Hyatt to expand all-inclusive portfolio in Dominican Republic

Hyatt Hotels has announced a new Dreams Resorts & Spas property in the Dominican Republic will be ready by the end of year.

The hospitality company said one of its affiliates entered into a management agreement with Cobbo Bay Developers SA to create Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa, which will feature 519 guestrooms, including 40 villas and 100 swim-up suites.

Located 15 minutes from Punta Cana International Airport, Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa will be nestled within the exclusive gated community of Cap Cana, situated on Juanillo Beach and home to one of the largest inland harbour marinas in Central and South America, two amusement parks, a state-of-the-art Los Establos Equestrian Center that houses stables, riding arenas, and polo fields, and an award-winning Punta Espada Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course.

“The Dominican Republic is an integral part of Hyatt’s regional development strategy, and our thoughtful growth enables us to meet the evolving consumer demand for family-friendly, luxury, all-inclusive experiences on the island,” said Cristobal Enriquez, vice-president of business development, Hyatt’s Inclusive Collection. “The forthcoming opening of Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa is a testament to growing our brand footprint in destinations that matter most to guests, customers, and World of Hyatt members. The resort will be ideally situated on the same stretch of beach as Secrets Cap Cana, Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana and Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana, further solidifying Hyatt’s Inclusive Collection as the largest portfolio of all-inclusive luxury resorts.”

At Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa, guests will be able to take advantage of an expansive array of amenities, including 10 à la carte restaurants, unlimited top-shelf spirits at six bars, 24-hour room and concierge services, daily activities, daytime and nightlife entertainment, and an 11,000 sq. ft spa with 13 treatment rooms.

Kids can enjoy dedicated programs at the Explorer’s Club and Core Zone Teens Club while adults unwind at one of the resort’s four pools and lazy river, two pickleball courts, a tennis court and fitness center. The resort also features a theater and flexible meeting spaces.

“We’re thrilled to collaborate with Hyatt’s Inclusive Collection and transform this property into Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa,” said Harold Cuellar, executive vice-president, Cobby Bay Developers SA. “Cap Cana is a vibrant destination, and this beachfront investment reflects our shared confidence in the market’s ongoing growth. With the beloved brand attributes of Dreams Resorts & Spas, we’re certain that Dreams Cap Cana Resort & Spa will deliver an exceptional, unforgettable experience for every guest.”
