This was an amazing experience. An open suite on an open area. I loved seeing the horses and sharing nature with them. I also love that the hosts/staff/management will keep in touch with you as you’ll probably be too busy enjoying the island life to keep in touch with them. They keep you updated, ask if you need anything, and are great with accommodations. 10/10 stay, will be staying here again when I come back!

Highly recommended
The Hix Island House is a gem away from the more “touristy” areas of Vieques. The rooms and grounds are unique and quite beautiful. It rained periodically through our stay but that only enhanced the natural feel of the place.

If you're looking for a relaxing quiet kind of off the grid stay this is for you. We stayed in polaris 4. Beautiful view of the night sky. Used a golf cart to drive from the ferry to the island house and around the island. Borrowed the beach chairs and cooler that they offer which was very convenient. Great time!

Pleasant and Peaceful
We only stayed 2 nights, so I don't think we fully experienced everything this place had to offer, but we really enjoyed our time there. It was very quiet and comfortable. The architecture is very cool, and the way it was designed really did seem to keep the place quite cool even without AC. It was fun to see all the wild horses grazing on the lawn and fall asleep to the noises of the coqui frogs. The showers are sort of indoor/outdoor...covered, but open to the elements. It was a very cool experience to shower while stargazing. Beds were super comfortable. They don't mention breakfast anywhere in their literature, but based on what I read from other guest reviews, I was a little disappointed by the breakfast. I was expecting a variety of tropical fruits, and they only had oranges when we were there. But, regardless, it was nice to be able to eat a quick breakfast right at the hotel and get going with our day. Food options on the island are a bit limited so it would have been a bit inconvenient to have to find a place for breakfast each day. Overall, a very nice experience. I would recommend and consider staying here again if I'm ever lucky enough to get back to Vieques island!

The architecture of the property is stunning. Although knowing we are in the Caribbean mosquitos and lizards, and even spiders I could handle, they provide a mosquito net over bed. However when going to sleep we noticed a giant beetle inside our net. I was not a fan and had to book something else. This was not mentioned and I was offered no refund to my stay.

The property was comfortable enough but is showing signs of age. Front desk and yoga were great! We are last minute travelers and that may be the cause we felt less value for this property.

Hix House has to be one of my favorite stays of all times. The rooms and grounds are beautiful as they are unique. The staff really is the greatest team, that ensured your stay is unforgettable.

We hated this property so much we checked out after one night. We had bugs everywhere and the room was very hot. I've stayed in other eco friendly properties before but this one was way too "economy" for the price. Had to sleep in mosquito nets, they provided only small fans for each side of the bed. The garage type of door was dangerous to operate and if we closed it entirely to keep bugs away, it was too hot. Just not the right property. The area was extremely remote and was difficult to find our actual room. Do not check in off hours because you will likely get lost. The two towns on the island were very run down and service at the restaurants was extremely slow. Will not return.
