Dos Palmas Vieques Vacation Home-
2nd Floor Unit
All 3 Bedrooms now have A/C available, if needed
3Bdrm/2Ba, Comfy Living Room, Well Equipped Kitchen, Dining Area, Breakfast Bar & stools. Both bathrooms recently remodeled.
Master Bdrm-AC, King w/Private, recently remodeled bathroom,
2nd Bdrm-A/C, Queen

Each bedroom has a ceiling fan and additional floor fans.
Spacious Front Balcony to enjoy the Tropical Breezes.
Wifi and Smart TV, along with a Bluetooth Harmon Kardon speaker system.
Secure parking in the gated carport and driveway.
In the rear of the house, which is a common area, in the backyard is a covered gazebo seating area for relaxing, along with a BBQ grill for grilling your favorites, the local catch of the day, or lobsters from the fish market.
Also in the rear of the house, in a private nook is an Outdoor Shower Area surrounded with lush tropical plantings.

Vacation where there are possibly more free range horses than people.
Do a guided night kayak tour to witness the magical and mysterious greenish blue glow of the Dinoflagellates in Mosquito Bay-the worlds brightest Bioluminescent Bay
Experience beautiful, secluded tropical beaches that you will most likely have all to yourself!

A short 1 Block walk to the Malecon, but far enough away as not to be affected by the sometimes boisterous late nights. A one block easy walk to several beaches. And an easy 2 block walk to restaurants/bars. A very short walk to Lydia's Colmado, (neighborhood market), which is convenient for many small items.
Sit out on the front porch and watch as horses freely roam the neighborhood, looking for the greenest grass to nibble on!

While you don't need a rental vehicle since all of Esperanza and several beaches are within easy walking distance, you may wish to rent one to explore all that Isla Nena has to offer, including the numerous beaches within the Wildlife Refuge.

Dos Palmas is located in a nice residential neighborhood with great neighbors, a mix of local residents and rental properties.

There are dogs, cats, chickens, horses, iguanas, and mongoose that freely roam Vieques, and at times the neighborhood as well. You will undoubtedly see and hear several varieties of Vieques wildlife during your stay. It's totally different than our neighborhood in the states, and that's why we love it as we do.

TRAVELING TO VIEQUES-
Vieques can seem to be a little daunting to get to at first glance, the good news is that once you do arrive you won't want to leave!
There are several options in traveling from SJU to Vieques, and the price for each can vary greatly. When guests book with us we send them an email detailing the options available, along with the most up to date pricing to help them decide which option would work best depending on their budget and travel times.

Thank You for considering our vacation rental home.

Lovely stay so close to Bio Bay
My girlfriends and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Esperanza. It was the perfect location for us as our main interests were bioluminescent bay and getting in some beach time. The grocery store is just around the corner and it is a 2-3 min walk to malecon where local restaurants are. Jak sports is a 10 min walk or 2 min drive and. Caracas and La Chiva beaches were very drivable, maybe 15 min away. The ACs in the bedrooms were fantastic. Great communication and easy checkin were pluses. Thank you!

Good Location in Esperanza and Responsive Hosts
The house is very walkable to restaurants in Esperanza and is modern and clean. We didn't realize that only the bedrooms and not the living area in the house has AC, but this seems very normal for all PR VRBO rentals. (This was our very time in PR.) The check-in process was good - a very friendly neighbor walked us through the house, but he didn't show us the washer/dryer (texted the owner for this information) and the AC units in the bedrooms were a little finicky to get turned on and set to temp - an extra instruction sheet for the AC units would be helpful. Overall, a positive experience with very responsive owners.

Great home in Esperanza!
My family and I loved staying at Dos Palmas! The hosts were very communicative and responsive. They shared information about arriving to their place and about things to do on the island. The house was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen is very well stocked. We especially loved the location: very close to a little grocery store and minutes from the beach and shops and restaurants of Esperanza. Vieques was our favorite part of our time in Puerto Rico, and we would definitely look to stay at Dos Palmas again when we return.

Wonderful property, close to Esperanza main street
We had a wonderful stay at this property. The owners were incredibly helpful and accommodating. Communications were easy. The property had all the amenities we needed. Property is within easy walking distance of the Esperanza main street. We enjoyed watching a festival where locals rode horses down the side streets. Bio Bay is also a must see, we got to enjoy it on the new moon.

Ideal location
Perfect place for our family of 4 (2 adults, 15 & 11 year old). The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed. We loved both the front porch and the back yard. The kids enjoyed the AC at night the grown ups were fine with the fans. We could walk to restaurants and beaches are a very easy drive. Black sand beach is very convenient and not to be missed. Communication was great throughout the process and we appreciated the tips for travel. We hired the recommended driver from San Juan who was great. Check in and leaving were simple and quick. We absolutely loved Vieques and hope to return soon!

Paradise
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!

Great house, great location, great host!
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!

Nice Landing Spot
We truly enjoyed this house. It had everything we needed, the master bed was comfortable, kitchen well stocked, A/C in the rooms. The highlights were the front porch, which we sat on every night and enjoyed the breeze and moonlight, there was a wonderfully stocked market literally right around the corner, and it was just a short walk to the main strip with restaurants and shops. (oh the blender actually worked and produced our daily pina coladas!) There was a small hiccup with our host not being on time to let us in to the house but the owners quickly responded and pointed us in the direction of the lockbox. The host Miguel lives right across the street and was so friendly and made us feel like we were locals with his daily waves and hello's. We will definitely be back!

We had a great time!
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!

Well stocked
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.

Centrally located walking distance to shops and restauranom. Spacious with porch , was a delight
We stayed here four days and nights and it is a beautiful location. Very comfortable house with plenty of provisions. We sat on the porch plus stars and enjoy the evenings. The owners were excellent communicators. The price was great and it was walking distance to numerous restaurants and shops. We did rent a car so we could go to all the beaches that we wanted to all over the island and we could park that in a gatedcarport in front of this house which was very helpful. It has beautiful gardens and an outdoor shower for washing after swimming, and indoor shower of course as well.3 big bedrooms, 1 with an onsite bath in addition to the big bathroom and shower we shared. Large dining room table and kitchen. Overall, I highly recommend this vrbo and would rent it again if I was coming back to Vieques!

Very nice home in an amazing location.
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.

Vieques Get Away
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.

A Tranquil Oasis in Esperanza
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

Perfect location and home
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!!

Excellent Place to Stay!
We can't say enough good things about our stay at Dos Palmas in Esperanza, Vieques. We were 3 couples traveling together and the house was perfect for us. Chip and Angie couldn't have been more helpful with all of our questions before we left. The house had everything that you could need. There were beach towels and chairs, coolers, beach bags, etc. The kitchen, dining room and living room were open and easily accommodated all of us. We really enjoyed the big front porch where we had coffee in the mornings and cocktails at night and could watch the wild horses and chickens walk by. The laundry facilities were great, it allowed us to pack lighter. The location couldn't be better. We used the market and bakery around the corner everyday. We were a very short distance to the Malecon where we could walk to the restaurants, bars and shops. Suca was very helpful letting us in when we arrived. We were 4 hours early and she left work to bring the keys to us and show us around. We can't say enough good things about our first time using VRBO at Dos Palmas. We would recommend this place to everyone and can't wait to return! (We also enjoyed the visits from the neighbor's dog, Nico. He made us feel very welcome.)
