I was there in January 2026, loved it! Beautiful beach, great food at the restaurants & buffets

I went to this resort 2 years ago and it was very nice.

Hi! This is the resort i booked for my girls trip. Thanks for your recommendations

Looks like a really nice all-inclusive. We stayed at Serenade Suites 2 years ago and although it was OK, Lopesan looks far nicer and will definitely be a future consideration when we take a break from the Canadian cold. Thanks for the video!

Just recently was there for the first time and it was amazing! Being from Dominican background it’s so nice to have a resort that offers so much! Food was very good! Rooms are comfortable and spacious! We were there for 4 days 3 nights. Made reservations right away for the Mexican, Hibachi and Steak house. Used the pool only! Beach is what it is! it highly recommend this place! Don’t stay at the budget friendly Bávaro Palace!

Stayed here for 2 weeks in November as unique package and this hotel is absolutely fantastic.

However I would only visit here with Unique Package, the breakfast on the beach alone makes it worth it.

Just back from Lopesan Bávaro resort, love this resort, the infinite pool is great, we also use another smaller pool which has less people。 Resort is beautiful, especially the blvd area where has more bars, coffee shop etc.. we went there several times each day.
Will go back again.

Great review! I started following your channel not long ago and I’m seriously impressed — you’re definitely going somewhere 🙌
Quick question about Lopesan. We’re planning a trip in January 2027 with 4–5 couples (no kids). Any recommendations on room types or adult-only sections?
We love daytime entertainment with good vibes (not crazy March Break party energy), dancing at night, and solid shows/music. We’re not into modern concrete resorts or American rock vibes — we prefer lush, green resorts, cultural immersion, and Latino music.
Based on that, would you recommend Lopesan for us? Any downsides we should know about that might push you to suggest another resort instead? If so, which one?
We just got back from Dreams and Breathless and absolutely loved them 😄
Thanks!

Have you been to Finest Punta Cana and how does this compare to that?

@chrisimbriacco 8 months ago

Beautiful resort , super clean , food was great as well. But , the beach is not the greatest and the boats constantly coming and going with tourists on excursions , was a deal-breaker for me and my wife. This section of the beach in Punta Cana is not the greatest as well.

When did you visit the Lopesan Casino?

@eddiedsuza 8 months ago

Appreciate the video and tour. Will be there in April. Out of Curiosity (have seen in another video) - are they charging an additional 10% when paying by credit card ?

@IvannotJuan .... question please. Have you been to Bahia Principe Grand in Punta Cana? That place had a terrible mosquito problem. Does the Lopesan Costa Bavaro also have a mosquito problem? Another question - I am coming Lopesan this March. For 1 week as a solo traveler. Is there a limit how many Restaurants I book per customer? For example, 4 reservations? or 5? Is there a restriction? Bahia had a restriction.

We've booked a 7 nights package at Lopesan. We booked a regular King swim up suite. Is it worth upgrading to unique? My wife's vegetarian and we have a 5 month old baby with us.
