Spectacular Hillside Villa - Best Views on Vieques - As seen on H.G.T.V!

As seen on HGTV, Caribbean Vista is the perfect vacation spot to soak up the sun by day, star gaze at night or simply to swim and relax at anytime and in complete privacy in an 8 foot deep infinity pool providing dazzling views of the National Wildlife Refuge and Caribbean Sea.

Several stairs lead into the villa where you immediately experience a welcoming feel. Once inside the villa, guests will experience complete privacy. Caribbean Vista is well equipped with a kitchen that opens to a living room with vaulted ceilings and charming features, and furniture as well. From the kitchen and open living area of the villa, guests can enjoy the gorgeous views of the tropical gardens, and infinity pool and out to the Caribbean Sea. There are two bedrooms each with queen size beds, high thread count linens, soft pillows also provide views of the beautiful blue waters of the Caribbean Sea. The comfortable bathroom features Italian tiles and is loaded with soft, fluffy, white towels and a large shower. The villa has a one car garage for convenient access to the main entrance of the villa.

Caribbean Vista is a charming and recently renovated 2-bedroom villa, perfectly and ideally located in the peaceful hillside neighborhood of Destino on Vieques Island, Puerto Rico USA. This hillside villa, which is very private and unique, boasts commanding and dramatic Southern views of Vieques Island, Caribbean Sea, Cayos of Esperanza, Bioluminescent Bay and the National Wildlife Refuge. The spectacular infinity swimming pool has dramatic views and features a waterfall, with multiple lounging, sunbathing and entertaining areas and is a perfect place for alfresco dining. The colorful tropical gardens surrounding the villa and infinity pool are an explosion of colors, textures and shapes. Because of its unique hillside location, Caribbean Vista boasts some of the most amazing sunrises and sunsets you will ever experience in the Caribbean.

Destino neighborhood is one of the most desired and exclusive locations on Vieques Island and a favorite of many because of its unique panorama with hypnotic Southern views of Vieques Island and the Caribbean Sea. This unique island location is close to it all with the best part being that it is only minutes from the main entrance to the National Wildlife Refuge area, providing access to some of the most beautiful, peaceful and pristine beaches in the Caribbean and the World.

Caribbean Vista and the Destino neighborhood make the perfect combination for those seeking a private, romantic, relaxing or quiet vacation. Alternatively, it is also perfect for those seeking an adventure paradise from jogging, hiking, horseriding, bicycling, exploring unique and historic sites or visiting the World renowned Bioluminescent Bay, or simply taking a nature walk. For the beach lovers there is an abundance of beautiful unspoilt beaches for snorkeling, swimming or just relaxing.

Breathtaking Views!
This is an absolutely stunning property in a convenient, hilltop neighborhood that overlooks the southern part of Vieques. The patio and pool are top notch, the beds are comfortable, and the kitchen is well-appointed. The pool is the star here - it overlooks the Wildlife Preserve and ocean, and is plenty big enough for a proper swim. The location of this house is convenient to Esperanza and Isabel Segunda - about a 10 minute easy drive from each. As other reviews said, the road leading to this property is steep, but by no means unmanageable. I would 100% return to this home - thanks for an amazing stay!

The views are beautiful from the house. There is a pretty pool. The house is small but perfect for 2 people. It is tastefully furnished and clean. The gardens are lovely with flowers and palm trees. The outside needed to be cleaned up and the pool vacuumed. Angie, the manager tried her best to get this done and it was better after a week. The location is great between Esperanza and Isabel Segunda and just a short drive from the beaches.

