About Las Casitas Village

El Conquistador Resort reopened after the Middle-east oil embargo of the mid-70’s, the subsequent recession, and diminishing island tourism exacted a heavy toll. The reopening came with new additions like the harborside village (La Marina Village) and the hilltop villas (Las Casitas Village), as well as with renovations to Las Brisas, Las Vistas, the lobby, the casino, tennis courts, the convention center, the main pool, the golf course, and a new main parking and remote parking. After the original golf course suffered damages after hurricane Hugo in 1989 the golf course architect Arthur Hills designed a wonderful new 18-hole layout. It continued growing throughout the years with additions such as the Coqui Water Park in 2007, improvements to the funicular, and additional convention space.

After an arduous battle, the resort closed to the public after Hurricane Maria in 2017. The closure was supposed to be temporary for eight months, but almost two years after the hurricane, there were no signs of reopening.

El Conquistador Resort reopened with a refresh and a modern Mediterranean feel. The clean anatomy of its original buildings is an ode to the modernist design. The setting is stunningly scenic. Each building respects where they’re located, as well as responds to their surroundings. Which is why the indoor-outside structure has maintained and improved to enrich the guest experience. The workmanship has stood the test of times and any guest can attest to the aesthetic and use of materials to enhance the view. Royale Blue Hospitality is committed to taking El Conquistador Resort to its most glorious days yet.
