Esperanza Inn Guesthouse

Esperanza inn is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed at. Tyler is an amazing host and was so kind and generous. He recommended us to the best restaurants and beaches. It is close to plenty of good beaches and restaurants. The room is spacious and has everything one can need. We will definitely come back here and also recommend Esperanza inn to family and friends.

What an awesome visit! The owners were just the nicest and most helpful people. Environment was just delightful and very easy very short walk to downtown, 5 minutes. I loved sitting around the pool and just relaxing. Very rare that I go anywhere and say that I want to come back, but I want to come back and this time spend more than just two nights, probably a week.

This hotel was excellent! We got the 1 bedroom suite with a kitchen, and it exceeded expectations. They provided us with 4 sets of bath towels and washcloths. We also had access to boogie boards for the beaches, and a beach bag with a cooler stocked with beach towels. We had a huge balcony and the hot water in the shower worked great. The owners were so kind, and they graciously gave us a map of Esperanza, highlighting the best beaches and restaurants. Tyler, one of the owners, fed the cats daily, which I would definitely recommend watching! Overall, it was a great stay, and the owners were incredibly kind!

The best!! Our one bedroom with kitchen had plenty of space and was a great place for us to stay in Esperanza. But what really makes the place special is all the little touches that Suzann and Tyler do to make the place feel like home away from home - beach towels, a cooler bag, communal coffee in the morning, great advice on where to go and what to do on the island, and more. Rooms are simple (not fancy) but absolutely comfortable. This was a perfect 5 star plus for us!!

If there were a 5 star rating in *******, the Esperanza Inn would be my first choice for that honor. Suzanne & Ty have created a comfortable refuge that perfectly fits the Veiques vibe. They took over this little inn a couple of years ago and have added touches that make it welcoming, comforytable and fun (in a low-key kind of way). Our room was comfortable, clean and well appointed -- not fancy but it had everything we needed with a few thoughtful touches added (eg a soft cooler & very nice beach towels). But the entire place and the atmosphere are what really stand out. A cozy little tropical backyard with a "dipping pool"; a full kitchen (w good coffee) and comfortable indoor public area; and most of all: Ty, Suzanne and Pebble the friendly Yorkie. They were soooo generous with advice and information (but not pushy at all). The location may be the best on the island, on a quiet street right around the corner from the tiny Ezperanza ***** (half a dozen restaurants, a couple of stores, a couple of bars, all the kayak/snorkel rental/tour kiosks, and a promenade overlooking the idyllic bay). Plus the room fee was extremely reasonable. This is a REALLY special place. Come to think of it: I give 'em 5 stars plus PLUS!

My husband and I just returned from Vieques last night after a wonderful 4-night anniversary stay at the Esperanza Inn. From initial booking to the day we arrived to the day we left, we felt like family. Suzann, Tyler, and Pebble (their sweet pup) provided a friendly and warm environment that was unobtrusive yet felt familiar, like visiting family members you enjoy spending time with. We stayed in The Palms, and loved it! We had everything we needed and ample space to relax and watch TV if we wanted, but we never turned it on. After every day, we truly looked forward to returning to our “home” and relaxing with a glass of wine before bed. They’ve thought of everything – our room was stocked with a mini fridge, microwave, coffee pot, coffee/creamer, and mugs, along with sand towels and a cooler for the day. Downstairs in the shared kitchen, we could use the full space if we wanted to cook, though we preferred to eat out every day. I DID, however, enjoy the coffee my husband poured for me from the shared kitchen every morning so it saved us time from me making my own since I’d been sleeping in every day. Both Suzann and Tyler were excellent at advising us on areas of the island to visit based on our likes. We like to hike, so they recommended Mt. Pirata which is the highest point on Vieques at almost 1,000 feet. It recently opened to the public, so we HAD to hike that. It was steep but paved the entire way, and the observation deck at the top allowed us a beautiful view out to the mainland of Puerto Rico and other islands, with a couple of benches for resting under a mango tree. Esperanza Inn is nicely located less than a block off of the Malecon, making it super easy to leave your vehicle and walk to several restaurants, bars, and a beach. It’s also only about a 5-minute walk to where the bioluminescent tours depart! Be sure to check out the sunset from the top of El Blok which is at the opposite end of the Malecon, but still only about 5 minutes to walk there. We did use our rented vehicle every day though as we ventured around the island to see several beaches, the rum distillery, the Arepas Festival in Isabela, the 400-year-old Ceiba tree, Mosquito Pier, the bunkers, and other sites. I highly recommend renting a 4-wheel drive. We rented an SUV, but it was a Kia Soul and really wasn’t conducive to the type of terrain on Vieques. When we travel there again, we will rent a Jeep or Bronco for a nicer ride to the beaches off the beaten path and to the Sugar Mill Ruins and the archeological site. We will absolutely stay at Esperanza Inn again and look forward to seeing Suzann, Tyler, and Pebble whom we all thank for helping us create such a nice anniversary trip!

Great location, very friendly and helpful. Gave great tips of what to see. Room was good size and clean. Properly was very nice.

Our family of five spent the week between Christmas and New Years at the Esperanza Inn and had a wonderful time. The location is great, close to the restaurants and shops but back enough to be quiet. Tyler and Suzanne are wonderful hosts. The place is beautiful and all of the little extras are thought of. We highly recommend the Esperanza Inn.
