Hilton is marking the debut of the Zemi Miches Punta Cana All-Inclusive Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton – the first Curio Collection all-inclusive resort in the Dominican Republic.
Facing the pristine shores of Playa Esmeralda, the oceanfront 500-room resort offers a blend of local tradition and world-class services. Amenities include 14 distinct dining venues, bars and lounges; enriching kids club programming; multiple pools and 2,000 feet of beachfront; as well as Club Azure, a premium category offering guest rooms, suites and bungalows with exclusive benefits and tailored experiences.
“Our latest debut in the Dominican Republic broadens our presence and underscores our commitment to redefining the all-inclusive experience in the world’s most desirable destinations,” said Danny Hughes, president, Americas, Hilton.
“Zemi Miches Punta Cana All-Inclusive Resort blends Hilton’s signature service and elevated all-inclusive offerings with the natural splendor and cultural richness of Miches — one of the Dominican Republic’s most enchanting and undiscovered gems. We are delighted to introduce travellers to Miches and set a new benchmark for all-inclusive hospitality in the region.”
Located about 100 kilometers west of Punta Cana International Airport, Miches is a serene, undiscovered coastal town offering an authentic Dominican atmosphere that combines an idyllic fishing village’s charm with nature preserves and palm-lined beaches.
“Miches was the perfect location for the first Curio Collection all-inclusive resort in the Dominican Republic because it resonates with guests who are seeking authentic connections, transformative experiences, and meaningful escapes,” said Nicole Tilzer, vice president, all-inclusive & resort strategy, Hilton.
“Guests want to be immersed in the genuine soul of a place while enjoying world-class amenities and service, so we’ve created a high-end all-inclusive that sparks curiosity to discover Miches’ untouched beauty and rich Dominican culture while offering the distinctive, curated hospitality that defines the Curio Collection brand.”
Spanning across six contoured buildings boasting carefully curated indoor and outdoor spaces, the resort features 500 guest rooms, suites, and bungalows. Accommodations offer sweeping views of Playa Esmeralda, with interiors that combine modern elegance and eco-conscious materials. Select rooms include private balconies, while 119 ground-floor suites feature private plunge pools for an indulgent all-inclusive stay.
For guests that choose the Club Azure offering, there are 87 rooms and 28 suites providing spacious accommodations and exclusive perks, such as private check-in, a personal concierge, premium in-room amenities and a 1,470-square-foot rooftop infinity pool lined with umbrellas and lounging spaces. Guests staying in one of the resort’s 20 oceanfront Bungalows also enjoy exclusive access to Club Azure, along with spacious layouts ranging from studios to one and two bedrooms, and private pools just steps from the beach.
At Zemi Miches Punta Cana All-Inclusive Resort, the region’s traditions are brought to life in the resort’s design and through immersive cultural programming that brings the island’s heritage to life. Guests can take part in Dominican-inspired ceremonies, live performances, artisanal workshops, and culinary and mixology classes, all designed to offer a deeper connection to the local culture and a true sense of place.
Families will find enriching activities at every turn. The Coki Cove Kids Club (ages 3–12) offers a vibrant mix of cultural and educational programming, marine conservation workshops, and a kids’ bakery, blending fun with education in a thoughtfully curated environment.
Recreational highlights include an outdoor theatre with nightly entertainment, a locally curated retail shop, and a wide range of water activities — from four sparkling pools and non-motorized watersports to two swim-up bars.
The resort boasts a wide array of global flavors at 14 restaurants, bars, and lounges, with menus inspired by native and seasonal ingredients and the traditional cuisine of the Caribbean, Thailand, and the Amalfi Coast. Executive Chef Frankely Castillo utilizes bold flavors, and time-honored cooking methods to create exceptional culinary journeys that celebrate local heritage while delivering unforgettable, authentically crafted epicurean adventures.
Club Azure guests will have access to two exclusive dining venues: The Royal Palm, a Caribbean-inspired rooftop lounge serving light bites, appetizers, and handcrafted cocktails throughout the day. This premium lounge features Caicu, an exclusive bar featuring an infinity pool overlooking Playa Esmeralda. Jagua, a dedicated all-day dining restaurant accessible only to Bungalow guests, features jungle-inspired décor and a refined seafood-focused menu.
