The Rhythm Of Nature
The Caribbean is one of the most biodiverse regions on the planet. In terms of marine biodiversity, the conditions here are special thanks to the water temperature,salinity, depth, and turbidity. In our land ecosystems, mangrove swamps extend along numerous sections of coastline, as well as reservoirs, forests, desert formations, and more. This new project at Cayo Levantado Resort will invite guests to discover the other rhythm of the Dominican Republic, the “Hidden Rhythm.” An experience that brings the concept to life and in turn inspired the renovation of the resort, which will be based on three pillars of sustainability.
