Congratulations Playa on your amazing journey!

Playa Resorts celebrate their success with top travel partners

Talk about growth. Not even five years ago, Playa Hotels & Resorts had seven hotels. “Now we’re at 20,” says Rose Cosentino, Vice President of Sales in Canada for the company.

Playa Resorts' Incredible Growth

“Our growth is incredible,” said Cosentino at last night’s industry event in Toronto. Taking place at chic Arcane bar and restaurant on King St. West, and complete with a serve-yourself candy buffet, the reception brought Playa’s top travel partners to hear all the latest news and celebrate Playa’s success.

Playa’s Canadian team, including BDMs Amanda Morris (Ontario), Freddie Marsh (Western Canada) and Christian Roussin (Quebec & Atlantic Canada) joined Cosentino to host the event.

Special Agent Incentive

The highlight of the night for many agents was Playa’s Double the Points promotion, offering double points on all bookings to Playa’s five D.R. resorts as part of Playa’s agent loyalty program AgentCash Plus.

New Resorts

Playa has two new resorts opening in the D.R. in November 2019: Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana, for adults-only, and the all-ages Hyatt Ziva Cap Cana.

There’s also Hilton La Romana, which is two resorts in one with an adults-only enclave within the all-ages resort. And Sanctuary Cap Cana just announced a $44 million USD renovation earlier this year.

The luxury property boasts new suites, reimagined restaurants and an expanded spa.

Dominican Takeover

With new resorts and multi-million dollar upgrades, Playa Resorts says its expanding its all-inclusive footprint in the Dominican Republic. The company’s partnership with Hyatt and Hilton will yield 1,400 new hotel rooms by year end.

It’s been a challenging few months for D.R. sales but the destination, always extremely popular with Canadians, is holding fairly steady from this market.

“There was a slowdown in the D.R. but I think all our partners would admit to that,” says Cosentino. “We’ve also seen a rebound and that’s partly why we’re doing this event tonight, to show the destination some love.”
