About this property

La Chata Beach House - Ocean Front!!

This recently renovated home on Playa La Chata offers amazing views of Puerto Rico, Culebra, and St. Thomas. The entire property is fenced in with your own private gate to the beach. The sound of lapping waves, trade wind breezes, and coquis will fill your senses. The ocean is just steps off the patio. Walk the beach and enjoy spectacular sunrises and sunsets. Vieques is a beautiful island with countless beaches to explore. La Chata Beach House is just minutes from the main barrio of Isabel Segunda, with its grocery stores, shops, and restaurants. The Wildlife Refuge with more beautiful beaches is a 20 minute drive. This spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom home is perfect for a private getaway for 2 couples. Take in breathtaking views of the ocean and the nearby islands from the open-floor-plan living room/dining room/kitchen through French doors to the terraces, and the convenience of a washer, dryer, and dishwasher. There is a patio grill to prepare some Caribbean lobster from the local Pescaderia (fresh fish market). Open the doors and windows and enjoy the ever-present breezes flowing through. The master bedroom has ocean views, a queen bed, and en suite bathroom. The spacious second bedroom has a king bed and a full bathroom across the hall. The entire home has a/c. Rinse off in our outdoor shower after an ocean swim or snorkel. Come explore Vieques and stay in one of the few oceanfront homes. Our beaches are incredible, our Bio-Luminescent Bay is one of the brightest in the world, and the roaming horses will charm and entertain you, as will the occasional iguana. Vieques is truly an enchanted tropical island and we look forward to welcoming you to La Chata Beach House! This property is for adults only.

PERFECT Beachfront Home

Betty made us feel welcomed from the start! The house is nearly perfect in every way for a group of 4. It has the most amazing view and lovely outdoor space. We loved walking on this beach searching for sea glass and other beauties. Saw quite a few free range horses on our stretch of beach and they gathered at the watering hole next door. Everything you need for a fabulous visit to the beach was provided…beach chairs, beach towels, cooler bags and beach bags. The home even had amazing shampoo, conditioner, hand soap, laundry detergent and the best smelling hand sanitizer ever…small details that impressed our discerning group! This home was close to town for shopping and restaurants and a short drive to amazing white sand beaches. We will definitely stay here again!

Epic Experience!

La Chata Beach House is everything you want it to be - location, accomodations, access, beachfront, sea glass, wild horses and the friendliest of people! Betty is a great host and Vieques is a dream island. If you are looking for true relaxation with the most incredible beaches with little touristy spots- look no further! We cannot recommend staying here more. We will be back!

Perfection!

La Chata and Vieques blew away our expectations, The home is immaculate and the perfect size for two couples. Very quiet neighborhood, the views are stunning and we loved the direct access to the beach from the property. Vieques itself is beautiful and the locals are so kind and welcoming. Betty was helpful and responsive, answering any questions we had immediately. There isn’t a negative thing I can say about our experience. Book this little slice of heaven before it’s too late!

Stunning!

We had a wonderful week in Vieques in late January, and La Chata Beach House was everything we had hoped for. The house is tastefully furnished and well appointed with everything we needed. And the waterfront setting is stunning! We had a great time exploring the island but coming "home" was always a highlight of the day. We spent hours each day lounging on the patio, enjoying the view, and listening to the surf immediately on the other side of the walled garden. Betty, the caretaker, was tremendously helpful in answering questions both before our arrival and after. Hoping to visit the island again and would definitely choose La Chata Beach House for our lodging.

Could not have been better

Exceptionally clean and impeccably appointed, our stay was outstanding. We very much enjoyed the “front yard” and the beautiful landscaping of the property. The owners have truly designed a home they would spend time in and decorated it in a sleek and minimalistic way that induces relaxation and calm. Betty and Miles were exceptional - excellent communication and responsiveness. I highly recommend this property, one of the best we have ever stayed.

A dream house with a generous host

This is a dream house! It is beautiful, clean, fully equipped, with very comfortable beds, couches, and patio chairs. The view from practically everywhere in the house and outside in the patio and yard is spectacular. We loved walking down to our own area of beach from the house, snorkeling at several of the island beaches, marveling at the bioluminescent bay, and enjoying the island food. Our wonderful, informative, and friendly host, Betty, went beyond the call of duty to help us when our car rental (Maritzas) left us stranded at our airport arrival. We wouldn't stay anywhere else!

Beautiful house, views and lovely ocean sounds

This is our second year staying at this property and it wont be our last! Betty (Prop Mgr) is very helpful with the check in/out process, providing insight on island activities/restaurants and is very prompt in responding to questions. The house is exactly as described and in my opinion even better in person. The layout of the house, lends itself nicely to privacy and the sound of the ocean is absolutely wonderful. The house is nicely decorated and very clean and has everything that one may need. Because of this, we feel at home every time we visit.

About the host

Hosted by Betty Gilreath

La Chata Beach House is a dream come true for Brett and Lex, they have always dreamed of owning an oceanfront home. Brett grew up in South Florida, the beach has always been a central part of his life and since childhood he has dreamed of a home on the ocean. Lex grew up in Omaha, Nebraska, but since college he has been located on the East Coast. They live in Miami Beach with their daughter Mattie Holiday and their Yorkie, Pip Aquino. Betty and Miles Gilreath are the on island Property Managers, they will be communicating with you in regards to bookings, reservations and check-ins.

Why they chose this property

The family discovered the beauty of Vieques on a spring break trip in 2013 and after more visits to the island they fell in love with the property and made it their second home in early 2017. They have since done a complete renovation to the home and have now named it La Chata Beach House, it was formerly named Casa del Marullo. The family visits as often as they can, but Lex's work running the North American Operations for a clothing retailer and Brett's work as a trial lawyer keep them very busy, giving their guests the great opportunity to experience the joy and tranquility of this Caribbean gem. The family looks forward to doing updates and upgrades to the home and landscape as their new adventure unfolds. Renovations were completed in January 2019!!

What makes this property unique

A Beachfront home has been a dream of ours and is now a reality! You will be in contact with our Property Managers - Betty and Miles Gilreath. They live near the property and will meet you for check-in and are easily accessible if you need to get in touch with them. Thanks for choosing our home!
