When I visited in March 2012, Alta Vista was on the market for sale so I'm unsure how everything is now. At the time, Alta Vista was able to put me up the same day when Bananas lost my reservation. Alta Vista was also at least $15 cheaper per night than other Esperanza lodging. Since I was solo, I stayed... More

Pros: The room was clean and the air conditioning worked well, which REALLY makes a difference to sleep quality. Bed was comfortable, pillows were adequate. Location is great--far enough from the action in Esperanza for it to be quiet, but definitely close enough to walk to and from restaurants and bars. Rooftop patio is an awesome place to sit and...

The hotel was a good location, budget price, and fairly clean. Don't expect a high-dollar type facility if staying here. Interesting note: We rented several rooms and discovered that our hotel key actually opened up the other rooms. Good thing the entire area is generally safe. We loved the island and will definitely return. Bars and restaurants are about a... More

We stayed here for three nights over our stay on Vieques. Mark is a great host. He gave us great advice on what to do on the island, where to eat, where the stores are, and gave us chairs and an umbrella to use on the beach. Our room was nothing special - it was on the interior so it... More

If I could give this "guest house" zero stars I would. I am really surprised that it recently got an "excellent" rating, but I also wouldn't be surprised if the owner and/or his friends write reviews because there is NO WAY that this place should have such a high rating. I am not a picky person, I stay in hostels... More

Stayed for two nights. Mark, the owner, was extremely helpful. We had no reservations, but he had a room ready in minutes. This place is by far the best bang for your Buck. It's a short walk from the Esperanza beach strip, it has all the amenities you will ever need, plus I loved the breeze on the third floor... More

We stayed here for two nights while we visited Vieques. We liked staying in Esperanza because that’s where the bio bay tours leave from and also if you’re into a seeking out a little drinking fun this is the town (and Lazy Jacks is the place)! Mark (the owner) is the reason you want to stay here! However, he is... More

Just returned from a month on Vieques. We travel the Caribbean 2 or 3 times a year, and this is still our preferred vacation. The hotel is clean, comfortable and also affordable. The owner, Mark, is knowledgeable and more than helpful. We stayed 4 weeks and used room #6 (the "Apartment") which is a full home unit. The location is... More

We stayed three nights at Casa Alta Vista in February. The location is great. You can walk to some of the beaches, and the rest are a very short drive. Restaurants and bars a few minutes walking. The owner Mark goes above and beyond to take care of you. At this price, it's a very good option.
