The St. Regis Hotels & Resorts, part of Marriott International, announces the opening of The St. Regis Cap Cana Resort, marking the brand’s highly anticipated debut in the Dominican Republic. Nestled within the exclusive enclave of Cap Cana, the resort is set along the island’s most coveted stretch of white-sand coastline, an area renowned not only for its world-class golf and pristine beaches, but also for its deep cultural heritage and warm, storied spirit. Inspired by the region’s rich history, vibrant traditions, and breathtaking natural beauty, The St. Regis Cap Cana seamlessly blends timeless luxury with the soul of the Dominican Republic. Set against the backdrop of lush tropical splendor, guests will experience the warmth of Dominican hospitality, the rhythms of its lively music, and the flavors of its celebrated cuisine, all within a setting that redefines elegance and bespoke service in the heart of the Caribbean.
Exquisite Design, Inspired by Paradise
With architecture by award-winning firm Acebal Canney Arquitectos & Asociados and interior design by acclaimed Crafted by CHAPI Design / Chapi Chapo Design, the resort’s design draws inspiration from the lush palm-lined beaches, dramatic cliffs, and vibrant energy that define the surrounding land. At the heart of the resort’s design, is a tribute to the island’s multicultural legacy, symbolized by the “faceless doll.” Crafted by Dominican artisans as an emblem of unity and diversity, and incorporated throughout the property, her vibrant colors represent the land, her ornamentation reflects the character of the people, and her faceless form embodies everyone. With every detail, the resort’s design tells a story of transformation—earth molded into art, waters shaping the land, and diverse cultures harmonizing—seamlessly weaving the textures, colors, and energy of the Dominican landscape, reflecting the warmth and vibrancy of its people across the resort. For instance, the spa incorporates a harmonious blend of water and rock, reflecting the island’s sculpted coastline. The rooms feature custom stone tiles that pay tribute to the island’s natural beauty, while the cigar lounge’s gracefully curved lines evoke the gentle flow of smoke rising against a dusky Caribbean sunset.
Perfect for couples, families, or multigenerational travelers, The St. Regis Cap Cana boasts 200 lavish guest rooms, including 36 suites with direct plunge pool access, all featuring stunning ocean views. The accommodations reflect a contemporary yet elegant interpretation of the Caribbean spirit, with a Presidential Suite spanning 6,500 square feet, designed for an unrivaled luxury experience. The guest rooms are designed to echo the dramatic beauty of the surrounding cliffs and sea, evoking a sense of refined comfort with bespoke furnishings, natural textures, and a soothing color palette of soft, oceanic blues and sandy neutrals inspired by the coastal surroundings. Thoughtful lighting and tailor-made furnishings enhance the serene atmosphere, while expansive layouts with seaside views invite guests to experience the seamless harmony between architecture and the surrounding landscape.
Unparalleled Amenities & Bespoke Experiences for All Ages
Catering to travelers seeking a refined yet relaxed environment, The St. Regis Cap Cana features four swimming pools, including exclusive spaces reserved for discerning adults and family-friendly areas designed for guests of all ages as well as an exclusive Children and Teens Club, where cultural and educational experiences bring Dominican Republic’s rich heritage to life; all complemented by the signature St. Regis Butler Service. Off property, golf enthusiasts will revel in the proximity of the legendary Punta Espada Golf Course, a Jack Nicklaus signature course, with sweeping ocean views and a challenging design. Additionally, the resort is ideally situated near Cap Cana’s premier attractions, including the Marina Cap Cana, Scape Park, and Los Establos Equestrian Center, ensuring an array of outdoor adventures and cultural experiences for guests.
A Destination of Culinary Excellence
The St. Regis Cap Cana Resort boasts nine diverse dining venues, including its flagship Nina Restaurant, helmed by award-winning Peruvian Chef Diego Muñoz of World’s 50 Best Restaurants fame. Fire takes center stage at Nina Restaurant, a name translated from “ember,” “candle,” or “fire” in Quechua, the indigenous language spoken in the Andean region of South America. From perfectly grilled selections to elegantly chilled dishes, every plate is thoughtfully sourced from the finest ingredients throughout the Americas. For an exclusive touch, the Uma Wine Cellar Room offers a private dining experience with a bespoke menu curated by Chef Muñoz.
A signature brand experience, The St. Regis Bar embodies Dominican culture with modern elegance, offering omakase-style bar bites, a caviar ritual, and the beloved St. Regis traditional champagne sabering ritual, all set against a striking faceless doll mural — a defining feature deeply rooted in local culture and heritage, adding a unique and refined dimension to the atmosphere. Guests can indulge in the resort’s signature Bloody Mary, the “Quisqueya Mary,” inspired by a local Dominican dish and crafted with the property’s own island-made light rum, in-house spice mix, and infused with fried plantain. For cigar aficionados, The Amber Room is a luxurious lounge space offering a premium selection of rum, cognac, and whiskey, complemented by smokey cocktails and sophisticated Latin-inspired bites such as empanadas, caviar, and jamón. With a walk-in humidor, a chic in-bar shop, and the expertise of a cigar sommelier and “rummilier,” guests can enjoy perfectly paired cigars and rum, enhanced by stylish cigar holders.
Cassava, the resort’s Latin American-inspired restaurant, provides breakfast, lunch, and dinner in a lush, inviting space, complete with private dining areas and weekend brunch. The rooftop bar Cielo Mio delivers an upscale coastal-inspired ambiance with breathtaking views, complemented by refined Mexican and Latin cuisine. For those seeking Mediterranean flavors, Marola Mediterranean Grill offers an array of grilled seafood, meats, and classic dishes, perfect for poolside or beachside dining. Kawa Coffee Shop provides a grab-and-go experience with locally sourced cacao-based treats and artisanal pastries, while El Huerto serves as a versatile pop-up venue hosting plant-based dining experiences, guest chef events, and interactive tastings.
