Golf and Hotel Advice needed for San Juan
 
We're flying in a day before a cruise and would like to play golf.

Any suggestions on where to stay and play?

I've seen places in Dorado but I'm not sure how much it would cost to get to Old San Juan to catch the ship on Sunday from there.
Does anyone know how much a cab would be?

I'm open to any suggestions on this. We just want to play golf and stay some where nice for one night.

Thank you

The hotel closest to he airport that has a golf course is the Westin Rio Mar. You can call the hotel for tranportation costs. For the phone number and info on the golf courses go to

Thank you very much for responding so quickly.

That sounds like it might be a good idea.

I called the Embassy Suites in Dorado that has golf but they said it is 25 minutes from the airport and 25 minutes to Old San Juan.

Airport to Embassy Suites from the airport is going to take more than 25 minutes and the same can be said for OSJ. In the dead of night with no traffic the trip can probably be done in 25 minutes.

the dorado really is a special place- i think the westin is still pretty far from the airport- a lot depends on traffic- so leave yourself an hour and stay at the hyatt dorado- you won't be sorry.
