Considered one of the premier sites on the island by all who know Vieques, The Dacha is a beautiful large new house perched on a cliff above the sea. On this point of land facing north to Culebra and Puerto Rico, you get sweeping ocean views above the breaking waves as well as access to your own private beach. http://www.caribbeanmag.com/search/hotels/Puerto_Rico/dacha/hotel/1294/28/ en-us Copyright 1998 e-TravelMedia.com/CaribbeanMag.com Tue, 14 Feb 2012 16:59:40 EST This five bedroom, four and a half bathroom house is perfect for two or three families, great for entertaining should you have a group of friends on the island, or peaceful for just a few people looking for a quiet retreat. You will find a very spacious master suite with an outdoor shower room and a private balcony, two other large bedrooms (each with private balcony) in the main house, and two small bedrooms in the adjacent casita connected by a bathroom (also with outdoor shower) which we designed especially for children to give them a private space. You dine alfresco under the wraparound terrace, or beside the horizonless pool. If you prefer not to cook, Chasti, our local caretaker was once the chef at a nearby restaurant. He has a way with the barbecue and is there to make your stay more comfortable. He is also a great resource of information about the island. Of course you should visit our favorite restaurants too: Media Luna, Cafe Blu, The Oasis at the Water's Edge, and La Campesina. . . . sunset by the pool This colorful house full of heavy antique Indian and Indonesian Mahogany furniture features lovely little surprises like a cigar smoking tower and tiny balcony one flight above the house, and a narrow stair to the natural pool in the rocks one flight below the house.
