Lovely apartment and fantastic hosts
This is no “basement studio” rental—the apartment is spacious, clean, well-equipped, and includes a very large walk-out deck with outdoor shower and sitting area. Anything you could want for visiting the beach (snorkel, chairs, towels, umbrellas) are included, and the hosts are a wealth of information about local spots.

Spaceous and clean
Our family and me enjoyed our stay here. The y have a lot fruiting trees and plants around the property and we got to eat them as much as we can. The host were very kind and came all the way to pick us from the rental car location. The views from the balcony were amazing. They also have all the stuff for beach activities like umbrella, chairs, coolers, snorkeling gear and fishing rods.

First time on Vieques
Val and Freddy were great hosts! Very friendly, happy to give recommendations, and great with communication. Freddy met us at the car rental to show us to his beautiful property. The last stretch of road is not paved, but honestly the paved roads were in worse condition. The loft was very comfortable and had everything you could need. I really appreciated having for complete sets of snorkel gear! Sometimes with rentals you get a pile of random mismatched stuff in disrepair, but not in this case. We only needed the a/c one night, most of the time the mountain breeze and plentiful fans were more than enough.

Secluded hillside almost paradise.
Casa Coqui Verde is a thoroughly beautiful and well maintained off the beaten path spacious one room apartment with open living and dining space and a small but sufficient kitchen area for those who want or need to cook their meals. The Hosts are very welcoming, generous, and helpful as you will need some help getting oriented to this less touristy part of the island. Beach chairs, umbrella, 3 sets of snorkeling equipment, a large, lovely shaded, private patio where you can chill, eat or just enjoy the glorious hilltop breezes. You will definitely need a car (not a golf cart!) to get to and from this somewhat remote hillside location. Expect to hear a chorus of Coqui toads in the evenings and many roosters crowing well before dawn and you won’t be surprised. This animal friendly island does not care about your normal sleep habits. While it’s remote location may not be ideal for everyone it is still possible to enjoy all parts of the island from here and even get to know the « real » local character of Isabel II.

Great Hosts!
Freddie and Val went out of their way to make our stay an enjoyable and memorable one. Freddie even inflated the tire that had gone flat on the golf cart I had rented. The apartment is clean and comfortable, and the veranda offers great views of the surrounding area. As other guests have mentioned, snorkeling and beach chairs/umbrella are available during your stay. We definitely hope to stay here again.

Issues
The scenery was beautiful. I was disappointed bcz we were there 4 days, but clean towels were not provided until i asked for fresh towels. Had problem with the A/C leaking. The repair man was to suppose to have check it, but never showed up. i could never keep the room cool enough. Other than these issues, all was good.

Amazing stay!
I could write a book about how perfect our time in Vieques was! Staying at Villa Borinquen was just the icing on the cake. Freddy met us as soon as we got off the ferry and allowed us to rent his car for a few days to explore this magnificent island paradise. Their home is secluded, on a hilltop with a nice breeze, perfect for a relaxing evening after hitting the beaches all day. The property is fully stocked with everything you need. Lots of beach chairs, coolers, snorkeling equipment, etc. We will definitely be back!

Almost perfect
Freddy and Val are wonderful hosts. They made sure to meet us promptly upon arrival and were greatly concerned when we were temporarily "lost" one night. That issue is why I only rate location as a 3. Navigating to the property in the dark is difficult for oldsters ( we are 83 and 70) but would probably be easier for younger guests. The location is wonderful for that evening breeze making it bug free. The use of all the beach gear including snorkel stuff for 4 was great. The house was very clean. My one recommendation is installation of another light in the kitchen area and maybe a bigger refrigerator if guests were staying longer and really wanted to cook! Thank you Freddy and Val

Off the Beaten Path Ocean Views
Valerie and Freddy were wonderful hosts! Family(3 adults were in our party) was picked up by Freddy at the ferry terminal while another family member picked up our rental car. Casa Coqui Verde is not in town so transportation will be needed. We were greeted by two very friendly dogs and then stepped down to our loft(see pictures for this unit) and got our first glimpse of the ocean views. Loft itself was outfitted perfectly, anything needed for a day at the beach was at the ready. Nice open floor plan with lots of books, puzzles and games. Internet available and large screen TV worked flawlessly. On top of a hill, it was quiet and secluded. Dropping a pin when we first arrived made traveling back to Casa Coqui Verde after a day out an easy endeavor. Be mindful that Vieques's roads aren't interstate quality roads. With that in mind drive slowly and be on the look out for the horses and lizards that populate the island. Sun Bay Beach was very nearby and a little further drive on the same side of the island, the expansive Blue Beach was beautiful. We enjoyed our stay!

Lovely little house in Vieques
We had a wonderful stay at Val and Freddy’s! The view from the deck is amazing and we saw two rainbows! My boys loved their sweet dogs and enjoyed driving our golf cart rental up and down the dirt road to their house. Val and Freddy were so kind and accommodating. We fell in love with Vieques and definitely would stay at their house again!

Worry-free vacation
This is a great place to set up as a family base for exploring Vieques. Val and Freddy made everything worry-free, and we were able to borrow all kinds of beach gear and supplies that we couldn't have brought with us. We visited 9 beaches in 3 days! The casa is a bit hard to get to, but it is worth it for the hospitality and the dogs.

About the host

Hosted by Freddy Gonzales and Valerie Mc Dyer

Host profile image
Originally from Ireland, Val retired to Vieques in 2014 with her husband Freddy. We had been coming here on vacation for 7 years before that, but the very first night we stayed I said to Freddy "This is it!" He asked me what I meant and I said "This is where we will retire". We have traveled extensively in Africa Asia and Europe but Vieques is home. Vieques is very laid-back and will grow on you!
