About this property

SoliMar Sol~Flora unit *POOL*

SoliMar Sol~Flora apartment offers queen bed & a converter couch (full), galley kitchen, private entrance, private bathroom, WiFi, satellite TV, beach towels, beach chairs & cooler.


Located in the middle, between Vieques' two main districts of Isabel II & Esperanza and less than 1/4 mile from the entrance to the best unspoiled beaches Vieques has to offer, we're sure you'll find your studio very convenient for your stay.

We offer "Island Vehicles" for our guest at more than half the price of a rental company. Yes they have dents, dings, scratches, squeaks & squeals but that's the true Vieques feel.

We'd love to have you stay with us and are happy & eager to answer any questions you may have or to help with "things to do".

We hope to "sea" you soon.

Safe Travels,
Paul and Gwen

Short stay

We should have stayed a few more days to explore more beaches. The location is an easy drive to locations of interest. We're easy to please but the unit had everything we needed. Appreciated the availability of an island vehicle. Their welcome guide was helpful for where to go and what to expect. You could hear roosters and the occasional road noise, but there were ear plugs available.

Great rural location

This isn’t your luxury hotel on the beach with thousands of people. It’s a six acre property in the rural area of beautiful Vieques. The location is perfect; it’s just a few minutes to drive to any of the beaches or communities. We loved our four days on Vieques and visited many beaches. Paul was a wonderful host. Ask about borrowing one of his vehicles to save yourself some money and hassle. Take the advice from Paul and Gwen and book your transportation early. Check out their websites as well because they have some wonderful recommendations! Fly to the island if you can afford it; it’s a beautiful experience.We took the ferry back; purchase your tickets online and include a few extra hours since the ferry schedule can change.

Beautiful Vieques Stay

Our hosts were so accommodating and the place was perfect for us. Located between the towns of Esperanza and Isabel Segunda and perfect for exploring the island. The pool was icing on the cake after long days at the beach. We hope to stay here again!

What a perfect place to stay on Vieques!

Paul and Gwen's place was just right for our needs! It was very clean and comfortable, and located conveniently close to all we wanted to see and do. Paul and Gwen went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed and more. They were superlative hosts! They provided extra towels when ours got soaked in a sudden rainstorm, they gave great advice regarding beaches, places to eat, and who to book with for snorkel tours and other activities. We rented one of their vehicles, which I highly recommend, as their prices are very reasonable and made getting around Vieques easy. A lovely place to stay with even nicer people. We'd love to come back!

Wonderful location with excellent hosts

Beautiful property, we rented one of Paul's vehicles which was a perfect way to explore the island with our family. Our boys loved the mango trees, feeding mangos to the horses, and swimming in the pool. This was the perfect place for our explorations of Vieques! Paul offered lots of great recommendations. We highly recommend this property.

We love Vieques!

Paul was awesome. Gave us some great recommendations. The place was conveniently located between Isabelle and Esmeralda. It was near Sunday and the wild life refuge too! Having a kitchen to make breakfast was so much easier even though I didn't consider that in choosing his place but it was a real plus. And the pool, it was so great to come home too, complete with an outside shower. I'd stay here again in a heartbeat. Thanks Paul!

Adequate for our needs

I booked Solimar understanding that it would be on the rustic side. It was. There are no frills that come with this place, but aside from sleeping and showering we didn’t spend very much time there so didn’t need a lot more than it offered. The location was perfect for visiting the beautiful beaches at the nature preserve, and it was a short drive to both Esperanza and Isabel. We rented one of Paul’s island vehicles. It did get us from point A to point B but do not expect anything fancy. We acclimated to our circumstances and had a very nice trip to Vieques, but if you prefer fancy this isn’t the place for you. The pool area was nice. We drank our coffee out there every morning visiting with others staying with Paul. We’d watch lizards, birds and roosters! Super fun and. relaxing. Paul responded super quickly and also provided us with a ton of great information that made our planning much easier.

Casual, Central, Country Comfort

Solimar Guest House is just what the doctor ordered. We had initially booked the lower room, but Paul, our gracious host, suggested the upper room with a large enclosed patio since it was just the 2 of us. We took his advice and are glad we did! The view overlooking the nature preserve is amazing and we got to watch the daily sunrise. The room was super clean, bed and bedding were extremely comfortable, the towels always fluffy and soft, the air conditioning kept the room cool & the humidity down, and the shower had plenty of hot water. My husband enjoyed the pool, but it was a bit cold for me. We started our days watching the sunrise on our patio, then moved to the pool area and enjoyed our morning coffee by the pool, listening to roosters, guinea hens and watching the iguanas & wild horses. Perfection. Solimar is centrally located in the middle of the island so Esperanza and Isabel Segunda are equally convenient. This is country. There are loud birds, frogs, horses and dogs, and those sounds are what I miss the most. I mention them just to make you aware that you will be rising early. Hehehe. The grounds are clean, and there is plenty of room and beautiful mango shade trees, but as a gardener, I couldn't help but think of all the things I would do if the property were mine. We stayed 7 nights, March 6-13, 2023. We should have stayed longer. We left for mainland PR to stay in Isla Verde 3 nights near the airport. Next time, we'll stay here longer.

About the host

Hosted by Paul & Gwen Manzanares

Host profile image
I've spent my entire career in the hospitality/food & beverage industry from busting suds at a local diner when I was 12 years old to owning my own restaurants to director of food & beverage for four casinos and now SoliMar.

Gwen & I pride ourselves on the "golden rule" of treating how you want to be treated. Our goal when we set out on this adventure was to provide a nice, clean, comfortable place for the budgeted and non-budgeted traveler alike. No, we're not a fancy place but we have clean studios and provide everything we think you'll need for your stay.

We look forward to hosting you and hopefully exceeding your expectations.

Safe Travels,
Paul & Gwen
