“lovely for leisure and doubtless a good business venue too”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

This is a delightful property for a winter getaway. It has all the usual Hilton amenities, a lovely sea view, pleasant casual indoor/outdoor restaurant, and a fine dining place as well. The best part--it seems to attract business groups, who all have to trudge off to their meetings during the day. That leaves the main pool relatively empty, and you'll often have the pool at the golf course to yourself as well. Likewise the beach. It's just a sliver with a rather rocky bottom--if you want to swim, bring water shoes. Staff was highly competent and friendly. We'll be back! ( as soon as we rack up some more Honors points)

It's a quick ride into Ponce which is worth exploring.

“It's pricey but it has everything you'll need”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

person found this review helpful

We stayed in the executive tower with ocean view on the 3rd floor at the southwest corner. Our room was large, tastefully decorated, quiet, fresh and very clean. The room has a large balcony and is near the shoreline. We had the door open the whole night to enjoy the surf-sound. There are several restaurants onsite and we had an excellent dinner at La Cava. The casino appeared to be bustling. There is a large pool as well as ocean beach frontage.

Room Tip: It costs a bit more but the ocean view is worth it.

Dear rick1942:

Thank you so much for your comments about your Executive Tower Stay at the Hilton Ponce Golf & Casino Resort.

Indeed, the unobstructed views of the ocean from the Executive Tower room balconies are breathtaking. In the East and West buildings, however, there are also good views, through the tips of the palms of the coconut grove that nestles the pool area....

Another option, without the views, are the patio rooms, from where you can just walk outside onto the gardens and pool area... for those who prefer not to walk around corridors, elevators or stairways...

We hope you will plan another enjoyable stay at our Resort in the near future.

“Relaxing atmosphere”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 February 2012

person found this review helpful

The grounds and beach are very nice and this would be a great short vacation spot. The rooms aren't as nice as your 'typical' Hilton, but overall the room quality was fine. The staff was very helpful and accomodating. Enjoy a drink and meal at the bar in the pool area, a very nice setting.

My only complaint are the additional costs that can be incurred while staying here. $8 a day to self-park. $20 for breakfast at the restaurant. Noting outrageous, just be aware.

Dear Dan M;

Thank you for your positive review of our Resort after your recent visit.

We offer indeed a relaxing atmosphere, with plenty of open areas and grounds, and amenities and services to make the Hilton Ponce Golf & Casino Resort an enjoyable getaway spot, with comfortable room accommodations.

The Breakfast price you quote corresponds to the Full Hot and Cold buffet we serve at La Terraza Restaurant, with cooked-to-order eggs and omelette station, and a variety of bakery, fruits, cereals, etc... Other options like A La Carte or Continental breakfast are also available, especially for those a little health (or diet) conscious !

We hoope you will consider our destination for a leisure visit, and maybe take advantage of some specials and promotions with added values such as breakfast included rates, and Family or Resort Dining discounts..?

Thank you again for taking the time to write about your us!

We again took our annual trip to this hotel. We had a wonderful trip. The hospitality at this hotel is always wonderful. The employees always have a smile. LaCava, their high end restaurant is the best kept secret on the island. Great food,superior service and lots of fine wine. Cannot wait for next year..

“Costa Caribe Golf & Country Club Resort”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 January 2012

We went to my best friends wedding at the restaurant and we loved staying at the villas. So nice and so quiet. We are from Ponce and had a great time. There is so much to do. The villas are very spacious and the decor is very modern and tropical. The housekeeper was very friendly and made us feel at home. We enjoyed all The Hilton's amenities. If you go with a group of friends this is a must!!! Its like being at home on your vacation. I believe they also sell the villas.
