Feel free to arrive/depart any time within those dates. If you are interested in partaking in all the wedding week events, it's recommended that you arrive no later than Tuesday, April 9th and wait until Sunday, April 14th to depart. The welcome cocktail hour is Tuesday evening and the farewell catamaran to Saona Island is on Saturday.

The Hyatt resort is split into two sides: The Ziva (family-friendly) and Zilara (adult-side). Children 17 and under are only allowed on the Ziva (family) side. Therefore, if you are traveling with children, you must book on the Ziva side. There are a variety of restaurants, bars, and pools on both sides.

Both sides are connected through a "U" shape and takes minimal time to cross between the two sides. 

Anyone age 18 and older can use any and all amenities on either side of the resort at any time, regardless of which side you book. To explain, adults who stay on the Ziva (family) side can go to the restaurants, bars, and pools on the Zilara (adult) side at any time. The same privileges are extended to adults staying on the Zilara (adult) side. Therefore, unless you are traveling with children, it doesn't really matter which side you stay on. 

The bride and groom are staying on the Ziva (family) side!

When you book your room with the travel agent, they will offer you round-trip transportation services. I encourage you to book through this through the agent, but if you forget, there are a variety of taxis and transportation services parked outside of the airport exit.

Hyatt Ziva/Zilara is located a quick 10-15 minutes from the Punta Cana airport! 

We ask that you book through our room block. The room block contains pre-negotiated pricing that is significantly lower than advertised rates. Booking through the wonderful team of Patty +Kristen at Unique Romance Travel ensures that your booking is stress free. With top-notch service and flexible payment options it's a win-win. In the unlikely event that you come across lower pricing for comparable room categories, please contact the travel agents to discuss price matching. We've learned through the pandemic how beneficial travel agents are to assist with travel changes in times of uncertainty. Leave the travel planning to the travel pros!

Yes, the resort does offer a few additional rooms that are outside of our room block such as non-club level, non-oceanview obstructed-view rooms (and the Presidential Suite!) We carefully selected all of the rooms in the room block to include club-level amenities. Club-level comes with an abundance of perks such as ocean views, premium liquors and beer, in-room bottle service, private check-in, complimentary late check-out, use of additional exclusive pools and restaurants, and (in some of the more premium rooms) butler service. We want all of our guests to receive the same level of wonderful service and benefits. We would hate to see anyone left out or excluded from certain restaurants, bars, and pools. In addition, we plan to host a couple of pre-wedding events (such as the welcome cocktail party + Bruch with the Bride) in club-level areas so our hope is that you can join in. 

Yes. Although we don't anticipate many children to be in attendance, children are more than welcome to come. However, families with children must book on the ziva (family) side of the resort. Children under age 18 are not allowed on the zilara (adult) side at any time. Children under age 13 may stay at a discounted rate. Please see the booking tab for more information. Please note: Some wedding-week events will be adults-only due to their location. The resort provides a free kids care center during the day/early evening hours. Hyatt offers private babysitting services (for an hourly fee) as well. 

Some room categories can accommodate up to 5 guests, however, typical rooms are designed for 1 or 2 guests. The maximum number of adults in a room (double bed rooms) is four. A 5th person may only be added as a child under age 13. Please note that these rooms with double beds have only 1 bathroom.

Only double-bed rooms ("club ocean view double") can accommodate four adults. Although rooms such as the Master Suite and Grand Master Suite are much larger, they contain king size beds and have a maximum of 2 adults. Please see the booking tab for more information. 

Are you a single person looking for another person to room with? Please let the bride or groom know and we will do our best to help pair you with someone. 

All of our preselected rooms in the room block contain amazing views of the ocean due to the fact that they are club-level. Ocean view rooms are located on higher level floors with unobstructed views so that you get a great view of the water. Ocean view rooms are typically a combination of views of the ocean and pools. 

Ocean front rooms are just steps away from the sand. They run parallel to the ocean for a truly breathtaking experience.
