4.0 out of 5 stars It's worth it!!, 6 Dec 2002

By	"connorkevin" - See all my reviews

Puerto Rico is a small part of heaven in the Caribbean. This guide has an excellent history and culture section, and the reviews of villages/towns are usually spot on. Sometimes basic details are missed out, and two places missing that are definitely worth a visit are Buy� Beach in Boquer�n and Sandy Beach in Rinc�n. Perfect!!!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great guide for a great country - bit too wordy though, 28 Oct 2002

By	Liam Palmer - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Puerto Rica (Lonely Planet Regional Guides) (Paperback)

Puerto Rico is a bit of the US of A in the Caribbean. The home to hundreds to cruise ships, it is often overlooked by travellers heading to the Caribbean. This is possibly because it is stuck between greatness - better wildlife in Costa Rica, better beaches in Barbados, better culture in Cuba...Puerto Rico combines all of these attractions into a sizable island where you could spend over a week travelling.

This book is great if you go to Puerto Rico for more than a stop over. Most guides to Carribean Islands try to cover the whole region in one text - this is concentrated knowledge. The only criticism, as with all of this series, is the lack of pictures and maps - its all a bit too wordy to really help you make choices.

Having said that, its the only decent guide I could find to this island!!
