Playa Names GM for New Cap Cana Resorts

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - November 3, 2019

Playa Hotels and Resorts has appointed a general manager for its soon-to-debut resorts in the Dominican Republic’s Cap Cana.

The all-inclusive company has tapped Pedro Tomas to the role, in which he will oversee both the Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana — two resorts totaling 750 suites on a 40-acre site.

Amenities will range from a full-scale water park to a 14,000-square-foot fitness center. 

A native of the Dominican Republic, Tomas was most recently the general manager of Playa’s new Hilton La Romana, also in the Dominican Republic. 

“Pedro has spent his entire career in hospitality and brings first-hand knowledge to his new role at the flagship resorts for the Hyatt All Inclusive brands.,” the company said in a statement announcing the move.
