What is Bleisure Travel?
Bleisure travel is the combination of “business” and “leisure” during a trip. Bleisure travel is a trend that combines work and play rather than dedicating a trip solely to business. Business travelers are
increasingly adding a few extra days to their trips to explore the local culture, unwind, and recharge. It’s more than just business—it’s an opportunity to experience the best of both worlds.
Studies show that bleisure travel enhances productivity, reduces stress, and fosters creativity. Taking time to unwind after a stressful trip is important to ensure you are fresh and ready to get back to a normal work routine. It is also important to take advantage of incorporating local culture, sights, and attractions into trips while you have the opportunity to visit them.
Why is Bleisure Travel So Popular?
Bleisure travel has gained in popularity with professionals who travel frequently and are looking to create more work-life balance and the chance to explore the different destinations they visit.
Puerto Rico in particular has become a hub for pharmaceuticals, technology, and finance industries. While your business may bring you to San Juan, there is no better evening or weekend escape than the untouched majesty of Rincon. Many companies also choose to host meetings, conferences, and trade shows here due to the surrounding beauty and tax incentives.

My husband and I had our wedding and reception at Maria’s. We rented the property for three days/nights. We wanted to make our destination wedding as accessible as possible for our family and friends. Maria’s was the perfect place. Twelve of our closest friends and family shared the house. I was so impressed that Maria’s had everything we needed, even little things like laundry detergent.
