Anyone knows the current rate for adding a kid to the point booking? My concierge called the hotel and told me that it is $160 + tax/fees per kid per night. Is this right? BTW - my stay will be the Thanksgiving week. Thanks for any info.
Another question - do they have any specialty restaurant that we need to pay surcharge to dine? If so, how much and whether it is worth the money? Thanks,

This might be the new normal. My experience at both Ziva Cap Cana and Ziva Cancun was an additional $150 per extra adult. I received word from my concierge that at Cap Cana, that has now increased to $180, so this could be something new across all Playa operated resorts.

Thanks a lot for the info. With 160 per kid rate, I would need to burn 320 per night for my 2 young kids. I have better way to spend the 320 per night, such as at Grand Hyatt Playa Del Carmen.

Ziva Award Nights During HIgh Season (Christmas/New Years)
Hi All,
Thinking about doing a trip here but have limited window for vacation, and wanted to leverage stay using points. Was wondering if Ziva Cancun releases award rooms for Christmas/New Year's, and if the rate is inflated or has a surcharge.
Couldn't find any award nights for this year, obviously... and would like to know if I need to make some mattress runs and Hyatt credit card applications should award nights be possible during those times.
Thanks in advance.

Hyatt Ziva Cancun
Checked in today as globalist after booking king suite with sofa bed resort view. Upgraded to double suite ocean view with our 12 year old. Only charged $90 per night for the child. Stayed at Ziva Cap Cana in April and I think we paid at least $120 per night. We received a butler during our stay at Cap Cana, but no mention of a butler here. Is that typical?

After many months of checking daily for our September trip, I was informed pyramid suites are no longer available for upgrades using TSU. Only club corner rooms are eligible now.

Do you not get points for paid upgrades here? I just completed a 4 night stay booked with points for a standard room and a paid upgrade to Turquoise Tower. The upgrade isn't even on my bill (only transportation and gift shop charges).

send hyatt a Facebook or Twitter message 3 days after your stay, I have been credited 0 points on 2 stays, also I didn't earn points for cabana rentals.

There are many reports, including myself, where there are issues with points postings of Ziva/Zilara, especially if prepaid. You need to complain. Cabanas and other incidentials would earn points.
