I think Puerto Rico is better
Great places, is cheaper and not so americanized

Compare the costs. Your dollar will go farther in Puerto Rico. Check out Rincon and Old San Juan. If you're not worried about how much you spend, go to Hawaii.

Puerto rico...way better beaches and less rain


kip
well they both have beaches
great surfing spots and full of friendly people
if you want something relaxing u should go to hawaii bcause they have less stuff to do there
if u like the city and the nature at the same time then you should goto puerto rico
to hawaii it takes about 10 hrs to puerto rico it takes about 4 1/2 hrs

Im puerto rican but Ive been to both places with my bf.
I like both, for they are similar in terms of tropical lifestyle, the only difference its the culture and the neatness. PR is a very beautiful place to visit because of its preserved cultural traditions, food, music, history and art. Even tought both countries use American dollars, PR is a bit less expensive than Hawaii and you can save more money and last longer in the island. If money is not an issue, then PR does have more spiced up nightlife environment, specially in San Juan PR. Hawaii is beautiful as well and more romantic of a place, also more perserved land and neatness than PR. The beaches are very clean, not only for the tourists but also for the residents who do take care more of their green island than puerto ricans do. Now, native Hawaiians are not to happy about Americans going to their island unless you keep in tourists places, so you may be welcome for some but not all. In PR everyone welcomes you, because we like tourists to go and see our island, and you dont have to keep only in tourists places. I say try Hawaii this year and another occassion try PR, and you will like both.

Well soon as you get married go to Hawaii.

GOOD DEALS CAN BE FOUND WITH A COMPANY KNOWN AS "MORE HAWAII FOR LESS" OR, IF THEY ARE STILL IN BUSINESS, "PLEASANT HAWAIIAN HOLIDAYS"

THE LEAST EXPENSIVE DEALS WILL BE FOR 3TO 5 NIGHTS WITH HOTEL AND AIR-FAIR. USUALLY $300 TO $500 PER PERSON. ASK FOR ALL OF THE EXTRAS YOU CAN GET, AIRPORT TRANSFERS, RENTAL CAR (SCOOTERS ARE GREAT) DISCOUNTS ON ACTIVITES. DIVE HANAMA BAY! EAT @ DUKES IN WAIKIKI!! AND TRY SURFING RIGHT IN FRONT, THE "ORIGIONAL BEACH BOYS" WILL GET YOU UP AND SURFING. PLUS LEARN ABOUT THE HISTORY. LOCAL "PURE BLOOD" HAWAIIANS ARE FROM AN ANCIENT CULTURE RICH IN HISTORY. THEIR ISLAND IS NOW A TOURIST HOT SPOT. YOUR STAY WILL BE FANTASTIC IF YOU SHOW SOME R E S P E C T. THEN YOU WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO LEARN ABOUT ALOHA. STAY AWAY FROM THE WEST SIDE IF YOU ARE ALONE, LOCALISM EXISTS, CAR PETTY THEFTS ARE REGULAR, JUST CHECK WITH THE LOCAL POLICE. AVOID ALA MOANA HARBOR AFTER DARK. MAKE SURE YOU GET TO THE NORTH SHORE, TRUE COUNTRY, WITH A LOT OF GREAT SURFING HISTORY.

IF YOU HAVE A LITTLE EXTRA MONEY GO TO MAUI, LESS PEOPLE. DRIVE THE HANA TRAIL!!!

I HAVE A LOT OF HAWAII EXPERIENCE BUT NO VISITS TO PUERTO RICO, IT'S NEXT ON MY LIST OF PLACES TO GO. HAVE A GREAT TIME, RESPECT THE LOCALS, AND LEARN ABOUT A FEW SOCIAL GRACES OF THE AREA YOU WILL VISIT AND YOU WILL HAVE A GRREAT TIME.

Hawaiii! Amazing and more romantic ;)


Joel R
that depends on what type of environment you want;
if you want a more romantic vacation then ill choose Hawaii.
if you want a more spicy vacation then ill choose Puerto Rico.
Hawaii has volcanoes and are soo cool.also there is pearl harbor.and Waikikibeach the most beautifull beach in the world.
Puerto Rico has bioluminisent bays that are soo cool too. the third largest cave system in the world, also the only Tropical Rainforest in the US.and Flamenco Beach the second most beautifull beach in the world behind waikiki (based on the travel chanel rankings)

Ive been to both so trust me when I say puerto rico it rains so much in hawaii you can hardly do anything and little side note: Costa Rica is better then both just in case you can go there

wow i dont even know how this could be up for debate? Hawaii hands down. any island would be great.

i dont see how the water in PR would be better? they dont have that blue carribbean water.

if you're on the west coast then airfare would be cheaper to Hawaii and east coast for PR...check out www.bookingbuddy.com www.kayak.com www.tripadvisor.com
