I suggest you rent a place in town and take the publico to the beach. ($3 each way) Try Villa Boheme, Casa Ensenada...there are many places to choose from. You will be in walking distance to the resta

Villa Fulladoza is a great place and in your price range. My wife and I stayed there on our honeymoon and have been back three times since. Villa Boheme is also worth checking out. Both of these pl

In its wisdom, Culebra has only had a minimal amount of actual "on the beach" lodging built. The two beaches with lodging are Tamarindo and Flamenco. Tamarindo Beach Cottages on the former and Culeb

is Balcones de Melones the same as Villa Melones? if it is a stunning view, great decks, but you'll soon tire of that last hill (a struggle with a jeep in 1st gear)

other side of the island Villa Melones and its adjoining apt. has a fantastic deck, dip pool and killer sunsets (but no beach).

Hey Vanessa, For that length of time a car won't be necessary. The publico to and from Flamenco Beach is $2/person. The 3 main shopping places are right in town, Milka, El Eden, and Maya. As for

Casa Robinson is going to be much more modern than Harbour View Villas. HVV - kitchens are outdoors - kind of hard to explain, but it's very rustic. You will need a car or scooter at either of these

Melones Point is a far walk from town. I don't know where this villa is in relation, but a car for a couple of days wouldn't be a bad idea if you want to see the island, especially to go to Flamenco.
