Ritz-Carlton's ultra-luxury tier on 1,400 acres of former grapefruit plantation, thirty minutes from San Juan. Private beach, four golf courses, and the finest spa on the island.
Why We Chose It
Dorado Beach is the leading resort in Puerto Rico — one of only a handful of Ritz-Carlton Reserve properties worldwide (the ultra-premium category above standard Ritz-Carlton), occupying 1,400 acres of a former Laurance Rockefeller-developed grapefruit plantation at Dorado, 30 minutes west of San Juan. The 114 casitas and suites are spread across the oceanfront property with private pools. The Spa at Dorado Beach is unrivalled in Puerto Rico and among the finest in the Caribbean. Four golf courses including the legendary East Course, with Robert Trent Jones Sr. designs considered masterpieces. The beach is wide, private, and extraordinary. The most refined hotel experience in Puerto Rico.
