Saturday, August 3, 2024 Experience vibrant beachfront living and adventure at The Placencia Resort by Hyatt Hotels in Belize, offering luxury amenities, wellness, and exclusive excursions. Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE:H) and Maya Rio Development have announced plans to bring the first Hyatt-branded hotel to Belize with The Placencia Resort. Initially joining the Hyatt portfolio as an affiliated property, The Placencia Resort will later become part of the Destination by Hyatt brand and the World of Hyatt loyalty program by the end of next year.
Positioned on the lush 13-mile-long Placencia Peninsula in southern Belize, this resort offers breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea and is located near the largest barrier reef in the western hemisphere, nestled between Mexico and Guatemala. By late 2025, The Placencia Resort is set to unveil 90 newly renovated guestrooms, suites, and beachfront villas following a $10 million renovation. This upgrade will also enhance the arrival experience with stylish public spaces.
Shortly thereafter, guests can look forward to enjoying a vibrant new three-meal restaurant, versatile indoor/outdoor event spaces ideal for social gatherings, an overwater signature restaurant and bar, as well as a refreshed pool and pool bar experience. “We’re excited to welcome guests to a new destination within the Hyatt portfolio and allow them to explore the breadth and beauty of Belize and what The Placencia Resort has to offer,” said David Kuperberg, he.
