The art deco family compound has been transformed into a premiere boutique villa by the Washington, D.C. based firm Hollis Leland Design. The seaside residence is situated on three levels cascading to the water's edge, and features two three bedroom suites with private terraces, separate one bedroom suite, and a dramatic swimming pool with panoramic views. The unique location provides the convenience of in-town living combined with complete privacy and an exceptional oceanfront setting.

The professionally designed interior and exterior spaces include custom concrete counters inlaid with sea glass, nautilus shells and natural stones, fine woodwork, beautiful furnishings and accessories, and a notable art collection built around the Vieques School of painters and sculptors.

The seaside pool with its charcoal stained walls and multi-level coral colored stone detailing provides a refreshing and panoramic haven for all guests.

A rear courtyard with street entrance includes an outdoor shower, laundry facilities, gas grille, and access to each unit's private rear entrance.

The unique and gracious, multi-level indoor and outdoor spaces of Villa Uno accommodate everything from a sunset cocktail soiree, or intimate dinner party, to large buffet receptions. Villa Uno will gladly recommend catering services through complete detailing of receptions at any level to make every event remarkably memorable

Situated on the water's edge in the town of Isabel Segunda, the location offers a variety of dining experiences, including delivery to Villa Uno's poolside. Nearby, there are specialty shops and convenience stores, a full-service grocery and Buen Provecho, purveyor of organics and fine foods. Black Beard Sports and Dive Shop, http://blackbeardsports.com, and the island's premier art gallery, Siddhia Hutchinson Fine Art Design Studio and Gallery, www.siddhiahutchinson.com, are also just a few blocks away.

We are looking initially for a property that will accommodate the three of us along with a few friends for a 60th birthday celebration in June of 2011. Otherwise we are completely flexible about exchanges for like/kind properties.

Open to any dates

For travel, we enjoy major cities around the world, historic and contemporary architecture, museums for fine and decorative arts, and music. As for relaxation, we are fond of the sun and surf, local cuisines, and plentiful beverages.

We are three professionals living in Washington, D.C. involved in the fields of architecture, interior design and finance. Villa Uno Vieques is our first property in the Caribbean. During the three year renovation of this oceanfront family compound, we came to love Vieques for its natural beauty, expansive pristine protected beaches and quiet sophisticated charm.
