La Concha Resort, Puerto Rico, Autograph Collection
About this hotel
The infinity pool is the signature here, its edge appearing to dissolve straight into Condado Beach and the Atlantic beyond, with a sundeck of loungers and a poolside bar for drinks through the afternoon. Rooms are large, with private sea-view balconies, floor-to-ceiling windows, flat-screen smart TVs and work desks, brightly decorated rather than dark or heavy. Several dining rooms cover breakfast through dinner without guests needing to leave the property, and a fitness centre with cardio equipment and free weights, plus free bike rental along the boardwalk, round out a stay built around beach, pool and food in equal measure. The scale of the property means there is almost always a quiet corner of the sundeck or a table free at one of the restaurants, even when the pool deck itself is busy.
