About this property

Island Dreemz Modern 4-Br Ocean View Artist’s Home with Fragrant Garden

Island Dreemz is a 2,400 square foot tropical paradise on Vieques Island on the shore road on a cliff over the Atlantic Ocean, with breathtaking panoramic views of Culebra, St. Thomas, and of El Junque Peak in the rainforest on the main island of Puerto Rico. This beautiful, comfortable and private house on the North Shore Road has decks and patios sited high above a nearby coral reef with the soothing sound of waves and ocean breezes. Regular visitors include pelicans, the truly Magnificent Frigate Bird (wingspans of 7 feet), egrets, laughing gulls, and even the occasional humpback whale! A three-minutes' walk (about 100 yards) down the shore road takes you to a small, intimate beach where you can relax, snorkel and swim and whet your appetite for the sprawling beaches in the Wildlife Refuge a few miles away.

Island Dreemz is comfortably enveloped by ocean breeze and the sound of waves; however, it also offers quiet state-of-the-art, remote-controlled A/Cs in every room. Floor-to-ceiling glass doors display unimpeded views of the ocean from the upper floor.

Please note carefully: we can only accommodate children who are older than 5 years of age.

A cooler, beach chairs, and beach towels are provided. An outdoor shower in the garden is at your convenience for post-beach rinsing and refreshing.

It is less than a 10-minute walk along the shore road to the town of Isabel II with casual and world-class dining spots, an art gallery, and the wonderful deli/café/caterer 'Buen Provecho' with delicious imported cheeses - among many other delicious edibles and cafe. Here in Isabel II you can also find local night life and shopping.

Our amazing tropical garden and a natural coral tile-paved interior await you at our serene retreat. It is a sublime, contemporary-meets-natural two-story home away from home. There are 2 bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms on the main floor upstairs and 2 bedrooms and one bathroom downstairs; each floor has a separate private entrance. All of this is your private retreat. Both floors have one bedroom with a queen-size bed and a second bedroom with two twin beds. (Only the second bedroom of the lower-level bedrooms has twin beds that can be attached for a king-size option). The bathroom downstairs is attached to the bedroom with the queen bed and is shared by a separate entrance to the other bedroom.

Each floor has a kitchen and living room with separate private entry with world-class art throughout. Downstairs the ceiling is lower, and the kitchen and dining room are smaller than the facilities on the main floor upstairs. There are views of the ocean from the front patio. Plan on getting together on the main floor to enjoy the panoramic views.

Kitchens are fully equipped with china, glassware, coffee makers and tea pots, ceramic cook tops and microwave ovens (because we like to cook!). But you will also have many other dining options. The upstairs kitchen also includes a large Breville convection toaster oven for roasting and baking if desired. Just steps from the kitchen is a large entertaining patio with a large 5-burner outdoor grill.

Hi-speed wifi service is provided free of charge at Island Dreemz when local service is working. Additionally, there is a large flat-screen television ready for streaming use with your own device. (Please bring whatever dongles your device requires.)

With on-site parking, large outdoor decks, modern appliances, a 7-foot natural stone shower, the wrap-around sun deck, a short walk to direct beach access (a small cove) that rarely has people on it, a 15-minute ride to the Vieques airport (Antonio Rivera Rodriguez Airport), your every need is anticipated. You're also about a 15-minute drive to Esperanza and its night life, tours of Bio Bay, our bioluminescent lagoon, and Sun Bay with all the other amazing beaches on Vieques.

We look forward to making your Island Dreemz come true!*

Comfortable house with fantastic views!
We stayed for 6 days and had 2 adult children and a partner with us. Decks offered amazing views. We enjoyed walks in the beautiful neighborhood and easy access to Isabel. Comfortable beds, great towels for beach and bathroom. Also used grill and beach chairs and umbrella.

Stunning views on Vieques
I stayed for 4 nights along with my husband and teenage son and we had a great time. The house is spacious and would easily accommodate several people. The views from the living room and deck are stunning and the sound of the water was a wonderful constant in the background. We did have some electrical issues that were completely outside of the control of the owner and she and her management team handled them as promptly and professionally as possible. Without this hiccup the stay was relaxing and had all of the amenities one would need.

Great views/deck
We loved our stay at Island Dreemz.There were some problems, but that happens with houses. The important thing was the response from the Island Dreemz team. Once a problem was identified, they were working on resolving it. The deck's amazing view of sunsets can solve most of life's problems.many

VQS Island Dreemz outstanding!
Island Dreemz was a wonderful stay and beautiful house in a great ocean front location for maximum sleeping listening to the waves. Our 6th time in VQS, 2nd time on the island over the xmas break and 1st time for new years and it was wonderful. Communication was great and we even experienced a blackout. Owner went above and beyond to accommodate every step of the way. Highly recommend.

Great, well-appointed vacation house
We were pleased with this clean and lovely house. Sheets and towels were high quality; kitchen well stocked! What a nice surprise to see some basics stocked for us including coffee, sugar, salt, oatmeal, olive oil, etc. we used one of the supplied beach coolers every day at the beach. Best part was coffee on the deck overlooking the ocean. Just beautiful. Vieques is more rustic than we realized so we were extra happy with this quality home as our base camp!

