Marriott International¡¯s W Hotels brand is entering the all-inclusive arena, with the grand opening of the 340-room W Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic.
¡°The resort features 340 stylishly appointed guest rooms and suites, each starting at a spacious 700 square feet,¡± W Hotels said. ¡°Every room includes a bathtub and exclusively features king-size bed configurations, including the two-bed suites and the Oasis Mega Suites.¡±
Forty-six suites have swim-up pools, with a handful with full-sized pools.

¡°Trade Market offers an interactive dining experience, a food hall concept unique to the island with live-action stations inspired by global street food and fueled by fresh, local ingredients,¡± W Hotels said.
Public areas include Taproom, which doubles as a microbrewery and beer hall; Living Room Bar, featuring curated cocktails that pay homage to the Dominican Republic; and the 33 1/3 Speakeasy, whose ambiance hearkens back to the days of vinyl records.
The AWAY Spa boasts 10 treatment rooms and a menu that pays homage to local healing traditions; a steam room, Himalayan salt room, sauna; and indoor pool.
W Punta Cana also has a full-service beauty salon and the 1,500-square-foot FIT gym, which is open 24/7.

¡°Set against the stunning natural backdrop of Punta Cana¡¯s pristine beaches and lush landscape, this destination is the perfect location for the brand to debut its first-ever all-inclusive.¡±
