My husband and I stayed at El Conquistador resort, and wanted to try something different. We took a very short cab ride to El Estacion and are so happy we did. We sat outside and had some great drinks (very reasonably priced). The food is cooked on a grill right in front of you. I had a skirt steak with... more

If you are staying at the El Conquistador hotel, definitely get a taxi and have them take you here. The prices are reasonable and the seafood very fresh. I had shrimp in a garlic creame sauce that was delicious, and my husband had grouper in the same sauce. He loved it. We also got to sample a variety of local... more

My family (parents + 2 teens) did the Rainforest & Bio Bay tour. Our driver, Mike (AKA Good Lookin') was very knowledgable about the island and the rainforest. The van was comfortable and there was plenty of space since only two other people joined our tour. Since we didn't have a car while in Puerto Rico, this was a good... more

I have been to this beautiful resort when it was Wyndham. Now LXR manages the places and it has gone DOWNHILL!! The place has gone through a room renovation so let me get out the good side of the review. The Rooms are clean, new, nice flat screen (NO HD), plenty of hot water, and the Ocean View is spectacular!!... more

The hospitality and intimate setting on the Erin Go Bragh made for a very memorable day; especially as we saw other boats loaded with 40-50 people. Lunch was great; the company was fantastic! more

We spent a week in Puerto Rico and by far the best thing we did was the sailing trip with Capt. Henry and his wife Ingrid. The food was outstanding, the day relaxing and the company wonderful....Thanks again more

9 Aug 2008

My husband and two children (ages 5 &10) stayed at this resort in early August. It was our first trip to Puerto Rico. The resort is very beautiful, but that's it. For that scale of hotel, I really was expecting a lot more. Compared to other hotels of that scale in the Caribbean (Bahamas, Virgin Islands) the resort could have... more

My wife and I recently returned from a five night stay at the EQ with our two children ages 6 and 8. We were a little unsure of what to expect given the varying reviews we have read. We have traveled quite a bit in the Caribbean with our kids and on a whole we were very pleased with the... more

8 Aug 2008

Our family of 5 just returned from the "El Con" (as they call it) and it was one of, if not the best, family vacations we've ever taken. Note, however, that some of the accomodations are better than others - many rooms and "casitas" (condos) have been renovated - of course, make sure you're booking one that has been. We... more

We recently booked EGB III while on our honeymoon in Puerto Rico and where delighted with the experience. Capt. Bills wealth of knowledge about sailing and the local environment is remarkable as it is entertaining. His first mate Engrid is a joy and went above and beyond to ensure all on the boat (7) where comfortable and enjoying the ride.... more

If you are used to staying at high-end 4 or 5 star resorts, this is probably not the right resort for you. Although the property is somewhat nice and the views are spectacular, this resort is absolutely not worth the money. All the reviews about broken elevators and service problems are absolutely accurate. We stayed in the marina area and... more

This hotel is positioned as a high-end resort. (and priced accordingly). It is NOT a luxury hotel and is a terrible value. The prices are outrageously high, and the service is really lousy. The hallway outside my room seemed as if it was designed to echo as much noise as possible. I regularly felt like there were people right in... more

Captain Saso and his friendly, hard-working crew all work together to provide a smooth, easy, and fun snorkeling trip off the waters of Puerto Rico, near Fajardo. The whole crew speaks Spanish as well as English, and Saso is personable and nice, remembering the names of individual passengers throughout the trip. The Salty Dog Catamaran hold 42 people comfortably, as... more

We thoroughly enjoyed our snorkeling tour with East Island Excursions. We went to 2 locations and saw lots of fish. The crew suggested we feed the fish left over bread from lunch and that made them swarm. The crew was very friendly and accommodating. The food was great. We have 3 teenagers/young adults and this was perfect for them. more

We stayed at this resort for four nights in June. Myself, husband & 15 year old daughter. Pros: beautiful views from most areas of the resort; lots of shopping, dining, activities. Especially liked the Godiva chocolate shop - it made for a great dessert stop in the evenings. The rooms are large, recently renovated, well-equipped. Las Brisas breakfast buffet was... more

We stayed at this hotel 7/19/08-7/26/08. It was quite a change from the Embassy Suites in San Juan. This hotel is so quiet and calm. No loud music and no kids running around. We stayed with our 3 small children and had no problems. Everyone was friendly. There are a few hidden charges, though. The miniature golf costs $4 and... more

We returned from a trip to Las Casitas in Fajardo, PR two weeks ago. A shuttle was waiting for us at the airport ($60.00 rt) and we had a pleasant ride for 1 1/2 hours till we arrived. The property is huge and Las Casitas is situated atop a small mountain overlooking the Caribean. We didn't realize that Las Casitas... more
