The best account type for Juan, given that he doesn't need access to the money for a number of years and wants to earn the highest interest rate, is a **Certificate of Deposit (CD)**.

CDs typically offer higher interest rates compared to regular savings accounts, money market accounts, or checking accounts, especially for longer-term deposits. However, he should be aware that CDs require him to lock in his money for a specified term and that there may be penalties for early withdrawal.
