We stayed in Loft 1 in the Casa Rodonda in early July, 2008. We had peaceful time and I cannot complain about anything. Our view overlooked trees and the ocean in the distance. The only thing that obstructed our view was the numerous humming birds buzzing in and out the flowering tree that framed the huge open window. The outside... more

As many have said previously, it's a fantastic place. It's very much a matter of taste, no doubt that Hix is not your standard hotel experience. So I understand why some may find it not to their liking, but if you have a proper understanding of what you're getting, then then disappointments shouldn't be an issue. I've tried to add... more

We spent a week at this most unusal and pleasant hotel on a most unusual and pleasant island. The accomadations are suburb, the "lofts" and designed for the utmost privacy and the unique architecture only adds to the delightful ambiance. Go and swim in the early morning and late afternoon in their magnificant and, again, unusual pool. A well stocked... more

Definately give this place a try! It's a perfect escape from everything. Located in the mountains, but only 10 min from Esperanza and 10-15 min from the beaches, Hix Island House is the most unique place you'll ever sleep. The open air rooms (and outdoor shower!) instantly calm you. You can sit for hours, admiring the natural beauty of the... more

When we booked our 7 night stay at Hix House, I read most if not all of the reviews posted on this site. I was pleased to find them overwhelmingly positive, but admit I was a bit nervous about the 'oneness with nature' aspect, if you will. I am not a fan of bugs and spiders, despite being an outdoor... more

We have stayed at the Hix House 3 times over the past 5 years, and it is a wonderful experience. Architecturally, it is beautiful. Conceptually, it is a great Caribbean experience. It is off the beaten track, quiet, secluded, surrounded by tropical flowers and trees. It is open-air (no glass or screens) with enormous panoramic picture window openings. There is... more

We visited Hix Island House for 10 days in April. We stayed in Matisse, which was beautiful, we really liked the roof top deck. As other reviewers have said, the staff was all helpful, the fresh bread, eggs and coffee a great addition to our stay. We relaxed, did not miss TV or telephones. Luxury camping is a great description.... more

My wife and I took a quick trip from New York to Vieques in May and stayed in the Hix House. In past trips to the Caribbean we had stayed mainly in very nice resorts like Caneel Bay in USVI, but this time we were looking for something less expensive, but still not like a big overblown resort. Hix Island... more

Hix Island House, Vieques: My wife and I have just returned from what we consider our best vacation – ever. Not enough superlatives to describe Hix Island House and Vieques. The accommodation was perfect for the ultimate getaway. No television, no noise, no windows even - just beautiful and tranquil surroundings and a chance to get away from the maddening... more
