Frommer's Review
The largest, best-looking, best-accessorized, and most widely visible resort on Vieques opened in 2003. Some visitors accept it as a welcome change from the small-scale, and occasionally small-minded, mentality of some of the other hotels on the island.
Spread out over a desirable tract of beach-fronting land, within a 5-minute drive from the island's airport, it's a carefully designed and very tasteful compound of two- and three-story ocher-colored villas, each richly accessorized and designed with sophisticated decorative accessories that look like something from a photo spread in Florida Living. Accommodations are generously sized and very comfortable. Each has bathtubs romantically positioned in theatrical prominence, and separate shower stalls, and extremely comfortable furniture.
The centerpiece of the resort is a graceful and airy "Great House," which evokes both an impressive mansion on a South American hacienda and big-windowed, mahogany-trimmed Great House on a plantation in Jamaica. There's a beautiful spa within an outbuilding of this place, rich with an almost Zen spirit of healing and good health and an impressive-looking exercise room. The hotel's bar, cozily nestled within the "Great House" is the most elegant and high-style watering hole on Vieques, offering appropriate preludes for meals within the adjoining (separately recommended) restaurant.
