Bahia Principe Hotels & Resorts Announces Portfolio Rebranding

Bahia Principe Hotels & Resorts – the leader in all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean, is reorganizing its 24-hotel portfolio, reclassifying properties into four categories and segmented experiences. The new categories and segments will ultimately simplify the process for consumers to identify which hotel will best fulfill their vacation goals and allow them to experience happiness. 

The four hotel categories include Luxury Bahia Principe, including the brand’s most luxurious hotels; Grand Bahia Principe, featuring five-star hotels; Sunlight Bahia Principe, for all Spain-based properties; and Fantasia Bahia Principe, a family-friendly concept that offers thematic hotels, inspired by the success of the brand’s newest property in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. The brand will debut Fantasia Bahia Principe Tenerife, its second Fantasia property, on November 2018 in Spain.

“The Fantasia Bahia Principe hotels will deliver the highest standards in quality and service, but, above all, will guarantee a thematic experience in which everyone can enjoy our first-class amenities and exciting activities, regardless of age,” said Isabel Pinero, Vice-President of Marketing & Communications for Grupo Piñero, the parent company of Bahia Principe Hotels & Resorts.

In addition to the new categories, hotels will also be segmented by experience, including:

• Treasure: hotels in unique and off-the-beaten path locations
• Escape: adults-only properties
• Family & Friends: for those that seek a wholesome experience for travelers with varying age groups and vacation preferences
