Dorado Beach, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, will reopen its doors
in October, marking another milestone in the recovery and resurgence of Puerto
Rico.
The resort, which sits on 1,400 acres of the former Laurance
Rockefeller estate 40 minutes west of San Juan, made its debut in December 2012
and has been closed since Hurricane Maria hit last September.
All 114 beachfront guest rooms and suites have been redone.
Su Casa, the five-bedroom villa that was originally home of pilot Clara Livingston, has been modernized and updated. Spa Botanico
will feature new treatments as well as products made in the on-site apothecary.
Dining venues include the poolside Encanto Beach Club Bar
& Grill, which will offer a new seafood dinner menu and light fare at
lunch.
The Positivo Sandbar beachside restaurant will debut a ceviche
bar and La Cocina Culinary Center will host cooking classes and private
dinners.
