Going to Puerto Rico in may with my wife, want to spend most the time at the beach with a day in San Juan and maybe a day trip to rain forest. Anyone have recommendations for beach side hotels / resorts?

If you really wanna go off the grid, do a day or two trip to Culebra (flamenco beach) or even better Culebrita. There’s a $10 ferry from Ceiba, an hour uber from San Juan. Or a 30 minute flight in an 8-seater plane from San Juan.

Condado Vanderbilt is a classic, but parts are a little dated. Not luxury, but recommend numerous uno beach house for brunch one morning. If you like boozy boats to a secluded beach, Salty Dog catamaran is always a good time.

Isla Verde Area: Royal Sonesta & ESJ. El Condado Area: Caribe Hotel, San Juan Marriott & Stellaris, La Concha, ACE Hotel, Condado Ocean Club, Tryst Beachfront Hotel and Condado Vanderbuilt. Rio Grande Area (30-40 minutes from San Juan): Wyndham Grand Rio Mar, Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve and Four Seasons (Formerly St. Regis). Rio Grande is close to El Yunque, Luquillo & Fajardo but driveable for a day trip.

My wife got a job that requires us to relocate to San Diego. We have never lived there and know little about the city. We are planning to rent. We stayed in a hotel in little Italy and really loved the vibe there, but it’s too expensive for us. Are there other neighborhoods with similar vibes - restaurants, bars, lively, good for walking, clean, safe, young, diverse and accessible that are more affordable? Please share recommendations. How much should we reasonably budget to rent a 2bd/2bath?

Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it. Volcanic terroir dominates almost to the point of obscurity, and it had strong lemon notes, hints of quince, and sea salt. It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)
