We loved the property, the bar stools and the cooking pans and ice trays need to be replaced other than that we loved our stay and Ron was very helpful and friendly.
The online listing is perfectly accurate. The pool was actually bigger and deeper than we expected. My two daughters (11 and 7) and I felt safe and comfortable in the home and had everything we needed for all our adventures. The beach chairs, towels, coolers, beach toys, and kitchen supplies were well thought out. It was nice that we could leave our car on the street most of the day but then button it all up by locking it inside the property at night. We utilized the washer and dryer on the daily and all the technology in the house was also easily accessible and efficient. If you don;t need to be right on the water and aren;t looking for something too "fancy" this is an excellent spot that I would highly recommend. Beaches, restaurants, stores, etc all within a short (15 minute max) drive.
The property was very clean and conveniently located. The house had everything we could need and a good supermarket was nearby. The beach down the street is quite narrow and not really appropriate for more than a walk but it was still nice to have water nearby. The pool was small but good for a little dip. Having a washer and dryer was so helpful! We loved the chickens and horses walking up and down the street and the neighborhood was very quiet! Ron was very helpful and responsive although we didn’t have any issues at all. If you’re looking for a safe, quiet and relaxing break, this is the place to go!
This lovely little property fit our family (2 kids ages 14 and 9) and me just perfectly. We were able to share the bathroom (fyi just 1 and no tub) and the kitchen was clean and functional for cooking. The kids loved the pool! That was also clean and ready to just hop in. The location was very close to Isabel, which has restaurants and a decent grocery.Perhaps best of all, we were a 5 min walk to the best beach! It was never crowded, had cool tide pools, and was remarkably clean.Our host was prompt, pleasant, and helpful.Highly recommend
Easy location to town and beaches. Ron was great at helping with any issues that came up and very friendly. Good pool, good WiFi and well equipped kitchen made the week perfect.
We loved Dos Coquis; it was just the right size for my husband and I. The pool area was our go to spot for morning coffee and playing cribbage. Ron, the manager, was excellent. He gave advice and came by weekly to service the pool and check in on our needs. We love the area - it is a 5 minute walk to La Chata beach; we often saw the horseback riders going by the house heading to the beach. The house is right on the other side of Isabel Segunda, so getting needed supplies was easy to do on the way home from the beach. The best bonus for us was that the ice cream truck came by on Monday nights!!! The shower was always hot, with great pressure. The washer and dryer were helpful and there is a clothesline to use. There was a hammock in the carport that could be set up. There are beach chairs, an umbrella and cooler to use for the beach. The owners, Rod and Rhonda, were a delight to work with; always quick to answer questions and provide what we needed. I highly recommend Dos Coquis, and hope to get back there again.
We enjoyed our time at Dos Coquis and Ron was a great host and resource. Highly recommend Letty's Taxi service for our shuttling back and forth to the ferry and the food at the Rincon del Sabor. Delicious! But our best meals were at Dos Coquis.

Great place to rest your head after a day on the beach or eating the local cuisine. AC works great in every room, washer and dryer are awesome so you don't have to pack as much. Local wildlife everywhere. I would definitely come back again.
Well cared for, many added touches. Enjoyed the pool, hammock, chairs & umbrella for the beaches, comfortable beds, cooking utensils and laundry at the guesthouse.
This house is adorable! Conveniently located, perfect for the family! Beach is a hop, skip, and a jump! Perfect spot on the north shore! The check in process was super easy, as well as check out! Ron is amazing, knows the area, all the ends and outs! Be back soon!
We had a really fun time at Dos Coquis. The house is clean, kitchen has everything needed to cook, and the pool was great. Ron was very helpful and really went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our time on Vieques. Hopefully we can stay here again!
House was perfect for 2 couples
Spacious, clean, and centrally located. Kitchen was great for cooking and sit down eating. Simple walk to beach and exploring areas.
BONUS, the POOL. It was the relaxation moment after every day!
The home was close enough to walk to the beach and to town but it also felt very private which was nice. We had everything we needed at the house, even a good movie selection! Ron was very helpful and quick to answer any of my questions. Great weather, relaxing vibe throughout the whole island, and amazing beaches! We went to multiple ones everyday but still weren't able to see them all. It was great to come back to a comfortable place to eat and sleep. My kids really liked the pool and the baby chicks that came through the yard in the morning. Having a washer and dryer was a big help too. Overall, the home was perfect for the three of us and I think this was one of the best trips we have ever gone on.
