Bed linens and Bath towels are provided, as well as Beach towels and Beach chairs, and a cooler is available for use, along with snorkel masks and fins
In the rear of the house, which is a common area, in the backyard is a covered gazebo seating area for relaxing, along with a BBQ grill for grilling your favorites, the local catch of the day, or lobsters from the fish market.
Also in the rear of the house, in a private nook is an Outdoor Shower Area surrounded with lush tropical plantings.

Steps away from Lydia's Colmado, (neighborhood market), which is convenient for any small items.
Steps away from everything in Esperanza, as the whole town is easily walkable. A car rental is not necessary, although you may want one to explore the rest of what Vieques has to offer.

Dos Palmas Casita is located in a nice residential neighborhood with great neighbors, a mix of local residents and rental properties.
There are dogs, cats, chickens, horses, coqui, iguanas, and mongoose that freely roam Vieques, and at times the neighborhood as well. You will undoubtedly see and hear several varieties of Vieques wildlife during your stay. It's totally different than our neighborhood in the states, and that's why we love it as we do

TRAVELING TO VIEQUES-
Vieques can seem to be a little daunting to get to at first glance, the good news is that once you do arrive you won't want to leave!
There are several options in traveling from SJU to Vieques, and the price for each can vary greatly. When guests book with us we send them an email detailing the options available, along with the most up to date pricing to help them decide which option would work best depending on their budget and travel times.

Thank You for considering our vacation Casita.

Convenient cottage near town

Clean, convenient, and a good value for the price. This rental is ideal for two travelers planning to spend most of their time exploring the beauty of Vieques. While the space is compact, it’s more than comfortable for those looking for a convenient home base near the beaches, restaurants, and adventures of Esperanza and beyond.

Perfect!

Love the coziness of villa. Had all the necessities and the location was perfect being close to all the activities to walk but quiet from the night life. The onsite property manager was so very helpful and pleasant. The information provided by hosts for directions car rentals, check in, etc. was so much needed and very much appreciated. Will be staying here again. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Great stay at Dos Palmas!

My husband and I stayed in Dos Palmas over New Years and really enjoyed our stay! We had everything we needed to be comfortable and took full advantage of all the fabulous restaurants only a few minutes away. We both agree this is the best part of Vieques and would definitely recommend it to anyone! Thank you to Chip and Angie for a fabulous stay!

Wonderful place to Relax!

We stayed at Dos Palmas for 5 nights and loved it. This is a great place for a couple. The location is great, really liked having the front porch to sit out on. It was a great spot to go out from and explore all of the beaches on Vieques. We purchased freshly caught fish at the fish market in Isabella II and grilled it on the gas grill in the backyard. We cannot wait to go back!

Cute and clean place to stay. Comfortable bed, clean sheets. Kitchen had everything we needed for a three night stay. We borrowed cooler, beach chairs and towels for day trips.

Perfect location!!

The casita was perfect for us. Like many others have mentioned, it is a short walk to the Malecon with its many bars and restaurants. Also just around the corner from a grocery store. Just two rooms, kitchen and bedroom, but it doesn’t feel small. Great front patio for our morning coffee. Off street parking was not available to us because the upstairs was occupied also. The a/c in the bedroom kept us comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed. Everything for a great stay was available although many of the beach chairs were broken. I would have liked hot water in the bathroom sink for shaving. Would absolutely stay here again.

IT'S A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

This house has the perfect location. You feel like you are hanging out in the local neighborhood. The local grocery store, the malecon, and most restaurants are easy walking.. The property manager lives across the street and is a wealth of information. The house is well stocked with everything you might need. We loved it!

Amazing stay in Esperanza!

We had an amazing stay at Chip and Angies rental in Esperanza! Great location - the unit is exceptionally clean and has everything you could possibly need. The kitchen was fully stocked (pots, pans, utensils, etc.), and they had everything you'd want for the perfect beach day (snorkels/fins, chairs, cooler, etc). Chip and Angie are extremely quick to respond and were amazing to provide all the details prior to arrival. Miguel the property manager was equally great! He greeted us upon arrival and showed us all around, and just across the street if we ever needed anything. Would highly recommend staying here!

