Condado Ocean Club

San Juan's Condado Beach sits just outside the door, and Condado Ocean Club takes its cue from the water on both sides of the building. Rooms split into two views: the Laguna del Condado, still and skyline-lit at dusk, or the Atlantic, working in under the wide windows in shades of turquoise. It is an adults-only hotel, built for quiet and for weekends both. Premium Laguna View and Premium Ocean View rooms each run 325 sq ft, with a king bed or two queens. Condado Ocean Balcony rooms, on the third floor, add a 160 sq ft furnished terrace over the Atlantic, close to the hotel's social rooms. The Atlantic Ocean Terrace room, largest in the house, holds a 282 sq ft oceanfront terrace and one king bed. Every room carries a 55-inch smart TV, an in-room safe and a stocked mini-bar. Downstairs, THE DECK gathers poolside loungers and private cabanas above the sand, with drinks at JADE and a fitness room for those who want it. You can hear the Atlantic from the balcony rooms after dark. Dining across the Condado Collection charges straight to the room. It is a compact stay, built around two shorelines and not much else.
