Hacienda Tamarindo

Vieques


Perched on a hilltop, this gorgeous 17-room guesthouse mixes a relaxed island vibe with lashings of style. Rooms come with tropical wood furnishings, wrought-iron balcony, colorful textiles and original art. The manicured gardens, where to-order breakfasts are served alfresco, have hammocks and a pool.

Only children aged over 15 allowed during high season (December to April); eight and over the rest of the year.
