The Las Olas shopping centre is in sleepy Agua la Perra just inland from the Puerto Base marina by the beach. It caters to the laid-back apartment crowd that prefers Agua la Perra to the bright lights of Puerto Rico and is currently home, according to Tripadvisor, to three of the top ten rated restaurants in Puerto Rico.

Cosi Como Sei is a small and cosy Italian restaurant that is currently sitting in top spot out of the almost 700 Puerto Rico restaurants listed on Tripadvisor.

Toro Bravo is currently the top-rated steak and grill restaurant in Puerto Rico (not bad when you consider that there must be 30 of them in the resort). 

El Cenador Grill, an old-school grill restaurant, is a local institution in Puerto Rico and is currently number eight in the Tripadvisor listings for the whole of Puerto Rico.

Self-contained Agua la Perra resort is behind Puerto Base marina just east of Puerto Rico beach. Las Olas is just up the hill once you go under the road. It has a selection of restaurants, plus an Hiperdino supermarket and a couple of bars.
