La Puntilla room spans 1,500 square feet and features shuttered doors that swing open onto a balcony view of the historic port and bay area. Planners will find two additional event rooms – with 1,280 and 1,800 square feet, respectively – as well as a dedicated boardroom and the 1,000-square-foot Kueros Bay Terrace.
With its signature blue hue, Hotel Rumbao is a standout on Old San Juan’s historic waterfront. The hotel is a short walk from the Port of San Juan, and a 20-minute drive from Luis Munoz International Airport. The property is steps away from shopping, art galleries, museums and restaurants.
The hotel’s new interior design features a color palette inspired by Caribbean flair with elements of greenery and natural woods. Large windows deliver water views and old city charm to guest rooms, while furnishings and accessories add a geometric and colorful sense to the design.
