On a tropical island. In the Caribbean

A majestic rain forest. Three magical bioluminescent bays. An amazing ancient underground cave system. Our Island’s natural attractions are sure to take your attendees’ breath away. And as luscious as the landscape, so is our food. Considered the culinary capital of the Caribbean, with its incredible array of world-class restaurants and chefs, Puerto Rico is an epicurean’s heaven. The same can also be said for shopping—from large international venues to unique boutiques. When the sun goes down, the Island sizzles with clubs, casinos, lounges and libations. Set in a centuries-old capital city that’s a designated World Heritage site, a visit to our picturesque cobblestoned streets is an unforgettable experience.

Experience it all

If golf is your game then Puerto Rico is the place to tee off. Most of the Island's championship courses were designed by such luminaries as Robert Trent Jones, his son, Rees Jones, Greg Norman, George and Tom Fazio, Jack Nicklaus, Arthur Hill and Puerto Rico's own Chi Chi Rodríguez. 

Play to your heart's content amid tropical breezes and lush greens with views of the white sand beaches and the ocean's blue waters. Several of our golf courses are part of world-class resorts, so after a round of golf, you can relax by the pool and gear up for your next game.
