Melia Hotels & Resorts today announced the official reopening of Melia Coco Beach scheduled for December 15, 2018.

Located within a gated community and surrounded by reef-protected beaches and El Yunque National Forest, the resort is undergoing a multimillion-dollar renovation that will result in upgraded amenities, an infusion of local culture, and Melia-branded services including its premium service concept, THE LEVEL.

“Following the devastating effects of Hurricane Maria, we are rebuilding Melia Coco Beach and showing our commitment to the island of Puerto Rico. Melia Coco Beach will offer the high standard of accommodations that our guests have come to expect of Melia Hotels & Resorts,” said Alvaro Tejeda, regional vice president, the Americas. “We’re excited to welcome guests back for a beautiful escape on the island of Puerto Rico.”

Melia Coco Beach’s privileged location is a quick 20-minute transfer from the airport to the front desk. The resort will offer 486 guest rooms, inclusive of 480 Junior Suites and six oceanfront villas, offering travelers the largest standard room product on the island. Showcasing the stunning elements of the surrounding landscape, all rooms have been completely redesigned and focus on using light, natural colors alongside comforting patterns and contain warm, traditional decor. Each room is housed in a two-story bungalow with picturesque views of the ocean and lush gardens throughout the property. Additionally, the resort will feature a variety of restaurants offering international cuisine to suit all tastes.

For the most discerning traveler, Melia Coco Beach will offer THE LEVEL, with 126 Junior Suites and six oceanfront villas featuring the brand’s signature elevated service concept. THE LEVEL guests receive access to a private lounge with premium beverages and light bites served throughout the day, a pool for blissful relaxation, preferential bookings at additional on-property restaurants, concierge service and superior in-room amenities.

The new 41,280-square-foot meeting and event space have been designed to accommodate various size groups and features video mapping and state-of-the-art technology. The space includes an expansive ballroom that is perfect for any size meeting or event and a foyer with floor-to-ceiling windows.

Additional services and amenities include Romance by Melia with curated packages designed for weddings, honeymoons and other special occasions, and a Spa, offering a bevy of restorative treatments including facials, massages and more. Guests of Melia Coco Beach also receive discounted greens fees, tee times, private lessons and club storage at two 18-hole championship courses designed by PGA professional Tom Kite at Coco Beach Golf & Country Club, which hosts the PGA Tour event in Puerto Rico.
