Travelers can enhance their visit to Puerto Rico with a stay at properties featuring uniquely decorated guestrooms, locally curated in-room amenities and culturally immersive experiences

Discover Puerto Rico, the Island’s Destination Marketing Organization (DMO) and Marriott International have partnered to announce today the launch of Live Boricua Experience Packages that offer immersive rooms, featuring arts, decor, experiences and culinary offerings deeply rooted in the Puerto Rican DNA. Inspired by Discover Puerto Rico’s Live Boricua brand campaign, which invites travelers to enjoy things the Boricua – or Puerto Rican – way, these travel packages include lodging and experiences that highlight Puerto Rico’s diversified talent and local brands.

Chocolatiers VIDA by Yara and Chocobar Cortés, Don Q Rum, and eye-catching art by Angelo Alvarez and Bernardo Medina are a few of the local brands and artists featured in rooms specifically curated in Marriott International properties throughout the Island. Bomba musical presentations, private cooking classes and heritage tours are examples of some of the experiences offered.

“The Live Boricua experience packages and immersive rooms celebrate what makes Puerto Rico unique, the people and its culture,” said Leah Chandler, Chief Marketing Officer of Discover Puerto Rico. “We are delighted to partner with Marriott International to highlight local brands and incredibly talented artisans for travelers to truly immerse themselves into all that Puerto Rico has to offer.”

“We’re thrilled that this collaboration with Discover Puerto Rico and the Live Boricua Experience Packages serve as a conduit to engage with residents and travelers alike, as well as putting a well-deserved spotlight on local talents and brands,” said Diana Plazas-Trowbridge, Chief Sales & Marketing Officer, Caribbean and Latin America, at Marriott International. “Our properties across the island are beyond excited to show visitors everything Puerto Rico has to offer with these uniquely enhanced guestrooms and series of cultural experiences. From its warmth traditions to its heritage and divine gastronomy, Puerto Rico is the perfect destination,” adds Plazas.

The immersive rooms are available for a limited time at select Marriott properties throughout the Island.
