Helpful hints for a trip to Puerto Rico/Vieques?

Question

I am going to Puerto Rico at the end of May. I think I am going to spend 3 days in El Yunque and 4 days on Vieques. I hope to rent a car for the week out of San Juan. I will drive it around while on Puerto Rico. But my question is there a place to park it in Farajdo for 4 days? Also, does anyone have suggestions about inexpensive-decent priced places to stay in El Yunque and Vieques for me and my husband? THANKS

Hello. I reccomend you rent a car in San Juan at Hertz, Avis or Thrifty & then return it is Fajardo before you leave for Vieques. There is no point in paying for the car all those extra days. Then if you need to rent a car agin from Fajardo & drive it back to San Juan to return (or you can get a tour bus ride back). Also you can take it to Vieques with you but sometimes the cars get damaged so if you need to its better to rent in Vieques also.

El Yunque is located in Rio Grande. Also Luquillo & Fajardo are close by. So any of these areas you can look at. Try some of these hotels:

Also there is a bioluminescent lagoon in Fajardo called Las croabas & a bioluminescent bay in Vieques called mosquito bay. You need to see at least one of them. They are amazing :) ENJOY!

There are plenty of parking lots in Fajardo.  Now regarding what other people have told you.............  The only Car rental in Fajardo is Thrifty.  You won't be able to take the car to Vieques, it's not allowed by car rentals & it takes months in advance to book a space on the Cargo ferry.  Now about El Yunque, the only choice you have around there is the Fajardo Inn(good price and nice), everything else is luxurious or a dump.  Vieques has become pricey as years go by but go to vieques events and there you will find a list of all business on the island (hotels, car rentals, etc) it's the most accurate one.

If you need any further help let me know.

Answer 4

great places to go for a nice vacation!

well u could rent a car in san juan, and i recommend u rent in enterprise rental, its cheaper, no hastle service. well, vieques has different ferries, one its for passangers only and the other is cargo for ur cars, so if u wish to take ur car with u, u could do so, i dont know how much u pay, but i bet its more cheaper than letting ur car in a parking lot and having to rent another car in vieques. so take ur car with u to vieques. i know the passanger boat its 1.50 or 1.75 per person.
