This leatherback hatchling was born in Miches, protected by our Protortuga initiative.
MICHES offers a unique proposition, with curated experiences and services designed to satisfy even the most discerning visitors.
From watching the sunset on lush Playa Esmeralda, setting out on a sailing excursion, or whale watching in Samaná Bay, to hiking to Salto de la Jalda—one of the highest waterfalls in the Caribbean—exploring the mountains on foot or by bicycle, and taking excursions through Los Haitises National Park. In Miches, we have made the concept of “luxury” tangible through an experience that goes beyond the material: a unique model of high-level service in harmony with the natural environment of this part of the Dominican Republic.
Its diverse offering translates into countless activities and experiences. Its beaches and ocean are home to marine wildlife such as sea turtles, humpback whales and manatees, as well as landscapes unlike anywhere else in the country, framed by its beautiful bay.
As a new destination, our goal is to develop Miches sustainably, standing out for an elevated and authentic experience that is truly one of a kind, with luxury facilities and services and a complementary offering that benefits both the destination and its visitors, so that guests feel their visit contributes to the environmental and social well-being of the local area.
Miches is an ideal destination for travelers seeking to connect with a place that is rich in nature and culture. It appeals to visitors who prefer natural spaces and enjoy an exclusive, non-mass-market destination away from the hustle and bustle. These travelers value environmentally responsible, authentic and high-quality experiences. They care about the environment, are curious to discover it, understand its sensitivity and the impact their visit may have, and are willing to contribute so that their impact is positive.
Promiches is a business association dedicated to the development and positioning of this new tourism destination.
Since 2020, it has promoted the establishment of responsible companies aligned with economic growth, social well-being, and the protection and promotion of the area’s environmental and cultural diversity.
