We spent one week on the Condado district of San Juan, Puerto Rico, and really enjoyed it. There are really no surprises when going to Puerto Rico, as in culture. Everything that on the mainland of the US is also in Puerto Rico, plus. You name it, it's in Puerto Rico, from Chili's Restaurants, Chicago Uno Pizzeria, casinos huge shopping malls, Wal-Mart, Target, Barnes and Noble. It's all there. In the Condado district it is quite safe to walk around pretty much at any hour of the day or night. There are major resort hotels right on the beach, such as [View Full Entry]

Last month, we just got back from Georgetown, Guyana. The vacation that we had there was very interesting. The Guyanese people were very friendly, before we left we had heard that Georgetown was dangerous; we did not experience any problems. The hotel that we stayed at for one week was the Le Meridien Pegasus, which is a division of Starwood Hotels (Sheraton). It is a beautiful hotel that has a very large swimming pool. There are three restaurants at this hotel. The main bar is near the pool and stays open until after midnight. Nearby the hotel is the Palm Court [View Full Entry]

Has anyone visited this destination recently? We have and had a great time in Haiti. We spent one week in the Port au Prince area and two weeks in Jacmel. Haiti can be a tourist destination once again. Does anyone else have any experiences or opinions on this? [View Full Entry]

We are going to Aruba in three weeks. My question is besides the most obvious, the beach, booze, casinos, what is there to do in Aruba? For example, are there any tourist type sites and/or attractions? Hoping that we have a great time there. We are flying on US Air from Syracuse, NY (SYR) to Aruba (AUA). [View Full Entry]

In April of this year (2007) we spent one-week in Condado area of San Juan. It was a great vacation. There is plenty to do in the Condado area. The beaches are very clean, with plenty around them. Meaning that there are bars, cafes, restaurants, shopping. There are a vast number of hotels to choose from in the Condado area. There are several major chains with casinos, such as Marriott, Radisson, the Condado Plaza, and the Diamond Palace Hotel all of which have casinos. The Condado area is very safe, there are police around on motorcycles round the clock; therefore, walking [View Full Entry]

Anyone out there that has traveled to Guyana, please tell me what it was like. We are thinking about a week long vacation there sometime this winter (2008). For example, where did you stay? what did you do there? what were the people like? [View Full Entry]

We have traveled to Haiti for about three weeks this past year. We spent two weeks in the pretty town of Jacmel and one-week in Petionville, which is a suberb of the capital, Port au Prince. Haiti is quite an interesting country to visit, and the Haitians are very warm and welcoming people. Unfortunately, the tourist trade there is not very good at this time. Haiti has not had regular tourism in nearly 20 years. Although, in the early 1990's it picked up for eight or nine months; however, this was very short-lived. If tourism would return to this country, [View Full Entry]
