Making your hotel / accommodations reservations
Planning your vacation may be a little frustrating to you, since life in Vieques runs on "Island Time". Please be aware that you may not always get a response from the hotels / accommodations managers right away as we have become
accustomed by dealing with big hotel chains or lodging on the main island of
Puerto Rico and other well developed tourist destinations. The owners or managers are not always at home to answer e-mails or phone calls. Owners may
also be away from Vieques at the time you make a request. If you happen to get frustrated by not receiving a response
in a timely manner or when you need the response, feel free to contact me and I will do the best I can to get you the information that you requested.

- By FERRY
You can opt to take the ferry if you are patient enough
since at times the ferry is just not running due to politics or simply because
there are mechanical problems or weather issues. I personally rather pay the
extra money and just take a flight to Vieques. Right now you cannot make
reservations for the ferry so you do take the risk of getting there and not
being able to get a ticket because other showed up before you and it is sold
out. More