Great place in a fabulous destination

Our stay in Dos Palmas Casita was part of a long-awaited Caribbean trip we had originally planned for last fall. We had to postpone the trip because of the hurricanes and we were a little apprehensive to go this soon, but we’re so glad we did. While there is definitely still evidence of storm damage and recovery the limitations didn’t reduce our enjoyment at all. We had more than enough to do and Vieques was the highlight of our trip. The Bio Bay was a “5” the night we went (with Fun Brothers) and it was still amazing. Really an adventure not to be missed. Chip and Angie are great hosts and their place is super clean and comfortable. We had zero bugs, which is really remarkable in these tropical climates. The location is very convenient - easy walking distance to the Malecon and a nice market. The neighborhood is very clean and the neighbors are friendly. We’ll definitely come back to Vieques again and we’d book Dos Palmas again.

Fantastic Property, Great Hosts!!!

We stayed for 5 days at Dos Palmas and couldn't have asked for more from the property or our hosts Chip and Angie. The house was fully equipped with everything you need. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked, and we were provided with loads of information about the island. Angie left us a care package with sunscreen, bug spray and toiletries, which was very much appreciated. All of the kitchenware was in great shape and very well looked after. The neighbors are very pleasant and will come over for a friendly chat. You get the feeling that they're also keeping an eye on the house, which makes it feel very safe. Your two blocks from the Malecon, and one from a small grocery store and bakery with delicious pastries. Being that little extra distance from the main drag means that you don't hear the bars at night time, but are a very close walk to some of the best beaches, and places to catch a taxi if you don't want to rent a car. A great location and comfortable stay. Highly recommended.

An absolutely perfect vacation

I absolutely fell in love with Vieques in part due to the beautiful accommodations at Dos Palmas. I traveled alone for 7 days and this property was a perfect home base. Located on a beautiful, safe and clean street in the heart of Esperanza, this house is about a 4 minute walk from the town's bars and restaurants, and another 5 minutes from one of the most gorgeous beaches I have ever experienced. The accommodations were comfortable, safe and convenient - it was nice to have a full kitchen in the event I wanted to eat in, and the large outdoor patio was perfect for morning coffee. The garage is stocked with everything you'll need for the beach (chairs, coolers, umbrellas, etc), and even a washer and dryer, making it very easy to pack light. A few feet away are a convenience store and a bakery, the latter of which serves the best bread and donuts I have ever had in my life. Just a perfect location in a perfect town on a perfect island. Chip and Angie were super responsive and helpful in their recommendations and advice. I will most definitely be returning next time I am in Vieques (hopefully very soon!).

The apartment is super cute and exactly what we were looking for!

First of all Chip and Angie not only had a great little apartment but they were super helpful in our travels. When we booked the apartment we were still uncertain about how we were getting from San Juan to Vieques and Chip and Angie were super helpful in figuring that out. They even recommended a driver from San Juan to Ceiba who was great and very friendly. When we did get there they were very accommodating with our check in and we loved the apartment. It's not very large or fancy but it's perfect if you're on the island to actually explore and go out. The kitchen was great as was the bed and bathroom, it was very clean and the outdoor shower was cool and having laundry was helpful. There are two little convenience stores within a 2 minute walk and a great little bakery as well. There are a lot of stray chickens/roosters around as well as dogs that all make noise, but it didn't bother my wife or I at all, plus Angie and Chip graciously provide ear plugs in case it does bother you. We loved the island, all the beautiful beaches, shops, restaurants and can't wait to come back and we will certainly stay at Dos Palmas next time we visit.

About the host

Hosted by Chip & Angie Hicks

Host profile image
After traveling to various islands in the Caribbean, we knew immediately we had found "Our Island" on our first trip to Vieques. After several trips we found our home, and we hope to share it with others so they may discover the beauty of Vieques for themselves. In our travels we always stayed at small family owned places with a self contained kitchen for the option of eating in. Our kitchen is well stocked so that could be an option on your vacation as well, though we do recommend sampling some of the many restaurant options Esperanza and the Island have.

Why they chose this property

Located close to the Malecon and beaches, and being within walking distance to everything in Esperanza, it's a great location for a vacation home.

What makes this property unique

Located in a nice neighborhood with great neighbors, a mix of local residents and rental properties, within easy walking distance to bars/restaurants, and local attractions.
