"Perched on a lush hilltop in the center of Vieques, Finca Victoria is a modern retreat intimately intertwined with nature. This 14-room boutique hotel offers accommodations ranging from tree houses and cabins to a vintage airstream, all with a healthy dose of breezy Caribbean style and available for short stays or longer ayurvedic retreat experiences. This property made T+L's list of the best new hotels in the world the year it debuted." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"Features unique cabins, treehouses, or guesthouses amidst the lush vegetation of the island's interior." - Travel + Leisure Editors
"It isn't a long drive from the hangar-cum-airport in Vieques, a tropical speck of an island off the east coast of Puerto Rico surrounded by teals, turquoises, and blues, to the stylish guesthouses at Finca Victoria. But wild horses often cross the narrow hillside road, and I had to stop several times to let them pass. By the time I arrived, I had missed breakfast. Luckily, Sylvia De Marco, Finca Victoria's friendly owner, had set a place for me in the alfresco vegan kitchen: Inside a Taíno bowl, a carved wooden vessel named after Puerto Rico's original Indigenous inhabitants, who were known for cultivating a variety of root vegetables, I found mashed pumpkin and malanga topped with caviar lentils cooked in cinnamon broth, avocado wedges, and cilantro grown on the property."
"In Vieques, head to Finca Victoria, where I always stay and where I send New Yorkers. It’s owned by the same people as La Botánica, so it’s Ayurvedic and vegetarian as well. You can take several-day detox programs, or just get massages or do yoga by the pool."
"Finca Victoria features all of the accoutrements for a holistic holiday: morning yoga, a vegan kitchen and a wellness center dedicated to Ayurvedic principles. The bustle of San Juan , and the main island of Puerto Rico, seem to be a world away at this hill-top retreat in Vieques, Puerto Rico’s “little sister” off the main island’s east coast. It’s a verdant retreat for reflection, where the views are expansive during the day and alive with the cosmos at night. The surrounding gardens are not only for aesthetics; they purvey the vegan kitchen and provide for the natural products used in the wellness center. In addition to maintaining a natural green environment and running a plant-based kitchen, Finca Victoria runs on solar power, uses recycled water, and operates with the aim to eventually become completely eco-sustainable and as close to zero-impact on the environment as possible." - Kathleen Squires
