Secrets and Dreams La Romana share the same resort complex but have different entrances and arrival areas. Make sure your reservation names the correct side: Dreams La Romana Resort & Spa for the family resort, or Secrets La Romana Resort & Spa for the adults-only side.
Was Dreams La Romana formerly Hilton La Romana?
Yes. Dreams La Romana Resort & Spa is the current name of the family side of the resort complex formerly known as Hilton La Romana. The property history: it originally operated as Sunscape Casa del Mar, became the dual Hilton La Romana Family Resort and Adult Resort in 2019, and joined Hyatt's Inclusive Collection in 2025 — the family side became Dreams La Romana and the adults-only side became Secrets La Romana.
If your hotel confirmation says Hilton La Romana, check whether it refers to the family side (this page) or the adults-only side (Secrets La Romana), and enter the matching current resort name when booking your transfer. Do not confuse the beach resort with Hilton Garden Inn La Romana, which is a separate city hotel in La Romana town.
