Excellence Reopening Punta Cana Property in November

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - July 2, 2017 - 10:36 am

Excellence Group will be holding a grand reopening of its Excellence Punta Cana resort in November.

The all-inclusive is closed now through Oct. 31 for what the company is calling a “complete renovation of its facilities,” according to Domingo Aznar, vice president of sales and marketing.

Renovations will focus on three areas: suites, the culinary experience and the resort’s premium Excellence Club.

The suites will see a shift from tropical decor to “modern sleek design,” the company says, with the addition of 20 new suites with private pools.

All of the resort’s bars and restaurants will be renovated, and a new sports bar and a coffee house will also debut.

Excellence operates properties in the Dominican Republic and Mexico.
