The latest upscale five-star 24-hour all-inclusive resort in the Dominican Republic, the Cayo Levantado Resort, opened its doors in early June in the province of Samana. The resort occupies an entire island bringing to its guests an exclusive enchanting experience in one of the most secluded areas of the Dominican Republic.
Located in the province of Samana in the Dominican Republic, Cayo Levantado Resort sits majestically on an enchanting island within a tropical island paradise. The structure belongs to the group Bahia Principe Hotels & Resorts which took over a previous property to rebrand it and renovated it to turn it into one of the Dominican Republic‘s most luxurious property.
With this project as its flagship, Bahia Principe evolved its business and entered the luxury hotel management segment.
