Million dollar views, for a two thousand dollar budget
We stayed here for 6 days at the end of April 2024. And this property is the definition of balling on a budget. The pool was great! The views were great! The house was good… It was basic, with ac in the bedrooms, basic kitchen, Basic living room, basic bathrooms. With all the beach items you could need included! Hope this helps.

Wonderful family get away
This is a beautiful property and the pool alone is worth the stay. The local "grocery" is only a 5-10 minute walk from the house. (I suggest the Family Market over the Supermercado.) We had a problem with mosquitoes when we arrived due to the previous renters leaving doors open but the owners and property manager (Amanda) were quick to fix the problem and were warm and inviting. A few tips before you arrive: Purchase your Ceiba to Vieques (and return) ferry tickets well in advance. They sell out quickly and your can't purchase them on the same day. Also, rent any vehicles (car or golf cart) before your arrival (We used UTV rentals). Finally, the beach in front of the property is very rocky and not great for swimming. Playa Caracus (Red Beach) was the best for our family. Some waves, pristine beach and friendly locals. Our stay was unbelieveable and I highly recommed it! The house has all of the amentities of home (WiFi, TV, new kitchen, A/C) but we spend 90% of our time in the pool and enjoying that sunset. We LOVE this house!!

Beautiful view
The property has a great view of the ocean. It’s close to town and has beach items like lawn chairs and boogie boards… It was raining when we arrived, and two of the ceilings were leaking water and there was water seeping in one of the back doors. The cleanliness of the house was lacking. I walked from the shower to my room and my feet were black. The floor in the kitchen was sticky as was the microwave handle and the edges of several plates and bowls. If maintenance was done on a regular basis and an occasional deep clean the place could be a gem.

Family holiday at our favorite place in the world
We were in Vieques for a 9 day stay and wanted to find a place that was affordable and had a pool. Coconut Cay was the PERFECT place. The hosts were super helpful with all of my questions and the house did not disappoint! Not to mention it had the most gorgeous view from the pool on the patio. We could not have chosen a better home. And, we will be back.

Recent P.R. TRIP
Pros:Pool was the gem of this rental. We were excited to jump in and cool off and just enjoy the amazing views and calming sounds. Walking distance to town and ferry. Lots of local shops with great food, coffee and drinks. Horses stop by each morning what a beautiful sight. Very spacious check in process easy Cons: Listed as beach/ocean front however no actual access to beach on the property. Air conditioning only in the bedrooms the house was very hot. Roosters woke us up every day at 4 am . Definitely need a vehicle to get to any of the beaches this should be listed on the website. Order tickets for the ferry online ahead of time. They give priority to residents so if you don't have a ticket and ferry is booked you may be bumped and potentially will not get on. We ended up having to rent a private charter boat at 800.00 to make it to the island for our reservation. The place could use some TLC The microwave has duct tape on it and one of the patio doors was not able to be opened to let in the fresh breeze.The house manager was not available when we called her she was at a Dr. Appt on the mainland told us nothing she could do about ants, roaches, and water pressure and we never heard from her again. We are pretty easy going /adaptable so enjoyed our vacation / home regardless.

Getting to the house is not the a nice scenery, but the property is great. The only down side is that the property is an oven . It was hotter inside the house than outside. After a hot day all you want is to cool off and it's impossible to do that with out A/C. Also the microwave didn't work. Other than that it was. Great place to stay

Gorgeous view!
Loved the pool and outdoor areas right on the water! Went to sleep each night to the sound of the waves. Location is in a neighborhood just outside Isabel, which has a few places to eat, grocery stores, the ferry, and shops. 15-minute drive to Esperanza and 15-20 to a variety of stunning beaches. Beach in front of house didn’t look like a good place to swim, but you can’t stay on the nicer beaches anyway. Wild horses meander by the house from time to time. House has quality beach chairs/umbrellas and some nice floats for the pool. AC in bedrooms was appreciated and worked well/quiet. Beds comfortable! House is an excellent value and we were very comfortable there!

Amazing location - mediocre amenities
There is no better location. But the property itself is in need of some maintenance and repair. Windows and doors that don't open/close/lock properly, kitchen appliances that don't function properly, a ceiling fan with 1/2 the blades missing. A clogged bathroom drain that the prop mgr refused to address. The worst part is that the owner was made aware of most of these issues when I was last there in Aug, but the issues remained 5 months later when I returned.

Carol we are so sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay at Coconut Cay. I would like to add that all of the windows and doors lock and open. We do live right on the ocean and the salt air can make some of them harder to open and close I agree. We purchased all new appliances in July of this year. I am sorry about the clogged drain issue that you had while you were staying with us but our property manager addressed your issue immediately per your request and the issue was resolved. We love our home on this amazing island.

