American citizens traveling to Puerto Rico from the mainland US, do not need Passports to travel.

Puerto Rico uses US currency. Most ATM cards work in PR. The primary language is Spanish.

If you travel with necessary medicines, bring your prescriptions and you’ll be completely assisted if needed at a local pharmacy.

There are no poisonous snakes on the Island, there are iguanas but they are more afraid of you then you of them.

Luckily there are no big “Mac’s” in sight from Villa Tropical but within a 10-40 minute drive one can find Walgreens, Walmart, Kmart, Sams Club, Costco, and Home Depot. Most modern conveniences are attainable.

There is just simply so much to do here that you’ll want to commit some time to relaxing on your deck and some time to site-seeing. Villa Tropical is pivotally located for the explorer types to achieve day trips to just about anywhere you want to go on La Isla del Encanto.
