"When you arrive, Barkley, the resident sheepdog may greet you The entire staff here makes you feel right at home with a "run of the house" feeling. Absolutely fantastic!"

C. Wagner, Jerusalem, Israel:
"This place is paradise. From the moment my family and I walked in the entrance, it was love at first site. We loved everything about the place. The staff is most friendly and helpful. If you want a vacation of a lifetime, go to Vieques and only stay at Hacienda Tamarindo. We checked all the other inns and this one has them beat-hands down."

Juan Carlos Suarez, Rio Piedras, PR:
"This is one of the best mini-vacations I've had. The Hacienda Tamarindo was fantastic. The view of the ocean and the natural setting was incredible. The rooms were clean, comfortable and nicely decorated. The service was great and breakfast was delicious. We had a wonderful time."

Natalie Hescock, Jersey City, NJ:
"This is the best B&B hotel I have ever stayed in. The views from the fresh water pool were breath-taking. The efficient and friendly staff made our stay so pleasurable. We got married on Media Luna Beach and keep coming back to paradise."

February 11, 2002:
"The place is beautiful and the people are even better. We have returned every year. The breakfast crew is delightful and the day's special is always an alluring treat. Barkley the sheepdog and Shaboo the parrot conspired to entertain us. Who knew a bird could be a practical joker?"

January 22, 2002:
"My husband and I spent a memorable week at the Hacienda recently. If you want a great cooked to order breakfast and a true sense of Vieques, you cannot go wrong with Hacienda Tamarindo"

Our Splurge Pick: Hacienda Tamarindo

Perched on a hill just high enough to catch the trade wind breezes, and with a stunning 180 degree view of the Caribbean, Hacienda Tamarindo is the best spot to be, from sunrise to sunset. This 16-room inn is beautifully decorated; each room is originally designed and filled with a unique accumulation of art and antiques. But perhaps the most fascinating thing about this intimate-feeling hotel is the ancient Tamarind tree that grows three stories through the center of the building - the owners couldn't bear to cut it down, so they built around it!

Amenities include a tempting fresh water pool, a fully stocked honor bar, and boxed beach lunches upon request. Most rooms have AC, and all have hair dryers, beach chairs and individualized beverage coolers you can bring on your day trips. A delicious and generous breakfast is included daily with your stay. For a true splurge, rent the inn's luxurious private villa, which features its own private outdoor dining room, full kitchen, two bathrooms and porch.

"...everyone and anyone is accommodated here, and hospitality rules. The best complimentary breakfast of any hotel on the island. The warmth and comfort of this place are hard to forget."

Hideaways 2007
"Vieques is almost discovered, and the Hacienda Tamarindo is the best B&B inn on the island. The staff was great. For a fascinating, laid-back "time warp," go to Vieques."

THE MIAMI HERALD

"delightful 16 room property, known for its impressive art collection and stunning swimming pool."

GOURMET MAGAZINE
February 2005
"really does have the air of an old, lived-in farmstead-tiny balconies, individually designed rooms, a green parrot that whistles at ladies, and breakfast served under the tamarind tree-that has thrown its doors open to wayfaring guests."

CONDE NAST TRAVELER
"The Hacienda Tamarindo, a charming oceanfront Inn, has a youthful clientele & a terrific (breakfast) restaurant"

CARIBBEAN TRAVEL & LIFE
"...highly recommended is the brightly eclectic Hacienda Tamarindo, where decor ranges from kaleidoscopically stone-faced masks to grape and cherub-gilded mirrors. Rise early to grab the best breakfast seat in the house-- under the spreading tamarind tree--that gives this laid-back property it's name."

RUM & REGGAE’S
GUIDE TO PUERTO RICO
“We adore the Hacienda Tamarindo, a 16-room Spanish style inn set on breezy rising grounds with sweeping views of sloping pastures and the Caribbean. The Vails are a very amiable and hospitable couple, and their friendly and helpful style as innkeepers is one of the great things about the Hacienda. With it, they’ve created an extraordinarily comfortable and warm environment."
