How to Have a Pool Day in Condado

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - March 9, 2017

Lounging by the pool at any Caribbean resort is a good thing, but at San Juan, Puerto Rico’s Condado Plaza Hilton, the essential experience is getting even better.

That’s because the Avenida Ashford hotel has just launched a pair of packages designed to elevate poolside relaxation from “pretty good” to “almost perfect.”

The new VIP half-day pool package includes use of lounge chairs, a side table and umbrella; a hammock for afternoon snoozes; and chilled water delivered to your chaise by a personal attendant.

Guests can also take advantage of a 10-percent discount on hour-long massages in the pool cabana, and on one-hour watersports rentals at Iguana Water Sports.

Choose the full-day VIP experience and you’ll reap all the benefits of the half-day package, as well as a fruit platter, bottle of red or white wine, and a 20 percent discount on a one-hour poolside cabana massage.

The pool packages cost $100 for a half-day and $200 for a full day.
