“At Tourism, we’re pleased with the celebration of the 40th anniversary our small inns and now with the opening of these new rooms, six in the original building and 11 additional in the new building they have called La Hacienda del Parador,” said Rivera-Rocafort.
“These new rooms represent an economic impact of nearly $500,000 and more than 20 jobs for the ‘Porta del Sol’ tourist region. It also represents the work of Puerto Rican hands,” she added.
The Parador Combate Beach is located on the pristine El Combate beach in Cabo Rojo adjacent to the town’s Wildlife Refuge, which offers several amenities such as a 32-mile walking or running track bike along the coast and more than 126 species of local and migratory birds.

Ramírez, vice president, and Xavier A. Ramírez, secretary/treasurer.
