Discover Puerto Rico this Fall

The Fall Season is Ideal When Tropical Warmth, Golf Getaways, Hotel Specials, Travel Interests Mesh with Array of Packages, Events


(SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO) — As temperatures dip chillingly this autumn throughout much of North America and the world, Puerto Rico sizzles with soul-warming tropical weather at a wealth of places catering to varied travel interests.

Golf is a particularly popular fall Island activity given the ideal playing weather and 17 courses, many at award-winning resorts where a cornucopia of post-round activity choices offers something for everyone. Wyndham Grand Rio Mar Puerto Rio Golf and Beach Resort is a full-service hospitality venue with casino, spa, two 18-hole golf courses, and breathtaking oceanside location on the northeast coast. Golfers can enjoy the acclaimed property for $199 plus tax this season. The package includes one-night accommodations, unlimited golf on the River Course (Greg Norman design) or Ocean Course (Tom and George Fazio), and daily buffet breakfast for two at Marbella Restaurant, among other things.

On the northwest tip of the Island lies Royal Isabela, the luxury boutique enclave with its dramatic Links Course perched 200 feet above the sea on undulating cliffs. It has unveiled two October packages. The “Weekday Discovery Package” includes two nights and three days for $549 while staying in Royal Isabela’s exquisite Casitas, which exude peaceful, luxurious splendor. Each features a private pool with panoramic ocean views tucked amidst lush foliage. The Royal Isabela “Weekend Get-Away Package” enables in-Casita spa services, cuisine options by Executive Chef Jeremie Cruz, and the choice to play the world-class golf course.

Not a golfer? Not a problem. Explore historic San Juan or Puerto Rico’s museums. Relish in econ-sensitivity at the El Yunque rain forest or through the Island’s bio-luminescent bays. Visit any of the dozens of municipalities for their unique culture. Party with locals, ride some waves, or relax on the beach. Puerto Rico has a variety of beaches, and as the top LGBTQ-friendly destination in the Caribbean, the beaches are as welcoming as they are Insta-ready.

Events abound throughout October and November, including Puerto Rico Cocktail Week 2019, Nov. 3-9, at La Concha Renaissance Resort. The seven-day celebration pairs local cocktail heritage with the best beaches, spirit brands, people and bars, all coming together to showcase the best flavors in town.  Birthplace of the Pina Colada, its bartenders and concoctions will amaze and satisfy the most discerning cocktail connoisseurs.

Arriving in Puerto Rico is a relative breeze. Air hub of the Caribbean, it is particularly appreciated by American citizens who don’t require a passport to enter the bilingual Island where the U.S. dollar is used. Further enhancing travel convenience, Puerto Rico features numerous non-stop flights from major cities in North America, particularly along the Eastern Seaboard.
