==== 🎯 What you get (or may miss) with Standard / Non-Preferred booking ====

If you don’t upgrade — you still get the base/all-inclusive resort offering that all guests enjoy at Secrets Playa Esmeralda: suites with private balconies/terraces, access to restaurants/bars, pools, beach, spa, general amenities, etc. Hyatt Inclusive Collection<ref>{{cite web|title=Hyatt Inclusive Collection|url=https://www.secretsresorts.com.mx/en/resorts-hotels/secrets/dominican-republic/playa-esmeralda/|publisher=Hyatt Inclusive Collection|access-date=2025-12-03}}</ref>

But you do not get the “club-level” extras:
* No access to the Private Lounge / Bar / Preferred-only areas.
* No guaranteed upgraded room location / premium room amenities.
* No exclusive pool or beach area reserved for Preferred-guests (so you share with all other general guests).
* No special concierge / butler service that is reserved for Preferred.
* No “preferred perks” like lounge breakfast, afternoon hors d’oeuvres, premium liquor in lounge, etc.

Essentially, you get the standard “all-inclusive” — a comfortable and nice stay — but without the extra comfort, exclusivity, and privileges that come with Preferred Club.
