Perched on 300-foot cliffs overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea, El Conquistador
Resort & Golden Door Spa is a peaceful oasis located about 30 south east of San Juan.
This luxurious resort is divided into five villages and the resort is its own all-inclusive
world. A blend of Moorish and Spanish colonial architectures, the village is modeled after
Old San Juan, featuring cobblestone streets, white stucco and terra-cotta buildings,
open-air plazas, greenery, gas lamps and romantic fountains. Within the entire complex
dinning options are extremely plentiful as is the nightlife including a great casino.
Mentioned and pictured on this page is the Grand Hotel portion of the resort featuring ocean and garden view rooms.
The resort is located on the northeastern tip of Puerto Rico, near El Yunque Rain Forest, four miles from the attractions of downtown Fajardo and Las Croabas,
minutes from Las Cabezas Lighthouse and 31 miles from San Juan and Luis Muņoz Marin
International Airport.From the El Conquistador resort its a 12-minute boat ride taking you from the resort's 25-slip marina
to Palomino Island, Las Casitas Village's private island. Here you'll find beaches and
water sports such as wave running, windsurfing, diving, snorkeling, and fishing. The island
provides secluded natural beaches reached by hiking trails from the main beach over the island's hills.
While back at the resort, the Golden Door Spa at Las Casitas Village is one of the finest in Puerto
Rico and will promote your inner tranquility with as well as your cardiovascular and
wellness needs. Sophisticated Golfer recommends the El Conquistador as one of
the finest places to stay in Puerto Rico.
Opened in 1993 and designed by renowned architect Arthur Hills the par 72 golf course at
El Conquistador Resort & Golden Door Spa is challenging yet player-friendly. Cleverly
planned lateral movements and broad openings as well as dramatic elevation changes of
more than 200 feet are the hallmarks of this course. The evaluation changes in particular
are rare among typically flat Caribbean golf course. The course also offers dramatic views
of the majestic El Yunque Rain Forest and sparkling Atlantic Ocean.
Other recommended area golf course to play while staying at the El Conquistador are the
two courses at Palmas del Mar. Palmas Del Mar is located in Humacao about 35 minutes southwest of
the El Conquistador and Las Casitas village. The Flamboyan Course is long and
demanding. Having opened in 1999 and designed by Ress Jones, it's known as one of the top
courses in Puerto Rico. The Palm Course is a Gary Player designed 18 hole course shorter
then its sister course but with more of an emphasis on accuracy.
