Dorado del Mar neighborhood tour and interview with Diane | Living in Puerto Rico

[@ernestovasquez2274]

Beautiful Puerto Rico u s a the number 8 wonder of the world

[@ernestovasquez2274]

Nice video thanks for sharing

[@wikiellohizonone331]

Love dorado it is in humacao

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Dorado is on the North side of Puerto Rico, about 30-45 minutes drive West of San Juan. Humacao is located about 80 kilometers (approx 50 miles) away on the East coast of the island.

[@joedoe5738]

Humacao is in the south

What do you think would be a good place to move if you wanted to stay by the beach, with alot of nature in a very wild and quite setting? I WANTED to move back to mexico but I figure i rather move to an island but puerto rico just seems so vast and colonized I m tryna get pointed in a direction where i can move to a place thats natural and have beach you can enjoy that highly affordable could you throw some names?

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Rio Grande, Luquillo, Fajardo are all great options, but there are so many places to choose from depending on what is important to you. Here is a helpful guide that I created to get you started. jentheredonethat.com/moving-to-puerto-rico-start-here/

@@JenThereDoneThat thank you

[@laborincana4490]

Puerto Rico is not vast. IT has limited land resources. Is an island not a continent.

[@edwin_art_studio414]

Awesome

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Glad you like it!

[@RossEnzo]

Dorado Beach is known as the “ACT60 Community” and that makes it such target. Jose Andre now COA, is still highly recommended!

[@sandramoreno6043]

Lovely video!

El Ladrillo rest at Dorado, very good food

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Great tip! Thanks, I will check it out!

[@nesq4104]

2 people I have learned the most about PR. Love it ❤. I'm here for 6 months

[@JenThereDoneThat]

YAY! Glad we can help.

[@KeyserTheRedBeard]

terrific content JenThereDoneThat. I broke that thumbs up on your video. Continue to keep up the exceptional work.

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Much appreciated, thank you!

[@Max-ti5nq]

Jen must love her own voice a lot cuz in every video her voice is always amped up to the max, the guests' voice is at the minimum that sometimes inaudible althou they each have their own wireless mic. And the voice over, ugh, it startlingly pops in and out, can't even put the tv remote down cuz volume adjusting is a constant thing while watching her vids.

[@ejazzlines]

My wife and I own a house in Dorado del Mar (not a condo). Happy to also answer any questions. BTW, two-story houses are not allowed by HOA rules. There are a few that were constructed without proper permission. Also, the HOA is currently finalizing rules that will regulate short-term rentals. Thanks for taking the time to make this video.

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Ah, that explains why so few 2 level homes. Thanks for your sharing. It is a beautiful neighborhood! I love that beach, and everyone was so nice and friendly.

[@ejazzlines]

@@JenThereDoneThat It is a great beach. Also, your viewers may be interested to know that Dorado del Mar is changing a bit. Retirees do still make up a large percentage of the residents, but that is slowly changing as the older folks sell their homes to downsize (and, in many cases, move to the mainland to live with family members) and younger families buy property in the development. And, there are some fabulous restaurants nearby: Kikita Beach House, Melao, and El Ladrillo are a few.

[@mikemerone3823]

Cerro Gordo in not part of Dorado. Vega Alta is Cerro Gordo

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Yes, you are correct and I include that on the full video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIO9o6t8hZ2Bjac It is a popular spot for residents of Dorado.

[@chrish9502]

Are all beaches on pr public? I was told that Rockefeller beach was only for residents

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Beaches are public, but you cannot enter from certain gated communities, you have to access from a public location, then you can walk over.

[@user-dy2qq5wh4b]

I want to have the golf cart drivability experience. which area is more golf cart friendly/ popular? Within both the dorado areas and comparing dorado to palmas del mar. Thanks! (im not a golfer though lol)

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Palmas Del Mar is a great golf cart community! Golf carts may be driven in the various gated neighborhoods of Dorado, but you cannot easily go from one neighborhood to the other, they are not all in the same community.

[@hamletrivero]

Like my days in the military am SHORT!!!! Thanks guys

[@LaxmanSingh-qu5dj]

Moving to PR next month with my wife and we both are watching each and every videos of you. Super helpful information. Thanks for sharing and your time.

[@hekty75]

Puerto Rico have so many things to offer...don't listen to negative comments Like every state , town or country is goods and bads ...but Puerto Rico have way more goods ...beaches , rivers , mountains , good food , good people .....go do you things , stay out of bad areas and you will find a great place to visit or moved in

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Exacto! There are so many great areas around the island.

[@hekty75]

@@JenThereDoneThat Fajardo , luquillo , Rio Grandes have great community... my dream is a mountain house with a ocean views

[@andith]

All the negative comments come from those who enter the island as freeloaders along the coasts with no suitcase or a penny to be a public burden, releasing the envy and complexes that consume them.

[@maric-rod3876]

Hi Jen, any new updates on travel restrictions?

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Dorado is the name of the town, just like Humacao is the name of the town where Palmas de Mar is located.

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Yes, Dorado del Mar is located in Dorado, Puerto Rico.

Wow, I was just talking to my wife last night about when we were planning to buy a property at Dorado del Mar in 1993. Dorado is one of the most cleanest and beautiful cities in PR!

[@JenThereDoneThat]

Oh wow! I bet it has changed so much since 1993!
