The best thing to do in Vieques is relax! There are too many wonderful, pristine, quiet, serene beaches here to mention. Wonderful restaurants to eat at and plenty of places to just hangout. Experience the history of Vieques - visit the Fort and the Lighthouse. We will provide our most recent favorites in our welcome packet as well as any other recommendations from our guests. I've provided some additional links below for you to explore.
Car Rentals: I would be happy to help you secure a car rental which is highly recommended here. Some of the best beaches cannot be reached without one.

Vintage Vieques VIEQUES, Puerto Rico — Travelers smitten with this 21-mile-long island off the coast of Puerto Rico love it as much for what it lacks as for what it has. Absent are malls, stoplights, casinos and golf courses. Only one lodging has full resort amenities, and it hasn't been a raging success. - By Jayne Clark, USA TODAY |
