The St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort is delighted to announce that the magnificent beachfront property has earned AAA’s Five Diamond Rating, solidifying its position as the leader in luxury in the Caribbean. Since 2011, only five other hotels throughout the Caribbean islands have received the prestigious accolade, and The St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort is the only property in Puerto Rico to hold this honor as well. Furthermore, fewer than one-half percent of more than 31,000 properties recognized by AAA throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the Caribbean are approved by the organization to have obtained this achievement.
“On behalf of The St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort, we are incredibly pleased and honored that the property has been rewarded with AAA’s most esteemed honor of the Five Diamond Rating,” General Manager Terry Bechtold states. “The coveted designation supports the position as the resort as the leader in luxury hospitality in the Caribbean, a reputation which serves as the result of the resort’s exceptional amenities, stunning natural surroundings, and bespoke service which we provide our guests within the ultimate island escape.”
The Five Diamond Rating is received less than two years after The St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort’s opening in November 2010, and reflects the resort’s unprecedented, personalized service and unmatched level of luxury in Puerto Rico. As the AAA Diamond Rating Process is one of North America’s premier hotel rating programs, properties selected for evaluation must meet 27 essential requirements based on member expectations including cleanliness, comfort, security, and safety, before being assigned a rating of one to five AAA Diamonds.
Properties with the Five Diamond Rating reflect the ultimate in luxury and sophistication, which The St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort continuously demonstrates with its unparalleled offerings. The specific rating at this level requires that first class accommodations, extraordinary physical attributes in every manner, and fundamental hallmarks meticulously serve and exceed all guest expectations while maintaining an impeccable standard of excellence.
Located on a two-mile stretch of private beach and nestled between the El Yunque National Forest and the tranquil waters of the Espiritu Santo River, The St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort represents St. Regis’ first Caribbean resort. Set on 483 pristine acres, the property is the first and only Gold-certified Audubon Signature Sanctuary in Puerto Rico, committed to preserving the resort’s surrounding nature. Designed by acclaimed architectural firm Hill Glazier, the resort boasts 139 luxuriously appointed guest rooms, including 35 suites with private terraces offering spectacular ocean views as well as 25 private St. Regis Estate Homes. The magnificent resort offers St. Regis’ legendary Butler Service and features a 10,000 square foot Remčde Spa and an ocean-front golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., in addition to Jean-Georges’ Fern. Combining Puerto Rico’s timeless natural beauty and rich colonial history, The St. Regis Bahia Beach Resort’s arrival on the shores of Puerto Rico has forever changed the landscape of luxury travel in the region.
