Condado Plaza Hotel
Hotel Information: Condado Plaza Hotel & Casino comprises two 10-story towers flanking the Condado district's main street and linked by a second-story covered walkway. One tower overlooks the Atlantic Ocean; the other overlooks Condado Lagoon. The resort hosts passengers arriving or departing from San Juan's cruise-ship piers 3.5 km (2.25 mi) away and families attracted by the pool complex with waterslide and the calm-water beach.
Amenity highlights: A freeform pool features a waterslide and swim-up bar. Adjacent is a freeform children's pool. A saltwater "quiet" pool and two spa tubs are isolated along the oceanfront. The protected beach faces a calm-water lagoon and offers water sports. Two lighted tennis courts, a complimentary fitness center, and arcade are also on the property. The resort's 25,000-square-foot casino, open 24 hours, includes slot machines, blackjack, mini-baccarat, craps, poker, and roulette.
Insider tip: Suspended above Condado Lagoon between the resort’s two tennis courts, a little-noticed octagonal gazebo offers views of the tranquil lagoon during the day and city lights reflected by the lagoon at night.
