About this property

Quinta Jabali (Spanish for "Country House of the Wild Boar") is a romantic and private retreat for 2 adults. The villa contains antique furnishings from around the world, providing a modern and rustic, yet elegant atmosphere. The covered pool terrace has 180-degree views of the Caribbean. The villa is surrounded by 2 acres of hillside desert tropical gardens containing many plants unique to Vieques. The pool is a chlorine-free saltwater oasis, with views of the Caribbean.

Houseguests have the entire villa and surrounding gardens to themselves. Quinta Jabali is the ultimate luxury retreat for those discerning adults seeking privacy and romance.

In 2018, the villa was converted to 100% solar, ensuring an eco-friendly and reliable source of power. The villa also contains two 25,000 gallon in-ground cisterns that collect rainwater, assuring a continuous source of water for house guests. WiFi is available.

A rental car is required in order to access the property - due to its rural location. There is no Uber or Lyft on Vieques. For safety reasons, we cannot allow golf carts or UTVs on the property. We strongly encourage all guests to make a rental car reservation immediately upon reserving the villa. Our house manager will meet houseguests at the rental car agency and houseguests can follow him to the villa.

All the bases covered!

We couldn't ask for more of this property! We relaxed on the pool deck with that amazing 180 view of the Carribean, watched the sun rise and set on the roof terrace (and star gazing at night), prepared simple meals in the equipped kitchenette and slept like babies at night. We used the beach chairs and cooler w/wheels every day we went out - we really needed those! So easy to get to Esperanza for a cool drink, eating out or to pick up a few groceries. And my goodness, it felt like we were living inside the Missouri Botanical Garden - which is saying ALOT! And both the owner and house manager were supremely helpful before and during our stay - nice people.

The views…

Amazing property. From the moment entering the gate, the property is like a private luxury resort. As all others stated, views are incredible. The bedroom being separate from the (unconditioned) living area was different, but most time was spent outside so it nearly does not matter. The covered porch makes relaxing outside very enjoyable although shade makes pool cooler (pro for some, con for others). The ac works very good in the bedroom and there were plenty blankets to lay on the bed to make it softer for our desires. A nice mattress topper would be ideal, but this is island life and limitations are understood. Outdoor showers were special, you def feel connected to nature. As the rest of the property, also very private. There are multiple fridges including a full size in the utility room which proved useful for ice for my yeti hopper. Location is great, just a short drive to Esperanza with several restaurant options which have something for everyone and are delicious. The green store was a daily stop and dare I say their craft been selection is world class (bourbon barrel aged, neipa, dipa, you name it). The huge mango tree provided a great producer of fruits to feed the roaming horses. Beach hopping was our daily routine and found multiple very enjoyable experiences. We used the beach chairs from the utility room, it may be time for some new ones. Either way we were grateful to have them. This was one of best experiences ever, hope to return sooner than later.

Amazing views near Esperanza

Views were incredible, property was great with beautiful landscaping. Bedroom with air condition big was awesome, no issues. Nice location near black sand beach. Outdoor showers were fun and clean but lots of iguanas daily that we had to toss out. I could see some people being nervous about it but we got used to it and they were harmless. Beautiful property and pool, thanks for sharing!

Beautiful property!

Quinta Jabali did not disappoint. The views of Playa Grande. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore. The sweet nightly songs of the Coqui frogs. All the wild horses and chickens. The cool sea breeze. The outdoor living space and lush garden. The incredible sunrises, sunsets and star gazing. Quinta Jabali has it all. This place is truly special.

About the host

Your host

Hi! We're Michael and Ronald - owners of Quinta Jabali. We live primarily in Dallas, Texas, but we have homes around the world. Vieques is our favorite spot because of the incredible beaches, wonderful weather and laid-back vibe of the island. While in Vieques, we're usually paddle boarding off Punta Arenas or sipping a Medalla (Puerto Rican beer) on a deserted beach. We've been blessed with all our island friends and we're excited to allow others to experience the wonders of Quinta Jabali.

Why they chose this property

We brought this undeveloped hillside 2 acre plot in Vieques in 2003 and began the process of selecting an architect to design our Caribbean dream home. When we first looked at the land, there was nothing around us - no houses, no buildings, no nothing! One day, while walking down the hill, an enormous wild boar (about the size of a VW Beetle!) came charging after us. Fortunately, we escaped. And, we had just found the name for our property - - Quinta Jabali -- "Country house of the wild boar." After 6 years of design and construction, Quinta Jabali was completed in 2009. It has incredible views of the Caribbean and the whole south side of Vieques. It is only 1 mile from Playa Grande and Playa Negra. It's also close to the main tourist village of Esperanza. Sadly, the wild boar is no longer with us. We're sure someone had a great pig roast!

We are now requiring all guests to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 prior to check-in. Guests will be asked to show proof of vaccination to our house manager upon check-in. Thanks for your understanding.

A rental car is required to stay at the property. Guests are strongly urged to rent a car as soon as possible after renting the villa. For safety reasons, we cannot allow golf carts or UTVs on the property. There is no Lyft or Uber on Vieques.
