The ultimate island sanctuary, Martineau Bay Resort & Spa is situated eight miles off the eastern coast of Puerto Rico on Vieques Island's north shore. Overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, this plantation-style resort offers world-class service, and timeless elegance. Relaxation is our theme. Our large pool provides two levels of recreational enjoyment, with the upper pool level offering two infinity edges and a swim-up bar. A pale coral-stone sundeck surrounding the pool is furnished with lounge chairs and umbrellas. Wood stairways lead down a 10-foot bluff where our two intimate beaches provide swimming and sunbathing opportunities as well as views of Culebra island and the main Puerto Rico island. We offer 138 extra large guest rooms, including 20 villa suites, spread across 17 two- and three-story buildings. These Spanish-style guest rooms measure at least 600 square feet and include patios or balconies with teak furniture and ocean views, spacious bathrooms, and terra-cotta tile floors. Wood-paddle ceiling fans and louvered sliding patio/balcony doors allow the fresh breezes to cool your room. Composed of three air-conditioned buildings around a central fountain, our 5,000 square-foot health and beauty spa consists of a complimentary sea-view fitness center and a beauty salon. The fitness center is equipped with cardio and weight machines, as well as free weights. The beauty salon offers complimentary men's and women's four-person spa tubs, steam rooms, and saunas. A series of treatment rooms (some with sea views) are also available, including a wet-treatment room with private outdoor shower. Play on the resort's two complimentary tennis courts. Snorkeling gear, kayaks, and windsurfers can be rented at the resort, and after-dark tours of bioluminescent Mosquito Bay can be booked. Numerous other recreational activities are available nearby as well, including horseback riding, jeep rentals, mountain biking, fly-fishing, deep-sea fishing, snorkeling, sail boating, kayaking, and shopping. World-famous Mosquito Bay, with its magical, bioluminescent waters, is just six miles away.
