The CEO of Lopesan Hotel Group, Francisco López, has had the opportunity to analyse, together with the President of the Dominican Republic, Luis Abinader, and the Minister of Tourism, David Collado, the ambitious development plan that the company plans to carry out in Punta Cana over the next few years. Among the future projects of the Lopesan Group, the second phase of the Lopesan Costa Bávaro Resort Spa & Casino, with an investment of around 225 million euros, stands out.
The professional meeting, held within the framework of the Dominician Annual Tourism Exchange, DATE 2022, has served to consolidate the existing ties of cooperation between the Lopesan Group and the Dominican executive. During the meeting, Abinader and Collado thanked the company for its efforts, commitment and determined contribution to the development of the country’s tourism industry, and took the opportunity to encourage Francisco López to continue his commitment to a business model based on excellence.
The construction of the Lopesan Costa Bávaro Resort Spa & Casino, which opened in May 2019, involved an investment of more than 337 million euros, generating 1,350 direct jobs and around 3,000 indirect jobs. Since its opening, this 5-star resort (*****) has managed to consolidate itself as one of the most exclusive and unique tourist proposals in the Caribbean, boosting the economy of the area and increasing the premium offer of Punta Cana.
