On 18 August 2026, the former Courtyard by Marriott on Puerto Rico's Isla Verde strip transformed into the full-service Marriott Isla Verde Beach Resort following a US$38 million overhaul. The 260-room property, which has direct access to the island's celebrated beach, opened its new flag in San Juan after a nearly three-year renovation, allowing it to retain its operating status.
The Marriott Isla Verde joins a growing hotel district that includes a Hyatt Centric and other upcoming luxury properties. In 2025, Puerto Rico's tourism market reached new highs, with the Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport handling over 6.8 million passenger arrivals, a 3% increase from the previous year. Lodging demand surged to nearly 7.9 million room nights, an 8% rise compared to 2024.
The Marriott Isla Verde's rebranding allows it to compete for higher daily rates and longer stays, capitalizing on the island's strong tourism growth momentum.
