Having a large list of things to do is not on the agenda for every traveler. While some vacationers will be happier at a resort offering numerous recreational activities, others can enjoy themselves with very few recreational choices, or they just want an attractive, comfortable place to get away from it all. While the hotel doesn't provide a very extensive array of recreational offerings the Hotel el Portal may have everything you need for your tropical getaway.
Water and Fitness
Even though this hotel doesn't include a swimming pool on-site, this hasn't kept it from being popular. Since there isn't a beach in the hotel's front or back yard, a lot of vacationers set aside some time to explore a few of Puerto Rico's beautiful beaches.
Tennis
There aren't any tennis courts at this hotel, so if you enjoy playing tennis you may want to consider some other options. This isn't a big issue for most guests, who find plenty of other activities to entertain them during their stay.
