This. Stay at Ritz Dorado which is an elevated reserve Ritz. It's lovely and checks the boxes you want.

Yeah they don't exactly have the best reputation over there...


What’s the gossip? Last I heard Alex left Sarah’s agency but the quality hadn’t gone down for either. Know people spending a lot (like $100K+ annually) w each of their firms and they seem happy.

I second this. Just got back. Weather is perfect this time of year and the flight is direct to San Juan.

Bad suggestion. Neither of those hotels are luxury. Both are rundown with bad food and mediocre service.

Since OP wants to take this trip "in the next week," she has the advantage of being able to look at current forecasts. Palm Beach is barely going to crack 80 degrees over the next 10 days. I don't consider that warm, beachy weather.


Sounds better temperatures than here. I wouldn't want temps in the 90s and above because those are uncomfortable. Isn't Hawaii consistently 82, which is nice.
