Condado Vanderbilt

The stylish Condado District of San Juan.

The 300 rooms at the Vanderbilt are light and spacious, with dark wood furniture and botanical-based bathroom products. In addition to this, two new towers hold over 100 suites, each with balconies offering sweeping ocean views, marble floors and locally-sourced artwork.

Acclaimed chef Juan José Cuevas is the mastermind behind the Vanderbilt’s two restaurants: 1909, the fine dining option offering world cuisine, and Ola Oceanfront Bistro, a 1950’s style eatery which emphasises local Puerto Rican cooking. During the evenings, enjoy appetizers and cocktails at the vibrant Vanderbilt Court – the hotel’s bar and lounge that makes the most of those all encompassing ocean views.

Spend some time at the hotel’s 10,000 square foot spa, and enjoy a few laps in one of the five pools – one complete with a waterfall and another with an infinity edge. Surrounding the hotel, peruse the luxury boutiques along trendy Ashford Avenue, take a deep sea fishing voyage from the nearby nautical club, or explore the Spanish heritage of old San Juan.
