Summary:
Tropical warmth meets minimalist cool with the contrast of white washed rooms and dark wood trim. Arched windows frame bird's eye ocean views. New Italian kitchen and stainless appliances. Turkish travertine is used exclusively creating a continuous flow from room to room. Styled after a Tuscan villa, Casa Columbia is four levels of island chic. A newly paved private road leads to a hidden oasis with the island's most spectacular views from every direction.
The Space:
The upper floor has a king primary bedroom with ensuite bath and ocean-facing balcony, and a queen bedroom with half bath. There is another full bath with glass block shower on the living room level. A second queen bedroom is on the pool level which feels like a private apartment with its own living area, full bath and walkout to pool and terrace. Property sits on one acre with garden area - bring your favorite book! After a day at the beach, come back to watch sunsets around the pool and outdoor shower, or catch the views from the rooftop deck . Enjoy dinner on an outdoor deck that flows from the living area and connects to kitchen terrace and gas grill. Watch shooting stars on the roof terrace with wet bar and enjoy simultaneous views of the Atlantic and Caribbean.

The Neighborhood:
Find our road located right next to Mango’s Taphouse & Gastropub on Route 201. Located on a quiet dead end road on a hill center island but with a convenient restaurant a short walk away, we are minutes from all the activities and destinations on Vieques.
Getting Around:
A car for Casa Columbia is a must, in order to best access the house and enjoy all that Vieques has to offer, including some of the most beautiful beaches in the Caribbean. Many publicos (public transportation) will not drive to these areas which are truly the most beautiful on the island. A golf cart or scooter is NOT a good vehicle option while staying with us.
