"An iconic 1958 seashell-shaped resort that recently underwent a major renovation to modernize its offerings while preserving its eye-catching silhouette; the revamp introduced 238 renovated rooms and high-profile dining, including Levant by an award-winning chef and a sushi-and-sake-focused Tekka Bar, positioning the property as both an architectural landmark and a contemporary culinary destination in San Juan." - Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila Carley Rojas Avila is a bilingual travel writer, editor, and content marketer.

"A pink grande dame with literary pedigree—Ernest Hemingway and Tennessee Williams both worked here—and a lobby mojito program that treats the drink as cultural craft: bartenders undergo deep training, a portable mojito cart appears daily, and the prepared mojitos emphasize balance and simplicity using Papa Pilar’s Blonde Rum, a sugarcane stick, and a precise mint technique." - Carrie Honaker
"Located in Puerto Rico’s LGBTQ+ hub, offering curated activities and a multi-level infinity pool." - Jared Ranahan Jared Ranahan Jared Ranahan is a writer focusing on travel, wildlife, food, and beverage.

"Go for: an inaugural food festival and burgeoning culinary scenes beyond San Juan"
"For those who want resort amenities—pools, beach, gourmet restaurants and nightlife—smack-dab in the city, this classic is conveniently sandwiched between the shores of the Condado Lagoon and the Atlantic Ocean. Soothing sea-toned motifs flow through 478 spacious, recently-renovated rooms. Balcony rooms with ocean views are particularly captivating; you can’t beat the breezes in the afternoon. Ashford Avenue is the ritzy “Main Street” of Condado, peppered with high-end shops, restaurants and bars. The resort abuts the lovely Ventanas al Mar park, which holds free jazz concerts at the end of each month. Care to kayak or enjoy some paddleboarding? The lagoon is right across the street. The Casino Del Mar is one of San Juan’s last remnants of its gambling capital glory days. Fifty Eight Nightclub draws an energetic dance crowd." - Kathleen Squires
