The resort feels like a world apart, one made entirely of leisure — and in impeccable good taste.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set inside the 30,000-acre Cap Cana enclave, the property borders the rocky coastline and fairways of Punta Espada golf course.
The rooms
Stand-alone suites feature private swimming pools, covered gazebos, and glass-walled bathrooms with freestanding tubs and open-air garden showers.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
A curved infinity pool looks across the beach club sands, and a large freshwater pool mirrors the clubhouse.
The spa
Twelve treatment suites wrap around a thatched courtyard, with outdoor massage cabanas and Natura Bissé body rituals.
Gym and hydrotherapy
The gym is lined with wooden shutters, and a covered ocean deck holds an open-air hot tub.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Venues range from fine dining at Mediterraneo to seafood on La Palapa's ocean terrace and cocktails at Riva Bar.
The property’s 34 spacious freestanding suites… are oases of tranquility with private swimming pools (not merely plunge pools) and covered gazebo lounge areas.
How it began
Milanese designers Carlo Belgir and Marina Nova drew inspiration from 1960s French and Italian Riviera aesthetics for the resort architecture.
“At this Relais & Châteaux property, guests have their choice of beachfront suites with kitchens; stand-alone suites with private pools, gardens, and verandas; and oceanfront villas…”
