PHILADELPHIA – AMResorts’ newest resort, Now Onyx Punta Cana, is officially open, welcoming families and leisure guests to the pristine beaches of Uvero Alto in the Dominican Republic.

After celebrating its grand opening on Nov. 2, the resort becomes the brand’s third property in the DR featuring its Unlimited-Luxury concept, gourmet dining and premium spirits, 24-hour room and concierge service, daily refreshed minibar and a variety of day and night entertainment options.

“The Dominican Republic continues to stand out in Caribbean travel, and the island is expected to welcome six million visitors by the end of this year*,” said Jan LaPointe, Senior Director of AMRewards and Sales & Marketing, Canada. “The strength of the Dominican Republic tourism market presented an ideal scenario to not only expand our footprint in the region, but also increase our family-friendly offering in an idyllic destination where guests can relax, be entertained and enjoy a memorable vacation.”

Guests can enjoy five swimming pools, including an infinity pool, children’s pool and saltwater pool, while younger guests can take advantage of the Explorer’s Club for Kids and the Core Zone Teens Club. Additionally, for those looking to enjoy time alone without the kids, the resort’s Preferred Club and French restaurant Mercure offer relaxing adults-only spaces.

Beyond the nine restaurants and 10 bars at Now Onyx Punta Cana, guests can enjoy the offerings at nearby Dreams and Now Resorts & Spas with the exclusive Sip, Savour & See program. Additionally, guests over the age of 18 can experience even more with access to facilities at neighbouring Breathless Punta Cana Resort & Spa including a casino, the After Dark nightclub, the Spa by Pevonia and a fitness center, all included with Unlimited-Luxury.

For all new reservations, up to two kids stay free when travelling in the same room as two paying adults. Travel now through Dec. 22, 2016 and from Aug. 19, 2017 through Dec. 22, 2017 to take advantage of this offer.
