The Eden Roc at Cap Cana has appointed Stefano Baratelli as Executive Director.

He is responsible for daily operations of the Relais & Chateaux resort, which is located in Greater Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (in the Cap Cana enclave) and will oversee the coordination of the resort’s ongoing multi-million-dollar renovation – the first phase of which is anticipated for completion this month.

Bartelli brings with him years of management experience in locations across the Caribbean, and most recently served as General Manager at Iberostar Grand Hotel Bavaro, an all-inclusive luxury resort also in Punta Cana.

Born and raised in Italy, Baratelli went on to earn a Bachelor of Science in Hospitality Management with a focus on finance and real estate from Ecole Hôteliẻre de Lausanne in Switzerland.
