A set of stand alone cabins surrounding a beautiful main facility with outdoor bar, pool, and dining. All overlook the sea, and a rocky beach. The staff are pleasant, and engaging. Accommodations are lovely. Vieques is very rustic, and so is Blue. It assumes the simple friendly charm of the island. You will need a jeep to get around. If you are interested in a relaxed quiet experience, this is a g...

I wanted to share my experience regarding supervisor Javier from the Palacio location. We were moved for the Convento site to the Palacio site due to torn sheets, unswept under beds with leftover toys from previous dwellers, malfunctioning air conditioning, and cockroaches presence in our room.

Pros (+) The Hotel Staff is bilingual, loves travelers, will always say hello, will help you find your way around, will feed you until you are stuffed, will make you feel like you are in a family home. This location is across the street from one of the oldest Catholic Cathedrals in North America. Centrally located in Old San Juan for UBER rides, two ancient forts and fabulous restaurants within a block or ...
Cons (-) Main elevator kept breaking down with immediate repair by local Contracted company. Any baggage moves handled by Hotel. They helped us totally through this minor problem.

Leib, Dec 2016
Pros (+) Every staff interaction was terrific. Friendly, eager, helpful, welcoming. Front desk, restaurant (tapas bar, food and staff shine!) History just walks the halls with you! The rooftop pool and hot tub with harbor view at sunset was something special. Then we left a coat behind, and discovered it after our cruise ship left, they packed it up and Shipped it home.
Cons (-) Having to leave so soon. Should have booked a much longer stay!
