The design of the hotel was really cool. The view from the roof was amazing. The food at the restaurant and the drinks at the rooftop bar were horrible and overpriced. Some of the staff were nice, but overall not very welcoming.

We stayed for one night before we checked into our villa for our wedding. It was good for the most part, except the elevator being out of order and them putting us on that floor where it didn’t work. Three nights later we came to visit some friends who were here for our wedding and staying at El Blok. The lady at the hostess stand threatened to kick our friend out of the hotel if we went up to her room and saw it briefly. She was incredibly rude to us and our friend, despite us being the reason 6 people stayed there for almost a week. After that treatment, we won’t be back. I’d recommend checking out any of the dozens of other options that are just as nice and will treat you with kindness and respect. Casa de Amistad is a better option. El Blok is not it.

Best hotel on the island. Keep in mind only the hotel rooms are air conditioned. They are strict with can’t check in any time before 4 and much be out not later than 12. Transportation is very limited on Sundays and Monday (not sure about other days because we were only there those 2 days). Bar, restaurant and rooftop service is also very limited. But Sunday Funday after 6 was extremely nice. Prefect for sunset, great music and really good strong drinks. They had elevator issues so we had to use the stairs a lot which was a huge inconvenience.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful rooftop bar w hot tub. It's location is prime to the beach, lots of food different food options, and transportation options. The restaurant in the hotel was also excellent. Was able to rent an atv and explore about 5 different beaches on the island, and make it to the Crab Rum distillery on just a half tank of gas.

Very nice staff. Rooms are basic but well designed. Enjoyed the balcony. Complimentary morning coffee and water filling station on second floor. The rooftop is beautiful and open 24 hrs, even when the bar is closed up there. Walkable to many restaurants and bars. Can hear some of the street noise (or loud car radios) from our room but we could sleep through it. Would recommend.

Nice hotel but a disappointing experience
We chose this hotel because it received consistently high ratings, had a well-regarded restaurant in-house and was conveniently located for the activities we wanted to do while in Vieques. The location is indeed very convenient. It's right across the street from the pier and beaches and our tour operators picked us up right in front of the hotel. It was also in very good condition andthe views from the rooftop terrace amazing. The less-than-great parts were that the restaurant hotel, which we really needed given the variability in local food options, was closed the entire time we stayed there. The restaurant and rooftop bar are only open Thursday through Monday, and there is no breakfast food or beverages of any kind on site other than water and ok coffee on the morning. Our primary disappointment about our stay was the attitude of the front desk staff, who to a person acted like we were inconveniencing them from the time we checked in until we left. It is for this reason alone that w will stay somewhere else the next time we visit Vieques. I guess the digital bracelet room keys were novel.
