President Danilo Medina was in Puerto Plata this past December for the inauguration of the Presidential Suites Cabarete, the newest hotel project of The Lifestyle Group that also operates a major development in Cofresí, Puerto Plata. The Presidential Suites Cabarete was built with an investment of US$36 million. Currently at the opening of the first stage of the project, the Presidential Suites Cabarete includes 163 room units.
Tourism Minister Francisco Javier Garcia gave the keynote address at the event that highlighted the growth of tourism in Puerto Plata. Puerto Plata Bishop Julio Cesar Corniel Amaro offered the blessing of the project.
In addition to these important Dominican Republic dignitaries and other government officials and representatives of the sector, the event was attended by Markus Wischenbart and Anja Wiscenbart, president and vice president of the Lifestyle Group. They were joined by Patrick Sleezer, a representative from the Wynn Group, a Canadian investment group that was responsible for the construction of the five-star project.
The Presidential Suites Cabarete calls for the construction of 13 deluxe buildings with units of 1, 2, and 3 rooms at end stage completion. Each room will include modern furnishings and view of Cabarete beach or resort gardens. The all-inclusive resort is described as having first-rate restaurants, a relaxing spa area with sauna and Jacuzzi, several pools, bars, and other recreational accommodations.
