Hyatt Hotels’ affiliate has signed a management agreement with Codelpa for the future Hyatt Ziva Punta Cana resort in the Dominican Republic.

Scheduled to open in 2029, the resort will add to Hyatt’s expanding all-inclusive resort development in the Dominican Republic and will include 650 guest rooms, an adults-only section, and amenities designed for guests.

It is located 40 minutes from Punta Cana International Airport.

Hyatt Ziva Punta Cana will feature five speciality restaurants, a beach club, six bars and a juice bar at the spa, as well as family-friendly amenities.

Facilities will include an outdoor gym, yoga studio, fitness centre, and spa.

Hyatt Inclusive Collection president Javier Águila said: “We are delighted by the trust placed in us by a valued owner like Codelpa, and by the opportunity to further strengthen our already solid portfolio in the Dominican Republic.

“Hyatt currently has 34 hotels – 32 of them all-inclusive resorts – and nearly 17,000 rooms in the country. This is a clear reflection not only of our scale, but also of our long-standing commitment to a destination that is central to our past, present and future strategy in the Caribbean.”

The launch of Hyatt Ziva Punta Cana supports Inclusive Collection’s expansion in the region alongside planned openings of Hyatt Vivid Punta Cana and Secrets Macao Beach Punta Cana in 2026.

These developments strengthen Hyatt’s position in the all-inclusive sector with over 150 resorts and more than 55,000 rooms across Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean.

Last month, Hyatt Hotels opened Alila Mayakoba in Riviera Maya, Mexico, introducing the Alila brand to Latin America and the Caribbean with a resort centred on well-being and nature-based hospitality.
