Hi! Also in San Juan is the St. Regis resort (different direction from the airport). I have stayed there four times and written an article on my blog about my favorite tips and tricks at the St Regis in Puerto Rico here nickgray.net/st-regis-san-juan/
One of the best resorts on the globe 🌎
Dorado is a beautiful place to be, and the Ritz Carlton Reserve is just gorgeous. Adding to that is the fact that people in the island are so warm and friendly.
Great memories!..things have changed...was there in 1977 for my Honeymoon...then 2 more times in the 80s...retired and plan on going back soon!
Nice job. My parents vacationed at Dorado Beach in the 1960’s. It was one of my mom’s favorite vacation destinations.
As a kid growing up in PR, back in the late 60s we used to drive around the hotel grounds. Back then there was no check point at the entrance. There was hardly any development then, just the slendid vegetation that made feel like you were in another world😊. As an adult, I stayed in a room like yours, Stll splendid. It is probably the most beautiful and heavenly hotel in PR. Quiet, no elevators, just peace.
Thank you, for sharing what a beautiful resort love to go there soon you did a great job filming it👍🏻
Hi Nick! thank you for your wonderful virtual tour. Although I am Puerto Rican, I have never visited the new Ritz-Carlton. It is gorgeous and merits a stay! Thanks again, I hope you felt welcomed as is the Puerto Rican tradition of hospitality.
Hello hello, and thanks for your kind welcome and very nice comment. I hope to return to Puerto Rico some day soon. Your island is fantastic.
Great virtual tour! I hope you had a great time on the island of enchantment!
Thank you. Went to this resort when it was a Rock Resort Property. Gorgeous then and gorgeous now!
Hi Nick! Thank you so much for sharing your video. I am treating myself to a visit to this lovely resort for my birthday this weekend. I can’t wait!

Great video. I spent my honeymoon there in 1984. I'm considering going back for my 40th anniversary in early May. I usually stay in Isabela but wouldn't mind a change. Thanks for the tour. A lot has changed 😊🌴🌴
This was nicely done!!
Amazing video! Thanks for the detailed tour. My favorite has to be the library... with the veggie and fruit waters. 🌞

Hi Nick! There’s not many videos of this property so thanks for filming. You mentioned you like the St. Regis, would you recommend St. Regis over Dorado Beach? If so, why?
Great video.....since u have stayed at both this and the St Regis, which one would you recommend /prefer?
Hello. I would love to come to this resort possibly in May or either in June of next year. What are the best suites, and other activities included in the resort? How was the hospitality in your experience overall ?
GREAT
That room looks expensive. Beautiful.
Hi! Thanks for a great video. How long did you stay and what was the cost?
I work here nice video!!
Nice
Beautiful resort, how was the weather? Was the heat and humidity a problem?
Are the rooms far from all the amenities? I’ve stayed many times at the Ritz in Naples everything is so easily accessible at that resort. ❤️
Hello 👋 👋 👋 👋 Beautiful love it
Was that room on the west beach or east beach?
Thanks for the video! Did you do any excursions? I.E diving, snokeling as apart if the hotel stay?
Howdy! No, I didn’t do any of the excursions as part of my stay. We enjoyed just relaxing on the property the entire time.
Very thorough video, thank you for sharing. Are you traveling around the island of Puerto Rico or just staying in Dorado? I prefer Rincon on the very western tip of the island with the Lighthouse and surfing but you piqued my interest in the area. Can you talk more about the beaches and water there? I saw a lot of rocks so I'm not sure how far out you can swim and is it possible to snorkel and see tropical fish, etc?
Thanks John! I've traveled around Puerto Rico a lot this year, but this trip was just to visit the Ritz-Carlton Reserve at Dorado Beach. It is NOT a good spot for snorkeling (the best snorkeling I found was out at Steps Beach in Rincon, on the other side of the island).
How about kids swimming ???
The tour was beautiful. Was this all inclusive?
Cost? $1,500/night ?
Dorado has always been expensive. But it's exclusive and beautiful.
I agree that is is very expensive, exclusive, and beautiful!
N you are on US grounds !
Very few people on the grounds ? Can you elaborate ? It looks like it was just you staying there.
Did you fly into San Juan International and if so, was airport transfer included or how much did you have to pay?
Hey Omar, yes I flew into SJU. The hotel will arrange a transfer if you want. But you can also easily get a taxi outside baggage claim (large white vans). I had a special situation myself and was able to take an Uber. However Uber pickups are NOT allowed directly at San Juan International airport. You must leave the airport in order to use Uber in Puerto Rico.
DEAR NICK,
GOD BLESS YOU MY FRIEND. I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU AND VERY HAPPY FOR YOU. I HOPE ALL OF YOUR DREAMS COME TRUE. I HOPE YOU HAD THE BEST AND HAPPIEST CHRISTMAS OF YOUR ENTIRE LIFE AND THE BEST AND HAPPIEST 4TH OF JULY OF YOUR ENTIRE LIFE. WOW! IT IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. THE HOTEL AND RESORT IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. I LOVE A PRIVATE RESIDENCE HOME THAT IS RITZ CARLTON DORADO BEACH. IT IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO PUERTO RICO. BY THE LOVE OF GOD AND MY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS I AM GOING TO SEE MANY BEAUTIFUL PLACES ALL OVER THE WORLD. I WILL BREAK DOWN AND CRY WITH COMPLETE GRATITUDE AND HAPPINESS. IT IS ALL A MIRACLE. ALL OF MY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS ARE BEAUTIFUL HUMAN BEINGS WITH BEAUTIFUL HEARTS. I AM INDESCRIBABLY GRATEFUL AND THANKFUL. IT IS ALL FAR BEYOND MY WILDEST DREAMS. I LOVE MR. ESPARZA AND ALL OF MY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS. 🙏
SINCERELY PETER

Looking to stay here but it’s soOOOo expensive. 600+100$ crazy resort fee. Did you book through a travel agent and get a better price?
Oof, yes: very expensive. We actually paid a bit more per night (around $1100). We used a travel agent, or my friend Ramit did, and thanks to that, we were all able to get an awesome upgrade.
