Houses for Rent
Casa de Amistad also owns Casa Santiago. This property is located in the barrio Bravos de Boston on the North Shore of Vieques. Please check out our house option.
Casa Santiago, owned and managed by the folks at Casa de Amistad, fully furnished small 3 bedroom house with two queen sized beds and one full sized bed, is located just 1/2 block from La Chata Beach in Barrio Bravos de Boston (one of the nicest residential neighborhoods on the island). This house has just been newly remodelled with new Saltillo tile, a beautiful new kitchen, new living space, washer and dryer, all new windows and doors, and air conditioning. It is a great house for a great price. Includes a key to the amenities of Casa de Amistad Guesthouse (ie. pool and courtyard) located just a mile a way. Although three bedrooms, it is a small cottage and is comfortable for 4 people.

We designed our own leaf pattern for the rejas entry gate to Casa Santiago... a perfect spot to watch horses, roosters, and an occasional neighbor walking down this quiet friendly street.
The back of the house boasts a new screened in porch (a must for the tropics... no rental unit should be without one!)
Tradewinds are always blowing gently through this part of the island.
Not a wasted inch of space in this house...
All rooms open to the central living & dining core of the house which has tall french doors at either end.
Ernesto Pena, a local craftsman, built our imbulia wood free-floating kitchen cabinets... everything's off the floor! (Great for cleaning!)
Dan's father painted the painting "Vigil for Owen" which hangs above the queen size bed in a room designed around the painting... (ask Owen to tell you the great story behind the painting!)
A piece of Haitian art that we bought in the rain forest of el Yunque (on the main island) sets the color theme for this bedroom with a queen size bed. All the rooms are very simply designed with a minimum of furniture or clutter.
...A peek into the third and smallest bedroom which has a double bed in it. All floors in the house are Mexican hand-made saltillo tiles. (It's thought to be good luck if you can find a chicken print or a dog paw print in one of the tiles) ...See if you can find the good luck tile in this house!
...Just in case of a tropical rainburst (they usually are short- lived and followed by an abundance of sun) bring along a few new DVD's to watch on the little DVD player in the living room. Oh, there's a CD player and radio, as well.
(Here's what you'll find outside of the living room french doors.)
...And through the other french doors...
Casa Santiago is a great place to begin and end your day. But the best part of your stay will be the exploration of this great little island which still holds on to its charm and unspoiled natural beauty from what seems like another place in time... You'll leave changed!
La Chata Beach is only 1/2 block from Casa Santiago House. Enjoy the sun, surf, great snorkeling during the day, and the calm lapping of the waves at night.
