Villa Chavaniac - Spectacular Oceanfront Property

Villa Chavaniac is a unique oceanfront property on the island of Vieques. It is one of the few large oceanfront vacation rentals and offers 180 degree views of the merging of the Atlantic Ocean with the Caribbean Sea and the islands of Culebra, Puerto Rico and El Yunque National Rainforest.

Villa Chavaniac is a 3,900 square foot paradise comprising two separate levels of living and sleeping accommodation. The main suite 'ESPACE' is at the ocean level, but there are two fully self contained suites on the second level, which we have called 'VERDURE' and 'SOLEIL'. These two additional suites provide you with the option of increasing the sleeping accommodation of Villa Chavaniac from six, ten or fourteen guests. Our base rate is for a rental of the whole property but inquire with us for these options as well. We have a policy of not renting to separate groups, so our guests can fully enjoy the privacy of the property and its amenities.

Villa Chavaniac sits directly on the oceanfront in the beachside neighborhood of Bravos de Boston close to the main town of Vieques, Isabel II. The beach in front is rocky and not for suitable for swimming (it is for fishing and farther away on the reef, for surfing). It can only be accessed by stairs adjacent to the property. Most of the beaches in Vieques are in protected natural reserves.

The property is thoughtfully designed with air conditioning throughout, but may be completely opened to the outdoors to enjoy the constant ocean breezes and nature sounds.

Villa Chavaniac boasts a beautiful infinity pool. The pool sits directly on the ocean with the gentle waves lapping against the wall. There are ample terrace spaces with multiple seating and lounging areas, landscaped gardens, two outdoor showers, off street parking for three cars, and electronic security.

Throughout the entire property Villa Chavaniac offers wireless internet and air conditioning for when you might need it.

Suite ESPACE is located at ocean level and is the primary residence. It has three-bedrooms and three-and-one-half bathrooms.

The kitchen is fully equipped and you will be in your element preparing appetizers, dinners and cocktails. Three bedrooms with full ensuite bathrooms create the perfect environment for any combination of house guests. Two of the bedroom suites open to the pool terrace and ocean and the third bedroom has ocean and pool views. The flooring throughout is of white coral stone with matte blue accent tiles and blended tastefully with mahogany doors and muted paint colors. The furnishings are high end with unique pieces of art.

Suite SOLEIL is located on the second level of Villa Chavaniac and has a large outdoor terrace for outside dining, relaxing on a lounge chair, or simply taking in the views of the pool, Atlantic Ocean merging with the Caribbean Sea and the Island of Culebra. The two bedooms, one with a king size bed and one with a queen size bed both have air conditioning, and there are two full bathrooms. There is also a galley kitchen, living room, dining room, and private entry.

Suite VERDURE is directly adjacent to SOLEIL, has its very own large ocean front terrace with outdoor dining and lounge chairs for relaxing and enjoying the dramatic views of the Atlantic Ocean merging with the Caribbean Sea, as well as the main island of Puerto Rico and El Yunque National Rainforest. The two bedrooms, one with a king size bed and one with a queen size bed, both both offer air conditioning, and there is one full bathroom in addition to a galley kitchen, dining room, living room and private entry.

This oceanfront property is one of the most popular rentals on Vieques Island. It can accommodate large groups at a reasonable price.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned villa, which features a private pool. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, a stovetop, and a microwave. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment.

Fantastic House and Experience!
We had a family trip and rented out the whole house for 14 people (ages 7-75). The house was even better than we expected. We loved the pool, the rooms, having separate apartments and everything about the house. The pool overlooking the ocean was an awesome place to hang out in the morning, afternoon, and at night (you could look out from the pool to the ocean and see crabs, little sharks, fish, and iguanas). We appreciated the separate apartments that were convenient yet provided privacy. We walked to the bars, restaurants and grocery stores in town and it was a great central location to access the Vieques Beaches and towns. Note that you will be in a neighborhood with a wide range of houses from high end to vacant, but we appreciated the diverse and integrated setting of the neighborhood and Vieques overall. The hosts and our local contact for the house were very responsive and helpful and the instructions they provided for check in and checkout made it an easy and efficient experience. If you are looking for perfection surrounded by luxury, this house and Vieques probably isn’t for you…but if you are looking for a great house in a beautiful setting on an island with a ton of charm and fantastic beaches, then we couldn’t more highly recommend this house and overall experience.

Amazing Place to Stay in Vieques, PR
My family and I spent the most wonderful vacation in Vieques. The Chavaniac villa provided such incredible accommodations which made for an incredible experience. The house from top to bottom is a testament to making your guests feel at home. Every bedroom having its own bathroom, the decor, the views, the pool, the main kitchen having all utensils needed to prepare meals, and above all the cleanliness. We were happy to have found this house and wanted to stay longer. I'm sure you get compliments from your guests all the time because you deserve it. Thank you for making my daughter's birthday celebration so memorable. We hope to be able to return to your villa. Thank you again for providing your guests with such an amazing place.

The views at this location are unbeatable. The communications with the owners tremendous. The pool was just perfect. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook breakfasts and dinners. The only recommendations for future renters is to make sure you have arranged a rental car upon your arrival that will pick you up at the airport or ferry. Bring coffee and spices.

