The resort's ten restaurants and seven bars offer guests a global tasting journey, with culinary highlights including Tierra, El Patio, and 1844 Dominican Cuisine.
At the heart of Dreams Playa Esmeralda Resort & Spa and the adjacent adults-only Secrets Playa Esmeralda Resort & Spa lies the vibrant Public Square, a shared, village-style hub filled with dining, shopping, and entertainment venues.
This dynamic space is home to several of the property’s dining venues, bars, and gathering spots, perfect for grabbing a morning coffee or winding down with music and cocktails after dark.
Dreams Playa Esmeralda Resort & Spa was designed with families in mind, offering a full schedule of supervised activities at the Explorer’s Club for Kids ages 3-12 and the Core Zone Teens Club for ages 13-17.
Beyond its dining and gathering spaces, Dreams Playa Esmeralda Resort & Spa invites guests to unwind and explore in the sun-soaked surroundings of the Caribbean.
Three shimmering pools, including a dedicated family-friendly pool, offer plenty of room to lounge and splash, while the resort’s vibrant on-site waterpark features thrilling waterslides and splash zones designed for kids and kids at heart.
A well-equipped fitness centre helps guests stay active while away, and the Secrets Spa offers massage cabins, a hydrotherapy circuit, a bridal suite, and a full-service beauty salon.
Playa Esmeralda is nestled in the still-developing region of Miches, at the intersection of tranquility and adventure.
Guests are surrounded by natural wonders rarely found in more touristed destinations, such as Montana Redonda, Los Haitises National Park, and Samana Bay.
Active travellers can hike to Salto La Jalda, the tallest waterfall in the Caribbean, or kayak through the peaceful, mangrove-lined waters of Laguna Limón, all just a short drive from the resort.
As part of Hyatt’s commitment to responsible tourism through its World of Care platform, Dreams Playa Esmeralda Resort & Spa recently installed a protected sea turtle nesting area along its beachfront, supporting one of the most important habitats for native sea turtles in the Playa Esmeralda area.
