This is a Marriott flagged hotel located at 1077 Ashford Ave, San Juan, 00907, Puerto Rico. Its in the Coronado Beach section of San Juan. We were there for a short (four day) vacation.

We made the reservation shortly before the recent earthquakes in Puerto Rico. If we hadn't made the reservation we might not have gone to Puerto Rico. However, the earthquakes were on the other side of the Island and we saw no damage from it either in the hotel itself or the surrounding properties .

I loved the hotel. There are several pools, some designated for adults and some families. You are right next to a beach that is not very large but is certainly sufficient. Each day we were there, the tides were really strong and there were red flags out that indicate swimming is not permitted. Some people (myself included) did go in but never very far. I don't know if this is typical or we just were unlucky. Also be aware, there are no lifeguards either at the beach or the pool.

The hotel seemed to have lots of college kids on the weekend and was kind of loud and crazy in the lobby. However most of the time it was more sedate and seemed to have a nice, friendly, diverse clientele. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful.

There are several restaurants at the hotel. As you would expect of an upscale resort hotel the restaurants are on the expensive side. There are many reasonably priced restaurants on Ashford Avenue and the streets near there . We ended up eating one meal in the hotel and the others in the restaurants nearby. There is also a CVS nearby as well as reasonably priced souvenir shops We felt safe walking around after dark.

There is a casino at the hotel but its small and not too lively. There is a larger fancier casino in the other Marriott Hotel a short distance down Ashford Avenue.

In summary we loved the hotel. It was fancy but not overly formal . We definitely might come there again