We had a great stay at Ron’s house in Vieques. Ron reached out before we arrived and made sure we were all set. Ron met us at the property and showed us the ins/outs. The property had everything we needed inside. You could tell a lot of time and effort went into making sure everything was perfect at the property. Outside, our girls loved the pool and hammock. There was a washer/dryer on property as well which was very useful. There were a ton of mosquitos around dusk but Ron had left some bug spray on the porch which was very useful. Once or twice we did have to go inside and not use the pool though because of the mosquitos. That being said, we were very happy with our stay and we would definitely stay here again.
The Salt Water Pool. The Short Walk To The Beach. The Neighbors. The Horses n Rosters.. The Next Door Baby Goats That Let U Feed Them. Ron Was So Very Helpful At Any Time I Contacted Him! Make Sure U Get A Vehicle Tho. We Had A Golf Kart & It Was Like We We’re Locals!! My Children LOVED The Food.. MAKE SURE U VISIT THE LOCAL TRUCKS!! We Didn’t Want To Leave & I’m POSITIVE Neither Will YOU!

Dos coquis
House was spotless, linen clean, comfortable bed.. property needs drainage.. The intent of the trip was to explore the island and was able to accomplish that.. The island could be very beautiful and attractive to visitors but the uncontrolled horse population is detrimental.. The bars on the windows and junk vehicles in the yards are a stain.. The partially completed residential construction is a stain.. Island people were very friendly.
The house is really nice and has cute decorations٫it was really amazing the first three days. however the security camera (next to pool) did not work and we found out the hard way. We noticed people kept coming onto the property and playing in the pool. We found our waters and Malta's scattered all over the pool area from people coming in and partying whenever we left the property. we also had some of our things stolen from alcohol to hats٫ gaming devices and headphones. Found our foods we bought٫ eaten and thrown around the kitchen. When telling the owner how we were harrassed he commented he didnt know how people were getting in. They kept coming back to the house and the third time they came my brothers floatie for the pool was stabbed multiple times٫ Our bug candles/sprays were thrown around the property. We were told٫ im sorry ٫to report to the police (which we did) and i dont understand how this is happening. Not only that but i guess the owner doesnt have the pool cleaners schedule٫ so management is very questionable. It was a nice house but for my fiancé's first vacation this was really scary /frustrating. We (mom٫ brother and I) have been coming to this island since i was little٫ my parents grew up here. Never have we ever experienced this. I feel there could have been more said and done to at least make us feel better from the owners part. i have no more space to type anything else. All i hope at this point is he makes some Safe security changes for future renters.
Dos Coquis was in wonderful shape with all the amenities as described. Enjoyed being in more of a neighborhood environment - with the beach/ocean being only a short walk away. You will want a car for accessing town and the other beaches/attractions on Vieques. Location is convenient to access to the rest of the island - though may take a little time to get used to navigating around town.
The pool at the property was an attraction for us in renting and exceeded expectations. It was a great place to relax, cool off, and to keep our boys (14 and 11) entertained while just chilling at the house. Outdoor shower and nicely landscaped yard added to the ambience - and made post-beach cleanup a breeze.
House is updated, well-kept, and well-equipped. Most of the little things had been though of, such that really no suggestions from us on improvements/additions. It looks like a vacation property that the owner actually uses, which means it has more attention to upgrades and details. Kitchen worked fine for basic meals prep for a family of 4. A/C units worked great when needed. Living room was comfortable.
Washer/dryer and clothes line in back were very helpful. Barely used the TV setup, but it worked well for the moments our youngest son needed a little bit of a TV break. Wi-fi worked with no issues for a family of 4 on devices. Heard a little bit of roosters crowing in the morning, but that is typical for Vieques and actually was not obtrusive in our opinion. Horses and dogs made some visits to the road outside the gate and to a nearby semi-vacant lot - but were not nuisances. It's all part of the island experience.
Ron was a very communicative and helpful property manager. He was even willing, at the last minute, to help us with a transportation snafu from the ferry that allowed most of the family to get to the house sooner (while I worked out the rental car logistics). That was much appreciated.
Recommendations from Ron, and in the binder at the house, for dining, grocery stores, and beaches/activities were all spot-on and much appreciated.
Loved our time on Vieques and at Dos Coquis. Will definitely be hoping that if we get to make this trip again that Dos Coquis will be available. The quality of the house made us want to take care of and treat it as if it were our own. The dream for someday may be to have something quite similar to Dos Coquis ourselves. Highly recommend this location for a family of 4 or so.
Well stocked kitchen and linens. The pool was great for cooling off in the heat. Beach accessories were super helpful- coolers, chairs, umbrella used on a daily basis. The local host was super helpful at check-in and gave us great info to help us enjoy the island to its fullest.
