Upon opening its doors, the Vanderbilt quickly became the destination of choice for generations of heads of state, captains of industry and Hollywood royalty - creating a rarified atmosphere of sophistication, elegance and grace. Vanderbilt selected Warren & Wetmore - one of the foremost architectural firms of the time, having designed Grand Central Station and the Biltmore Hotel - to draw up blueprints for what he would go on to name "The Condado Vanderbilt Hotel." Frederick William Vanderbilt, scion of one of the wealthiest families in America - and among the most influential men in the country - had previously acquired oceanfront land on the site, and set out to build the finest destination in the Caribbean. Condado Vanderbilt's history can be traced back to its grand opening on October 16th, 1919.
