Sheraton Puerto Rico Resort & Casino
Entertainment City PH | PLANTATION, Fla. — July 21, 2025 — Marriott International is flipping the script on Caribbean travel this year, spotlighting the underrated magic of a summer vacation across its premier resorts in the region. While the Caribbean is often seen as a winter escape, Marriott is inviting globetrotters to experience its sun-soaked destinations with fewer crowds, better rates, and vibrant seasonal celebrations from July through August.
What’s New?
Barbados bursts to life with its iconic Crop Over Festival, a high-energy celebration marking the end of sugarcane harvest season. Expect streets filled with color, calypso beats, and local joy. Marriott’s Courtyard Bridgetown Barbados is a chic and refreshed stay option, now boasting a newly redesigned lobby and social spaces.
In Puerto Rico, the spotlight turns to music and heritage. The island’s summer concert circuit is alive with Boricua pride, and Marriott’s Sheraton Puerto Rico Resort & Casino and San Juan Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino are offering exclusive packages to align with the island’s biggest music moments.
Aruba is ideal for summer travelers looking for guaranteed sunshine, as it’s located outside the hurricane belt. Adventure-seekers can choose from three stunning beachfront properties:
- The Ritz-Carlton, Aruba with a 15,000-sq-ft spa rooted in island traditions
- Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino, which includes an adults-only pool and lively gaming scene
- The newly launched St. Regis Aruba Resort, which features luxury butler service and access to a pristine white-sand beach
Dive Into Summer’s Wild Side
The Cayman Islands are calling all divers. From Grand Cayman Marriott Resort, guests can hop a free shuttle to hotspots like Public Beach or Governor’s Beach—or book a scuba adventure along the world-famous Seven Mile Beach.
In Curaçao, the Curaçao Marriott Beach Resort makes underwater exploration easy with an on-site dive center, Goby Divers. Travelers can rent gear, join guided dives, or take part in marine conservation by snorkeling to a live coral nursery through the resort’s partnership with Reef Renewal Curaçao.
And for travelers looking to truly unwind, The Westin Puntacana Resort in the Dominican Republic is a sanctuary of wellness and slow living. Think beach journaling, peaceful eco hikes, or simply drifting under palm trees. The surrounding ecological reserve also invites deeper connection through snorkeling, birdwatching, and nature exploration.
A Different Kind of Summer
Marriott’s Caribbean collection offers more than stunning views—this is travel with cultural depth, relaxation, and adventure, all rolled into one seasonally smart getaway. Whether it’s dancing at a festival, diving among coral reefs, or simply basking in the warm tranquility of the islands, summer in the Caribbean feels like a secret worth sharing.
