Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H), Interlink and Vivo Beach Club today announced the opening of Hyatt Centric San Juan Isla Verde, marking the first Hyatt Centric branded hotel in Puerto Rico. Located in one of Puerto Rico’s most celebrated neighborhoods, the hotel is walking distance to the award-winning Isla Verde Beach, vibrant restaurants, nightlife, and shopping, placing savvy travelers in the middle of the action. A five-minute drive from Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport, the hotel provides easy access to the historic colonial district of Old San Juan, El Yunque National Rain Forest, San Juan’s Financial District, and the Puerto Rico Convention District.

Following the completion of a $30-million-dollar transformation from the former Verdanza Hotel, the newly renovated Hyatt Centric San Juan Isla Verde features 223 thoughtfully designed guestrooms and suites with city and partial ocean views. The guestroom design draws inspiration from Puerto Rico’s natural beauty, including the surrounding Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, sea corals, and mountains—incorporating vibrant textures, contemporary touches, and locally inspired details that reflect the culture and spirit of the island. Lead interior design and architecture firms involved in the project include V Architecture, 3MG, Baskerville and landscape architect EDSA.

Enhancing the experience, guests can enjoy complimentary access and shuttle service to Vivo Beach Club, an oceanfront private beach club in a resort-like atmosphere designed for guests of all ages. The club features three pools, four restaurants and bars, the award-winning Ocean Lab Brewing Co. micro-brewery, and an outdoor concert stage with capacity for 3,500 people, recognized as one of the top music venues in Puerto Rico.

The hotel offers a resort-style pool deck and jacuzzi with an open-air restaurant and bar, a 24-hour fitness center, and a kid-friendly splash pad. The hotel is also pet-friendly, welcoming four-legged companions with dedicated amenities.

Hyatt Centric San Juan Isla Verde is home to two distinct food and beverage experiences, including:

Alba – a full-service culinary experience inspired by Puerto Rican flavors, open from 6:30am – 10:00pm.
Espresso Lab – a coffee concept offering local favorites and artisanal selections, open from 6:30am – 6:00pm.

Renowned Puerto Rican chef, Efraín Cruz, is the hotel’s Executive Chef overseeing the culinary offering of each outlet, events and banquets.

With over 16,000 sq. ft. of indoor and outdoor meeting and event space, including a rooftop terrace with ocean views, the hotel offers versatile venues well-suited for corporate gatherings, social celebrations, and creative meetings. From intimate boardrooms to large ballrooms and open-air spaces with modern technology, each setting is designed with flexibility and creativity in mind.

Hyatt Centric San Juan Isla Verde marks the sixth Hyatt hotel in Puerto Rico, joining Hyatt Place San Juan and Hyatt House San Juan, Hyatt Place Bayamon, Hyatt Place Manati and Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve Puerto Rico. The hotel is managed by Highgate Hotels, an industry-leading hotel management firm, with a diverse portfolio of hotels across North America, the Caribbean, Latin America, and Europe, including three other hotels in Puerto Rico.
