The Placencia Resort in Belize Joins the Hyatt Portfolio

The first Hyatt-branded hotel in Belize enters the Hyatt portfolio as an affiliated hotel, with plans to officially join the Destination by Hyatt brand and World of Hyatt loyalty program in late 2025

Hyatt Hotels Corporation (NYSE:H) in collaboration with Maya Rio Development announced today plans for the first Hyatt-branded hotel in Belize with The Placencia Resort, which is entering the Hyatt portfolio as an affiliated hotel before joining the Destination by Hyatt brand and World of Hyatt loyalty program late next year. Nestled south of Mexico, east of Guatemala, and next to the Caribbean Sea, The Placencia Resort is located on the Placencia Peninsula, a verdant, 13-mile long beach in southern Belize near the largest barrier reef in the western hemisphere.

By late 2025, The Placencia Resort is expected to offer 90 reimagined guestrooms, suites and beachfront villas following a $10 million dollar renovation including an enhanced arrival experience with playfully refined public areas. Shortly after, guests can expect a new dynamic three-meal restaurant, indoor/outdoor event space perfect for social gatherings, an overwater signature restaurant and bar, and 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, head of development, Dream Hotels, Hyatt. “These plans for the first Hyatt-branded hotel in Belize reinforces our thoughtful brand growth in Latin America and the Caribbean, and we remain dedicated to meeting our guests where they want to be. We’re thankful to have worked alongside Maya Rio Development on this transition and look forward to bringing the Destination by Hyatt brand to Belize in late 2025.”

"The Placencia Resort's collaboration with Hyatt will allow us to offer our guests an unparalleled opportunity to immerse themselves in the rich culture and history of Belize," said Dyke Rogers, co-owner of Maya Rio Development." We are thrilled to join the Destination by Hyatt portfolio next year, further enhancing our guests' experiences with access to World of Hyatt benefits once we officially join the portfolio."

Just a short distance from the quaint village of Placencia, which offers a casual take on beachfront living with a selection of shops, eateries and bars, The Placencia Resort offers one of the most vibrantly activated resorts in the area. Energize with a group fitness session on the beach, enjoy mixed grooves with Eclectic Beach and Night Sands Scene, an unparalleled colorful mix of music, dance, popups, and entertainment or opt for privacy in the many hidden sanctuaries throughout the resort followed by a relaxing spa experience. The resort’s indoor outdoor biophilic gym offers guests a personal movement coach to engage with nature and self.

Home to Belize’s largest swimming pool, The Placencia Resort offers distinct experiences for sun-seeking adventurers such as complimentary kayaking and paddle boarding, and unlimited private beach access. Complimentary bicycles are offered on property to tour surrounding grounds or ride to Placencia village. The resort offers enhanced programming and a multitude of adventures and excursions for the whole family and groups of all ages, including a weekly adventure schedule hosted by the activities team, fishing expeditions, private boat charters, bespoke island immersions, and scuba diving and snorkeling. Further, guests can explore day trip tours to the inland of Belize with guided tours to Mayan archeological sites, cave expeditions and jungle adventures. Individualized planning support is available at guest disposal with ‘experience concierges’, creating custom escapes to make the most of your time in Belize.

The Placencia Resort further builds on Hyatt’s strategy for growing its brands in the Latin America and Caribbean region, with forthcoming openings slated to debut by end of 2024, including Hyatt Centric Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic, Dreams Grand Island in Cancun, Mexico, Hyatt Centric San José Escazú in Costa Rica and Hyatt Regency Panama City in Panamá. The Destination by Hyatt brand portfolio continues to expand in the region, with the recent opening of The Legend Paracas Resort in Peru and the anticipated debut of Cas En Bas Beach Resort St. Lucia in 2025.

Once The Placencia Resort joins the Destination by Hyatt brand in late 2025, World of Hyatt members will have the opportunity to earn and redeem points on stays to use toward free nights, dining, wellbeing experiences and more.
