Dana and Gary where awesome. Dana was more than helpful to help find our way in the Island. Gary was allways there if we need anything.... More

Beautifully decorated and clean rooms, nice pool, helpful staff. But most importantly, the owner - Dana - was always available to help us whenever needed. In an island with very little infrastructure, this is not a small thing. We stayed in Vieques during a busy long weekend in February 2012 and couldn't find a rental car in the island, even... More

The Great Escape is a gem on a magical island. We stayed two nights in February of 2011 and had the place to ourselves with the exception of one other couple. The property sits on top of a hill that offers stunning views of the island, oceans, as well as the colorful property itself, replete with a pool, hammocks and... More

My family and I stayed at Great Escape for 3 days during the dates of December 9-11, 2012. We rented the 3 bedroom suite villa and it was 6 of us. We absolutely loved the place. This location is away from the hotels and away from anyone. The way to relax and to enjoy a real vacation with the family... More

This is a homey, kinda funky guest house in the Vieques countryside. Each room is furnished differently. Some rooms have ocean views, others have countryside views. If you are a light sleeper, ask for a room on the side away from the parking lot. Our room was clean, comfortable and had a nice balcony. Danuta, the lady who runs the... More

Great Escape is a good compromise for people who want something clean, peaceful and attractive, but who don't mind a few quirks. You will find the great mixed with the not-so-great here, and as long as you're relaxed about it you'll love the place. For example, the tiles on our floors were absolutely beautiful and expensive looking. But our incredibly... More

There is normally a two night minimum but our reservation fell in between two others, Dana allowed us to stay for one night. This hotel is located on Route 201 with handwritten signs pointing out the hotel. Be sure to keep a close eye for the signs. The driveway is very steep and uneven dirt path so you will probably...

In quality accomodation starved Vieques, this is one of the better places to stay. Located on top of a hll with almost constant trade winds, this B&B is 15 minutes (and $5 per person via publicos) away from the ferry terminal. Terrific fixtures, modern decor, a pool with views of the island and the ocean in the distance make this... More

We stayed at the Great Escape for 4 nights and LOVED it. We were enchanted with the place from the moment we got there. We arrived at 10PM and Dana - the owner, was waiting for us. We were offered cold drinks and were introduced to the other guests that were on the terrace . The room was amazing for... More
