Hotel
Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve Puerto Rico
Río Grande, 00745, Puerto Rico +1 787-657-1234
This is where the wedding will take place. While we will have discounted rooms in this hotel there are also many options near by to stay. ****Imp. If you want to stay one or 2 nights the discounted rooms we reserve are cheaper. BUT if you want to stay 3 night reserve DIRECTLY with the hotel through the website. They have a 2 nights one free rate but only if you reserve for 3 nights. It's also better to reserve online because there are more options. I just called to make a reservation and they said they did not have a room I wanted but on the website it did. The lady said that website usually has more availability than what they are told. **** All the rooms are pretty big! Delux means it has a bathtub and a shower. Don't pay extra to get the rooms with the Hyatt Club that is not open yet.

Travel Note
PR COVID information.
This website has up-to-date information on current COVID measures on the island. This is NOT the government website where you fill out the travel information, but it links you to that website and it does provide accurate and current information regarding COVID rule. Currently, if you are vaccinated, and traveling from the U.S. then you don't need a COVID test, just proof of vaccination. MANY RESTAURANTS are ASKING to SEE your VACCINATION CARD. Not all but some restaurants are asking to see them. It would be a good idea to bring them and keep them close.

COVID Travel declaration Website
While things are still changing, recent information from the government in Puerto Rico does not require COVID testing from domestic travel IF and ONLY IF you are fully vaccinated (so keep those cards close). If you are not vaccinated then you need a negative covid test within 72hrs. of your travel date. As of today, 5/23/21 anyone traveling to PR whether vaccinated or not has to go to this website and fill out the information. It only takes about 5 minutes. The website will provide you with a QR code which will be scanned by security at the airport upon arrival. You can print or keep the QR code on your phone for scanning. Once they scan it, which is SUPER easy and fast (we have done it), then you leave the airport and start your vacation. I suggest filling out the declaration 1 or 2 days before traveling. If you forgot, no worries, you may fill it out at the airport but that can take up to 30 minutes off your vacation time.
