Casa de Amistad

Top choice in Vieques


Everything a great guesthouse should be: welcoming, comfortable, well located and well priced. Nine mid-century-meets-Caribbean rooms come with air-con, modern bathroom and TV; some have balcony or patio. The lounge-library, guest kitchen, pool and rooftop deck make meeting fellow travelers easy. The ferry is a five-minute walk and there are great restaurants close by. Beach gear is available free of charge too.
