As Punta Cana soars in popularity with travelers this year, a number of major resorts in the sun-soaked destination are getting huge makeovers.
Although the city is famous for its top-notch hospitality, luxurious properties, and impeccable service, resorts need to undergo routine renovations to maintain extremely high standards as travel numbers grow.
Last week, Grupo Piñero, one of the largest hospitality chains operating in the Dominican Republic and the Caribbean region, announced that several of its properties will be enhanced thanks to new renovations.
As the Dominican Republic gears up for a record-breaking winter season, here’s the latest on resort renovations in the sunny destination.
Grupo Piñero Announces Resort Renovations For Its Dominican Republic Properties
Grupo Piñero is the latest hospitality giant to reveal an ambitious renovation program targeting all of its major Dominican Republic properties. At an estimated cost of over $70 million, the makeovers will improve existing facilities and add new ones to welcome more guests.

According to Grupo Piñero, as visitor numbers to the Caribbean – and especially the Dominican Republic – grow, travelers are demanding more services and unique experiences to make their stay more memorable.
That’s why Grupo Piñero has announced sweeping changes to its properties in the Dominican Republic, where it has already renovated some 600 rooms, including the Junior Suite Premium and Deluxe swim Up suites.

Bahia Principe Luxury Esmeralda
Bahia Principe Luxury Esmeralda is another major Punta Cana resort that will see its luxury amenities and fabulous service greatly improved thanks to the ongoing renovation.
While the makeover will largely focus on sprucing up the resort’s outdoor facilities and numerous indoor areas, the property’s culinary offerings are also getting a major boost. After the extensive renovation program is complete, guests can look forward to more dining options, including new Taíno-influenced dishes.

The theme for the Lobby has been the Taino culture, with many geometric figures, colors that represent nature and the sea. The main piece is the lamp over the round table, as it represents the sun, a very important element in the Taino culture.