We stayed here for a few days to relax and enjoy Vieques. Easy walking distance from the ferry or to town. Quiet neighborhood with beautiful views. Pool was terrific but no direct beach access. That's not a problem with easy car/golf cart rental. Got one for two days and visited some beautiful beaches. Definitely able to wind down and relax!

An amazing view in a perfect location
Coconut Cay is a charming home and perfectly located on the ocean in a friendly (but quiet) residential neighbor just outside of the vibrant town of Isabel Segunda. The home is well equipped for long stays. The endless view of the ocean from the swimming pool is hard to beat. We loved it here and have already planned our return.

Nice quiet location with a pool
A beautiful house about a 5-10 minute walk from the ferry to Ceiba. Little grocery stores and restaurants. Pleasant to walk around. El Yate was great for food, a 5 minute walk from the house. Beaches and party places are about a 20 minute drive from the house. You have to rent a vehicle. It is wonderfully quiet. The bedrooms have AC, but not the main rooms of the house. Washer and dryer are great!!

Great home base for Vieques adventures
We stayed at Coconut Cay with our family of 5 (3 kids - ages 15, 14, and 11). This ended up being a great home base for our 4 day stay in Vieques. Positives: Great communication with owners before arrival. Very close to the ferry - 10 minute walk. The ferry was right on time and so economical - book tickets ahead of time for $2 each. View from pool deck is very picturesque with the waves crashing in the distance. The home is bigger than it appears in the pictures - lots of space for larger families to relax in the living room, patio area, around the pool. The pool is also much larger than it looked and great for relaxing after exploring. Wild horses come to greet you at the property and we always felt safe in the area. Walkable distance to Black Beard sports where we took a Bioluminescent Bay tour. Beach chairs and umbrella being provided was really convenient. Challenges Many tiles missing from the pool bottom and sides. I wasn't too worried about it at first, but then my son ripped his hand open pretty good on the sharp edges - we luckily avoided stitches and stopped the bleeding but it was a pretty bad cut. This seems like a fixable problem that would greatly enhance the pool experience. There were multiple areas of cleanliness that were overlooked when we had arrived - moldy coffee remaining in the coffeemaker; two grease filled pans that hadn't been washed in the oven; the counter was sticky with something sweet - lots of ants and it caused any paper that was put on it to peel off. We ended up cleaning all of these areas ourselves but they seemed like basic things that could have been improved. Also, the microwave didn't work. Recommendations We thought we could get away with our three days without a car but we ended up renting a Ford Bronce and are very glad we did so. With the vehicle, we could access the more remote beaches so much more easily. La Playa de Chiva (Blue Beach) is awesome for a secluded beach for young kids. If you park at spot 9 or 10 you can even walk across to the small island on the sandbar. Snorkeling - bring your own snorkel gear (although there is some basic gear provided) and drive to Punta Arenas (Green Beach). If you're good swimmers you can swim out near the white buoy (or just follow the snorkel tour groups). We saw sea turtles, sting rays, tons of tropical fish, and there was even a nurse shark (harmless). Overall, it was a great place to stay on Vieques for our family.

I cannot say enough about Coconut Cay. The house is very well kept and the attention to detail makes it feel like a home away from home. The rooms are spacious with powerful air conditioner units that cool things down quickly for a peaceful sleep. The washer and dryer were super helpful. It was also very convenient that quality beach chairs and towels are at the house to use. The view from the back patio is incredible. The pool was a welcome oasis after days of exploring the island. I would recommend this house to anyone and would love to go back again!

Wonderful family getaway
Coconut cay was relaxing and an amazing spot for our entire family! My FIL (Puerto Rican himself) enjoyed walking the streets everyday and talking with people he met along the way. Our kids loved the pool and enjoyed time out of the sun playing various games in the living room or taking advantage of the availability of Netflix lol. My husband and I loved the fact that the ocean was right there. We even enjoyed the blackout and how it forced us to put away our electronics and just be together (the stars were amazingly bright during the blackout!)

2nd Stay at Coconut Cay
We love the location. This year we had a few problems- terrible mosquitoes, the air conditioning in master bedroom stopped working for a few days, and the pool filter stopped and the pool completely drained. Thankfully, my husband googled and videoed what was going on with each problem, and was able to relay to homeowner and caretaker all the problems, which, I must say on their behalf, were all resolved eventually. Was just a bummer to have to deal with any house problems when you’re on vacation.

Winter Getaway
We loved Vieques and had a wonderful time at Coconut Cay. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed. Loved the view and the pool. Nice breezes kept us cool and we were able to find shade at different times during the day with the back and side seating arrangements. The location was perfect for us as we were able to walk into town and also to a nearby beach. We also had plenty of room to park our car off of the street. Everyone we met was helpful and friendly. Nikki/James/Lucy were quick to respond to any of our questions and assisted us any way they could. Will definitely come back to this house.

