Stay at El Conquistador Resort.
Book your stay at El Conquistador Resort, a Waldorf Astoria Resort that offers five unique villages, each with panoramic views of ocean waters. The resort has a whopping 20 restaurants, serving everything from seafood delicacies to Pan-Asian delights to wraps and salads.

Spend the afternoon at Palomino Island.
No need to leave the island to enjoy the best water activities Puerto Rico has to offer. Guests of El Conquistador Resort can hop on the private catamaran, go scuba diving, snorkel, sail, windsurf, or ride horseback across the pristine-white beach of Palamino Island.
The resort also rents out banana boats, wave runners, and hobie cats—just ask at the concierge!
Take a Bioluminescent Bay kayaking tour.
Be sure to book an excursion out to Bio Bay to witness one of the most beautiful natural phenomenons on Earth. Bio Bay is home to millions of bioluminescent organisms, which emit bluish light when agitated, and are quite stunning against the backdrop of the black Caribbean sea at night.
Tours leave in the early evening with a qualified instructor, so kayak your way through mangrove channels to the glowing waters!
