Since 2017, Hyatt has doubled its number of luxury rooms, tripled its number of resort rooms, and quintupled its number of lifestyle rooms globally. This growth establishes Hyatt as the fastest-growing luxury portfolio with the largest number of luxury-branded rooms in resort locations worldwide and underscores Hyatt’s position as the premier hotel brand for high-end travelers seeking rich and experiential luxury, resort and lifestyle stays. Hyatt found in its recent Mid-Year 2024 Consumer Sentiment and Travel Expectations Report that 88% of consumers are showing a steady intent to travel for leisure.

“We are engaged with our guests and World of Hyatt members and taking in their feedback helps us strengthen our understanding of the key markets and leisure experiences that resonate with and excite them the most,” said Crystal Vinisse Thomas, vice president and global brand leader for Hyatt’s luxury and lifestyle brands. “From Deer Valley to Miami to Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico, our luxury and lifestyle brands’ expansion in new and key markets is driven by our desire to offer travelers more opportunities to explore the unique communities our hotels are a part of and the chance to embark on incredible experiences with Hyatt.”
