About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

On the beach, a private pool, a house all to yourself.

The rare thing about Barefoot Bungalow is the privacy. You don't share a pool or the deck. You have the house, pool, yard and deck completely to yourself. Our Bungalow is located on the tranquil island of Vieques. Our three bedroom, 2 bath home is tastefully furnished in a relaxed, comfortable bungalow style. The property offers an array of amenities, including a pool for your use only, a deck overlooking the ocean, BBQ, washer and dryer, hammock and, of course, the beautiful blue sea a few steps from your doorstep. You can hear the crashing waves from your bedroom and still be surrounded by the tranquility of your own yard. Wake up in the morning and sit outside on your private patio, looking out over the waves at the islands of Culebra, Puerto Rico and on a clear day, St. Thomas, while you sip your coffee. Listen to the sounds of the surf breaking in the evening as the sun sets while you stroll in the sand looking for shells and sea glass, or lie peacefully swinging in the hammock.

Lounge by Pool: What can be more luxurious and refreshing than a dip in your own pool after a long day at the beach? Not much. Lounge in the sun, enjoy the lush tropical foliage, and maybe read a good book. Sit under the fountain and let the water splash over you. Watch the sea gulls and pelicans fly overhead and spot the iguana family that comes to feed on the hibiscus and sun on the wall. Take a night time dip and float on your back and gaze up at the stars.

Easy Living: Two of the things that our guests comment on most frequently are the great night's sleep they experience in our comfortable beds, and the luxurious sheets and towels we provide in abundance. We strive hard to make your experience the vacation you want it to be with a fully equipped kitchen (to help you prepare your fresh-caught seafood), air conditioning in all the rooms, and an outside dining area to enjoy the breeze off the ocean.
Note: Although we suffered some damage from Hurricane Maria, many of the island's inhabitants suffered much more. Three of the cottages next to us were totally destroyed. They are slowly trying to rebuild, and we applaud their positive attitudes and "can do" spirit.

Absolutely loved the location! Beautiful beach out the front door, secluded swimming pool in the backyard, far enough from town to have some "quiet", but close enough to get everywhere easily. The house is well equipped with cooking supplies, games and books. The bed was comfortable. We would have been happy just hanging out at the bungalow for our entire stay!

I would definitely come back to this location. The house is perfect! Just the right size for our party. Pool was nice and sheltered from the constant ocean breeze. Morning coffee or afternoon cocktail on the patio was a treat. Some day's the biggest question was "beach or pool". Great beachcombing on "our" beach if not truly suitable for swimming. The property manager was very friendly and helpful when we arrived. The welcome basket was a nice touch. Plan to return in 2027. Note: if you take the ferry, bring a sweater.

We loved everything about our stay here. The hosts thought of everything, from the beach chairs and umbrella to the board games. Falling asleep to the ocean every night was wonderful. We made it a point to take a walk along the beach every morning and every morning since it was right there. The house was in a safe area so you felt secure being there.

VERY clean house, pristine private pool, well-appointed kitchen, PLENTY of towels and sheets, right on the beach, well-organized, hidden gem. WE WILL BE BACK! We woke each morning to the sound of WAVES and we would make breakfast and eat it outside watching the tide. We felt very secure with the coded fence and the friendly neighbors. We can not say enough for this perfectly groomed 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house. This is a short drive from the grocery store and shops. Perfect for us as we dont care for town-noise. Also! We were usually the ONLY people at the beach behind the house. We felt very priveledged to stay at this gorgeous home on Vieques!femce and the frieny

This is our second time renting from Michael and Gail. They are the most hospitable hosts we’ve ever had very responsive. Their house manager was great. The location is perfect. Amazing to be able to wake up every morning and drink our coffee sitting outside hearing the ocean, we can’t wait to return again.

The Barefoot Bungalow is a sweet cottage in a perfect location. Being able to watch and listen to the ocean from anywhere on the property - inside and out - was amazing! Especially relaxing in the afternoon or going to sleep. Communication with the owners was easy and prompt, and meeting Elizabeth - the house manager - was an absolute delight!

Five of us stayed at the house for a week. The house was clean and very comfortable! There is very easy access to the beach and a beautiful view from the patio in the yard. There are beach chairs and a cooler at the house as well as a bbq grill. There are lots of games and puzzles at the house if it rains while you’re there. The beach in front of the house is great for snorkeling, and if you go around the little point to the right, there’s a nice spot to gather sea glass. The hosts are the most responsive I have ever dealt with! They have a property manager if you need anything during your stay but if you need to reach the owners, they will get back to you pretty quickly!!!! We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay there again!

Loved renting this beautiful property, great location and wonderful property manager. Definitely want a Jeep on the island for exploring. Property was perfect for our family of 5. Owners had beach chairs, towels and umbrellas to use also. Really great first time experience. Thank you for sharing our paradise with us!

The house was clean and stocked with most everything we needed. Elizabeth was responsive to questions and accommodating. We had an issue with parking so we just parked outside the gates. Overall the stay was great.

Perfect house for 4 girls to reconnect and recharge. Our favorite thing was having morning coffee just steps from the ocean (we recommend adding a little coffee-infused rum locally made on Vieques). Elizabeth was wonderful and so helpful! Really quiet location—I think we were the loud ones on the block this week :-) everything was as described and the house was very clean and comfortable. We loved our stay!

Bungalow as advertised. Looks a bit more dates than pictures show. Patio pleasant to relax on after a day of exploring. It is a little tight parking in the driveway. Neighborhood is still recovering from hurricanes.

The beach front location is amazing. Walk right out front yard to a quiet beach, good for waking but a little rocky for swimming. Ocean waves lull you to sleep. But the house is dated and needs updating. The couches had broken springs, a couple window fixtures were broken, the kitchen has old appliances, the place needs TLC to live up to its potential. Also there property shares
