Vista Vacation Resort
Vista Vacation Resort is a Caribbean boutique resort located in beautiful Rincon, Puerto Rico.
|
More Info:
We offer an intimate and relaxing vacation, in a quiet and private setting. Our resort is nestled in the emerald hills that overlook the sea, in the small and quaint beach town of Rincon, PR. All our apartments have private terraces that provide the best ocean views in the Caribbean. We are conveniently located near the better things that Rincon Puerto Rico has to offer; a short walk takes you to world class beaches, and a five minute drive takes you to our many fine restaurants, good-time beach bars and the Rincon PR town square, where you can enjoy our new town center. We also offer a wide range of leisure and adventure activities in the Rincon Puerto Rico area.
The Best Views
We offer spectacular ocean views from our well-appointed accommodations. Our ocean-view swimming pool and spa tub are centrally located, near green pastures and the winding forest trails that lead to Rincon's finest beaches. Every afternoon, our guests gather to watch the sun slowly dip into the ocean behind the Rincon Lighthouse (El Faro) and Isla Desecheo (a National Wildlife Refuge, 13 miles offshore). This spectacular scene is filled with magnificent colors. Then, the vista transforms into a nocturnal paradise as the cool night fills with the songs of the Coqui (Puerto Rico's miniature tree frogs) and the clear sky fills with bright star clusters, shooting stars and moving planets. Watching the huge full moon set over our shimmering waters is a romantic and enthralling experience that will be remembered for a lifetime.
Nearby Attractions:
Diving/Snorkeling:
Dive or snorkel the pristine shore reefs at Steps Beach or Desecheo Island, a national wild refuge, 12 miles off shore. These healthy Caribbean reefs support a great diversity of tropical fish, coral and marine life. Dive boats are are not huge, allowing for a personal dive experience. Water visibility is usually 100 to 150 feet. There is also great wall diving and night diving. Charters and packages are available.
Horseback Riding:
Enjoy scenic, coastal and historic railroad routes that lead through forests and undeveloped beaches. You will marvel at the spirited yet gentle nature of Puerto Rican Paso Fino horses. Experience the natural beauty of western Puerto Rico by horseback. Morning and sunset rides are available.
Kayaking:
Guided tours by a marine biologist takes visitors from the town of La Parguera to the bio-luminescent bay to the east, an excellent night excursion, especially on moonless nights. Tours are available in the late afternoon and early evening.
Surfing:
There are over one thousand surf breaks in Puerto Rico. About one hundred of them all within 45 minutes of Rincón, offering reef breaks, point breaks, shore breaks, outer reefs and river mouths, for all skill levels. Rincón surfing became world-known after its 1968 World Surfing Championship, and is still known today for its world class waves, predominant offshore trade winds, and beautiful weather. Surfboard rentals are available at our resort and lessons are available, customized to each guest's need.
Cave Exploration (Spelunking):
There are only two other places in the world where you will find a cave system as massive or dramatic as the RÃo Camuy Cave Park – and neither of them has a tropical underground river running through it. If you are looking to disconnect from the daily grind, immerse yourself into the depths of the earth and resurface in complete awe, cave exploration is the thing for you. In the caves, mystery and adventure are accentuated. In complete darkness, you will be transported into an uncharted world of wonder and explorations. You will encounter clay slides, surreal pathways, and an immense hall created by thousands of years of natural forming. For the advanced spelunkers, guided excursions by highly trained experts in the field can be arranged. We can arrange the guided tour for you or give you driving directions and park hours for your exclusive enjoyment.
Whale Watching:
During the winter months, humpback whales appear in the waters in front of Vista Vacation Resort. Their migration normally occurs during their mating/calving season, January through March. The endangered humpback whale can be seen all along the western and northern coast of Rincon. Every year, these whales travel over 3,100 miles, from the waters off Greenland and Newfoundland, to the warm waters of the Caribbean. These beautiful and mysterious aquatic mammals can be seen communicating with one another through breaching, swimming on their backs, tail-lobbing (slapping their flukes on the surface) and flipper slapping. Scuba divers and snorkelers hear the "mating songs" of the males. The best place to view the whales is at the Rincon Lighthouse Park; just steps away from the Vista Vacation Resort. Or you may bring your telescope or binoculars and enjoy a private view from the comfort of your balcony. Afternoon whale watching charters are available.
Fishing:
For the sport fisherman, Rincon is the ideal location for a great fishing experience. Charter trips are available to the waters off Desecheo Island and Mona Passage, which offer a wide variety of fish, including blue & white marlin, yellow and black fin tuna, wahoo, sailfish, dorado (mahi or dolphin), swordfish, and more.
