A prestigious oasis in Costa Bavaro
The hotel brand Lopesan has officially expanded its presence in the Dominican Republic with the opening of three new five-star establishments in May 2026. Located along the Costa Bavaro Boulevard in Punta Cana, these addresses sit adjacent to the Lopesan Costa Bavaro Resort, Spa & Casino to form a major complex. This integrated hotel group, strategically positioned on one of the most popular coasts of the Caribbean, represents a major development for the Lopesan group and for the tourist destination of Punta Cana. The decision to develop these three new structures adjacent to the existing complex allows for a unique synergy, creating a destination in its own right where visitors can move between the different atmospheres while benefiting from the quality of service and expertise of Lopesan.
The complex brings together a complete range of facilities designed to satisfy every expectation: no fewer than eight swimming pools of varied designs, ranging from vast lagoons to more intimate pools, multiple restaurants and bars offering culinary diversity ranging from local gastronomy to international flavours, a theatre for evening shows, a casino offering entertainment and gaming, a bowling alley for convivial moments, as well as water parks dedicated to water pleasures for all ages. The immediate proximity of three natural cenotes, those underground or open-air pools typical of the region, also offers privileged access to swimming and snorkelling sessions in environments of exceptional natural beauty. This combination of modern leisure infrastructure and access to unique natural sites positions the complex as a destination of choice for a discerning clientele.
Punta Cana, located at the eastern tip of the Dominican Republic, is globally renowned for its pristine white sand beaches and turquoise waters, making it one of the most popular Caribbean destinations. The Costa Bavaro area, in particular, is an epicentre of luxury tourism, attracting major hotel investments. The establishment of these new complexes by Lopesan, a Spanish hotel group of international scale, confirms the attractiveness of the region and its capacity to host high-end hotel projects. The expertise of Lopesan, forged over many years of operations in destinations such as the Canaries, is leveraged to offer a first-class hotel experience, with particular attention to detail, quality of service and harmonious integration into the local landscape.
Lopesan Caoba Lagoon Resort, Spa & Casino
Three exclusive concepts for every requirement
The development of these three distinct establishments under the aegis of Lopesan in Punta Cana demonstrates a clear strategy of diversifying the offering. The objective is to respond precisely to the varied expectations of an international clientele, by offering targeted experiences for families, couples and groups of friends. This approach allows for the creation of unique atmospheres within the same large complex, offering visitors the flexibility to choose the type of stay that best suits their desires, while benefiting from the quality and shared infrastructure of the whole. This complementarity between the different concepts is a major strength of the project, allowing each guest to find their happiness, whether they are looking for the peace of a romantic getaway, the animation of a family stay or the excitement of a trip focused on water entertainment.
Lopesan Caoba Lagoon Resort, Spa & Casino: The family oasis par excellence
Designed to accommodate both couples and families, the Lopesan Caoba Lagoon Resort offers a green setting structured around several pools and lush tropical gardens. The emphasis is on landscape integration, offering shaded relaxation areas and flower-lined paths that invite strolling. The establishment integrates targeted entertainment programmes by age group, designed to entertain young children, pre-teens and teenagers, with fun and educational activities supervised by professionals. Dedicated children’s and teen clubs offer secure and stimulating spaces, allowing parents to enjoy moments of peace. Complete sports facilities are also available, including playgrounds, facilities for various racket and ball sports, as well as outdoor training areas. Water sports enthusiasts have easy access to surfing, scuba diving and snorkelling activities, taking advantage of the ideal conditions of the Dominican coast.
The accommodation package offered at the Lopesan Caoba Lagoon Resort includes all the fundamental services for a worry-free stay: high-speed Wi-Fi connection accessible throughout the establishment, a dedicated mobile application offering quick access to hotel services and activity programming, a 24-hour reception to respond to all requests, a minibar regularly restocked in each room and daily room cleaning service to guarantee optimal comfort. Beyond these basic services, tailor-made services, including a professional and flexible babysitting service, as well as personalised well-being treatments at the hotel spa, are offered as options to enrich the experience of each resident. The spa, a true haven of peace, offers a complete range of relaxing and revitalising treatments, using modern techniques and high-quality products.
Lopesan Serenity Bay Resort, Spa & Casino: Exclusivity reserved for adults
The Lopesan Serenity Bay Resort asserts itself as an enclave reserved exclusively for adults, designed for a break focused on rest, disconnection and serenity. The architecture of this establishment privileges clean lines and soft materials, inspired by natural elements, integrating harmoniously into the surrounding landscape to create an atmosphere of calm and refinement. The atmosphere is deliberately soothing, far from the bustle of family complexes, offering intimate spaces and personalised services. The catering offer highlights fresh and seasonal local products, transformed into authentic and innovative recipes, crafted with sobriety and elegance for a refined taste experience. The bars offer a selection of elaborate cocktails and fine wines, to be savoured in settings conducive to relaxation. Reserved swimming pools and private beach areas guarantee absolute tranquillity for residents.
As part of their stay, residents of the Lopesan Serenity Bay Resort have extended access rights to the neighbouring facilities of the Lopesan Caoba Lagoon and the Lopesan Splash Cove. This interconnection allows adults to benefit from the peace of their own establishment while having the opportunity to enjoy the livelier entertainment, evening shows or additional dining options offered by the other hotels in the complex, if they wish. It is a unique value proposition that combines the exclusivity of an adults-only retreat with the richness of services of a large complex. Whether for a romantic retreat, a special celebration or simply an escape from the daily routine, the Lopesan Serenity Bay Resort offers an idyllic setting to recharge.
Lopesan Splash Cove Resort, Spa & Casino: The paradise of water leisure
Oriented towards leisure and conviviality, the Lopesan Splash Cove Resort is specifically aimed at families, groups of friends and couples looking for a stay punctuated by adventure and fun.

In addition, a giant wave pool offers thrills and fun for all ages, while direct and privileged access to the Aquatica and Splash Island amusement parks promises entire days of slides, water games and exciting activities. These water parks are equipped with varied slides, lazy rivers and interactive water play areas, guaranteeing entertainment and refreshment under the Caribbean sun.
Beyond the water attractions, the facilities at the Lopesan Splash Cove Resort also include a modern and well-equipped fitness centre, allowing guests to maintain their workout routine.
