Located within and around three nature reserves along 3.2 kilometers of palm-fringed beach, the newly renovated Four Seasons Resort and Residences Puerto Rico opens its doors with an experiences program that connects guests with the natural beauty, vibrant culture and authentic spirit of the island.
“In Puerto Rico, we have found a truly exceptional setting, surrounded by immense natural beauty and ideally located for travelers who wish to explore the best the island has to offer with Four Seasons,” said Rainer Stampfer, President of Global Operations for Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts. “Together with our visionary owners of Paulson Puerto Rico, we are proud to present the newest jewel in the Four Seasons resort collection in the Caribbean, where our signature service and unparalleled experiences will define every stay.”
Complete redesign: renewed hospitality and new experiences
Already recognized as a favorite destination for sun lovers, the resort now features significant renovations, including the redesign of all rooms and suites, as well as updated interiors in Casa Grande—the welcome area with its oceanfront terrace—and in the Lobby Lounge, by the award-winning design studio Meyer Davis. The addition of a light and luminous color palette brings texture, warmth, and harmony, connecting each space to the diverse landscapes surrounding the resort.
The resort also debuts new culinary concepts, an expanded Racquet Center and a variety of experiences focused on nature and cultural exploration, solidifying its position as a complete destination for travelers of all ages and styles.
A natural paradise
Just half an hour from San Juan Airport, the resort is nestled within a 195-hectare private nature reserve, surrounded by two protected sanctuaries. Guests can explore over 11 kilometers of trails, bike paths, and canals, either independently or with expert guides who introduce the island's unique flora and fauna, including more than 50 species of birds and leatherback turtles that breed here each spring and summer.
The resort's commitment to conservation and sustainability includes community education initiatives, an animal sanctuary and a pet shelter, inviting guests of all ages to support local conservation efforts.
Authentic Puerto Rico
Guests at Four Seasons can enjoy a variety of unique Puerto Rican experiences that celebrate its rich history and vibrant culture, from meaningful local traditions to inspiring culinary celebrations.
Executive Chef Víctor Rosado boasts a deep passion for the cuisine of his native country, which dates back to his childhood cooking with his grandparents and has been further fueled by his work with renowned chefs such as Jean-Georges Vongerichten and José Andrés. The resort features ten dining options and bars, including:
Bembe, a lively lobby lounge that pays homage to Puerto Rico's tropical rums and cocktails, features live music and reinterpretations of popular street food.
Paros offers Mediterranean cuisine with local seafood, organic produce, and Caribbean herbs.
Seagrapes is an open-air restaurant serving the catch of the day.
A specialty sushi pop-up is also available.
Turtle's Nest is a relaxed beachfront bar.
Sand Dollar offers an intimate, private dining experience overlooking the ocean.
The resort also offers food walks and guided walking tours of Old San Juan, where visitors discover iconic landmarks like the 16th-century El Morro fortress through the eyes of expert guides who tailor each tour to the group's interests. The concierge team is available to recommend restaurants and bars off the beaten path in picturesque towns and coastal communities like Flamenco Beach in Culebra, famous for its white sand, turquoise waters, and military tank remnants. With local artisan shops, elegant boutiques, emerging designers, and the Mall of San Juan, many visitors will even want to bring an extra suitcase.
Top-tier adventures: Active experiences at Four Seasons
Hugging the resort's coastline is Bahía Beach Golf Club, a sanctuary with the prestigious Audubon International Silver Signature designation. This club boasts an 18-hole golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., a driving range with a simulator and other training areas, as well as a pro shop, equipment rentals, and comprehensive support from a staff of golf professionals, including expert caddies familiar with the course's challenges and opportunities. The recently expanded Racquet Centre offers tennis, pickleball, and padel courts, with equipment rentals and lessons taught by experts.
The Boat House, situated on the shores of one of the property's private lakes, is the ideal starting point for exploring the resort's network of canals and ponds or simply for enjoying the inflatable water park. There is also a water sports center with kitesurfing and windsurfing, and catch-and-release fishing on the lakes. Two fully equipped gyms, one in the spa and the other in the Racquet Center, complete the sports facilities.
Flow in tropical tranquility
Guests can choose between the beach and the resort's two pools, both with private cabanas and lounge chairs. The staff is always on hand with drinks, snacks, and special services such as sunglasses cleaning and refreshing facial sprays. For those seeking a different kind of experience, the perfect plan might be a leisurely stroll along the nature trails, perhaps with a stop at the hammock garden, or a walk or horseback ride on the beach, followed by a relaxed lunch by the sea.
The spa is an oasis of well-being, with ten treatment rooms, relaxation areas, a sauna, steam room, hot and cold plunge pools, and much more. Couples and wedding groups will especially appreciate its beauty salon, ideal for beauty treatments, hairstyling, and manicures.
Unforgettable family stays
With a long beach and a family pool with shallow areas, the resort is ideal for families of all sizes. Plus, fun in and out of the water is guaranteed in the family cabanas.
At the Tortuga Kids' Club, a supervised, full-time space offering the complimentary Kids For All Seasons program for children ages 4 to 12, young Four Seasons guests can enjoy beach games, arts and crafts, and local crafts. Parents will also appreciate the various connecting room options, children's menus, complimentary dinner for children under five, and babysitting services for when adults want to enjoy an evening on their own.
The Villa & Residential Rentals program is perfect for those seeking more space and privacy, with equipped kitchens, terraces, private pools with ocean views, and a dedicated Residence Host to coordinate everything from golf outings to private chef dinners.
