Hyatt has opened its third all inclusive Mexico resort, Hyatt Hotels and Resorts and Playa Hotels and Resorts announced.

The new property is located at the former Dreams Puerto Vallarta, which recently underwent a $20 million expansion, renovation and repositioning.

The property’s debut is the latest in a wave of new all-inclusive properties for Hyatt.

The company debuted two new all-inclusives in Jamaica this month.

“Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta is the third Hyatt all inclusive destination in Mexico, and we are thrilled to be returning the Hyatt brand to this vacationer’s paradise,” said Carlos Cabrera, senior vice president for all-inclusive operations at Hyatt. “Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta is the perfect Mexico vacation destination for guests seeking a relaxing and pampered experience and if the chord for adventure strikes, activities on and off resort grounds abound. The resort renovation is magnificent and brings the all inclusive experience to the next level of indulgence.”

The 335-suite property includes four a la carte restaurants, a “tequila sommelier” and a spa with hydrotherapy services.

“Puerto Vallarta has long been regarded as one of the most romantic destinations in Mexico, and we believe that our dedication to service from the heart and commitment to the all inclusive luxury experience will land Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta as a top resort in this iconic destination,” said Alex Stadlin, CEO of Playa Resorts Management.
