Wyndham Hotels & Resorts is further growing its all-inclusive footprint via a partnership with Colombia-based Decameron Hotels & Resorts.
With the partnership, Wyndham adds nine midscale resorts to its all-inclusive portfolio. Four of them are now part of Wyndham's Ramada brand.
Three of the Ramada resorts are in Guayabitos on Mexico's Riviera Nayarit: the 240-room Decameron Los Cocos Guayabitos, 161-room Decameron La Marina Guayabitos and 146-room Decameron Isla Coral Guayabitos. One is in Jamaica: the 231-room Decameron Club Caribbean in Runaway Bay.
The other five all-inclusives are former Royal Decameron properties that have been reflagged as Grand Decameron resorts that are part of Wyndham's Trademark Collection. They are the 620-room Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias on Mexico's Riviera Nayarit, the 143-room Grand Decameron Los Cabos in Mexico, the 852-room Grand Decameron Panama in Farallon, Panama (about a 90-minute drive from Panama City), and two resorts in Montego Bay, Jamaica -- the 144-room Grand Decameron Montego Beach and 146-room Grand Decameron Cornwall Beach.
Rates start at around $150 per night at the Ramada all-inclusives and $250 per night at the Grand Decameron/Trademark Collection resorts, said Jimena Faena, Wyndham's vice president of marketing and brand operations for Latin America.
Faena added that Wyndham sees the Decameron partnership as a "first step" in growing both brands globally.
"As a company, we want to make all-inclusive available to all, and that means not only to those that can [afford] luxury vacations, but also those looking for something more approachable," said Faena. "Across all segments, we need to deliver a great vacation."
Decameron primarily draws clientele from Latin American countries.
The Decameron tie-up grows Wyndham's all-inclusive portfolio to a total of 60 properties. It builds on the debut of the Wyndham Alltra brand in 2021 and the formation of a partnership with Spain's Palladium Hotel Group in 2022.
The company also opened the Wyndham Grand Barbados, Sam Lord's Castle Resort & Spa all-inclusive in Bridgetown last year.
Correction: This is not Ramada's debut in all-inclusives.
