We loved this place! We came during low season (beginning of September '09) and ended up staying an extra night. We would have stayed the whole week if we hadn't already been paid up at a hotel in San Juan. This was just what we were looking for in a vacation. The owners and bartenders were extremely friendly and laid... more

Can't get over the bad reviews for this place. It's $80 a night! What do you expect? I have stayed here twice by myself and both times just fell in love with the place. I'm no longer a backpacker and have stayed at some very nice $400 a night hotels all over the world, but I find motels like the... more

The Trade Winds is right on the Malecon (seawall) in Esperanza, a funky little town with a relaxed vibe. We could only confirm one night because there was a group arriving the next day. Our room was really cute -- trump d'loeil paintings really brightened a space with very little natural light. Happily, there was a cancellation, so we stayed... more

Stayed here for two nights while we visited vieques. This is what i would consider a very authentic island place to stay. Pretty cheap rates not very ammenities but good location. Not much to the rooms a bed and bath and a small fridge that didnt really work all that well. The location is great at the end of the... more

We went with a friend for two nights and the service was very lousy.. Rooms are nice and clean but the ladies managing the place are extremely rude...it really put us off. The location is great, right in front of the beach but lets be honest.. all the hotel in Esperanza are located in front of the beach so I... more

There isn't much to say about this place, as it's really just a simple place for people to stay overnight in between trips to beaches. It's located conveniently on the main street of Esperanza, so you can walk from here to a number of restaurants and Sunbay, which is a decent beach. There's A/C, small refrigerator, and private bath in... more

We have just returned from an 8 day Big Island and Vieques vacation, with 3 nights spent at the "laid back" Tradewinds on the malecon in Esperanza. This 1/4 mile area of guesthouses and restaurants, located on the picturesque public beach, is for anyone looking for clean and simple accommodations ,coupled with great dining choices. The Tradewinds is not fancy;... more

We had a great 3 day stay at the Trade Winds. The owners and staff were super friendly; it's the island, they're all laid back, so deal with it. The location is great, it's across the street from the beginning (or end) of the Malecon (sea wall walk), so it's not too noisy, but still a short walk to the... more

Our stay here was recommened by another couple. We thought the food was prepared very well but the the price of the drinks and meals were spendy. We didn't search out the other cafes in town to see if prices were compariable but if I stayed longer that's what I would do. We were their for only one night. Four... more
