Dorado Beach Ritz Carlton in Puerto Rico

When developer Laurance S. Rockefeller opened his resort in the 1950s, he took care to preserve what made the former plantation, and Puerto Rico, special.

Buildings were no taller than palm trees. Nature was left to unfurl beautifully. Access to the ocean remained unobstructed. Over the years, the 50-acre retreat has carried on Rockefeller’s legacy of catering to those who value, human, connection, and tailored luxury.

Suites and Residences feature signatures tied to Puerto Rico: the ocean just outside your door; the personal attention of an Embajador; outdoor living space; an open-air shower and artwork capturing the colors of nature. The newly transformed Su Casa, built in the 1920s, offers a two-story, five-bedroom villa along the coastline.

WELLNESS

Nature plays a recurring role in the spa experience. An infinity pool overlooks a pineapple garden. Treatments are performed amid the treetops or in pavilions hidden off meandering paths. Body scrubs and poultices are crafted from indigenous ingredients. And apothecary-inspired interiors feature handmade illustrations of native plants.
