Reefhouse: 3BR Oceanfront home, gorgeous deck, tranquility, 3 min walk to beach
About this house rental
The Reefhouse is a peaceful Caribbean island oceanfront getaway. We offer one of the best values in Vieques! Overlooking the ocean, the Reefhouse has panoramic views and is surrounded by a tropical garden. You will be renting the whole one-level house. Enjoy sitting on the large patio with the sound of the surf and the rustling palm trees, while watching the local fisherman and sailboats, the ferries, and the pelicans skimming the waves. There is plenty of seating for outdoor, and comfy outdoor furniture for lazing in. In the evening enjoy the spectacular sunsets with your sundowner. Often the local horses will wander by. Best to keep the gate closed or you may come back to find them nibbling the grass inside on the lawn! The garden has a huge mango tree - buckets of mangoes in season; you're welcome to them and also to the coconuts from the trees. The Reefhouse is decorated in relaxed Caribbean style. This is rented as one house: you will have full privacy. The kitchen is fully equipped. Good beds with high thread count 100% cotton linens. The living room has a TV (Dish cable), games and a well stocked library, and indoor . There are beach towels, beach chairs , a cooler, hair dryers: just bring yourself! Wifi inside and on the deck (deck has some parts shaded all day and some sunny parts all day). There are three bedrooms, one queen with ensuite (double walk-in shower) , one queen and one twin BR that share a 2nd bath (with walk-in shower) . A washer and dryer are in a large laundry room on the same level, at the back off the master bathroom, or by an outside entrance from the garden. Also clotheslines if you prefer since the breezes dry things quickly. Both queen BR's have AC's, and the third has a portable AC. And there is always a sea breeze. Note: the third bedroom, with twin beds, is best for children. The portable AC does not work as well as the in-wall ones, and the beds are small. The ocean is just below the house across a small shore road. A good small swimming, sunning and snorkeling beach is a 3 minute walk (Lalachita beach). Vieques has some of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean. Many are beaches with no structures near them- just sand and palm trees! They are on the former Navy land, a 12-15 minute drive from the Reefhouse. There is also Glass Beach in downtown Isabel, a short walk away, where beach glasss is there for the searching, and great beaches for walking close by. From the Reefhouse, the shops, two bakeries, grocery store, health food store, a deli, bank, bar on the water by the ferry terminal, the lighthouse, the popular Coqui Fire restaurant, and more are an easy meander away (10-15 minutes). Vieques is easy to get to by a 20 minute plane ride from San Juan, Puerto Rico or by 30 minute ferry ride from Ceiba, Puerto Rico. Our property manager will meet you at the airport or ferry and ensure your stay is problem free. We're happy to answer any questions. In Vieques there are no traffic lights and no casinos, but there are friendly people, good restaurants, and amzing beaches and nature. Vieques is home to the best bioluminescent bay in the world! Ask for our brochure for additional details. (Note: We've owned this property since 2000 - VRBO says it's "under new owner or manager", but that's because we started a new VRBO site.

Outdoor space with a view. We spent most of our trip out and about or on the deck (covered and uncovered.) We loved the sound of the ocean and watching the horses as they walked by. The space was great for our family, 3 beds and 2 baths. The kitchen was adequate. We didn't use the indoor living space but it would have worked for us. The property manager helped us check in and find the house on the first day which was very helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

The view and privacy were outstanding. We did rent a car, and you would have been able to walk to some things, but we wanted to explore the whole island. The details about the property are completely accurate, and we had an outstanding time. The recommendations from the host for restaurants were spot on. The property manager was extremely helpful and accommodating. Would definitely return!

This is a great property with tons of privacy and great ocean views. The house manager and host were great to work with and helped us with some tough traveling conditions that were not their fault at all (hurricanes, etc.) we had surprisingly great internet service during our stay and the house has a modern tv with streaming services ready to go. It is a bit of a hike into town so I would suggest planning on renting a car, golf cart or scooter for getting around. Also, a huge bonus is the washer and dryer on the premises. The washing machine in particular was significantly nicer than ours at home ;-). Great place, that I hope weathered hurricane Fiona ok.

Our stay at the Reefhouse was great.
It was very quaint and beautiful, walking distance to the ferry and the town.
Kikito - the house manager was very kind - -picked us up from the ferry and helped us get our car rental, and lead us to the house.
Everything about the house was simple and comfortable- it really felt like home away from home and we enjoyed our time there.

