorkel equipment, beach chairs, and coolers! Having these items saved us money and helped us make the most of our daily excursions to the amazing beaches that the nearby wildlife refuge has to offer. The owners also sent helpful suggestions before our trip and were quick to respond to questions during our stay. There is a small grocery store just around the corner from this property ("Comado Lydia") that had everything we needed to prepare meals and to fill our cooler for lunches on the beach. There are reusable grocery bags in the home that are handy for carrying your purchases back to the house. Side note: Comado Lydia closes at 6pm (as of this writing). If you need to do your shopping a little later you can head to Tienda Verde (Green Market) that is a little further away but stays open until 9pm. Just 2-3 blocks away (and on your way to El Malecon) there is a lady who sells "limbers" from her home for $1.50 each. You'll see her sign in front. We loved stopping by there each day for an inexpensive treat. (Limbers are frozen fruit juice, sugar, and chunks of fruit. I highly recommend the pineapple limber.) Finally, you may have already discovered this but Esperanza is a great home base for your Vieques adventures because of the nearby beaches and because the Malecon is a starting point for many different tours.

The location is excellent to walk to market, The Malecon and has water views. The home was outfitted with everything you can possibly need for a short or long term stay and is super cozy and comfy. We cooked most meals as the kitchen had everything and more that we needed to feel at home. The owners were exceptional in timeless and good communication. Look no further for a place to stay if your planning an amazing vacation in Vieques!

Sleeping soundly every night and staying well-fed thanks to grocery just steps away and yummy restaurants within a 10-min walk, we had plenty of energy to explore Vieques -- scuba diving, biobay, learning how to spearfish, jump off the cliff in Navio, and spend hours jumping and snorkeling off Sugar pier right in Esperanza.

The kitchen had everything you can think of, there were spices, sugar and coffee too! The air conditioners and fans made sleeping super comfortable. Finally, the property manager Miguel was extremely helpful and very kind. Can not wait to visit again real soon :)

Very clean and organized. Great location. Communication great as well. Niko, Miguels' dog, is the street neighborhood watch dog I believe. ❤️

This is a great place to stay in Esperanza. Walk down to the Malecon and beach. The house has everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Owners are very responsive.

The property was in a great neighborhood. Enjoyed the roosters every morning. We stayed upstairs and the deck was a great place to relax and read. The property had everything imaginable that one would need. Kitchen fully stocked with dishes, pots and pans, etc. Really appreciated the beach chairs and coolers. The property is a little dated but met our needs very nicely. Would definitely stay here again.

First time to Vieques and we were so happy with Chip and Angie’s home! The location was wonderful, the house has everything, and the neighborhood is great to sit on the porch or enjoy an evening walk. The storage closet is full of wonderful beach chairs, hammock, snorkel items, coolers. It makes daily outings a breeze. We enjoyed the outdoor shower and playing outback looking for lizards and hermit crabs. Even though we had a car we walked to the Malecon several times during the week- so close! We cooked many meals and the kitchen was perfectly stocked. The bluetooth speaker was great for music and our daughter loved the sound machine provided in the bedroom. We didn’t need Air Conditioning but it’s there if you do which is also great! Chip and Angie were quick and thorough with communication. Can’t wait to visit again. Thanks guys!!

Everything we needed, check in was a breeze and great communication with the owner. There was a person across the street who checked us in, his English was not very good but he showed us everything we needed and was very friendly. Nice kitchen and dining table for making meals and groceries were right around the corner. We rented a jeep and visited every beach we could, nice beach chairs/coolers and equipment available for use in the carport storage area. Many horses, chickens and dogs in the neighborhood, always gave us something to smile about. Only downside was construction happening in the two house on each side of us, made it a bit noisy but it didn’t bother us much as we were usually out exploring the island.

Overall we had a great experience renting this property. We mostly enjoyed the front porch, the short walk to the malecon, and the friendly neighbors.

The owners totally accommodated us to prepare for a wedding. A neighbor immediately met us and explained the space. The rooms are so sweetly decorated in beach. The bedrooms are very comfy and felt like home. Every appliance you could want is in the kitchen along with coffee, sugar, spices. The front porch is amazing, we spent hours there.

The house is perfectly located within walking distance of the main strip of bars and restaurants overlooking the Caribbean Sea. House had all the essentials and more, but there is a convenience store right down the street in case you need anything else. Angie was both gracious and accommodating to any and all things her guests may need and is very informative about the island able to point you in the right direction if you need any help. I had a very lovely stay and would recommend staying here to anyone wanting to visit Vieques.

Miguel was very helpful, we were comfortable, the porch is fantastic.

Great place

We spent 3 days here before the coronavirus regulations made us leave. The home is spacious, peaceful and has a wonderful balcony to relax on. The winds kept it cool so even though there is only one air conditioner in the master bedroom the girls were slept comfortably in the other rooms. The house was well stocked with some grocery essentials, towels and snorkling gear. We were so sad to leave but will definitely return and I will stay here again. The owners and the neighbor who helps with check in were very helpful and responsive.
