I did watch and learn 3 card poker there though.  <\/p>\n<p>\tI&#8217;m doing a cruise in November out of PR and want to get my hotel booked and I&#8217;m looking at Hilton Condado as well.

It is a great place to have a pleasant and relaxing time&#8212;-BUT gambling is not one of them.  On the craps tables they would not allow setting of the dice at almost all of the casinos. The BJ was 8 deck shoes or continuous shuffle machines&#8211;or CSM for short which stands for chicken sh**t machines!!!  Would Rose and Doc go again?  In a heart beat.  the island is extremely clean, food excellent, beautiful beaches and water, scuba diving, snorkling, and other activities.  <\/p>\n<p>\tWould we go again.

My favorite of the Caribbean islands.  The weather is perfect year round.  And the crosswinds makes it feel comfortable all of the time.  There is also a lot on the island to do.  You can rent ATV&#8217;s or dirt bikes and go off-roading.  Horseback riding.  SUV rentals for off-roading.  There is Baby Beach, the lighthouse and The Natural Pool.<\/p>\n<p>\tAs far as gambling, there are many many casinos on the island.  All fairly small.  They all have the CSM like Doc said.  The place I would recommend the most to play at is the Marriott!  They are the largest casino on the island.  I worked there for a couple of years and can verify that most of the dealers are really nice.  Since working there, I&#8217;ve been back several times and never had any problems with dice setting.  Now everytime I have been back, I have known part or all of the crew so that may have something to do with it.  But definitely a fun place to visit.  <\/p>\n<p>\tIf you decide to go and have never been, be prepared to see a bunch of very large iguana&#8217;s.  The island is infested with them.  They are harmless but my wife broke her foot day 1 of our first trip there because we didn&#8217;t know about them and one scared the hell out of her.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tMidnight<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"migrated-reply\" style=\"border: 1px solid #eee;padding: 15px;margin-bottom: 15px;border-radius: 5px\">\n<p><strong>Posted by:<\/strong> The Breeze on February 2, 2015, 3:33 pm<\/p>\n<div>Thanks for the information to all.
