Zel Punta Cana opened in 2019 as a reimagined all-inclusive resort on Av.
Alemania, marking a significant investment in Dominican Republic hospitality with 602 suites across 30 acres of beachfront property.
The property was developed as part of Meliá's commitment to modernizing the Punta Cana region with contemporary design and comprehensive amenities.
This all-suite format eliminates traditional hotel rooms, offering guests a more spacious, residential experience for weddings and celebrations.
We had such a great time staying at Zel Punta Cana. The property is gorgeous, from the tropical gardens to the beautiful beach. It truly makes you feel like you’re in a paradise. The resort is super clean inside and out. Its small size allowed us to get to know the staff and made the whole experience more personal, unlike a big resort, where you are just a number. All of the staff were great, but I do have to mention two people who made the experience even more special. One of them was Andres, our concierge. Great personality, very communicative, checked in on us daily, and handled all the reservations for us. When we told him we wanted to book an excursion, he showed up minutes later with someone who handled it at the pool. The other one was the DJ. Once again, a great personality and excellent at his job. We met him on day one at the bar and requested a couple of songs from an international playlist. He embraced it and played it whenever he saw us. Can’t wait to come back.