It's was way better than we expected
I must start by stating how beautiful this home is! Starting from the beautiful view down to the details of decorations, it was better than what the pictures showed. And to make it better, it had a huge mango tree in the backyard where we just picked and ate fresh mangoes. My family was a party of six, with 4 semi adult children, it was more than enough space for us not to feel on top of each of each other. It's close enough to walk to and from ferry and some restaurants, not the easiest walk but doable. It has items all needed to cook in the house if you wish. The host was very responsive and accommodating. Which was a huge help for our family. I'd advise to bring/rent some sort of beach mat, chairs, and umbrella since they are not provided. They do provide towels for the beach, which is what we used and that worked out for us.

Incredible Experience
Our host was the most reliable and helpful host we've ever had the pleasure to do deal with! She personally walked us through the spacious and beautiful house and property and gave us great advice about the local neighborhood- what to do and what we should avoid. She even checked in with us during our stay to make sure we were doing OK and didn't have any questions. The house itself was also the best-stocked property we've ever seen. It had everything from lots of extra pillows and towels to everything you'd ever need in the kitchen. The beds were very comfortable and the neighborhood quiet. It also had great accessibility to a fun beach. While snorkeling, we saw a large assortment of beautiful sea-life. A very fun addition to the house was the apartment-like area, below, where our adult children and partners could have some personal space. Additionally, the house was just beautiful with its spacious and versatile porches and sitting areas. The house even had an intriguing assortment of original art. To sum it up, we would book this house again in a heartbeat!

Island Dreemz was everything and more!
Jolene was so great with communication. She helped us find the property and met us there. Unbeknownst to me, after she showed us the property, she was the camera person for my engagment! He proposed on the beautiful back deck overlooking the ocean at sunset. It was just my fiance and I so we didn't use the basement much, but everything was in great shape. The property is sits on beautiful grounds. We listened to the sound of the waves each night. We loved the location. We could walk into town for breakfast/shopping and drive ten minutes into Esperanza each night. We rented a vehicle and had a nice spot to park in. The artwork throughout was amazing. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed for our one week stay. The house also sits on a quiet street. Besides the occasional horse walking by, there wasn't much traffic and we never heard roosters. We will definitely be back (probably for our wedding) and would choose this place first to stay again!

Nice location but . . .
Nice location and very helpful property manager, Jolene, but basement (with two of the 4 bedrooms) was damp and moldy smelling. A few more minor problems were the main bedroom door was noisy to move, shower curtains didn’t stay up and having to use a key for each section of the sliding doors was cumbersome.

Wonderful Island Home with 2 Units
From the outside walking up, this property looks underwhelming, but when you step through the gate into the garden, you are transported to a wonderful tropical paradise. My wife and I agreed that in all of the years we have booked VRBO properties for our vacations, this property was the nicest we have stayed in. The location is actually within walking distance of the ferry of you don't mind some uphill walking. It's not convenient, but when your ferry gets in after the car rental place has closed, you can skip the cab if you aren't opposed to hiking it. We liked that having two units allowed our older children to have their own space while we were in Vieques. We also took time to enjoy the view from the deck because it was amazing.

Beautiful view, convenient location
We loved the view, oceans breeze was lovely and it was a convenient location. But there were some issues (not unusual for the island). The sliding doors to the deck were not working well. There were no screens downstairs. Apparently the owner has been trying to fix them for months. The kitchen is small and difficult to work in with more than one person. The property manager was good and came when called and took care of some of the problems. The downstairs is rather dark and not a great place to hang out. All in all we had a great time because we love Vieques!

This house exceeded our expectations! It was beautiful inside and out with beautiful art throughout. We could see the sunset from the deck. The sound of the ocean on the rocks made this place an oasis, so peaceful. The neighborhood was quiet with a short 10 min walk along the coast to the ferry. (Note, it is up a steep hill from the ferry). The view of the ocean was amazing! Our host Jolene was fantastic, extremely helpful and very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Ann Marie Heal

Host profile image
I am a visual artist and had been searching for years with my husband a place like this: gorgeous views, an abundance of nature and warm breezes year round with he sound of waves. When we visited Vieques in July of 2010, we felt immediately that the island and its people had it all. The weather was perfect. The views were remarkable. There were beautiful horses seemingly everywhere. Hiking and kayaking, swimming and snorkelling kept us busy and contented. Soft breezes merged with the saturated colors of ocean and sky in colors I could hardly believe. I could only think that it was a paradise. I couldn't leave it after we became proud owners, so I spent a year creating a tropical garden - my tranquil oasis in Vieques.

Why they chose this property

Island Dreemz took our breath away the first time we saw it, and it continues to amaze us with the sparkling ocean and the sound of the waves always before us. And the lushness of our surroundings! It is situated on a cliff about 30 feet over the ocean and has a deck on three sides with translucent sliding glass doors, providing an unparalleled view of the sea and/or private garden from nearly every room. With our wonderful South American art collection inside and an uninterrupted view of the water and our diverse garden outside, you feel like you are one with the ocean and sky. It makes us smile every day to know it is waiting for our return. We fell in love with Vieques after two days there in 2010 because of what the island did to our senses: the air, the life all around at the beaches and woods and mangroves reset our systems to feel better and enjoy where we were and what we were doing with an amazing clarity. The stars are bigger and brighter in Vieques: it has even been ear-marked as an optimal observatory site because of the absence of light pollution. We saw the international space station in September as large and bright as a beacon!

What makes this property unique

The sound of the waves lapping the shore is soothing and tranquil, the breeze keeps you in constant comfort (with a split system AC in every room to guarantee perfect temperatures even in the middle of summer). You can walk to an intimate snorkel beach as well as all the amenities in Isabel II. Being at Island Dreemz makes worries melt away with each passing breath and breaking wave!
