Kathmandu park to arrive in March as hotel entertainment

The park, which was originally scheduled to open in November, will be part of the Falcon’s Resort by Meliá in Punta Cana.

Under the “resortainment” concept, a combination of luxury hotel services and entertainment, Katmandu Park, the new theme park included in the Falcon’s Resort by Meliá | All Suites Punta Cana hotel, will be inaugurated on March 15.

As a sort of “combo”, the park, which was originally said to be operating from November 2022, will be open to the public as part of the entertainment at the new hotel of the Meliá Hotels International and Falcon’s Beyon chain, which opened its doors in December.

Those staying at the hotel will have the park included in their rate, while those who only wish to visit Kathmandu will be able to do so by paying $120 per person, a ticket that will give access to 10 attractions.

The new attraction that the Dominican Republic will have was announced at a meeting with the press, as part of the activities prior to the International Tourism Fair (Fitur 2023) where the country is a co-sponsor.

“It always goes hand in hand with a theme park.” This is how Sara Ranghi, marketing director, explains the concept, indicating that the idea allows presenting a hotel with elegance and entertainment.

This combo, which goes together in a second stage with the renovation of Paraíso Punta Cana, has a cost of 400 million dollars.

Katmandu could not be inaugurated in November due to the delay with the machinery for the park’s attractions, most of which came from the United States and Asia. Ranghi explained that this was due to the effects of the COVID and, in order to avoid any failure for safety reasons, it was decided to postpone it until this March.

Falcon’s Resort by Meliá | All Suites Punta Cana is part of a new $350 million entertainment destination called Falcon’s Beyond Destinations that will feature three distinct guest experiences: the resort, a new theme park and a shopping, dining and entertainment center called Falcon’s Central.Katmandu Park
