L Conch Resort, one of San Juan’s most iconic beachfront destinations, proudly announces its official transition to the prestigious Autograph Collection, part of Marriott Bonvoy’s portfolio of more than 30 hotel brands, marking a transformative new chapter for the resort as La Concha Resort, Puerto Rico, an Autograph Collection Hotel. This milestone coincides with the completion of an extensive property-wide renovation, highlighted by the unveiling of the fully reimagined Suite Tower featuring 238 newly redesigned rooms and indulging suites.
“This is a landmark moment for La Concha Resort and for Puerto Rico’s premium hospitality scene,” said Mike Rivera, General Manager. “Our encompassing renovation and transition to Autograph Collection, allows us to elevate every aspect of our guests’ experience - from the thoughtfully redesigned suites to an immersive, elevated culinary scene, and personalized moments like our new cocktail program and wellness offerings.”
The newly renovated accommodations designed by Celano Design, redefine modern sophistication and emphasize the hotel’s oceanfront location featuring spacious suites including separate lounge and bedroom areas, custom marble-flooring within residential-style bathrooms, private balconies, and floor-to-ceiling windows offering sweeping ocean views. Upon entry into the refreshed suites, guests arrive into an inviting living space featuring a soothing color palette of whites, bone, gray, and teal, evoking the tropical-modern aesthetic that La Concha Resort is renowned for. A statement sculpture inspired by native plants from Puerto Rico adds texture and scale to the rooms while a wood console with carved panels brings warmth to the space. To further enforce San Juan’s playful energy, a polished stainless steel bar cart offers guests the best local rum, beverages, and snacks, encouraging guests to fully immerse into the Puerto Rican culture.
“Puerto Rico continues to captivate travelers with its rich culture, natural beauty, and vibrant energy,” said Brian King, President, Marriott International, Caribbean and Latin America. “La Concha Resort’s transformation and debut as the first Autograph Collection hotel on the island is a testament to the destination’s growing appeal. This iconic property embodies the spirit of individuality and local culture that defines the Autograph Collection. We are proud to welcome La Concha to our portfolio and look forward to offering guests an elevated, authentic experience in one of the region’s most vibrant destinations.”
As the first Autograph Collection Hotel in Puerto Rico, La Concha Resort joins Marriott Bonvoy’s distinctive premium tier of more than 330 hand-selected properties worldwide known for their unique design and authentic experiences. This transition solidifies La Concha’s status as one of Puerto Rico’s premier resort destinations, offering an added layer of exclusivity and elevated service.
