Tafer Hotels & Resorts, a leisure and hospitality company known for its collection of hotels, luxury resorts and boutique villas across Mexico and the Caribbean, launches its hospitality management services. The company will manage three properties: Palmar Azul Beach in Mexico’s Riviera Maya, Garza Blanca Resort & Spa Miches and Kairi Club Miches both in the Dominican Republic.
Tafer’s management services span all dimensions of hospitality, from architectural design, concept design and resort management to residential and timeshare management, full-service marketing and destination travel agency services. In this latest endeavor, the company will leverage its existing portfolio of luxury brands and its firsthand knowledge of every aspect of operations and innovation to ensure properties under its management are desirable, long-term assets.
"Today marks a new chapter for Tafer Hotels & Resorts as we debut our hotel management services, expanding our commitment to excellence, innovation and success for a growing portfolio of luxury hotels and resorts,” Sasa Milojevic, COO for Tafer Hotels & Resorts, said in a statement. “Starting with these first three hotel deals, we look forward to working with valued partners to bring signature brands to coveted destinations, delivering unforgettable vacation experiences for guests while achieving seamless oversight and impressive returns for owners and developers in Mexico, the Caribbean and beyond.”
Tafer will reopen Palmar Azul Beach Resort Riviera Maya by Tafer, formerly Azul Beach Resort Riviera Cancun, as a luxury all-inclusive escape in Mexico’s Quintana Roo in January 2025 following an extensive renovation. Under Tafer's expert management, Palmar Azul Beach Resort will cater to discerning multigenerational guests with spacious and well-appointed multi-bedroom suites, onsite spa, six pools, as well as eight bars and eight restaurants, including the Michelin-starred restaurant, helmed by renowned Chef Jonatán Gómez Luna. The property will offer guests vacations tailored to individual desires and styles, whether traveling as a couple, family, among friends, or as a part of a larger group.
Garza Blanca Resort & Spa Miches by Tafer in the Dominican Republic, a new build hotel opening in late 2026, will be nestled amid lush palm groves and the coastal shores of the Playa Esmeralda beach in Samaná Bay. This property represents the expansion of Tafer and its award-winning Garza Blanca Resort & Spa brand beyond Mexico, bringing its signature hallmarks of service excellence, contemporary design, gourmet all-inclusive cuisine, and inspiring experiences and amenities for travelers of all generations to the Caribbean.
Kairi Club Miches by Tafer, a new adults-only concept, will also debut in late 2026 in the Dominican Republic. Situated in the heart of the coastal town of Miches and surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty and awe-inspiring views along sandy stretches of the Playa Esmeralda beach, the all-inclusive resort will afford guests an idyllic Caribbean retreat, all within easy reach of Punta Cana International Airport.
