My wife and I decided to go to San Juan on our honeymoon instead of going on a cruise. We were there this past February. We had a great time and I would not hesitate to go back. In fact we will probably be back in the next few years.

Every person I've met from PR has always been kind, and that comes from enormous strength. As long as Americans dismiss and ignore PR, we are missing the bigger picture, be it democratic or economic.
A lot of people are being so hateful with their comments. Aside from corruption (which is a problem almost every government has to deal with), criminal activity and the island’s debt, Puerto Rico is a beautiful destination with some of the kindest people on the planet. I would recommend visiting before passing judgement on the people that live there and spitting hate on hurricane survivors. If you’re thinking about visiting or have visited Puerto Rico in the past like this comment and share your experience with me! 😊
hola amigos ! Hopefully we will not have any hurricane this year or at least for some time. I live on west coast of Florida, I feel you. Would like to visit your country to meet your people. We have to fight and see you soon.
I think tourists smelled the government corruption there. Now add the unfortunate events of earthquakes. PR has taken a severe hit which will take time to recover from.
Gabe L Because nobody will work for $1 an hour! Maybe if Puerto Rico becomes independent they would have to go that route. Also, there is so much to do and places to eat on the island that you would be crazy to be trapped in a resort for a week.
@@gsoto3323 who told you people are trapped in a resort in the Dominican Republic? people go to puerto rico and are trapped in san juan seeing the same shit over and over
Im a full blooded Puerto rican and Im glad that these Businesse's are having trouble...there going down hill because they treat other Puerto ricans like crap, theyre food is over price and they only want to serv unsuspecting travelers because they want more for less . Why don't you talk about the real Puerto Rico and do research about other businesses in the Island before blaming Maria for everything.
im sorry but can you help me it’s very important im not english and i need to understand whats the name of thé restaurent, is it valentina? sorry and thanks for your answer
Here's why: Corruption in PR is huge. Crime is super violent. People have abandoned PR. Cost for food & services are high. The medical system sucks. Expensive electric bills. Heroin epidemic. Illegal immigrant slums. Toxic tap water Etc, etc, etc.
Hurricane Maria fue un desastre para los Puertoriqueno locales de Puerto Rico pero muy bueno para los gringos que estan destroyendo la economia de Puerto Rico y causando economia mas difficil para los Puertoriqueno locales de la Isla. Gracias Maria por castigar a los gringos que estan tratando de sacar a los Puertoriqueno fuera de la Isla.
Hummm some experts in this channel that have been brain washed every country has problems especially the USA drug capital of the world not to mention all the getos Detroit can I say.much more how can anyone judge a country when their own country has major issues I love porta rico great place before and still is now the people there are great and kind unfortunately their government doesn’t help them I can name a few more countries that has the same problems but all in all the people make any place great or a disaster
Look at all the photos after the hurricane, no one is cleaning the streets, or repairing the electric poles...let’s wait for daddy to do the work mentality! Kick them out us the US !
Well, if we no longer are a U.S territory, it will actually be plenty beneficial. No longer we will have to serve in the army of another country, since the U.S. will lose one of the most strategic points in the Caribbean. Then, the obliteration of the Jones act that doesn't allow us to commerce with directly with countries other than the United States of Amnesia. Also, without the massive competition of North American big corporations thanks to their economies of scale, we would be able to easily develop a better market for ourselves, since this corporations take billions and billions of dollars each year, without even paying taxes in the island, and with minimum employee benefits. We have been a U.S. Commonwealth for well over a 100 years now, and, I'm not implying that we don't have any benefits right now from the U.S., we do have food stamps, federal scholarships, and they helped us during the Maria disaster, which is nice from them. What I'm trying to prove here are two things. First, that the U.S. doesn't want to leave us and let us become independent, since we bring them plenty of benefits, to such a point that they recently imposed a Board of Directors on the island. Second, that when someone says "the U.S. should kick P.R." as a threat, well, they should now that this is actually no threat. Of course we will lose some benefits, but we will have plenty of shackles broken too. That would be all for now. Good day.
Where you there on the hurricane? I don't think so. To refresh your memorie after you talked all that non sense, the first week we had NO communicacion. The radio, didnt work neither cellphones. All my family and neighbors started cleaning the streets, cutting trees, attendint the elderly, cooking for each other, and helping people we didnt even now.
Ooh! ? Entonces como se llama esos otro sitios que tu dises son mejores que La Isla Bella de Puerto Rico? Yo se , no hay ningun sitios por ESO no nombraste ningun logar.

@@carcol04 You can't create electricity and import it with water to the island. The damage was devastating. There is no instant fix.

You didn’t answer why
If those who are criticizing did not experience the nightmire we went through, have a little more respect.

You are spot on about the people. After graduating, I plan to teach math there. PR deserves so much.
The smoothies distracted me
I'm now thirsty
Zuzu they are pina colladas. Pineapple, rum and coconut milk.
not a smoothie... it has rum in it which is alcoholic... but, they do make pineapple smoothies and coconut water would be nice from tropical areas...
Piña colada, is our national drink actually. Is better in a hot day.
2019 is not like that, tourist return and everything is back
This video didn't answer any questions so .. why don't you revise and promote Puerto Rico?
*Oh Maria, you took everything from Puerto Rico*
F it the chat for everyone
I think tourists smelled the government corruption there. Now add the unfortunate events of earthquakes. PR has taken a severe hit which will take time to recover from.
I imagine the coronavirus has been difficult since the cruse ships went away.
How come there's no 100% all inclusive hotels in Puerto Rico like the Dominican Republic and Mexico?

That guy's makeup analogy made no sense
Zion He was implying that when a person us cosmetics they look better, however its temporary.
The governor threatening trump wont help things either, duh

Is it time to invest in land there?

Bro yo are talking to much. You only saw the photos, you didnt live the reality of seeing your island destroyed

Make some research before talking so you dont look like an ignorant.
There are wayyyyy better places to visit!!
I Agreed 👍👍

Because crime is getting worse. Decrease the crime and you'll increase the tourism.
Crime is only worst because of the lack of jobs/opportunities.
When America speak American. Why should we care about Mexican countries?
Yikes, what grade did you make it to?

American ITS A NEW LANGUAGE?

referring it to a nuclear bomb is NOT ok.
My thoughts exactly...but We have to keep in mind these aren't educated people mate. I mean...most likely not.
