艾爾布洛克飯店(El Blok)

Rooms were dirty and there was a musty smell. Initial room smelled like smoke, so changed to another room which was smaller, out of date and dirty.

Really nice and clean hotel but water was out on our floor so had to go to restaurant for water and coffee only available downstairs in the morning. Very loud party hotel so just a heads up if you’re looking for something more quiet and romantic.

The building is unique, the views are unparalleled, the rooftop amenities are fantastic. We struggled with the volume of the music from the cantina on Thursday evening (since the building is concrete the sound travels pretty far, especially the bass) and the restaurant is not open during the week (which makes sense), but other than that our stay was wonderful. Great staff, we were able to check in early. Each room has complimentary beach chairs and you can request beach towels at the front desk. There is a cute little shop in the lobby and the staff was always helpful. This is the closest hotel to Playa La Esperanza and the Parque Nacional Bahia del Sol. Several beaches within walking distance (but beware of glass on Playa La Esperanza and French Toast Beach) but with a golf cart you can get anywhere you want to go. Restaurant options are ok in Esperanza, but if you want real local Puerto Rican food, you'll be better off eating in Isabel. If this is your first visit to Vieques, this is a great place to stay. Highly recommended. Parking is iffy--there are public spots around and we had no trouble, but we were lucky. Lastly, we did not know before making our reservations that Easter weekend is a really big party/holiday in PR, so if you want a quiet stay, don't go in early April/Easter weekend. Our mistake, but take that into consideration.

I loved this hotel. It's a special and relaxing place. The staff members were always really helpful and the food from their restaurant was amazing. I'm definitely coming back!

This is very beautiful, well-designed property in a great location with an excellent restaurant. We visited in the off-season, which was good for rates but bad for availability of the restaurant, which was unfortunate. Also the rooftop bar is not open during the off-season, which is good to note for travelers during this time (and would’ve been a really great thing for management to tell me when I booked). The overall vibe of the staff was that of an aloof, unhappy group of people, which made me wonder how they are treated. My other biggest complaint is there is no coffee when the restaurant is closed (which for us was most of the time, unfortunately). The restaurant only serves branch on the weekends during off-season, which is fine – but there are no coffee makers in the rooms, and no central coffee station anywhere on the property. This was a giant bummer.
