Visited Puerto Rico for 12 days. Great experience. Scene is as described. Pricing excellent value.
Spent $91/day. Best part: friendliness.
Overall: 9/10. One of my favourites.

Interesting take but I think you overpaid. Try negotiating next time.

Adding my experience from 3 weeks ago.
The scene has improved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more competition.
