     LAS VACAS BEACH HOUSE AT MOSQUITO BAY

 

 

This beach house was designed for simplicity, low maintenance and to complement the Island environment. The five-acre site is waterfront on reef-protected, secluded Mosquito Bay (known also as Mojito Bay) away from the easterly trade winds with easy access to the beach and boat mooring area a few feet offshore.  A boater’s dream.

This property is located in an area of spectacular waterfront homes on lots consisting of five acres or more - some of the most beautiful new homes on the Island.

 

The Island of Vieques is seen in the distance, as a backdrop to the harbor entrance navigation buoys and the yachts entering Ensenada Honda.

 

The cedar construction offers natural beauty and insulation and is resistant to insects. It does not require paint. The interior features vaulted ceilings and fans to remove the heat and it remains a cool retreat upon returning from a long passage or a fishing trip in contrast to the bright tropical light and reflection of the ocean.

Tree-shaded decks join the main house with the master bedroom.

All of the rooms in the main house, master bedroom and the guest cottage enjoy views and sounds and smells of the gently lapping water on the beach below.

This home nestles into its surroundings amidst gumbo limbo and lignumvitae trees, many of which are hundred of years old. One grows from a stump believed to have been cut by Spanish seamen in the 16th century.

A few steps away is the guest cottage, crafted with a nautical theme.
