From the Bahia Principe website:

"Jun 8, 2005.


Bah?a Pr?ncipe Clubs & Resorts is pleased to inform you that it plans to open two new establishments in May 2006. Both will be set on the famous Samana peninsula, in the extreme north-east of the Dominican Republic between Bah?a de Samana and Bah?a Escocesa. These are undoubtedly two of the world's most beautiful spots in the world and have great natural appeal as whales can be sighted there from January to March.

Of the two establishments, one will be located on the Isla de Cayo Levantado. This will be the site for a Great Luxury 5-star hotel with a 200-room capacity and all kinds of comforts and services, including a butler service. This establishment will thus be a unique point of reference on the Dominican Republic and will operate under the name Gran BP Cayo Levantado GL.

The second, 5-star category, 250-room establishment will be located in Bah?a de Samana. It will operate under the name Gran BP Cayacoa and will have the unmistakable stamp that distinguishes all our establishments.

These openings are further examples of our chain?s commitment to quality and demonstrate both our brand?s international vocation and, particularly, the trust it has placed in the Dominican Republic, with the opening of a destination and a position with regard to the forthcoming opening of the airport of Samana, a zone in which our chain intends to grow in the short- and medium-term future.

It also means arrival in the GL segment with the opening of the Gran Bah?a Pr?ncipe Cayo Levantado."


Bahia Principe are certainly betting on the finish of the El Catey Samana International Airport.
