Iberostar Selection Hacienda Dominicus in Bayahibe, D.R. has reopened after a complete renovation of its 528 rooms and most of its facilities.

The 5-star all-inclusive family resort originally opened in 2001. Amenities include three swimming pools, five restaurants, six bars, theatre, gym, spa, Star Café, Star Prestige and a Star Camp for young guests. There’s also infrastructure for weddings and corporate events.

Iberostar Selection Hacienda Dominicus is just 20 minutes from the airport in La Romana (LRM) and 50 minutes from the airport in Punta Cana (PUJ).

Among the main refurbishments, Iberostar has renovated one of the resort’s pools, plus Star Camp, now with a Mini Chef kitchen, and a Mini Cinema with a big screen TV, new furniture and gaming.

Meanwhile the room renos include high-tech in-room installations such as Chromecast, USB sockets, new reading lamps and a modern key system connected to guests’ wristbands and phones via QR codes.

All work was done in keeping with Iberostar’s sustainability criteria and in line with Iberostar’s 2030 Agenda. The company is aiming to be waste-free by 2025 and carbon neutral by 2030.

In November 2022 Iberostar announced it had agreed a long-term commercial agreement with IHG Hotels & Resorts to add up to 70 of its beachfront resorts to IHG’s system under the Iberostar Beachfront Resorts brand, the18th brand for IHG. The portfolio of Iberostar properties will gain access to IHG’s enterprise platform, including its distribution channels and the IHG OneRewards loyalty program with more than 100 million members.
