Has anyone been to Puerto Rico recently? Looking for the latest intel.
Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use
I was there 6 months ago and had a good time. Wondering if things have changed.
Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.
Cheers

First time was overwhelming but exciting. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.

Adding my experience: scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: prices up 15-20%.
