About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

On the beach, a private pool, a house all to yourself.

The rare thing about Barefoot Bungalow is the privacy. You don't share a pool or the deck. You have the house, pool, yard and deck completely to yourself. Our Bungalow is located on the tranquil island of Vieques. Our three bedroom, 2 bath home is tastefully furnished in a relaxed, comfortable bungalow style. The property offers an array of amenities, including a pool for your use only, a deck overlooking the ocean, BBQ, washer and dryer, hammock and, of course, the beautiful blue sea a few steps from your doorstep. You can hear the crashing waves from your bedroom and still be surrounded by the tranquility of your own yard. Wake up in the morning and sit outside on your private patio, looking out over the waves at the islands of Culebra, Puerto Rico and on a clear day, St. Thomas, while you sip your coffee. Listen to the sounds of the surf breaking in the evening as the sun sets while you stroll in the sand looking for shells and sea glass, or lie peacefully swinging in the hammock.

Lounge by Pool: What can be more luxurious and refreshing than a dip in your own pool after a long day at the beach? Not much. Lounge in the sun, enjoy the lush tropical foliage, and maybe read a good book. Sit under the fountain and let the water splash over you. Watch the sea gulls and pelicans fly overhead and spot the iguana family that comes to feed on the hibiscus and sun on the wall. Take a night time dip and float on your back and gaze up at the stars.

Easy Living: Two of the things that our guests comment on most frequently are the great night's sleep they experience in our comfortable beds, and the luxurious sheets and towels we provide in abundance. We strive hard to make your experience the vacation you want it to be with a fully equipped kitchen (to help you prepare your fresh-caught seafood), air conditioning in all the rooms, and an outside dining area to enjoy the breeze off the ocean.
Note: Although we suffered some damage from Hurricane Maria, many of the island's inhabitants suffered much more. Three of the cottages next to us were totally destroyed. They are slowly trying to rebuild, and we applaud their positive attitudes and "can do" spirit.

Great place to stay!
The bungalow was just what I’d hoped for, and had everything that we could need, from beach chairs to a new coffee pot. Elizabeth who I assume is the property manager was a delight! She was very helpful, kind and informative about the area. 10 out of 10 would stay here again! The welcome basket that was left for us was a very pleasant surprise.

Just as Advertised!
Five of us stayed at the house for a week. The house was clean and very comfortable! There is very easy access to the beach and a beautiful view from the patio in the yard. There are beach chairs and a cooler at the house as well as a bbq grill. There are lots of games and puzzles at the house if it rains while you’re there. The beach in front of the house is great for snorkeling, and if you go around the little point to the right, there’s a nice spot to gather sea glass. The hosts are the most responsive I have ever dealt with! They have a property manager if you need anything during your stay but if you need to reach the owners, they will get back to you pretty quickly!!!! We had a wonderful time and would definitely stay there again!

Return Trip to a Restful Beachfront Haven
We have stayed here before and liked it so much we came back. Wake up to tropical waterfront views; make breakfast in the well-equipped kitchen. Come back from a day at a shady beach and crawl into the perfect little swimming pool. An ideal base for a long and restful island vacation.

Wonderful stay!
This property was wonderful for our family vacation. The property owners were prompt and helpful with all communication and booking details. Aurelio, the property manager, was incredibly helpful! The location is fantastic, beautiful views of the ocean and access to the beach. The property was clean and had a nice layout.

Beach front cabana needs updating
The beach front location is amazing. Walk right out front yard to a quiet beach, good for waking but a little rocky for swimming. Ocean waves lull you to sleep. But the house is dated and needs updating. The couches had broken springs, a couple window fixtures were broken, the kitchen has old appliances, the place needs TLC to live up to its potential. Also there property shares

Barefoot Bungalow in Paradise
The Barefoot Bungalow is a sweet cottage in a perfect location. Being able to watch and listen to the ocean from anywhere on the property - inside and out - was amazing! Especially relaxing in the afternoon or going to sleep. Communication with the owners was easy and prompt, and meeting Elizabeth - the house manager - was an absolute delight!

Family Vacation Getaway
The location is great, I really liked listening to the ocean waves it was so relaxing. The pool is nice and private. The living room and bedrooms were ok, the extra linens and towels were just thrown in a closet on top of some house hold supplies. The kitchen is in need of some organizing The pans, dishes and utensils were just kind of placed here and there. The convection oven made some loud nosies and the gas grill knobs were very difficult to turn when lighting and adjusting the flame. We still had a great vacation.

Great property in a developing neighborhood
The house was clean and stocked with most everything we needed. Elizabeth was responsive to questions and accommodating. We had an issue with parking so we just parked outside the gates. Overall the stay was great.

I don’t think we would ever have found it!! I highly recommend staying Owner gave us every place and numbers for any excursions!! 💜. Will definitely go back!!!

Beautiful location
Loved renting this beautiful property, great location and wonderful property manager. Definitely want a Jeep on the island for exploring. Property was perfect for our family of 5. Owners had beach chairs, towels and umbrellas to use also. Really great first time experience. Thank you for sharing our paradise with us!

Barefoot Bungalow
Bungalow as advertised. Looks a bit more dates than pictures show. Patio pleasant to relax on after a day of exploring. It is a little tight parking in the driveway. Neighborhood is still recovering from hurricanes.

Gorgeous, quiet location
Perfect house for 4 girls to reconnect and recharge. Our favorite thing was having morning coffee just steps from the ocean (we recommend adding a little coffee-infused rum locally made on Vieques). Elizabeth was wonderful and so helpful! Really quiet location—I think we were the loud ones on the block this week :-) everything was as described and the house was very clean and comfortable. We loved our stay!

Everything was smooth from booking, arrival, stay and check out. Pictures are exactly what you get. The house manager Elizabeth was the sweetest. Loved that there were beach chairs, cooler and towels for us to use. Kids even did a puzzle that was provided. We can’t wait to return!

Beautiful location!
We had an amazing and relaxing stay at Barefoot Bungalow. The location is absolutely fabulous - there’s nothing better than listening to the ocean while you lie in bed, and sitting outdoors looking at the stars or watching the waves while sipping coffee - it was unbelievable. The house is just minutes from town and both the neighbor and property manager are very friendly and helpful. It’s a rustic cottage but comfortable and my family loved our stay. Great snorkeling out front and we spent many happy afternoons down the road collecting sea glass at Bastimento beach. Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

Amazing
The house was better than imagined! You couldn't get closer to the ocean if you tried. It was amazing to watch the wave brush onto the property at high tide and the sound was so relaxing. The house is comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked for meals at home. It's about a 15 minute walk into town and convenient for trips around the island. Hope to visit again in the future!

Such a delight
Comminication with the owners and on location manager was exceptional. The property was clean and as advertised. It was clear that the owners took extra steps to make certain those who stay feel welcome and at home. The kitchen was very well stocked as was the house. Our family had everything we needed. The beach, view and pool were such a delight. There wasn't a day that went by that we weren't enjoying them all. The island was easily accessible and we enjoyed exploring all that Vieques had to offer.
