    Hello guys , we truly enjoyed your video. We moved to Hormigueros 6 years ago and we love it . We are on the western coast, close to Mayguez, Boquerón and Cabo Rojo and a 40 minute drive to Rincón. We started an Air B&B : The Villa Tranquil and have visitors from all over the world. There’s so much to do here , this is truly our paradise. Come back and and enjoy this beautiful part of the island 🏝️. Always welcome 🙏🏽 Maureen & Nelson ❤️🏝️🇵🇷

      My wife and I want to live there so bad. I just don’t know if it’s realistic for us. We hate winter and love to surf. We visited multiple times and loved it but living may be different.

    • @TheWanderingHartz
      @TheWanderingHartz  Рік тому +2

      We are not fans of winter either! We spent two months in PR and feel we could definitely stay longer next time. The biggest issue for us is having a vehicle to get around. Lots of factors to consider.
      Thanks for sharing!

    We stayed in Rincon, 3 BR, 2 BA house for $800-900 for a month. That included utilities and internet. Groceries at ECONO was , I thought, not much more than US. We ate at less expensive places and had a great month.

    I am from Puerto Rico leaving in Rincon and Fajardo is expensive people the visit the island always make the mistake of renting in ricon Fajardo Isabella San juan...is more places like Levittown cataño dorado Vega vaja manati and is way more shipper dorado is where I live and is very beautiful place next time stay in one of this places and you will see a big difference on prices on average everything

    • @TheWanderingHartz
      @TheWanderingHartz  Рік тому

      Good information! Dorado is very pretty indeed, we drove through there. We almost stayed in Aguadilla but we had to change our dates. It was way more affordable than Rincon and Fajardo Thanks for sharing.

      Thanks for the suggestions. We did visit the lighthouse and beach in Cabo Rojo, even filmed it, but never got around to editing the footage. Next time we are back on the island we hope to spend more time there.

    There’s cheaper places to stay than Rincón. A good place to shop is at Walmart. I’m shure restaurants in Rincon are higher too. Best wishes. PR is cheaper than Hawaii.

    Just watched your Fajardo video as well. I understand you both want to live the best life as possible, in the best places with the best views, etc. However, if you would have considered staying just slightly in the outskirts of both places you could have saved close to half of what you spent. You paid tourist prices. The trick of the game is to pay local prices and live the tourist lifestyle. A short drive will take you to all those beautiful destinations without having to pay the high prices.
    PS: The southwest corner is awesome and less expensive.

    • @TheWanderingHartz
      @TheWanderingHartz  Рік тому

      Those are good points. Thanks for the nice comment.
      We booked a larger place due to family and friends who were supposed to visit and didn't.
      You're absolutely right, though, although you must have a car to do so.
      Most people can't afford to spend as much on a car rental (crazy high since our stay) for a month or more. Which is the reason we haven't yet planned our return stay yet. Hopefully, we can make it happen sooner rather than later. 😊
      We plan on hitting the southern part of PR on our next trip.
      We did visit the lighthouse in Cabo Rojo when we were in Rincon. I'm not sure why I'll get around to edit the video, though. I'm pretty backlogged right now.

    Question: does insurance provided by the companies work in PR? If you were to relocate to PR for more than 6 months/year would companies be opposed? Could it be a possibility?

      Hi Luis, we rented our car for Sixt. Our first month was from the San juan location and the 2nd month was the Aguadilla location. We had a really amazing deal on our rentals which we haven't' seen since. Last we checked the prices for a month were now over $1400 😲

      😀 Glad you noticed that! It is a huge reason we travel slowly, since your staying longer you get much better discounts on accommodations (our biggest expense in most countries) and enjoy more of the perks of styling in place even if for a month. Like cooking meals at home to keep your budget on track.
