Great outdoor space but not quite as advertised.
We loved the location and Vieques itself. The VRBO was not quite as described—only one toilet works, the grill did not work (although a new one was delivered halfway through our stay), and about 50% of the lights/lamps worked. I can confirm that the microwave, toaster (air fryer), fridge, and stovetop worked, as did the AC units in the bedrooms (this is not whole house AC). The outdoor space had lovely landscaping and multiple seating options—vast deck space! The host, Rene, was nice and happy to provide local recommendations; however, prior to our stay, he was difficult to get in touch with—he required multiple contact attempts to edit our stay from 2 weeks to 1 week and took many weeks/reminders to process the refund. Additionally, he did not honor the advertised 20% new listing discount. About a week before our stay, he told us VRBO had refunded us too much money for our date change but wasn’t sure exactly how much we owed him. Then 1 day prior to our stay, he told us the only way to correct the billing was to cancel and rebook our reservation. When we rebooked, the 20% discount was not visible. When I asked him about it, he told me we were only eligible for a 10%/1 week discount. Since we were literally arriving in less than 24 hrs, I didn’t push it. We rented his car (80/d) which proved useful for island travel. It is an older RAV4 in fair shape—multiple warning lights were on, drivers seat belt was torn, made lots of odd sounds, but ultimately did the job.
