A Quiet Coastal Town That Feels Like a Secret
Dorado is the kind of place travelers whisper about. Just 30 minutes west of San Juan, it’s close to the city but worlds away from the crowds. Once a sleepy fishing village, Dorado has transformed into a hidden gem of luxury and laid-back elegance—without losing its roots.
Tucked inside a lush, gated beachfront community, the Hyatt Dorado Resort blends seamlessly into its tropical surroundings. The property doesn’t shout luxury—it whispers it, through its design, its details, and its sense of peace. It’s not just a place to stay. It’s a place to slow down.
Your Room, Your Sanctuary
Rooms at the Hyatt Dorado feel more like private havens than hotel suites. Floor-to-ceiling windows let nature in, and private terraces blur the line between indoors and out. You might watch the sunrise over the Atlantic from a freestanding soaking tub, or sip your morning coffee as coquí frogs chirp softly from the trees.
The design of each space reflects the island itself—airy, warm, and infused with light. Local wood, soft linen textures, and subtle Caribbean colors create an inviting, lived-in luxury that feels more like a private beach house than a resort suite. At night, open your balcony doors and let the sound of the waves lull you to sleep, or take a moonlit dip in your plunge pool with a chilled drink in hand. I
For an ultra-private escape, book a villa with its own plunge pool and garden patio. Some even come with personal butler service—perfect if you don’t feel like lifting a finger. Let a Scott & Thomas concierge handle your booking to secure exclusive rooms, upgrades, or even villas.
Dining Where the View Is Part of the Menu
At Hyatt Dorado, meals aren’t just about food—they’re about atmosphere, storytelling, and savoring the moment.
Start your day with tropical fruit and coffee by the water. Later, find yourself at Coa, the resort’s standout restaurant, where your meal is grilled over a custom wood-fired hearth. The wine cellar is housed in an underground cave (yes, a real one), and the sommelier might walk you through a private tasting if you ask.
For something more casual, Positivo Sand Bar lets you dine with your toes in the sand, serving sushi, ceviche, and island-inspired cocktails beneath glowing string lights. And Flor de Sal reimagines Puerto Rican classics with modern flair.
More Than a Beach—An Experience
The beach is postcard-worthy, but that’s just the beginning. Hyatt Dorado offers curated activities for travelers who want to do more than lounge.
- Golf: Two 18-hole courses designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. wind through palm groves and oceanfront cliffs.
- The Spa Botánico: Hidden in a tropical garden, this spa uses native herbs, treehouse treatment rooms, and outdoor baths for a one-of-a-kind healing experience.
- Poolside Peace: Multiple pools, including an adults-only area, offer quiet relaxation or family fun with a view.
- Tennis & Pickleball: Lighted courts and private lessons are available if you’re feeling sporty.
Take a Journey Off-Resort
Dorado is more than just pretty beaches. It’s a place where modern luxury meets rich Puerto Rican culture. Spend a morning browsing local art in town, or take a guided food tour through nearby San Juan, where the scent of roasting lechón wafts from street vendors and plazas buzz with salsa music. If you’re up for adventure, head east to hike through El Yunque, the only tropical rainforest in the U.S. National Forest System, where waterfalls and mountain views reward every step.
Or, slow things down with a scenic drive along the north coast, stopping at roadside kiosks for fresh empanadillas and coconut water. Visit hidden beaches like Playa Puerto Nuevo, known for its natural sea pool and dramatic rock formations. For something truly unique, take a bioluminescent bay kayak tour in nearby Laguna Grande, where the water glows at night with every paddle stroke.
