The Place

If you're looking for an escape to a tropical paradise in the North Atlantic where you can find a great hotel Puerto Rico has you covered. Swim in the bay at Vieques, go surfing or whale-watching in Rincon, or put your dancing shoes on in Ponce and discover your new-found love for Salsa. While visiting Puerto Rico travel to San Juan, one of Puerto Rico's best preserved colonial cities in the Americas and live la vida loca as you set time aside to sample the many fine types of Puerto Rican rum.