Oven front not beach front
The neighborhood is a little rough great location for ferry but that brings traffic on horrific roads There is no cable tv , when a property lists tv most people assume cable tv not Netflix The house was a little unkempt Lights that don’t work countertops old and cracked as well as bathrooms very old and the shower floors are terrible, we wore our flip flops to shower They may have been as clean as one could get them but they’re old and stained if not dirty The pool is nice but many tiles missing , so a hazard to the feet The doors are metal and don’t hang correctly so they bang really loud every time you close them Kitchen appliances a little used but hardly any utensils especially for the grill Many many mice We opened the cabinets with a broom after a couple of insindents with mice jumping out at you when opened They got into our food first night so all groceries stored in freezer stove or microwave Frozen nacho Doritos are. A Must ! An excellent accidental discovery On a busy street Owner did buy us things that were advertised but not there like beach chairs and umbrella, but we had to go get them and find them View is amazing and you learn to live with what it is , very warm and sunny in the middle of winter overlooking the Atlantic Ocean

We are sorry that you didn’t enjoy your time on the island but we know it’s not for everyone. We love our little island and everything that it doesn’t have such as a Walmart or fast food restaurants. We did have the exterminator come out for an extra visit. The house is exactly how it is described on the listing an open air island experience.

Fun in Paradise
My family of 5 adults had a blast over Christmas 2021 on Vieques and in this property. It is so cute and comfortable. Spacious and well equipped with all we needed to enjoy our 5 day stay. The pool was amazing and the view was stunning. Did not want to leave! The location was very convenient to the little town of Isabel Segundo. We enjoyed exploring the different beaches on the island, dining out at the various restaurants and the Bio Bay tour with AquaSunsetters was a highlight of the trip. Do not miss it! We had two dive trips with Isla Nuna Dive group, rode horses on the beach with Colon Horseback riding. Rented a jeep from Island Jeep-a definite necessity. Every restaurant we tried was delicious but I want to mention that Coqui Fire Cafe in Isabel was fantastic. We also ate at Bugas, Duffy's, Bananas and Lazy Jacks. All were excellent. Don't miss the art studio and gallery in Isabel Segundo-Gallery Vieques, Siddha Hutchinson/Glen Wielgus. My son rented a scooter from Fun Brothers in Esperanza and enjoyed scooting all over the island. Getting back to Coconut Cay.....like I mentioned earlier we did not want to leave. What a cute and charming beach house!

Fantastic property and owner…
We just finished 4 fantastic days at the house in Vieques. The house is wonderful, and just as listed. It’s just north of the ferry terminal, in a very easy 3-5 minute walk. (The ferry was a separate adventure, which resulted in us arriving at 10:00 at night. Just be patient with the ferry, be flexible on your schedule, and you’ll be just fine). The pool at the house is quite large and fantastic, and the view is just incredible. Especially the sunsets. There are two areas to the deck/patio, ensuring you can always find sun or shade, and there are plenty of lounge chairs and regular chairs, all with cushions. The bedrooms were big, each with A/C. The two baths were clean and nice. The kitchen is fully stocked, and the fridge/freezer wirked great. And there’s a very big family room, although we did t spend much time there. Note there are only fans in the living areas, but between the fans and the breeze, it was never an issue. We also had horses wander up and down the street, and got quite close to the house - they were quite calm and docile so no worries there. It was quite cool. All in all, we highly recommend this place. The owners communicated great and Lucy, the local, was very attentive and helpful during our stay.

Much needed break in paradise
Nikki and Cato (supported by wonderful housekeeper Lucy) provided the perfect home for us at Coconut Cay while we took a much needed vacation! Our group was two couples (note: we could have added a third pair of adults and have still been very comfortable), and we spent most of our time at the house in the pool, or eating in using the ample size kitchen and lounging on the couches with the breeze flowing through the shutters in the evenings. The house is around 5-10 min easy walk from the ferry terminal, and it's entirely possible to roll luggage up and down a few small hills to get to the house as we did on arrival (although it was HOT doing this in August). You could do without a vehicle (you can be picked up by tour companies in town or at the ferry terminal which is a short walk away), but you'd be doing yourself a disservice by not using a vehicle to explore the beaches over near Esperanza at your leisure. The beaches nearby to the house are more rocky than sandy, so don't expect to walk to a white sand beach from the house- but with the pool and the view at home it captured all the best aspects of the beach without the sand anyway! We loved our stay in Vieques, and staying at Coconut Cay made it perfect! Would absolutely recommend staying here, and may even try to do so again some time! Thank you!

