Venue Setting

The Legacy -"Su Casa" built in 1920s by Clara Livingston. A pioneering spirit, she ran her family's citrus and coconut plantation after her father's death, built an airstrip on the property, and became the first women to fly the Caribbean. After Laurence S. Rockefeller purchased the estate in the 1950s, it became the epicenter of Dorado Beach society, hosting celebrities and politicians in legendary style. Today, Su Casa's original grandeur is paired with contemporary amenities to create a venue steeped in local culture and heritage.
