A Culinary Odyssey
Dining at Dorado Beach is an art form—one where the freshest ingredients, visionary chefs, and breathtaking ocean views come together to create a gastronomic experience unlike any other. Whether savoring wood-fired specialties at COA, indulging in an intimate Omakase experience curated by world-renowned Chef Masato, or toasting to sunset hues at the COA Lounge, every meal is a sensory journey. For those drawn to the fusion of Asian and Latin flavors, Positivo Sand Bar offers a beachfront dining experience where the sea breeze pairs effortlessly with handcrafted cocktails. Meanwhile, Flor de Sal elevates al fresco dining with an Italian and Mediterranean-inspired menu, creating the perfect setting for leisurely evenings under the stars.
Nestled on the scenic shores of West Beach within the exclusive Encanto Beach Club, Encanto Beach Bar & Grill offers an exquisite dining experience framed by ocean views and breathtaking sunsets. Guided by the culinary artistry of Chef Mario Pagán, this refined beachfront haven invites guests on a global journey of flavors, where every dish is a masterful blend of innovation and tradition.
For gourmet provisions, La Cocina Gourmet Market offers artisanal delights, Puerto Rican coffee, and house-made gelato, while private in-residence dining allows residents to enjoy the Ritz-Carlton’s impeccable service in the privacy of their penthouse or beachfront cabana.
Casual Dining in First-Class Surroundings
This social-vibe restaurant and bar, Panela, evokes the simplicity of contemporary cuisine. Panela’s all-day menu features the Chef's weekly special, fresh market salads, shareable appetizers, and hearty entrées—each infused with unexpected local flavors for a distinctive twist.
Wellness & Rejuvenation
Nestled within the lush embrace of Dorado Beach, Spa Botanico is a sanctuary for the senses—an immersive retreat where time slows, and nature restores. Here, ancient healing traditions meet modern luxury, with holistic treatments offered in hidden treatment pavilions surrounded by verdant tropical gardens. The infinity reflection pool and aromatic pineapple garden set a tranquil stage for unparalleled rejuvenation, while an extensive menu of bespoke therapies ensures a deeply personalized wellness journey.
For those seeking movement and vitality, the resort features multiple state-of-the-art fitness centers, alongside an impressive array of recreational courts, including pickleball, tennis, basketball, and beach volleyball. A private soccer field invites spontaneous matches, while the resort’s two championship golf courses—crafted by the legendary Robert Trent Jones, Sr. and Jr.—challenge and inspire players with sweeping ocean vistas and meticulously contoured fairways.
A Playground for Adventure
More than a destination, Dorado Beach is a living landscape, one meant to be explored. The legendary Rockefeller Nature Trail winds through 11 miles of lush terrain, inviting residents to traverse its beauty on foot, by bike, or via golf cart. For those drawn to the water, the Ambassadors of the Environment program—curated by Jean-Michel Cousteau—offers immersive eco-adventures, from coral reef snorkeling and underwater photography to guided forest hikes under a starlit sky. And for those with a passion for the waves, Goodwinds Surf Boutique at Barlovento Beach provides access to the finest designer beachwear, along with expert instruction in kite surfing, paddleboarding, and sailing.

Unlike any other Ritz-Carlton residences in the world, the West Beach Residences are uniquely positioned directly on the sands of Rockefeller Beach. With private cabanas and personalized beachfront dining—exclusively available to West Beach residents—this is a rarefied experience that redefines oceanfront living. Whether indulging in the convenience of a gourmet meal served at the water’s edge or simply basking in the unparalleled beauty of Dorado’s coastline, every moment here is an exquisite testament to the art of luxury.
