Beautiful location, almost perfect
We recently stayed at this lovely property in Vieques, and while the location and views were amazing, there were several issues that impacted our experience.
Pool:
The pump was not working, and by the third day, the water became murky. The pool light was also not usable, making it too dark to use safely at night.
Shower:
The shower temperature fluctuated between scalding hot and cold, which made it difficult to use. The showerhead was also too low for anyone taller than 5’6”, requiring you to bend awkwardly.
House:
The house had no air conditioning, and the ceiling fans didn’t work. The two provided floor fans were loud, making it hard to sleep in a comfortable temperature.
Privacy was an issue, as cars driving by could see directly into the house. Some more plants around the property would help. If the hurricane shutters are open for air, rain will likely come in around the windows.
The owner's vehicle parked right next to the house could be moved elsewhere on the property. The TV was positioned very low, making it hard to watch from the eclectic patio-style couch.
Pros:
The views from the house were stunning, and the pool was a comfortable temperature. We enjoyed seeing horses pass by on the street.
The house was well-stocked with beach gear, though yoga mats would’ve been a nice addition. Jenny was a stellar point of contact with great communication.
This is a beautiful property with potential, but a few maintenance and comfort issues could be addressed.
