While it is designed as a family-friendly paradise, Hyatt is building this resort with a clever layout that perfectly separates vibrant family spaces from serene, adults-only sanctuaries.
What Makes This Resort Special?
Unlike older resorts that retrofitted family and adult spaces together, the Hyatt Ziva Punta Cana is being built from the ground up with a dual-concept layout. It will feature a massive, dedicated family zone alongside a completely distinct, exclusive adults-only building. This ensures that whether you are traveling with toddlers, teenagers, or just your partner, your vacation vibes will never clash.
Accommodations: Modern Luxury for Everyone
The resort will feature 650 meticulously designed guestrooms.
- Family-Friendly Suites: Spacious layouts, multiple bedding configurations, and suites designed to easily accommodate larger families.
- The Adults-Only Building: A completely separate accommodation wing designed for couples and solo travelers looking for peace, quiet, and sophisticated design away from the family-friendly hustle.
- Swim-Up Options: Expect Hyatt’s signature swim-up suites, allowing you to step right from your private terrace into a refreshing pool.
Highlighting the Adults-Only Amenities
If you are booking the adults-only section, or if you are a parent utilizing the kids’ club for a few hours of “me time,” the resort has curated highly sophisticated, grown-up spaces:
- Dedicated Adults-Only Pool: One of the resort’s five pools will be strictly reserved for adults, featuring its own swim-up bar and a quiet, lounge-focused atmosphere.
- The Spa Sanctuary: A massive wellness center featuring a juice bar, hydrotherapy circuit, sauna, steam rooms, a traditional hammam, and a private bridal suite.
- Sophisticated Nightlife: While families enjoy evening entertainment, adults can slip away to upscale bars and lounges serving premium international and domestic spirits.
Family-Friendly Fun & Amenities
For families, the Hyatt Ziva Punta Cana is pulling out all the stops, creating an on-site playground that rivals major theme parks:
- The Water Park: A state-of-the-art water park featuring multi-story slides, splash zones, and lazy rivers.
- Active Recreation: A dedicated bowling alley, a ropes course, a climbing wall, mini-golf, and outdoor playgrounds.
- Kids & Teens Clubs: Fully supervised, age-appropriate clubs offering interactive daily programming, technology zones, and creative crafts.
- Sports Courts: On-site tennis and pickleball courts, plus a fully equipped fitness center, yoga studio, and outdoor gym.
A Gastronomic Journey: All-Inclusive Dining
You won’t find generic buffets here. Hyatt Ziva Punta Cana is planning a world-class culinary lineup:
- 5 Specialty Restaurants featuring global cuisines (from fine dining to casual open-air concepts).
- International Buffet & Beach Club for breezy, oceanfront dining.
- Casual Eats: A dedicated snack bar, an artisanal coffee parlor, and an on-site ice cream venue.
- 6 Bars & Lounges scattered across the property so a premium cocktail is never out of reach.
