San Juan, Puerto Rico’s capital, ranks among America’s most well-preserved colonial cities. Walk the cobblestoned paths among colorful colonial houses, historic churches, and laid-back plazas with the aquamarine waters of the Atlantic Ocean as your backdrop. The city’s abundance of bars, casual eateries called fondas, and farm-to-table bistros serving mofongo make it a foodie’s paradise. Tree-lined playas with powdery sands and turquoise waters are snowbirds’ havens. Adrenaline junkies will love El Monstruo, formerly the longest zipline on the planet, and nature lovers must explore Laguna Grande and El Yunque National Forest. This tiniest isle of Greater Antilles offers not just tourist attractions but also cool and cozy accommodations! Choose the top Airbnbs with private pool in San Juan, Puerto Rico, for luxurious lodgings while you’re exploring the island.