Great hillside home with spectacular view. We enjoyed the pool and the location- easy to get to any part of the island. The hill and driveway require a sense of adventure, which we always pack when we vacation on Vieques. Minor bummer, the dryer was not functional but we quickly learned how to convert a chaise lounge into a drying rack. Would stay here again :)

Disappointing
I had no idea that the drive would be so treacherous. The pool was 8 ft deep with no steps or ladder so was not used at all. The overhead lights in the bedrooms didn’t work. A tv would have been nice as we were unable to drive after dark because of the roads. We didn’t use laundry due to bugs. We didn’t get there til the 24th due to plane delays and thus would like a refund for day 1. And because of the uneven steps, I fell and fractured my foot. The weather and view were lovely, but would not recommend this property.

Quiet, private with great view!
This is a modest sized property that is perfect for a small family. ( Myself, my wife and teenage daughter) The view is beautiful, overlooking the Bio-bay and Puerto Ferro. Wifi is good and reliable. The pool was clean and shared the same view as the patio area. There is ample seating with nice clean pillows. The pool is deep! @ 8' so if you have small children be aware of that. The property is very private and the neighborhood is very quiet. The entrance /parking space is on a steep hill- a very steep hill! Don't rent a golf cart or a side by side as I dont think they would have adequate brakes. It's really not a problem by any means and you get used to it after a couple of trips. The parking space easily fits a four door jeep, with easy access up to the residence via some convenient steps. Kitchen area has a full sized fridge with freezer on top, cooking is on a ceramic top built into the counter (no oven) There is a small dining table and couch in the family room that share the kitchen space. Bedrooms are nice with fresh linens and plenty of pillows. Each room has a wall mounted AC unit which is very effective and quiet but doesn't need to run all night. Bathroom is spacious with some provisions ie. shampoo, lotion, bug spray etc. The shower is walk in and has plenty of room. The faucets however are backwards! The Hot is on the right not the left as is customary. I had read reviews complaining of no hot water, this was not the case for us. The water heater is "on-demand" but is located in an outbuilding that houses the washer dryer. It takes a little while for the water to get to the shower, and you will have all the hot water you need. There are also plenty of towels, both for the beach and for bathing. What would I change? Nothing. Well perhaps a large pot to boil lobster!! But that's it. For the money this is perfect, it's only five minutes to the nearest grocery store and the managers Angie and Andy are fabulous. We both decided we would book this again on our next trip if it is available, To be honest you'll spend most of your time outside in Vieques with the exception of taking a shower, sleeping and occasional cooking. Its a perfect base to come back to in the afternoon/evening to enjoy some quiet cocktails by the the pool!! Highly recommended.

Delightful House
This house’s location is fantastic, the best area of Viques. The only place I would stay on the island. It is gorgeous and practical. The beaches are incredible close and the neighborhood is quiet except for the delightful peacocks, sweet kitties, and roaming horses. The pool is amazing and the outdoor patio is designed for groups, though luxurious if traveling with less people.

Amazing property in an amazing location on an amazing island. We wish we could have returned as soon as we left! Angie was so very helpful and the whole process could not have been better! Since the property is on a hill (giving incredible views) be warned that getting into/out of the driveway is not for the faint of heart, but totally worth it.

Beautiful view but…
Wonderful views. However no shade so patio unusable in daytime. Inside was a big problem: all windows were locked and inoperable. Air conditioner must run 24 hrs./day with all doors/windows closed. This defeats the whole idea of a Caribbean vacation including on open air environment cooled by the Trade Winds (and a few fans). Small point: a reading light in the living room would be great. Property manager was great snd acted quickly when we had no hot water.