Perfect for getting away
This place had just about everything. It felt like a home, but in an island paradise. The photos on the listing don’t do it justice. The living space is bright and airy and we didn’t have any “could use a little TLC” issues at all. The pool is fantastic and clean, as is the rest of the house. A great surprise was horses right in the backyard. You can be swimming or having a drink on the pool deck and watch horses graze. Isabel II is an “easy” trek down the hill and you can get pretty much anything you need in the stores there. If I had to complain about something, it’s that you’re not really walking distance from a swimable beach. We rented a golf cart and quickly and easily made our way to Las Chivas, Media Luna and Playa Negra. The hosts were helpful and responsive and we appreciated their flexibility with our travel schedule. We’d definitely go back.

Wonderful Tropical Escape
We loved our stay at Coconut Cay! The house was comfortable, roomy and nicely furnished. But the best part was the private pool and incredible view. We spent most of our time on the patio or in the pool. We found a nice little beach just a short walk up the road. We appreciated all the beach towels and the pails and shovels. It was fairly easy to walk into town for meals. If we came again, we would get a rental car to more easily access the other areas of the island. Now that we are back at home, we are still looking at pictures of this little paradise and wishing we were still there!

Great view and close to the ocean
The view of the pool and the ocean is wonderful. The patio area is designed so you can find a place in the sun or a place in the shade any time of the day. There is a sturdy seawall on the property so you can't walk onto the beach from the back yard, but a 60 second walk either east or west on the road will bring you to a path that leads to the beach. Some things need attention: The water heater delivered only a lukewarm shower - comfortable enough, but we had to boil water to wash dishes. One of the kitchen cabinet doors was broken, and one of the two double doors leading from the living room to the patio was out of commission. The kitchen utensils need upgrading and a larger fry pan is needed if there are 6 guests. Check-in instructions should have been provided on a more timely basis. These issues were fairly minor for us and we would stay here again. If they are fixed, our overall rating would most certainly be 5 stars.

A beautiful Oasis with a great in town location!
This property is a simple, well located tropical hideaway., If you want the opportunity to walk into town for dinner it is a short easy walk. The house itself is very livable, yet not terribly fancy. The inside of the house could definitely use some touch-ups, but you will find that you are not spending any time inside! The backyard and pool area are so great that anything you think you're missing with a little more elegance inside is easily forgotten! The house has everything you need for beach days. Make sure you use the umbrella! We were very happy to have that. The house manager, Lucy, stayed out of our space, but if I did need to communicate with her, she was immediately available for me. That is definitely my preferred form of contact! I have stayed at much more up-to-date and modern houses in Vieques. But, I have to say that Coconut Cay has one of the best backyards and outdoor living spaces combined with location to Isabel Segunda that I've ever experienced. Definitely will be back!!

Oh, What A View!
A friend mentioned Vieques to me years ago, & I knew that when we finally went to PR, the island would be my final destination. I wasn't quite sure what I was getting into, but excited to have the opportunity to be on a small island that allowed for exploration & was known for its beautiful beaches. We had a difficult time booking our place for this stay. We had chosen a different property and it fell through. Not super happy with VRBO's handling of that, but we were fortunate enough to find Coconut Cay to save the day! A short ride from the ferry, the house itself is lovely and spacious. The turquoise blue on the exterior pops & gives a lovely island feel. The living area has lots of space & is open and airy. Along the hallway, the bedrooms & bathrooms also had room to move around comfortably. There are games & books in the living room and doors that open to the patio/pool area, that has a small charcoal grill. The best part of this home though is when you walk outside! There is nothing that can beat the gorgeous view of the ocean! We actually ended up spending our first day of vaca just lounging in the pool & taking it all in. Just wow - it truly made it hard to leave! Watch your head for falling coconuts on the patio! As avid animal lovers, we also loved that there were horses in the yard and the pack of dogs that ran the neighborhood. Vieques has had a drought since January, so we really felt bad for them, and put out water and treats. Just keep in mind that horses mean horse poop too, and there is some in the yard. I personally couldn't smell it though, so it was not a deal breaker! Nikki was great, answering any questions I had prior to booking. Lucy, the property manager was efficient, though a bit brusque. We actually did not get any instructions for our arrival until after we contacted Nikki on the day of check in, so that was a bit odd. We did have an ant infestation in the house & Lucy had an exterminator there within 30 minutes to take care of the issue. There are some minor things that could stand to be updated with the house, and some more amenities that would be nice, such as more spices than salt, more beach towels, etc., but overall, we'd be super happy to stay here again. Internet was a bit choppy, but such is island life (PS, no Verizon tower on the island). We also received a call from the owners upon our return, & really appreciated that. Can't wait to see as they update the property even more in the future!
