We flew Vieques Air Link from San Juan. We stayed at Hacienda Tamarindo which I would highly recommend. It's near the south coast tourist town of Esperanza. Definitely rent a jeep or high-clearance vehicle to get to the beaches. They are spectacular. Lots of open undeveloped land unlike most islands. Do the bioluminescent bay - great experience. Good restaurants (we liked El Quenepo in Esperanza and the one at the Inn at the Blue Horizon near Tamarindo), but don't expect St. Barts. Nice people in Esperanza. Some of the locals do look rowdy but we had no trouble. Usual precautions apply. Here are some photos: Pool at Tamarindo Horses roam freely East end beach South shore beach Tamarindo pet Post Extras
