It is a VERY nice place to go. My husband used to have responsibility for a plant in Ponce, and we would go down every year. It has stunningly beautiful beaches, turquoise water, lovely weather, trade wind breezes, excellent restaurants, but like any other Caribbean place, there is crime and poverty. You have to stay in the safe areas.
