A Legacy of Luxury

Reimagined

The resort carries a storied legacy, originally envisioned and developed in the late 1950s by Laurance Rockefeller during Puerto Rico’s golden age as a premier travel destination.

When the Ritz-Carlton Reserve team undertook its transformation decades later, their mission was to honor Rockefeller’s original vision—elevating the resort’s hallmark elements of luxury, serenity, and environmental harmony. The result is a reimagined sanctuary that has quickly risen to global acclaim, celebrated as one of the world’s most exceptional and iconic resorts.
