If you’re seeking a tropical paradise with white-sand beaches, delectable cuisine, and magnificent weather year-round, then Puerto Rico is your dream destination. Check out the natural wonders that are the island’s bioluminescent bays, such as Laguna Garde or La Parguera. For underwater adventures, there are a variety of tours to choose from. Explore the shores of Culebra and you just might spot some sea turtles passing by. Another spot worth visiting is La Plaza del Mercado de Santurce, a farmers market you can explore during the day and a hub for nightlife fun once the sun goes down. For accommodation, it’s always ideal to stay in rentals equipped with a kitchen, but have you considered rentals that come with a chef so that you’ll never have to go far to savor the region’s authentic cuisine? Read on to find out the top Airbnbs with chef in Puerto Rico.
