Casa Almendro Stay
The house was absolutely fantastic. Enjoyed the outdoor patio area and rooftop deck. Relaxing having my coffee and evening drink up there. Closely located to the Esperanza dining areas and beaches. Will definitely stay again.

Wonderful visit to Esperanza Vieques
We were so lucky to find this location! It offers beautiful views from the roof top, a great outdoor veranda, a well-stocked kitchen, and is close to the Malecon. It is also quiet (except for the roosters). We rented a golf cart but probably would have been better off bringing our rental car over on the ferry (we didn't know we could). One beach is more beautiful than the next. Snorkeling was good as well. It is a great place to stay, especially compared to pictures we saw online of some of the hotels on the Malcone.

Perfect place whether it's for 2 days or 2 months!
We have stayed here before and it is a very comfortable environment. The views from the veranda and the rooftop are spectacular. The kitchen is fully equipped for all meals from a snack to a full dinner. Communication with Eileen and Anthony is very good. The gardens around the house are beautiful and well maintained! The apartment is within walking distance from the malecon and the beach.

A home-away-from-home in Paradise!
We cannot say enough good things about our stay at Casa Almendro! The location is perfect, in walking distance to the beach and amazing restaurants. There is a bodega a block away that sells anything you might need from food to sunscreen. Eileen and Anthony were the ultimate hosts! We left feeling like we had made new friends, and we are looking forward to our next visit!

Great to be back in Vieques
Returned to Vieques to this great space and location. Eileen was a great host and the space was so good we ended up cooking meals and enjoying the terrace and roof deck all week. Great neighborhood, so much better than a hotel room…Lydia’s market has nearly everything and the beaches and Esperanza vibe relaxes and resets you. Sad to leave….

BEST VIEWS + BEST HOSTS in Vieques
AMAZING home & equally amazing hosts! Best views & sunsets on the island. It was the perfect place for my first solo travel experience & to unplug. The location is unmatched & the rooftop has the best views on the island. House is well equipped with all essentials, great location and lots of multi-levels outdoor space + stunning garden. It is a quick drive to the national wildlife refuge lined with beautiful beaches like La Chiva beach (highly recommend) as well as the black-sand beach and bars & restaurants. I booked last minute after I started a sabbatical & knew very little about Vieques— the host Eileen, was so informative, kind, responsive and caring. She responded to calls or texts immediately, provided info & recommendations for everything whether it was where to rent a car or groceries, things to do etc. By the end it felt like Eileen was an acquaintance and not a host. I would 100% stay here again.

Just what we needed. Rooftop deck and patio were great. Walk to little grocery store for essentials and dinners in Malecon. Followed my daughter's advice in renting a car to check out more of the island. Thankful that we did, although one of our favorites was Sun Bay within walking distance. BioBay and horseback riding were amazing.

Fell in love with Vieques
Owners were very, very helpful and hospitable. Apartment was large, airy and clean. Location was not too close, not too far from everything. Truth be told, if you rent a Jeep or a Kia, nothing on the island is far from anything. Unit doesn’t have a tv or a/c but it does have a couple of good fans, a large kitchen, a large porch on the ocean side of the building and a large roof deck. Parking out front, a small but well appointed grocery store two stone throws away. Ocean, beach, restaurants and bars too close to bother with a car. Wild horses come and go as they please, and there are enough roosters to make you throw away your alarm clock. Toto, you’re not in Kansas anymore.

Great stay overall
The roosters took some getting used to! Bring a speaker for a noise machine app; the roosters start at 3:30am!!!! It was also really warm when we stayed (to be expected in July). Location was great. Eileen's restaurant reccomendations were spot on! Decent snorkeling around the island. The fans could use a serious cleaning and the light bulbs should be awitched to led, since the incandescents provide unnecessary heat. All in all, it was an enjoyable experience. Highly recommend! Thank you! Also: !'m glad we rented a car instead of a golf cart!

We very much enjoyed ourselves. Read the description carefully because there are roosters in the neighborhood- but that didn’t spoil our fun. A lovely place with amazing star gazing on the fully furnished roof!

A Little Slice of Paradise
We had an amazing stay at Casa Almendro!! The first few days had excessive heat warnings, so we were extra grateful for the fans because the property doesn't have air conditioning. When there are no heat warnings, the ocean breeze is more than enough to stay comfortable!! We stayed in June. We loved the views from the terrace and from the rooftop deck. You can watch the ocean or overlook the town and mountains. We could even see a softball game at the park from the roof! This property is within walking distance to the malecon, the beach and restaurants. You are also half a block from a local grocery store which was nice! We rented a golf cart during our stay. We explored all over the island during the day and couldn't wait to relax on the terrace in the evenings. Plenty of local sounds from music, roosters and horses running up the street. Don't forget to close the gate or you'll have horses visiting!! Eileen was super helpful with any questions or needs we had during our stay!! We loved the personal touches around the house, it felt like home!! We can't wait to visit again ❤️

Fantastic location and views!
We loved our stay at Casa Almendro! It’s super close to beaches and restaurants, and the views from the rooftop are incredible. We also appreciated having beach chairs and towels to use. When we first arrived, it was extremely hot and humid and there is no a/c. I admittedly started to panic, thinking there was no way we were going to be comfortable. But TRUST US, the fans and open windows *are* enough! Yes, you will hear roosters in the morning but that’s just Vieques. And you might as well get up and start enjoying the island. Also recommend buying some coffee at one of the grocery stores as it’s surprisingly difficult to find an open coffee shop.

An unplugged week in paradise!
Casa Almendro had everything we needed to have a relaxing week in Vieques. The views from the porch and rooftop were incredible! The colors, the colors, the colors- so amazing! The kitchen was set up nicely with all the dishes and cookware we required. The beach towels, chairs and cooler were perfect. We even had access to some snorkeling gear that worked for us. The location made this stay so easy. Just a short walk to the Malecon - where there are restaurants aplenty, and a friendly market just a block away from the house. So close to nearby beaches- either by walking or short drives. We would definitely recommend Casa Almendro. We will be back!

Lovely place to spend time
The large covered porch was our favorite place to relax and take in the incredible view of the ocean. We also enjoyed the views of the sunset from the roof top terrace! The location was close to a small convenience store and an easy walk to the boardwalk and village area. Our host was quick to respond and offer assistance and was a great help in planning our trip on and off the island. Thanks again for all your help making our vacation a memorable one!

Casa Almendro is lovely. Vieques is a bit quirky, but simply breathtaking!
Eileen helped us navigate little things like the water supply being cut off to the island and gave us a wonderful place to rest our heads at night. The location is a little noisy (partying nearby on Saturday night and roosters very loud every early morning), but within easy walking distance to the malecon, restaurants, convenience store and tour pick ups. We loved it!

Was very disappointed with representative from VRBO, wasn’t contacted until day I landed at airport with info on how to enter the property, wasn’t made aware of the fact that there was no ferry to the island the house was located on because of the holiday . I was a single woman alone in another country , I had to come out of pocket another 300 for a room . I now being charged 250 for a set of keys that was left on the patio table because the lock box was broken. I’ve tried to communicate with the representative abt the issue only to be called a liar I wouldn’t recommend that anyone stay at this location
