Hyatt Hotels recently announced plans to add more than 30 new luxury and lifestyle hotels and resorts to its U.S., Canada, Latin America and Caribbean portfolio through 2025. These new hotels and resorts span many of Hyatt Hotels’ brands including Park Hyatt, Dream Hotels, Thompson Hotels and Destination by Hyatt.
And since the hotel brand acquired Mr. & Mrs. Smith, a global travel platform providing direct booking access to a carefully curated and growing collection of global boutique and luxury properties, World of Hyatt members can now enjoy even more rewarding stays and experiences.
Hyatt’s early 2023 acquisition of Dream Hotel Group sees its first result with the forthcoming Dream Valle de Guadalupe, slated to open in 2024. This property spans 35 acres in the Baja California region and incorporates a large vineyard, 61 guestrooms and villas, a luxury spa and wellness concept, and three dining and nightlife venues. A private tasting room and pool bar also await.
Also in 2024, the first Hyatt Centric hotel in the Dominican Republic opens in Santo Domingo’s modern business district. The hotel will feature 130 guestrooms and suites; nearly 5,000 square feet of meeting and events space; and more. Another Hyatt Centric will grace downtown Querétaro in central Mexico in 2025, where 105 modern guestrooms, a rooftop pool and multiple dining concepts like a coffee shop and rooftop bar will emerge.
Cas en Bas Beach Resort marks the first Destination by Hyatt brand to launch in Saint Lucia, with plans to open in 2024. The hotel will sit between a championship golf course and Cas en Bay, offering amenities such as a pool, spa and wellness center, range of dining options, and exciting nightlife events.
As for Thompson Hotels, four of these lifestyle properties hit North America in the next two years. Thompson Houston opens later this year boasting 172 guestrooms and 34 suites, three restaurants, a private heliport, full-service spa and wellness center, and a one-acre rooftop and expansive pool deck. Thompson Palm Springs comes to California in early 2024 with 168 bungalow-inspired guestrooms and suites with private balconies, a Levantine Mediterranean dining concept, full-service spa, two rooftop pools and more. The Thompson brand marks its entrance into Florida in 2024 with Thompson South Beach complete with 150 guestrooms; a rooftop pool, bar and restaurant; a ground-floor restaurant; and retail space. And in 2025 Thompson Monterrey will be the first urban Thompson Hotel in Mexico, situated within a 31-floor tower with 150 guestrooms in total.
Park Hyatt Los Cabos at Cabo del Sol hits the scene in 2024, making it the first Park Hyatt hotel in Mexico, while Park Hyatt Mexico City follows close behind in 2025 with 155 guestrooms overlooking Chapultepec Park.

When I first visited Costa Rica, I was ostensibly there for business. But after a few days in this tropical paradise, my trip started to feel more like a vacation than work. This isn’t to say I neglected my obligations, rather that my work meetings felt more pleasurable (and productive) than usual.
