Frequently asked questions about hotels in Puerto Rico
What are the best landmarks to visit in Puerto Rico?
For iconic landmarks, you've got Castillo San Felipe del Morro and Castillo San Cristobal in Old San Juan, both magnificent examples of Spanish colonial fortifications. El Yunque National Forest offers stunning rainforest scenery and hiking trails. Then there's the Arecibo Observatory, a fascinating piece of scientific history, though it's currently undergoing repairs.
What are the most popular 2, 3 and 4-star hotels in Puerto Rico?
You'll find luxury resorts, beachside hotels, guest houses, bed and breakfasts, hostels--essentially something for everyone and every budget! Many hotels have a pool and you won't have to look far to find a great hotel or resort backing onto a beach.
What are some must-do activities in Puerto Rico?
Exploring Old San Juan's cobblestone streets and colourful buildings is a must. Snorkelling or diving at the coral reefs of Vieques or Culebra is incredible. Hiking through El Yunque National Forest provides a unique rainforest experience. And of course, relaxing on one of the many beautiful beaches is a quintessential Puerto Rican experience.
It's best to rent a car when you go to Puerto Rico, especially if you want to travel beyond the city you're staying in, as there is no intercity train service, and the intercity bus service is very slow and uncomfortable.
When is the ideal time to visit Puerto Rico?
The best time to visit is during the winter months (December to April) when the weather is generally sunny and dry, with pleasant temperatures. However, this is also peak season, so expect higher prices and more crowds. Shoulder seasons (May-June and September-November) offer a good balance of pleasant weather and fewer tourists.
What are the best family friendly hotels in Puerto Rico?
Most people come to Puerto Rico for the beaches and culture, but there are some things to see. Old San Juan is worth visiting with its colorful streets. Puerto Rico is more known for its natural beauty, like Icacos Island, Playa El Combate, and Flamenco Beach, the latter being famous for its corral reefs and turtles.
Which neighbourhoods or areas are best for spending a week in Puerto Rico?
Old San Juan is perfect for a base if you want easy access to historical sites, restaurants, and nightlife. For a more relaxed beach vacation, consider areas like Condado, Isla Verde, or Luquillo. If you prefer something quieter, explore towns like Rincon or Fajardo.
What are the best pet friendly hotels in Puerto Rico?
Puerto Rico has many delicious local dishes on offer. Here are a few to add to your tasting menu when you visit. Mofongo is made with fried green plaintain and comes with a serving of fish, beef or chicken. Order some Tembleque for dessert, which is a shaky, coconut pudding. For a fishy snack, try bacalaitos, codfish fritters seasoned with Adobo, you can find these from kiosks all around the island.
Which parts of Puerto Rico are perfect for a weekend getaway?
Old San Juan is easily explored in a weekend, offering a rich historical experience. Alternatively, a weekend trip to Vieques or Culebra focuses on beautiful beaches and relaxed island vibes. For a nature-focused getaway, consider El Yunque National Forest.
What are the best hotels with jacuzzi in Puerto Rico?
The best time to come to Puerto Rico is from mid-April to June, which helps you avoid the crowds of the winter season, and avoid the rainy summer season. The weather is at its most pleasant this time of year.
Is renting a car recommended for exploring Puerto Rico?
Renting a car is highly recommended, especially if you plan to explore beyond San Juan. Public transport is available in some areas, but a car offers much greater flexibility, allowing you to visit beaches, rainforests, and other attractions at your own pace.
What are the best hotels with a swimming pool in Puerto Rico?
Yes, major credit cards are widely accepted in most tourist areas and larger establishments. However, it's always a good idea to have some local currency (US dollars) on hand for smaller businesses or street vendors.
What are the largest airports in Puerto Rico?
The two largest airports are Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport (SJU) in San Juan and Rafael Hernández Airport (BQN) in Aguadilla.
Are there any unwritten rules of behaviour visitors should know about Puerto Rico?
Puerto Ricans are generally warm and welcoming, but it's polite to greet people with a 'Buenos días', 'Buenas tardes', or 'Buenas noches', depending on the time of day. Learning a few basic Spanish phrases is also appreciated. Respect for local customs and traditions is always important.
What local specialities should you try in Puerto Rico?
You absolutely must try mofongo (fried plantains), lechón asado (roasted pig), arroz con gandules (rice with pigeon peas), and Pasteles (a savoury tamale). Many restaurants offer delicious seafood dishes, too.
Where are the best shopping spots in Puerto Rico?
Old San Juan offers a variety of shops selling local crafts, souvenirs, and clothing. The Plaza Las Américas mall in San Juan is a large shopping centre with a wide range of brands. For more unique finds, explore smaller boutiques and artisan shops in various towns around the island.

What’s the best place in Puerto Rico for mild and comfortable weather?
The coastal areas generally offer mild and comfortable weather year-round. Areas like Condado, Isla Verde, and Luquillo tend to have pleasant temperatures, even during the hotter months.
What are the most common travel mistakes tourists make in Puerto Rico?
One common mistake is underestimating travel times between locations. Another is not being prepared for the heat and humidity, especially during the summer months. Not learning a few basic Spanish phrases can also make interactions more challenging.
What are some hidden gems to explore in Puerto Rico?
