MADRID — Blue Diamond Resorts has announced plans to open the first Planet Hollywood Beach Resort in Puerto Plata.

The property is scheduled to make its debut in late 2024. The announcement was made at travel trade show FITUR last week in Madrid.

“Following the success of our all-inclusive models in Cancun and Costa Rica, we are proud to continue taking this lifestyle iconic brand to new trendy destinations of high relevance in our property portfolio,” said Jordi Pelfort, President, Hotels and Resorts of Sunwing Travel Group.

“A Planet Hollywood Beach Resort in Puerto Plata will add great value to Dominican tourism and will be perfectly aligned with the purpose of hotel, real estate, innovation and especially cinematographic development that this great project pursues,” he added.

The resort is part of the Punta Bergantin region relaunch project. Located in the northern part of the country, the development will offer resorts, eco-tourism, an 18-hole golf course, a residential development, shopping, even a movie studio, in keeping with the ‘Vacation Like a Star’ Planet Hollywood resort experience.
