[quote=Anonymous]Sometimes finding and working with a travel agency is more work.  Here’s what I would do:

1) book a hotel.  Just one.  Wyndham Rio is great as is El conquistador but there are lots of great options.

2) book a car as those sell out.  You can cancel if you decide later you don’t want one.

3) do these three excursions, only one of which I would book in advance—one day on a catamaran with snorkeling (book in advance — trip advirps has a ton of recommendations); do one day at el junque which does not need to be planned in advance and you can zip line if you want; do one day at the fort and old San Juan which does not need to be planned in advance.  The old buildings and church are very cool and plan on buying an ice pop from a street vendor.  The other days will be beach/pool.  Any more will be exhausting and this will be the perfect combo of stuff and relaxing.

And PS don’t feel icky about using miles from your deceased loved one.  They would love that you are using them to treat your kids to a special trip that they will love.  What a great way to honor their memory—really.  My grandfather left me a very small amount of money as a teen and I blew it all on a trip, with my parents encouragement.  Death reminds us to live our lives with the people we have while we still can. [/quote]
