About this property

Palm Cottages - The Palm Cottage - LUSH TROPICAL OASIS

Summary:
The Palm Cottage is one of the Vieques vacation rental cottages at the residential compound that was formerly a church, its rectory, and several small out buildings.  The property has been completely renovated and all new as of Summer 2019.


PROPERTY LOCATED IN VIEQUES WHICH IS AN ISLAND OFF PUERTO RICO WHICH REQUIRES TRAVEL BY FERRY OR FLIGHT FROM THE MAIN ISLAND OF PUERTO RICO.

The Space:
The Palm Cottage at the Palm Cottages, on the North Shore of Vieques Island in the beach side neighborhood of Bravos de Boston, is one of the Vieques vacation rental cottages at the residential compound that was formerly a church, its rectory, and several small out buildings.  The property has been completely renovated and all new as of Summer 2019. The Palm and Pool Cottages can be rented together or separately. This means that if you are only renting one the other one may be occupied by another group with which you will share the pool.

Located in the heart of the lovely Vieques Garden District, the cottages are surrounded by exceptional tropical gardens designed and maintained by the well-known Bravos Boyz whose offices are also located in the old church building. Ever popular La Chata Beach is a one minute stroll down the road and is a Bravos Boyz favorite for a morning swim, beach combing for sea glass or watching the surfers catch that perfect wave.


The Palm Cottage was the former pastor's house and has been beautifully restored and updated. This rental house offers three bedrooms and two bathrooms making it ideal for two couples or a family. All have queen-sized beds with quality linens, air conditioning if desired and tropical garden views. The Palm Cottage lives open and airy with vaulted ceilings and ceiling fans with almost constant Trade Winds and the sound of surf crashing.


The Palm Cottage shares a beautifully landscaped, pool with an artful fountain with the Pool Cottage across the way. There is also a private screened outdoor living room called the folly which is a great place to lay and read or play cards and enjoy the beautiful garden setting. The Folly is designated only for the use of Palm Cottage. The tropical oasis and landscaped grounds create your own private sanctuary.


Both cottages offer high quality thread count bed linens as well as fresh white towels and bright colorful beach towels. The upholstered furniture is very comfortable as well as offering a smart tv with streaming apps and high speed wireless internet.


Additionally, we offer you washer and dryer as well as beach chairs and coolers so that you can stay in a Bravos Boyz house and only need to bring flip flops, a sarong and a bathing suit.


One of the delights our customers regularly comment on are the many tropical plantings the first of which are 30 foot Puerto Rican Royal Palms that Thom planted from seed around 2003. Additionally, there are Areca palms, Mac Arthur palms, Adorneidia palms, Figi Fan palms, Travelers palms, Coconut palms, philodendrums, orchids, scented Ylang Ylang and spider lilies, hibiscus, blooming bromeliads, bananas, pink, white, and red ginger, heliconias, colorful crotons, various ferns, herbs and many other surprises including, night sounds and visiting Iguanas.

Fabulous family house

We have been to Vieques a few times and LOVE it. The Palm Cottages were a great location and walking distance to a beach where we found a lot of sea glass. The house was clean, comfortable, and cute. The beds were comfortable and we had adequate supplies for all of our needs. It was really convenient to rent a vehicle from Bravos Boyz as well.This is a destination we will return to in the future!

Summer Vacation

We enjoyed our stay in the Palm Cottage. The property was beautifully maintained and we were provided with chairs and towels to enjoy Vieques’ beautiful beaches. The owners also rented us a Jeep. They also sent Victor to pick us up at the airport and he assisted us several times while we were there.

Fantastic Stay in Vieques

Amazing home! Our family of 4 loved our stay at this property. The house was immaculate, the pool, the casita and outdoor shower all made for a fantastic stay. The team was super responsive and we were also able to rent a vehicle through Bravo Boyz which made our time in Vieques super smooth.Highly recommend and definitely will be back!

End of Winter Trip

We first stayed at this property in 2009. It was perfect then and it still is! We enjoyed warm mornings sitting by the pool, drinking coffee, and listening to the breeze blow the palm trees. We also loved the outdoor shower, the third bedroom, and Thom's pups. Just perfect!

Well-appointed cottage

Everything was clean and worked well. Property manager was responsive and gave good advice. Shared pool was clean and refreshing. There are roosters in the area, which crow in the night.

Island Gem

Veiques is a special place to visit, and the bravos boyz accommodations made for a perfect HQ during our stay. Clean, safe, secure and beautiful. This property is meticulously maintained with detailed landscaping and a great vibe. The place is super comfortable, well decorated and had everything we wanted and more. There is an office on site that is used during the day, and a second apt that is on the property. This made us feel very comfortable knowing that other likeminded guests were around. There is so much to do on the island if you enjoy the outdoors, so coming home to a comfortable spot really enhances the trip! Our hosts were a wealth of knowledge and have very deep ties to the island for many years. I really enjoyed our conversations with Thom and all the insider knowledge. We will definitely stay again on our next visit to the island.

Wonderful place, kind hosts, clean and everything we wanted

A beautiful cottage. The beach nearby is good, the neighborhood is quiet, the number of frogs singing at night is incredible and the gardens are beautiful. The pool was clean as were the lodgings. There was no AC, just fans, for main living area and kitchen and since we cooked meals, it got somewhat warm inside... thankfully we aren't overly heat-sensitive and between the fans and the AC from the bedrooms it was fine. A weird thing- the fan above dining table has a light above it so there is a strobe effect when both are on... annoying so one of them was kept off... One room is separate, and you need to walk 20 steps outside to get from it to the rest of the cottage. The bathroom has an outside entrance just for this purpose and we didn't mind at all, in fact we enjoyed the extra privacy from the rest of the family. Note: it's not toddler-friendly: you'll need to tuck away those tall wobbly designer vases (I even almost knocked one over), keep him off the glass TV table, hide the under-sink cleaning supplies from open view, etc... It was unclear that this cottage is not the only one on site- another family took the lower cottage which has dibs on the poolside outdoor lounge area. This, however, was not a problem for us- just unexpected. All-in-all a great place and we would stay again.

Can’t Wait to Return

The property was excellent - we loved the privacy and the pool. It was the perfect place for our family of five (three teenagers ages 13, 16, and 18). We rented a Jeep and explored during the day, and we appreciated having a relaxing place to return to at the end of the day. We look forward to returning within the next year or two!

Truly Special

If you're looking to experience Vieques' unique charms, Bravos Boyz's guest cottages are an excellent choice for accommodation. Superior to the photos, Thom and Kevin have created a beautiful, fully-equipped, properly maintained, well located and friendly place to stay.
