We just returned from 4 days on Culebra. We stayed at Playa Flamenco Villas in apt 3-C. The accomodations were sparse but priced as at a full service beach resort elsewhere. We rented from Culebra Vacation Planners. They were very helpful. If I were to go again, I think I would rent in town and travel by rental jeep to the beaches. There is nothing else besides the beach down there. We traveled to town at night for dinner, drinks, music, etc. Everything had to be purchased at the groceries in town--including soap, ice cube trays, soap, cereal bowls, wash cloths, etc. They did provide one bath towel each (for all four days), and bed linens. In addition, the staff there was not at all helpful and have very limited hours of availability. There were loud night time parties at one of the villas and no staff available to enforce the 10:30 PM quiet hours.
The beach is gorgeous. But, at this time there is not an accomodation there I would return to for overnight. During the day---yes. Go. Then, return to a nice place in town for lodging.
