For families looking to go away on vacation someplace tropical without leaving U.S. ground, Puerto Rico is the perfect place. You don’t need a passport, there are direct flights from many U.S. cities, the currency is the dollar, and everyone speaks English. It’s the ideal place for those who like the creature comforts of home, but want the feel of an island getaway.
The San Juan Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino (www.marriott.com/sjupr; 888.817.2033) just completed a $35 million renovation and redesign making it a top destination for families.
The redesign creates a chic and stylish Caribbean resort that features state of the art technology in all 525 guestrooms as well as adding such creature comforts as Marriott’s new Revive bedding. Each bedroom features 300-thread count sheets, down comforters, sheeted duvet covers, thick mattresses with plush toppers and fluffier pillows. All bathrooms were completed renovated to incorporate such features as rain shower style shower heads and deep bathtubs. High tech additions include ergonomically designed desks and chairs, wireless Internet in all the rooms and 36-inch flat screen LCD TVs.
