I didn't spend much time in this kitchen, but the fridge is no minibar. It's has enough space to keep a case of Medalla cold, plenty of ice for something stronger at sundown, and it'll keep the fish you pick up from town as fresh as when it was plucked from the ocean. Bonus: the limes you buy for beer make a perfect ceviche. Make it Happen: From $82 per person per night; 2 Bedroom, 2 Bathroom, sleeps 4; $1,785 – $2,450 weekly; Rent it now. | Zach Stovall

The sound of water pouring from the pool's waterfalls dances across the air, and I have to appreciate genius of design that the impenetrable acid-stained concrete floors stretch from the pool all the way inside.

You'll watch the kids pick fresh bananas and limones from the orchard out back, and eat them at family dinners around this table at dusk.

Besides, there will be plenty of time for strict bed times back home. And just maybe, Mrs. Johnson's next appointment will remind you of Vieques.
