Puerto Rico
Travel to Puerto Rico for a holiday or city break
Some travelers say the rooster is the island's earliest tour guide, crowing before dawn calls in the sun. Puerto Rico, where the coqui frog sings louder than most alarm clocks, offers markets with mangoes that stain your shirt and beaches where sandals mysteriously wander off on their own. One can lose track of time, and sometimes also their hat, in Old San Juan's blue cobblestone streets. A hammock nap beneath a palm might become the day's best decision, unless, perhaps, you end up chasing wild horses near Isabela instead. Looking for the best hotel in Puerto Rico is like searching for the coldest piña colada; everyone has an opinion, but only your toes will know for sure.

El Yunque, a rainforest where rain falls sideways and sometimes upside-down (or so it feels), offers trails that seem to play hide and seek with the clouds. The popular things to do or visit in Puerto Rico often include street food that may or may not be legal in your home country—mofongo, alcapurrias, and pinchos, each one a small adventure for the tongue. On Sundays, families gather for lechón in Guavate, where music and laughter spill into the street and even the dogs look like they're dancing salsa.
Snorkeling with turtles in Culebra, you might forget how many sunscreen applications you already did. The bioluminescent bays near Vieques, they glow under the moon, like someone forgot to turn off the underwater Christmas lights. For seekers of the best hotel in Puerto Rico, a rooftop pool can feel like winning the lottery, but sometimes it's the lizard on your balcony that becomes the real star of the stay. Watch out for iguanas—they have a tendency to photobomb selfies, and once, one tried to steal my sandwich, no joke.
