About this property
Ritz Carlton-Dorado Beach 5BR, 6BA Luxury Estate
Welcome to an Exclusive Caribbean Sanctuary
Dorado Beach, a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, is an ultra-exclusive oceanfront resort on Puerto Rico's northern coast. Pristine beaches, lush tropical forests, and the historic 50-acre Rockefeller estate create a rare blend of natural beauty and refined luxury. Within this serene sanctuary, our private estate feels secluded and world apart—yet still immersed in all the delights of Dorado Beach.
Your Private Estate — A Resort-Within-a-Resort
Set inside the gated Dorado Beach East community (within the Reserve), our estate offers the best of both worlds: the privacy and comfort of a luxury home, with resort amenities just a short walk or golf cart ride away. The compound includes two accommodations—a Main House and a Guest Villa—available individually or together.
Estate House (this property): A modern, single-story 5-bedroom, 6-bath main residence (~6,500 sq. ft.) featuring sleek, open-concept living and dining that flows to outdoor terraces. High ceilings and glass walls bring in natural light and lush views. Enjoy a fully equipped chef's kitchen, an inviting outdoor fire-pit lounge for evenings under the stars, and spacious bedrooms with en-suite spa-style bathrooms—including indoor/outdoor showers. Three private golf carts are included for your exclusive use.

About the host
Hosted by Yajia Hu Schwartz
A One-of-a-Kind Home with a Story
This estate is not just another luxury rental – it’s a labor of love with a unique history. Your hosts, Mark and Yajia, discovered Dorado Beach in 2015 while pursuing a startup dream, and they instantly knew they had found something special. (Legend has it, their golf cart serendipitously ran out of charge right in front of the very property that would become their future home – a sign from paradise!)
This estate is not just another luxury rental – it’s a labor of love with a unique history. Your hosts, Mark and Yajia, discovered Dorado Beach in 2015 while pursuing a startup dream, and they instantly knew they had found something special. (Legend has it, their golf cart serendipitously ran out of charge right in front of the very property that would become their future home – a sign from paradise!)
What makes this property unique
Captivated by Dorado’s magic, Mark & Yajia decided to create a modern Hawaiian family Ohana compound - a luxury modern sanctuary within the gates of the world famous Dorado Beach Resort. Over the next 8 years, they custom-built the Main Estate House and Villa, collaborating with renowned local architect Pachi Garcia to bring their vision to life. Every corner of the estate was thoughtfully designed to blend modern elegance with the island’s tropical allure. The result is a truly one-of-a-kind residence and outdoor playground – there is simply no other estate compound home like it in all of Dorado Beach. (In fact, it is quietly offered for sale to the right buyer at $29 million, underscoring just how exceptional it is.) Mark often says Dorado Beach was the best investment of his life, and now he and Yajia are delighted to share their private paradise with guests from around the world. When you stay here, you’re not just renting a property – you’re experiencing a private luxury Ohana Estate compound - Your Private Own Resort Retreat Within The larger Dorado Beach Resort, and access to all of its perks and amenities - A Resort Vacation home built from a modern Hawaiian dream, and you’ll feel that love, detail, and care during your stay.