We enjoyed our stay here, the beach was inaccessible (Down a hill) and Glass beach a few miles away was also inaccessible. The Facility was nice but you'd better have a vehicle or you really wont get anywhere.

The place was great . Kikita went way beyond his expectations to help us as we got lost one night. The man even brought us food. I look forward to coming back if they’ll have me

Nice place off the beaten path. Beautiful ocean views off the wraparound patio area. We enjoyed picking mangos from the tree In the yard and watching the wild horses go by. Close proximity to the ferry and great restaurants and bars.

We enjoyed our stay at the reef house. Kikito is worth his weight in gold. He went out of his way to make sure we had anything we needed. It’s a nice property in a very quiet part of Isabell. Close to restaurants and shops but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet.

The house was just what we needed. The accommodations were well maintained and we were a short ride from downtown Isabel Segundo. We had a slight miscommunication in meeting up with the property manager on arrival (my fault), but otherwise the stay was great and made our visit relaxing and homey.

Our family had a wonderful stay at this retreat overlooking the sea in the town of Isabel. We enjoyed walking into town past the ferry and colorful homes. Valerie (host) and Kikito, the property manager, were both quick to respond if I had any questions and provided very helpful info to make our first trip to Vieques a memorable one!

We loved our stay at Reefhouse this May! The home had the most amazing views over the water and it felt like a dream waking up here every day. We loved taking our morning coffee on the patio and even enjoyed a few evening meals. The fresh mangoes from the tree in the yard were a bonus treat! The home had everything we needed as a family of four, with room to spare. The kitchen was well-equipped and amenities were close by in town. Definitely rent a car so you can explore all the island has to offer!

Peaceful Refuge
We spent a wonderful 5 days on Vieques. The beaches are hard to beat, and we also enjoyed some snorkeling, great dining and of course a bioluminescent bay tour. Driving in Isabel Segunda can be an adventure; it was so nice to retreat to The Reefhouse at the end of each day. The sea breeze and roar of the ocean are constant. Evenings on the patio are very enjoyable.
The Reefhouse is quiet and comfortable. We utilized the gas grill on the patio and the well-equipped kitchen quite a bit. The property manager is very attentive and available. We would not hesitate to visit here again.

Memorable stay in a dream location!
Our first visit to Vieques, and definitely not our last. Our family was looking for a tropical get-away from the New England late spring, and found everything we were looking for--and more--at Valerie's rental. The house was cozy, with an outdoor space that had a breathless view and was super relaxing. It's also within walking distance to town and a few great beaches with colorful coral structures and reef life. A vacation that we all will remember for the rest of our lives!

Fabulous!
Stunning morning views with regular rainbows included. Kikito (house manager) was beyond amazing. Homeowner response time was above and beyond what one could expect. Kitchen very well equipped, allowing us to cook meals at home. Fresh fish to purchase from fisherman within walking distance. Love this place. Didn’t want to leave after 2 weeks! Thank you for sharing your home.

Vieques has been my happy place get away for years and I always rent houses along the North Shore. The Reefhouse is a beautiful property that I will surely rent again! Can’t beat the location near Isabel Segunda however you still feel far away in your own world. The house is spacious and had everything we needed for a long comfortable stay. Comfy beds listening to the Coqui frogs putting us to sleep had us well rested for island adventure every day. The kitchen was well equipped to cook up our spearfished tacos or the occasional lobsters we would catch. What sets this property apart is the large outdoor living area to dine or to just relax overlooking the ocean with morning coffee. Valerie is an attentive host she picked up the phone anytime we needed a minor question answered. My only regret is not finding the outdoor shower sooner. Found it on our last night and realized it had an amazing secluded ocean view. More reason to get back to the Reefhouse!

Reef House
Loved the location in Bravos de Boston and the "bones" of the house. Great collection of books, references. Fabulous deck and outdoor dining area. Well equiped kitchen. Comfortable bed. Owners haven't been able to visit in 20 months due to covid ... and some patches and TLC need to be applied but these issue did not impact our stay too grievously. Owners live in Canada but were superbly responsive to questions/issues. Wish the upper part of the stairway to the driveway was lit.
