If you're staying in the "surfing capital of the Caribbean," embracing your inner beach bum doesn't necessarily mean sleeping in a shack.

Rincón offers a variety of accommodations – from luxurious to laid-back. Nearly every lodging option overlooks one of Rincón's stunning beaches, where you can surf, swim, snorkel, paddleboard, dive, and much more. There are also properties nestled amidst lush vegetation that will give you a sense of being in an exclusive, secluded paradise.  

From pet-friendly inns like the Serenity Hotel to family-owned properties like the Lazy Parrot, here's a selected list of the best places to stay that Rincón has to offer
