Great seafood restaurant in Las Croabas. The grilled lobster is amazing! Right in front of the Bio-Bay excursions.

W Sushi Bar
Great fusion sushi spot in Rio Grande - Home of El Yunque!
The best rotisserie chicken in the area. It's not really a sit-down restaurant. Mainly for pick up. You go to the window and order your food to take back to the condo. BBQ Chicken, Ribs, Arroz con Gandules, Yucca, and more!

In Las Croabas. You must go at least once for breakfast. The owner (Gladys is amiable and welcoming.) You sit on the roof of her house overlooking the Bio-Bay. The pancakes are the best you will ever have. Parking stinks, but we always find parking. If she offers the fruit salad, do it. It's delicious.

One of the best beaches in Puerto Rico. Calm clear waters and great restaurants nearby. There is a $5 parking fee but well worth it. Avoid parking on the side of the road or you risk getting a ticket.

This is a hidden beach at Seven Seas. It's a 35-40 minute walk through some beautiful Mangroves. Great hike and worth the effort. You will be rewarded with an amazing beach. This beach does not have many people. You will love it!! Getting there is tricky. My advice is to go on YouTube and search Playa Escondida. There are many videos that show you how to get there. Bring just a carry on cooler and towels.

Car Service
Uber drivers are very limited here. There is Fajardo Car Service but very unreliable.
If you need a driver, Peter is one of the few Uber drivers. Call him at 787-435-6398. Great guy and very friendly. Tell him we recommended you.

Supermarkets
There are two supermarkets. The closest to the condo is a 5-minute drive to Pueblos Supermarket. There is a bigger supermarket on PR-3 called Ralphs. Buy your food and cook at the condo.

Restaurants to Avoid
There are some restaurants that are not worth visiting. This is based on my experience with food, service, and pricing.
1. Most restaurants at Kioskos De Luquillo. - Long waits, over-priced, terrible service at most locations. Some spots do have good food.
2. Dos Panza Taqueria Y Cantina in Rio Grande. - The place is packed on weekends but the food is so so. Guacamole is squeezed from a tube. Terrible taste. The tacos a super dry. Food is served in to-go foam containers. Avoid it!
