We are so excited that you are traveling to celebrate with us in

San Juan, Puerto Rico!


Puerto Rico is known as "la isla del encanto" or "the island of enchantment". We hope you enjoy yourselves and experience some of the beauty and culture of the island!



Flying

Majority of airlines fly into San Juan and offer some good direct flight options!




Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport

Airport Rd, Carolina, 00979, Puerto Rico

Ride Share Options / Car Rental


Taxi services are quite prevalent on the island and are priced fairly. If you would prefer a rideshare option, Uber is the only one available on the island.

An Uber from the airport to the Condado area where La Concha is located is a 5 mile drive and around $10. An Uber from the airport to Old San Juan is an 8 mile drive and around $15.


Car rental is conveniently located at the airport and hotels as well. We recommend Thrifty, Avis and Budget. Between taxes, fees and pre-paying tolls a daily rate can sit around $60/day. We do recommend taking advantage of taxis and Ubers in the metro area, but if you are adventuring outside of San Juan, a rental car is your best option! Please explore la isla del encanto!




Some of our favorite hotels in the area

We have included a wide range of places to stay in the metro area so you can decide what is the best fit for you. You can check out the descriptions of the hotels and areas below. We are looking into room block rates both for La Concha and for other boutique hotels. Please fill out the "Room Block Request" survey if you are interested and we will reach out when we have rates/more information.


While Gabrielle's family is from Ponce, they would stay for part of their many trips in the Condado area! This is where you will find your beachfront hotels and resorts, bars, restaurants, and a few casinos.


Viejo San Juan (or Old San Juan) is a must-do on your trip to the island. Not only is the area full of history, museums, shops and restaurants, it is also teaming with both elegant and boutique hotels alike.


Isla Verde/ Carolina are right next to the airport and home to some quieter hotels, places to stay, unique restaurants and cafes!
