LOCATION

Villa Dorada is located inside the Dorado Beach Resort in Dorado, Puerto Rico. This community is famous for its gorgeous tropical grounds and beautiful beach. This is a safe and gated community that is great for families and anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing vacation in the tropics. Villa Dorada is a 40-minute drive from San Juan and the Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport.

Besides enjoying the beautiful villa and all amenities on offer, there are many things to do in the surrounding areas, here are some of our favorites:

Explore the local culinary scene with everything from local Puerto Rican food to excellent Italian and Mexican options.

Road trip to the Cerro Gordo Public Beach or walk down the shore to Dorado Public Beaches. Both of these are long sandy beaches that are well protected from swell and are a 5-minute drive from the villa.

Explore the Camuy Caves – a huge cave system about an hour's drive away that is home to the third-longest underwater river in the world.

Spend a day in Old San Juan, a 30 min drive away and the oldest city in all of the US.
