MIAMI – Waldorf Astoria Costa Rica Punta Cacique, a luxury oceanfront resort with breathtaking views of Playa Penca is now accepting reservations for stays beginning April 22, 2025. The resort is one of Hilton’s (NYSE: HLT) most anticipated openings in the Caribbean and Latin America (CALA), and is slated to join Hilton’s portfolio of more than 280 hotels across the region this spring.
Marking the Waldorf Astoria brand’s debut in the country, Waldorf Astoria Costa Rica Punta Cacique will uniquely blend Costa Rica’s “Pura Vida” lifestyle with world-class sophistication and sincerely elegant service.

“With reservations now open, we eagerly look forward to welcoming guests to experience the destination with the bespoke service that Waldorf Astoria is known for,” said Ruben Gabino, general manager, Waldorf Astoria Costa Rica Punta Cacique. “The opening of Waldorf Astoria Costa Rica Punta Cacique will provide travelers seeking a peaceful escape centered around natural beauty and tranquility in the refined haven they have been waiting for in the destination.”
Situated on the dramatic cliffside peninsula of Cacique on the secluded Playa Penca, the resort cascades down a 300-foot exuberant cliffside, overlooking the sapphire blue waters of the Pacific Ocean. The resort’s thoughtful design led by Mexico based design firm Sordo Madaleno Arquitectos fuses modern architecture and superior amenities with tropical surroundings, native flora, and fauna, connecting guests with the natural environment and enchanting them with expansive ocean and tropical forest views from every location, including the 148 guest rooms and 40 suites that offer the utmost privacy.
The resort will feature six dining outlets, including a signature restaurant focused on the flavors of the Pacific which will delight guests with an immersive coastal dining experience, while the brand signature Peacock Alley Bar will celebrate the “Pura Vida” lifestyle of Costa Rica, offering locally inspired craft cocktails and light bites.
The resort will offer a thoughtfully curated wellness program that includes mindfulness practices, fitness routines, holistic therapies, and native rituals, so guests can nourish mind, body and soul. The signature Waldorf Astoria Spa, which is inspired by the region's rich biodiversity, will provide a sanctuary for replenishment and rejuvenation, while multi-level pools, a state-of-the-art gym complete with a movement studio and outdoor yoga, complete the wellness amenities. Younger guests will be able to enjoy a wide range of family-friendly activities in the kids center and teens club.
