For many families, Puerto Rico makes for an easy way to snag an exotic, international vacation without needing a passport. Seven Hiltons on the Caribbean island are now offering a Puerto Rico is Exciting package that includes:

• 20% discount on hotel rates
  
• A resort credit on a sliding scale: $25 if you stay two nights, $50/three nights, $75/four nights and $100/five nights
• Discounts on family-friendly tours (for example, fourth person goes free for snorkeling, worth $69)
  
• $25 casino voucher

Deal or no deal? Si, si! While the tour discounts and casino vouchers are gimmes that you might never use, it’s hard to argue with a 20% price break plus a resort credit. When we checked early summer rates for a few participating resorts, the package delivered on its promised savings. At the El Conquistador Resort, for example, we found a rate of $159 a night—which is indeed $40 (or 20%) off the regular $199-a-night rate for a standard room with two queens. Outside El Yunque Rain Forest, the big beach resort has a huge water park, a private island, a kids' club for ages 4 to 12, a spa and golf.

To take advantage of this package, book by April 30 and travel by October 9. There is a two-night minimum stay.  Look for the package when entering dates, then check the “PR is Exciting” box, or use promotion code “P2” whe booking online.
