Which resort looks best to you?
Personally, I’d pick Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana. I like that Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana has a Club Level and enough adults only restaurants for a longer stay.
Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall feels like an adults only section of a family resort versus a stand alone adults only all inclusive resort. I think this makes it a great option if you are traveling with other families that have kids.
If I stayed at Hyatt Zilara Cap Cana, I would definitely miss the jerk chicken and fun Jamaica vibe from Hyatt Zilara Rose Hall.
