Top 10 Bed and Breakfast Inns in Isla El Gran Roque, Venezuela
The only real village and most of the population of the Los Roques National Park archipelago reside on its largest island, El Gran Roque. Visitors typically stay in converted fisherman's homes called posadas – which include meals in their rates – while indulging in the top-notch local scuba diving. The island itself is dotted with cacti and mangroves. A lighthouse erected in the late 1800s provides gorgeous views of the three western lagoons, particularly at sunset.

Reviewed By Per NMario with his team made our visit to Grand Rouques a memorial of life. The rooms were homely and equipped with air conditioning and the food was delicious. You can not get closer to paradise than this. Great places to explore around the Grand Rouques. Many nice memories from the different islands. Put this at "the bucket list"

Perfect simplicity!
Reviewed By DragonFlyer2014At arrival our hosts were warm and accommodating, the room beds were masonry with a mattress on top and unexpectedly comfortable. The backyard is the beach and a very flat and blue ocean with lots of wooden boats painted in bright colors. Walk straight from the beach into the in with sandy feet and wet bathing suite and it's ok. Food was fresh from the ocean and delicious The hosts arranged day trips to one of the 365 islands they say encompass the archipelago's system. Los toques is by far one of the most unique and beautiful places in the world and staying in a posada like this one is part of its beauty, clearly reflects the simplicity of this pristine location.

All the staff, the room, the food was delicious (not only the one in the posada but also the food that the gave to us everyday to take with us to the beach).

5th anniversary
Reviewed By Daniela VMy husband and I stayed at Posada Va pensiero for 2 nights and 3 days. We are really disappointed with this place. When we give an opinion about a place we keep in main the following 3 factors: Food, services and Rooms/Common places. Lunch food was simply terrible: Rice with vegetables and pasta with tomato that's it, for this reason, we bought additional food all days. Additionally, all dinners were awkward because this place have just one table for all guests. And well I wished a privated moment with my husband and I couldn't. In the othe hand, Saul and Royer are extremely kind people, we loved chatting with them. Finally, related with rooms and common places. The room was very small and dark, additionally has water leaks. And the bathroom didin't have hot water. In general is not a very nice place, is more like a "boardinghouse" or hostal.
7. Posada Caracol
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 177 reviews
Posada Caracol was born from the synthesis between respect from the uncontaminated archipelago of Los Roques and the desire of privacy of its guests. A wise restructuring activity preserved the original structure, obtaining four rooms furnished with taste, embellished by selected particulars.
Nothing special
Reviewed By tobiberlin87The breakfast was ok, together with the view and the flair of the island, it is a pleasure to remember. However, if you booked and paid for an excursion including food, it quickly turned from $60 to $100 without food. This should cost another $30 per person. So it would have been $160 for a day trip. We then decided to take a box for food for one person. This was a good thing, because the box contained nothing but a piece of fruit, soggy bread and a Coke. The umbrellas that were set up on the beach were too small and broken. The dinner we booked was very nicely prepared and the service of the waiters was fine. Unfortunately, the quality of the dinner itself was not very good. On the whole, we would not book here again.

Reviewed By Ing Damaso PSmall lodge in The Roques. Plenty of water and good air conditioning. Provides boat service to two of the close islands. A good option i recommend is to hire a local fisherman and go to the non comercial islands .Snorkeling and fishing is a must.

Backpacker hostel at best!
Reviewed By 255097IntegrityThis property was sold to us for 3 nights by Magic Tours as " Lodges of the highest and best quolity and services in Los Roques." When we arrived at Los Roques we were not met at the airport. The unfriendly receptionist at the Tropicana said she had no idea when we were arriving, what scale of accomodation we had booked and advised us to pay the porter US$10 for pushing our bags 100 mtrs to the Posada! She served us cold coffee. She told us the posada didn't have the internet, and we later observed her working on same in the office before the power went out. The room provided was so small we couldn't fit 2 bags on the floor. The bathroom was so tiny it allowed only the use of either the toilet or the shower (which had no water pressure and only 6 holes running out of a rusty spray!) There was no effective screening on the windows, the power went out early evening, so there was no light and no fan. It was extremely hot and humid weather. The room was filled with midges and we have only recently recovered from the bites. We contacted Magic Tours agent who was totally uninterested in our dilemma.. were on holiday - ..so we moved the next morning. Magic Tours has still not replied to our requests for compensation. Beware!!
