Punta Cana continues to strengthen its position as one of the Caribbean’s most competitive resort destinations, with Lopesan Hotel Group preparing to open three new all-inclusive properties in the Bávaro area of the Dominican Republic in late spring 2026.
The expansion builds on the success of the Lopesan Costa Bávaro Resort, Spa & Casino, which debuted in 2019, and reflects growing demand for differentiated resort experiences within a single destination.
Together, the new openings will add more than 1,000 rooms and create a connected resort complex designed to appeal to couples, families, groups and event travelers alike.
A Wellness-Driven Anchor Resort
The largest of the three new properties is the Lopesan Caoba Lagoon Resort, Spa & Casino, a 552-room resort positioned as the centerpiece of the expansion in the eastern Dominican Republic. Its design is centered around water, with cenote-inspired pools, expansive lagoons and landscaped gardens shaping the guest experience.
Amenities include multiple pool zones, a dedicated waterpark, private beach access and a 16,000-square-foot spa featuring 31 treatment rooms, positioning wellness as an integrated part of daily resort life rather than a scheduled activity.
Caoba Lagoon also plays a central role for meetings and events, with a convention center and flexible indoor and outdoor venues suitable for conferences, weddings and social gatherings. Guests staying here will enjoy exchange privileges at the two neighboring resorts, allowing them to move freely across the broader complex.
Adults-Only Calm And Family-Focused Fun
For travelers seeking a quieter, adults-only environment in the Dominican Republic, Lopesan Serenity Bay offers 239 suites housed within a single modern building. Designed as a retreat within the larger resort ecosystem, Serenity Bay combines exclusive adults-only dining and pool areas with access to shared entertainment such as a theater, nightclub and casino. The result is a balance between privacy and proximity to the energy of the wider complex.
Families and multigenerational travelers will find a distinct experience at Lopesan Splash Cove, a 244-room resort built around shared leisure and water-based activities. The property features five pools, including a dedicated children’s pool, along with entertainment and sports areas designed for all ages. While the beach is set slightly back from the resort, access is easy, and the layout emphasizes open space and relaxed movement throughout the property.
A Connected Resort Destination In The Dominican Republic
All four Lopesan properties in Punta Cana, including the existing Costa Bávaro resort, are linked by The Boulevard, an open-air promenade serving as the social heart of the complex. Lined with restaurants, bars and entertainment venues, it allows guests to move seamlessly between different dining and nightlife options without leaving the resort area.
Bookings for all three new resorts are now open, with a limited-time introductory offer available for early reservations. With this expansion, Lopesan Hotel Group is positioning Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic as a destination where travelers can choose highly tailored resort experiences while remaining connected to a shared Caribbean setting.
