According to the Association of Hotels and Tourism Projects of the East, by the end of 2023 the eastern region could reach approximately 50,000 hotel rooms.

Now, you might be wondering which specific luxury properties these rooms belong to and when they plan to welcome eager guests.

Well, let’s find out!

The diverse dining options include six gourmet restaurants serving Mediterranean-Asian fusion, buffet, and Brazilian cuisine.

Plus, guests can relax at the luxurious Secrets Spa by Pevonia and enjoy endless entertainment activities and nighttime events.

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana & Sunscape Dominicus La Romana

Scheduled to open on January 15, 2024, these two Hyatt properties, developed in collaboration with Be Live Hotels, will add nearly 2,000 rooms to the Sunscape Resorts & Spas Inclusive Collection portfolio.

Sunscape Coco Punta Cana, located on Bavaro Beach, promises an unlimited fun experience, quite literally.

The resort’s Unlimited-Fun offerings include not just one but a whopping ten dining options, along with a spa featuring a beach gazebo and so much more.

For those traveling with the family, the resort offers spacious three-bedroom family suites complete with bunk beds, making it the perfect choice for accommodating kids.

Younger guests can enjoy themselves at the Explorer’s Club for Kids or the Core Zone, while grownups will likely find the resort’s casino and disco more appealing.

Situated along Playa Dominicus, Bayahibe, Sunscape Dominicus La Romana not only matches Sunscape Coco’s world-class amenities but also boasts a privileged location with nearby attractions such as Saona Island, Catalina Island, and Altos de Chavón.
