Choosing a Side

Ziva or Zilara? Which one should I pick?

The Hyatt property consists of 750 rooms divided into a family-friendly (Ziva) and adults-only (Zilara) side. Children age 17 and younger must remain on the Ziva side at all times. However, adults 18 and over may cross between both sides of the property as they please. 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 & groom are staying on the Ziva (family) side!
