Hyatt Hotels Corporation and Playa Hotels & Resorts B.V. have plans to introduce the Hyatt Ziva brand to Cancun. Formerly Dreams Cancun, the resort is undergoing a multi-million dollar renovation and is expected to reopen in late 2015 as Hyatt Ziva Cancun.
“Since the debut of Hyatt’s first two all inclusive resorts late last year, Hyatt Zilara Cancun and Hyatt Ziva Los Cabos, we continue to listen to guests in order to redefine the all-inclusive experience,” says Chris Walker, vice president of brand experience for Hyatt Ziva and Hyatt Zilara. “We are delighted to see plans for Hyatt Ziva Cancun advance as it will offer a great new resort option for new and existing Hyatt guests. The renovation of such an iconic building, coupled with an all inclusive experience, will make Hyatt Ziva Cancun the preferred hotel by families visiting Cancun.”
Originally designed by renowned Mexican architect Roberto Legoretta, the resort’s pyramid-style construction exemplifies contemporary local architecture. The hotel renovation includes a restoration component that will maintain the architectural integrity and beauty of the original property.
Hyatt Ziva Cancun will be reconfigured to create a village-like atmosphere. A bridge connecting the north south beaches will provide beach access, as well as connecting entertainment, dining, and other resort features and amenities. A signature grand staircase will be a focal point of the resort and also seating for the outdoor amphitheater in the evenings.
In addition to Hyatt Ziva Cancun, the Hyatt Ziva Puerto Vallarta is scheduled to open in late 2014. In the Caribbean, Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall and Hyatt Ziva Rose Hall in Montego Bay are scheduled to open in late 2014.
