With just 22 rooms El Blok strikingly modern aesthetic pared down simplicity uncompromising comfort and contemporary Puerto Rican atmosphere make it a very personal Caribbean find. Award winning architecture by San Juan based Fuster plus Partners and a low environmental impact philosophy form a hotel that is a lesson in the duality of design. Part sculpture and part contemporary tropical oasis upon first glance El Blok does not seem logical. But take a step inside and what you thought at first made no sense at all will make you change the way you thought about beach hotels. The structure itself is both a foreboding brutalist accomplishment and and an ode to the fluidity and motion of the sea just outside our door. Inspired by the coral reefs that surround Vieques patterns of natural light and fresh air play and dance across the space and conjure up ethereal feelings of being under water and in the atmosphere all at once. The lack of hard angles and straight lines evoke a soft feminine feel while the reinforced concrete and perforated panels provide protection and seclusion against the outside world. El Blok is separate from and very much a part of its immediate surroundings all at once. All rooms feature Private Balconies or decks with either water or pastoral views Magnaflex Memory Foam Mattress peak-a-boo showers with rainfall shower heads in room safes mini-chill fridge open clothing storage and work space. Rooms do not have telephones televisions or rollaway bedding. El Blok cannot accommodate guests under the age of 18. Pets are welcome with a non-refundable USD150 deposit. Helmed by Executive Chef Carlos Perez El Blok restaurant is open 7 days a week for Breakfast Lunch and Dinner. Roof top and Late Night Dining available in peak seasons.Property Location
