Palmas
Del Mar
A Puerto Rico resort expands
From the April 22, 2002 Issue of New York
Renovating after Hurricane Georges, the owners of Puerto Rico's Palmas
del Mar Resort & Villas added 152 spacious one-, two-, and three-bedroom
Caribbean casitas that now constitute the Candelero Resort, 45 minutes
by car from San Juan. Once there, stock your fridge from the local
store, then head for the beach just a short walk away. Or rent a cart
and cruise to the Candelero golf course, abutting the sea. In the
event of rain, sip rum on your balcony or take a taxi to the El Yunque
rain forest, where a two-hour climb through the drenched jungle dispels
any thoughts of the urban one you left behind.
