Overview
Dorado Beach is a sanctuary of magnificence and tranquility,
tucked away on Puerto Rico's Atlantic coast. Situated on 1,400 acres of the
former Laurance Rockefeller estate, Dorado Beach, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve is an
intimate refuge offering a true sense of barefoot elegance. Created as an
open-air enclave infused with references to the surrounding natural landscape
and diverse culture, Dorado Beach is a true luxury sanctuary designed to allure
the world's most discerning travelers through a bevy of one-of-a-kind lifestyle
activities. Guests can also unwind at the award-winning Spa Botánico, a
five-acre spa sanctuary built on a pineapple field that blends Puerto Rican
ingredients and soothing indigenous traditions to impart a holistic sense of
well-being.
In 2018, Dorado Beach, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve underwent an
exciting transformation and reemerged more spectacularly than ever, breathing
new life into a magnificent piece of earth, 60 years after Laurance Rockefeller

suites was enhanced with a reimagined color palette and the Reserve’s sprawling
grounds saw the addition of more than 300,000 new plant specimens.

the 21st century with a subtle rebirth as a modern masterpiece. Ultra-dwarf
Champion Bermuda grass greens with a mixture Zoysia and 419 Bermuda grass on

Original panoramic sight lines to the ocean have been restored on

contoured bunker complexes. New ultra-dwarf Champion Bermuda greens support
