PUERTO RICO RETREAT

Have you ever traveled to Puerto Rico? No? Today I will take you on a tour to this hidden beauty. The Urquiola Hotel has been renovated in the past three years. The hotel is located amid the undiscovered beauty and tranquility of Viegues Island, eight miles off the coast of Puerto Rico. This is the second W  Retreat in the world, following the succesful opening of W Retreat & Spa in the Maldives in 2006.










The design of W Vieques is as much inspired by the unique natural phenomena of the island as it is by the contemporary style of W Hotels. Throughout the property there was a meticulous attention to detail and craft, with a combination of locally recycled materials, organic forms, and Urquiola’s renowned and modern Italian furnishings that were created exclusively for W Vieques by B&B Italia, all of which celebrate Vieques’ wild and natural surroundings. I just love the combination of nature combined with the bright coloured furniture.


What do you think of this hotel styling?