Excellent place to stay!!
It was great! The property manager was super nice and had new keys ready for the Apts when the previous guest forgot to leave them. He was kind enough to let our early guest stash his stuff while the place was being cleaned, and the kitchen AC was fixed promptly. All in all, it was an outstanding time. I would definitely recommend it to anyone traveling to Vieques.

Beautiful Vistas
This property’s most valuable claim is it’s beautiful vistas and pool area overlooking the ocean. You just can’t get a more perfect location to appreciate the natural land and water attributes of Vieques. The property accommodates 14 people in 3 suites comprising of 7 rooms which we didn’t find anywhere else on the island. The neighbors were friendly. The island buildings surrounding the property do show signs of significant weather wear but the island is charming with its chickens and roosters and wild horses and a slow and relaxed island pace. I stayed in the lower floor espace suite in the main master suite which is perfection. My friends stayed upstairs in the other suites and they would have liked to have had the same level of decor in the bedrooms and bathrooms upstairs as they saw in the ground floor suite. Other than that the AC was cool and we were locked in safe each night. We made great memories at this home.

An amazing property
Enjoying the views of the stunning sunsets from the pool were the perfect way to end our day of beach hopping or snorkeling. Two couples stayed on the pool level, while four kids were “living the dream” in the two apartments on the balcony floor. This was beyond perfect for our families with young teenagers who appreciated the independent feel of upstairs while the adult enjoyed the peace and quiet downstairs.

Amazing house and location. Watching the sunset from the pool was priceless as was waking up to the sound of the waves. Tastefully decorated with all the amenities, ideal for a large group. Cool modern outdoor furniture. Host was very attentive and helpful with recommendations for our stay.

Beautiful ocean view
We loved our stay! You could not be closer to the water with amazing views and ocean sounds. It was great to have separate spaces and a larger main kitchen for a group our size. We enjoyed being walking distance to Isabel II and had great experiences at the restaurants and markets. Such a wonderful island vibe!

Best location right on the ocean. Evening sunsets are beautiful, and rainbows appear after brief morning showers. The house is spacious (easily accommodated all nine of us), clean, well furnished, pleasant exterior and only a short walk into town. We loved the swimming pool. Highly recommended!

Incredible house
The house was great for our group - four of the bedrooms were located outside of the main house, which didn’t prove to be too big of an inconvenience. The proximity to town/restaurants was incredible! The sound of the crashing waves in the pool we’re very nice. The pool was a bit cold (in January). Would certainly come back!

Stellar location with gorgeous views
Our three generation family with 8 adults and 4 children enjoyed our Thanksgiving week stay. Plenty of room to gather and separate. The outdoor shower and pool were popular activity areas to wind down after days at the beach. A car is needed. We rented broncos/jeepsfrom Maritza. Ample off street parking for 4 vehicles if you properly angle. While there are some area restaurants, the hours and reservations availability left us preferring to cook in for breakfasts and dinners using the downstairs kitchen. Food shopping was really more of a ‘hunt’ as described by other visitors. If you are flexible, and creative, you can find proteins and veggies. Weirdly, fresh fruit was tough to find. And the kitchen pots and pans are of decent quality but limited sizes. Still we persevered. The décor is best for adults as we needed to be constantly on guard to watch the children with the all white slipcovers. Enjoyed the outdoor spaces! TV streaming worked for an important game. Be prepared to go to the store for paper products. The washer and dryer were welcome appliances.

We enjoyed the property this was the first time being in Vieques so we didn’t know what to expect. The house was very nice in comparison to other properties on the island. The number one thing our group of 10 enjoyed about it was have a bathroom for every couple. I would recommend to anyone looking to book a large home for a group of adults.

The place is beautiful!
The place is perfect for a large family group. The A/Cs where a bit of an issue but once we figured it out with Lizzie’s help we were able to enjoy the stay more. The view from the pool is amazing! There are a few repairs needed but on an island that gets hit by hurricanes this is one of the best Place I’ve stayed in! We left an extra pot that we purchased to cook a big family dinner however we couldn’t take it back on the plane with us. Hopefully someone else’s can make good use of it during their stay. I would absolutely love to stay here again! The place is 15-30 min away from everything on the island! I highly recommend it!

The Trip of Our Dreams!
Villa Chavaniac was the perfect place to stay for our group. We came to Vieques for my bachelorette party and the house was absolutely stunning! We had a group of 12 girls who all fit very comfortably on the property. We had a few snafus getting to the island and David was very helpful with our situation. Everyone we communicated with regarding our stay at the villa was so sweet and accomodating! They helped arrange a welcome dinner that was delivered to the house on our arrival, which was delicious. The patio and pool were stunning and we spent the majority of our time enjoying the incredible view. Overall, every single one of us had an amazing time and I can't recommend this VRBO enough! Thank you to David and his team for a wonderful celebration!

Wish it lived up to its potential
The house is beautifully situated with great ocean views and multiple terraces. The three downstairs bedrooms are large and well furnished as is the downstairs public space but the top four bedrooms are small and somewhat shabby. Overall, the house is not well maintained- bulbs were out, broken closet doors, air conditioner problems, broken jacuzzi, running toilet, worn towels, shortage of hangers The property manager was not there at checkin but was available when contacted for specific problems. Our biggest disappointment was that there was no beach access from the house which we could not have known from the VRBO property description. We surmised that the beach was not swimmable but did not know that we could not even walk on the beach. Also, the pool, which was lovely, was much smaller than it appeared on the listing. Overall, it was ok but not great.
