The Serenade Punta Cana Beach, Spa and Casino Resort, which is planning to open in September, is putting its focus on travel advisors. 

The Dominican Republic property has launched a new program for travel advisors with special rates from Oct. 31 through April 30, 2021. 

“Celebrating travel advisors is especially important this year after what the travel industry has faced these last few months with the travel agents assisting their clients through all of this,” said Aimee Tejeda, director of sales and marketing at Serenade Punta Cana Beach, Spa and Casino Resort. “As a new resort opening this September, we want to do our part by thanking the travel advisors. We will get through this together and look forward to welcoming travel advisors to experience the resort once this passes.”

The 603-room resort is slated to make its debut in Playa Cabeza de Toro in Punta Cana in September. 

It’s being developed as a “five-star property,” according to the brand.