The VIEW!
The two of us stayed here for a little over two weeks. And LOVED IT. The positives: 1. The view is EVERYTHING! 2. Jolyon (owner) was quick responding and easy to work with. 4. Angie, house manager is wonderful. Very prompt responding and treated us like royalty! 6. The inside was clean and welcoming. 7. The beds are comfortable 8. The towels are nice (bath and beach). 9. The beach chairs were awesome (didn't use the umbrella). 10. The WiFi was good. 11. The ceiling fans and air-conditioning were great. 13. The pool is lovely. 14. Having the washer and dryer was a plus since we were here for over 2 weeks. 15. The star gazing every night was fabulous. Things we wish we had known: 1. The road to the house is VERY STEEP. The turn into the drive/garage is not easy, especially on the VERY STEEP road. We had a Jeep and still felt uneasy. There's a definite learning curve to pulling in and out of the driveway. 2. The patio area is lovely & we can imagine it is hard to keep cushions, tiles and gravel clean and fresh. But, it could all use some refreshing. 3. There's very little shade outside making it difficult to enjoy the patio and pool area during the daytime for very long. 4. There are no curtains on any windows. It got quite toasty so having the fans and air-conditioning was a plus. 5. There's no hot water. 6. There are no closets/hangers The positives far outweigh the negatives! If you're looking for a two bedroom/one bathroom rental this is a beautiful spot. We enjoyed our days here and would come here again.

Beautiful views!
Caribbean Vista was a wonderful place to stay. It is well located on the island (15 minutes from both of the two main towns and 15-20 minutes from beaches) and has amazing views of the island and the ocean. We enjoyed our evenings relaxing in the pool and stargazing. The house is clean and comfortable, with the only exception being the outdoor cushions needing a good cleaning. And although the infinity edge on the pool wasn’t working as shown in the photos, the pool was cool and refreshing. The bed and pillows were very comfortable, and the kitchen was well appointed. The hot water in the shower was lukewarm at best, but after a hot day at the beaches it didn’t bother us too much. Communication with the property manager was excellent, and we were met at the house upon arrival and shown around. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will stay here again when we are able to return to Vieques!

Didn't want to Leave the Island
Love the island life. The property managers were amazing....Angie although she didn't speak much English she still did great translating when we needed help getting taxis. It takes a lot to get to this island so be prepared. Rather you are taking the ferry over or the plane be PREPARED for that HILL in front of the villa. It's not shown in the picture of the villa but the is a hill/ driveway to walk if you don't rent a jeep because a golf cart can't really get up there without a push. So be prepared for that. Other than that the villa is great! The villa is great!! If you do order a cab...let them know you are at the Destino Villa Inn. Not many of the locals are familiar with the area. It wasn't hard getting taxis until after 7pm...so be prepared. This isn't San Juan. It's for ppl who are looking for the beach life. Looking to relax. No clubs or malls really here. Oh but my favorite part is seeing the free roaming horses!!! LOVED IT! I'm moving here!

Magical Setting
The location of this house is simply intoxicating. The vantage point, the view, and the sounds of the surrounding countryside were awe inspiring. The house itself was immaculate and comfortable. We were met at the car rental agency by Andy, who guided us to the house and, with charm and warmth, oriented us to all that was important. We found our Kia to be adequate even though there are roads that demand attention and slow driving, as well as a sense of adventure. The management was extremely thoughtful in providing amenities such as portable beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and a cooler. There was a delightful breeze at the house, screens on the windows, and ac which we never used. The people of Puerto Rico who we encountered, were extremely warm and friendly. We rent often in exotic places but this place was drop dead gorgeous. We will be back.

Beautiful view, quiet neighborhood!
We really enjoyed our stay at this property! The neighborhood was very quiet and the view was spectacular. We really enjoyed the pool and loved the visits from the cats, roosters and chickens that roamed the property! The house is as seen in the photos. There was even a washer/dryer which was very nice and much needed as we stayed over a week and needed to wash our beach towels, clothes, etc. The property is located in a great part of the island, equidistant from both Esperanza and the main Pueblo. It was a few minute drive to each area. We loved the restaurants in both areas. The beaches were also close by - La Chiva was the best!! I would highly recommend a rental car because the house is situated on a very steep hill. It is also not within walking distance to anything. The property manager was very kind and picked picked us up from the ferry and drove us to the home as we were unable to find a rental car. We did run out of toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap in the house and had to go buy more. We were concerned with the broken tiles in the pool as that can be a safety hazard for any guest. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning to Vieques!
