Relax in Puerto Rico

This trip was basically about relaxing on the beach, so there is very little information on what to do outside the resort I stayed in, except for the rainforst (El Yunque), which is visible from the hotel. This resort has everything you could possibly imagine, from fine beachs to pools to a casino to a golf course. More information inside.

Best Way To Get Around:

The resort has an airport shuttle (about a 30-45 minute ride to San Juan airport) for a fee.

This is the ultimate in a vacation experience. I stayed at what they call the "Villas" section. This is not villas, but basically condos. I had a full 1-bedroom apartment on the top floor, complete with an ocean-view balcony, dining area and full kitchen (fridge, stove, oven, microwave, utensils). The Villas has two pools that are separate from the main hotel, and a stretch of beach that is all its own. The beach is wide and the hotel goes a good job keaping it clean. The water is warm and shallow. There is a full gym in the main hotel, just a few minutes walk from the Villas. The resort has a golf course and a casino. There's a separate restaurant at the Villas section, but you can dine at the main hotel. There is alsoa little "country store" where you can buy things like eggs and muffins if you want to cook for yourself.

As you drive up the mountain, you enter a lush and tropical rainforest. You'll see waterfalls, lush vegitation, wild flowers and clouds. There are walking trails through the rainforest for those that like hiking.
