Marriott International has announced it has signed a management agreement with Grupo Puntacana and Spanish hotel company MAC Hotels to operate the W All-Inclusive Punta Cana in Uvero Alto. The W All-Inclusive will be an adults-only resort. Uvero Alto is the northernmost section of Punta Cana beach stretch.
The Marriott press release explains the new W All-Inclusive Punta Cana Uvero Alto will have 349 guestrooms (including several suites) with balconies and plunge pools. The description says the resort will have adult-focused programming, a spa with 11 treatment rooms, a shopping area, three pools with pool bars and 11 F&B outlets.
“The signing of W Punta Cana Uvero Alto demonstrates our strong commitment to tourism development in Uvero Alto,” said Frank Elías Rainieri, president and CEO of Grupo Puntacana.
“Punta Cana is the perfect destination for both the W Hotels brand and an all-inclusive luxury resort,” said Laurent de Kousemaeker, Chief Development Officer, Caribbean and Latin America, Marriott International. “We look forward to bringing the vision for this fun adult playground to life with Grupo Puntacana and MAC Hotels.”
For MAC Hotels, the original developer of this project, the investment represents its third project in the country. The company has evolved its hospitality strategy in which it has been both an owner and the operator for all of its projects until now. The hotel had been announced in 2019 as the Pure Salt Orchidarium. MAC Hotels is owned by Spanish entrepreneur Miguel Amengual.
The new resort is scheduled to open in 2025.
