    Not sure where it's located Kevin but I went to Mccools bar every night and I could never thank the staff/ family enough they were worried about me getting a taxi late so dropped me to apartment every night, I had booked it 2 days before was given a lovely two bed beautiful view 2004, felt nervous walking at night which my only other experience of that was santa ponsa where the sexist remarks were unbelievable, found it a little to hot for early March, a little bored with the shopping centres, holiday left me a little cold apart from the brilliant band and people in that bar, tough year health and lost my dad, thanks for your great tips food etc especially my fav spot Los cris will be very helpful head there on Wednesday, take care

    Were thinking of gling here in june. Married couple late 30s.
    But im reading two complete different opinions.
    Some people say its a great spot for the craic with good music spots and cheap drink
    Then others say its a "dump" with loads of places closed.
    I know to each their own but which is it?? Is it a good spot for good nitelife and food and drink ?? Thats all we want!
    Thanks

    • @Natalie-jq3ip
      @Natalie-jq3ip 3 месяца назад

      It doesn't have a load of places closed at all and it's not a dump! I've been 7 times in the last 5 years. It's just a hater there was one or 2 places closed but that was cos it was changing into something else.
      I'm going back next week 7th may.
      We love puerto rico. The best way to find out is go for yourself. I've been all over and it's one of my fave places to go. You ain't short of shops, food places and bars etc etc. Also the new mall has all that as well. U won't be disappointed x

      I did live there and did often hear some Dutch complaining about they get not exactly same culture like home, the German same, some did only like only German food and beer and the French and the Americans and some Scandinavians too. I have seen many places did prostitute them self and after a while, when they lost their own culture, the tourists went to other places where still the original culture was there. Behaviour like a swarm of locusts / grasshoppers. This is why I did react.
      We are on the same side. No worry. Cheers🥂
