Costa Bahia Hotel Paseo Caribe
The room had a great view; however, the floor was very slippery. I reported it to the front desk and they immediately took care of it. The property is close to restaurants and historical places.

Fairmont El San Juan Hotel
El San Juan is a classic close to airport and with good pools and beach. Property is a little worse for wear and incessant bass music unwelcome. Should have a quiet adult pool. Service is slow at best.
