Vieques, Vieques
Casita Granada is located on a three acre estate in the breezy hills of exclusive Pilon in the western center of the island. The two bedroom 1 bath Casita is placed in a tropical garden teaming with flowers, fruit and birds. The property includes electronic gate access. A quick drive will take you to the glorious beaches of Vieques and the lively village of Esperanza. Come bask in the sun during the day and sleep to the sound of the tropical breezes at night.
The first sounds you will hear as you arrive at Casita Granada (Pomegranate Cottage) is the rustling of the bamboo as it blows in the tropical breeze. Located on a gated, private, 3 acre property San Pascual de Ceboruco in Pilon, Casita Granada is a jewel box, housing antiques collected in Puerto Rico mixed with modern pieces. We call the style well-traveled Spanish Colonial. There are two bedroom options in the Casita. The first is the gracious queen bedroom with an antique four poster bed and air conditioning. The second room with a twin bed is referred to as the snoring room, a place to escape our significant others nocturnal snores. It is also a well-appointed space for friends to sleep in separate rooms or the perfect place for an afternoon nap! A wide variety of books are located in the casita for your trip to the beach. Streaming TV is also available in the queen bedroom for the occasional rainy day.
The living room, kitchen and dining room are located in one air conditioned room. Comfortable seating, a generous sized planters desk, dining for 4 guests and spacious cooking area will make it fun to stay in and cook. As a matter of fact you may not want to leave!
Wake in the morning and fix yourself a cup of coffee in the well-appointed kitchen and take a stroll. The property is a tropical garden in progress. Our focus is on tropical fruit trees and ornamentals. Watch for birds including the Ani and nesting Peregrine Falcons. Duck as the humming birds zip through the air.
Pack your cooler with lunch and hop into your rental car for a short drive to explore our beautiful island. The best beaches are in the Wildlife Reserve where there are no houses. No need to worry about not staying on the water, you will experience the best of both worlds of Vieques. Enjoy the days on the water and the night in the hills of exclusive, breezy Pilon.
The kitchen is well stocked with all of the tools to cook a gourmet meal including a gas stove. During season you can pick fruit your own fruit on the property including mangoes, guava, limones, bananas, and lots of tropical exotics!
Housekeeping can be arranged for an additional fee. No need to worry about packing the beach essentials, chairs, coolers and towels are provided. We highly recommend (almost require) renting a car to see the best of Vieques. Make sure to plan well in advance as they are frequently sold out!
While guests are allowed access to the entire property, we do request that they respect the owner’s privacy by avoiding the owner’s residence during the quiet hours of 10:00 pm - 10:00 am. As the residence is well removed from the Casita this will not inhibit your enjoyment of the grounds at San Pascual de Ceboruco.
The house and grounds were simply beautiful, well-designed, and stocked for beach, reading, snorkeling, and cooking. Kate had excellent information online and was very warm and welcoming throughout the visit . She knows everyone on island and helped us find all kinds of things to do! Five stars
Just an unbelievable property. From the grounds to the casita, to the furnishings, everything was perfect. This truly is the place to relax when you come back from a day of exploring beaches. Kate was very responsive before we arrived, and has thoughtfully put together a guide to the island that has all of the thoughtful touches you can expect to find on the property when you arrive. We also were able to glean some great tips in person as we saw them working around the grounds! We truly enjoyed our stay and loved Vieques, but staying at this rental would be half the reason we want to return so much. Thanks again!
My friend Daniel stayed in this guest cottage. He loved it.
We enjoyed our stay at Kate and Scott's home in Pelan. The home was clean, beds comfortable - and wonderful 'homey' and thoughtful touches throughout A great location - mid point in all directions of the island
Well appointed comfortable home located on a beautiful private homestead in the hills. The only sound you hear will be insects and birds. We have benn coming to Vieques since 2009. We enjoyed having living space vs. just a hotel room. We look forward to staying here next January.
We had an absolutely perfect getaway! The casita and grounds were lovely. We thoroughly enjoyed our daily excursions hiking to uncrowded (no other people on many!) beaches. We had great food at Tin Box, El Quénepo, Duffy’s, El Blok and the food trucks. Definitely a soul soothing trip!
Everything about our stay was perfect. The home was spotless, and the property was private and beautiful! We will definitely try to return someday!
Kate’s Casita is special, beautifully decorated and well appointed. She attends to every detail.
Casita Granada has all details of a high-end designer interior while maintaining the cozy feel of home. Our hosts were attentive to every request. The property is a very sophisticated garden site with many prized flowering plants and fruit trees. We feel fortunate to have had the chance to stay at Granada!
I've stayed at VRBOs around the world, and this one ranks in my top three. It's wonderful, and so is the host, Kate. This was our first time visiting Vieques Island and it's a trip we put together in only two days, as we were pivoting from a long-arranged trip to Mexico that no longer was feasible. Kate was so helpful as I tried to quickly find an affordable flight to the island (Vieques Air Link) and a rental car (Maritza's). Once there, she greeted us at the casita and told us about private beaches and hiking trails and restaurants and - now our very favorite memory - the Esperanza Riding Company, where we went horseback riding on the beaches. The casita itself is beautiful, clean and comfortable, with a wonderful front porch for morning coffee. At night, we were serenaded by birds and frogs. We are already talking about coming back again. Thank you, Kate!
