The completely revamped Cayo Levantado all-inclusive resort in the Dominican Republic now has an opening date: June 1, 2023. 

The Bahia Principe property is set on the island of Cayo Levantado, a few miles off the coast of Samana Bay. 

Cayo Levantado is part of Bahia Principe’s push to enter the luxury all-inclusive sector, with what the company calls “premium standards.”

The transformed resort will also have a significant focus on sustainability, according to parent company Grupo Pinero.

“With a profound respect for the environment, we focus our expertise on protecting the delicate ecosystem and preserving its spectacular flora and fauna,” said Pablo del Toro, Technical Environmental Advisor, Grupo Piñero.

“In order to operate and power the hotel efficiently, gardening, waste management and renewable energy is required. Among the renewable energy sources, you’ll find thermal energy, heat recovery and solar panels,” he said.

The hotel is relatively small by Bahia Principe standards, with just 219 rooms, along with two pools, six restaurants and seven bars, among other amenities.
