I'll be back...

When I return to Vieques, I will definitely stay at Casa del Parque. From Casa del Parque?s perch on the central ridge of the island, the view stretches out for miles. Swinging in a hammock on the porch, you can watch the sun set into the blue-green Caribbean Sea - perhaps with a cold rum and tonic in hand. With walls full of windows, one sleeps caressed by a cool sea breeze and soothed by the sound of crickets. The house is fully equipped with all the necessities and, even more importantly, it has Eddie - your direct connection to everything Viequenese. On top of the comfort, convenience, and ocean view, the whimsical colors of the house, a garden of tropical plants including a row of fuchsia bougainvillea frequented by hummingbirds, and Eddie?s ready assistance provide the perfect escape from the stress and pressures of most of our daily lives. You won?t be the first to wonder what would happen if you just never left?
