About this property

It’s Altamira, which means “A place with a beautiful view” in Spanish.

Location, location, location. Tucked in the lush tropical Bravos hillside, and just minutes by foot to the town of Isabel Segunda and the water’s edge, this property provides a private getaway on the small island of Vieques. With spectacular panoramic views of the ocean, gorgeous sunsets and the distant lights of mainland Puerto Rico, this entire three level Villa is yours. Each floor features a bedroom suite with full bath and air-conditioning, as well as a main living room, dining and kitchen on the main level.

When in the Caribbean, outside spaces are desired and this property doesn’t disappoint. A large outdoor patio and large soothing pool is surrounded by tropical plants and a sundeck which faces due west for inspiring sunsets.

The island of Vieques is perfect for those who enjoy pristine uncrowded beaches and a laid-back culture for a relaxing holiday. Vieques is home to the world famous 'Bioluminescent Bay' which is a must see when visiting the island. Both Isabel Segunda on the north side of the island and Esperanza on the south are home to many local bars and restaurants for your entertainment. The south side of the island is a short 20-minute golfcart ride from Altamira.

Once again, this property is the perfect combination of privacy and location to enjoy the many amenities that Vieques has to offer. Altamira is close to the ferry and airport making it easy to start your vacation upon arrival.

We look forward to your stay, Bienvenidos!

Exactly as described!

We had an amazing week in Vieques and Altamira, and the property manager Melyssa was a big reason. We had inconvenient arrival and departure times, and Melyssa was great about doing her best to accommodate. The house is beautiful and exactly as described. The teens walked to town most nights for an ice cream and my husband and I would sit on the pool terrace with a cocktail and watch the sunsets. We were a group of 6 - 4 older teens and 2 adults and the house worked great for us. Everyone found their space to retreat to, but the common spaces worked great when we all wanted to watch a movie or eat dinner. Lastly, the beaches in Vieques were beyond compare. They were so beautiful and deserted. We went to a different one each day, and they all were incredible. But, a 4 wheel drive is required for almost all. A great vacation at a great house. Can’t wait to go back!

Great house! Everything you’ll need and so much more. Great rooms, beds, pool and style. And the top floor master suite? Amazing!! Property manager Melyssa was fantastic and always available.

Villa Altamira Vieques

Mine was a three and a half week stay and my fifth at Villa Altamira. Melyssa and Hector are the caretakers and they are wonderful, helpful, friendly. The house, the pool, the view and the Isabel community and town are superb not to mention friendly people, cats, horses, chickens and dogs. Great restaurants and beaches nearby. Vieques is my favorite vacation spot. Thank you !
