Punta Cana, Dominican Republic (December 19, 2022) – Paradisus Palma Real Golf & Spa Resort is pleased to announce its reopening following a $40 million renovation, designed to enhance the guest experience throughout every area of the resort. Today, the resort unveils a reimagined resort with 596 newly designed suites including 58 swim-up suites, refreshed adults-only areas, new food and beverage concepts and extensive upgrades to the property’s convention center. In addition to these enhancements, the property has launched new upgraded luxury services that will debut at each Paradisus location.

Located on the Dominican Republic’s legendary Bávaro Beach, Paradisus Palma Real has been redesigned to further embrace the surrounding nature of Punta Cana. All 596 suites feature spaces bathed in bright, natural light, pairing rustic wood furnishings with earth tones, designed to exude relaxation and serenity as soon as guests enter. The new design celebrates the beachfront location by using natural materials and neutral browns and tans to emulate the feeling of sitting in the Caribbean sand.  Suites range from 516 to 1614 square feet and feature spacious living areas, furnished balconies or terraces with garden or ocean views, rainfall showers, and bath amenities by Biology® Smart Skincare.  Of these renovated suites, the resort will now offer 58 new swim-up suites. Guests can step outside and slip effortlessly into their own private pool or relax on a private fully furnished terrace, enjoying the pleasures of the Caribbean weather.

The resort has also unveiled nine newly designed restaurant concepts, providing guests with a wide variety of culinary experiences from Asian, Mexican, Italian, and other delectable cuisines. Of these nine concepts, the resort has introduced two new adults-only restaurants, Flora, offering artisan flavors, vegan delights, and local sustainable dishes, and Malva, a friendly and casual bazaar-style buffet where guests can sample flavor for local Dominican culture throughout breakfast, lunch, and à la carte dinner.

Paradisus Palma Real will reopen with several new elevated guest experiences that will also debut in Paradisus’ four other resort destinations.

Among these, guests longing for a special touch throughout their in-room experience are invited to upgrade their stay with Nikté.
