Secluded Resort with Beach Access and Casino
Review From: NexTag Editorial Review, Jun 9, 2008
Secluded on the eastern boundary of Isla Verde, the Courtyard Marriott San Juan Isla Verde Beach Resort offers a quiet atmosphere perfect for relaxation. While the location is closed off from the residential area, it is also within easy walking distance to many of the city's shops and restaurants. A mile-long beach occupies the space in front of the resort, offering plenty of space for guests to lounge around. This 12-story mustard-brown building features 299 midsize guest rooms with air conditioning. All rooms are decorated in art-deco style and have balconies with water views. Amenities include a coffeemaker, ironing board, refrigerator, and hair dryer. Business travelers will appreciate the large work desk with ergonomic chair, data port telephone, and high-speed Internet access. One of the main draws of the hotel is its 14,000-square-foot casino. With over 400 slot machines and a wide array of table games including blackjack, craps, and Caribbean stud poker, this casino offers something for every taste. The casino also features a supervised kids' club where children can play video and board games while parents go off to play their games. Non-gamblers can enjoy the freeform pool with swim-up bar or relax in the spa tub. Other facilities include a fitness center, three restaurants, and an ice cream parlor. Overall, this resort offers something for every member of the family, from pristine beaches to casino games and fine dining.
