Unique Club at Lopesan Costa Bávaro Resort

LikedThe property was very nice, all newer facilities. Its a large property, you will get your steps in! There were a lot of food options available with average to above average quality of food. The "Boulevard" with all the different things to do there was nice to have for some entertainment at night, including the (small) casino. The Unique side of the beach was nice to have a secluded area. Victor, our butler, was very timely and took care of all of our requests as soon as possible. The gym is really big and has everything you need. There is a clinic and pharmacy on site with everything you need there.

DislikedIt's hard justifying the cost of the Unique package. We were originally told of a 30 minute massage, which ends up being a 45 minute hydrotherapy or basically a high pressure water fountain and cold jetted pool. We didn't get any extra bottles of rum. The lobster offer is also deceiving because it is only offered on select days. We were not made aware of this and had preplanned our reservations at different restaurants. The Unique club buffet was nice with higher quality food but the food tended to be cold and there was more variety at the other buffets. The service was also lacking throughout the property. In some restaurants, such as Gondola, we waited over 1.5 hours from when we ordered to getting our food. On the beach/pool, the servers were too far and few to take our drink orders and most times you wouldn't be able to get a drink order in for a long time. While the beach is beautiful with really blue waters and a private area for Unique, there were too many vendors running through selling products. In addition, there are boats surrounding the property, often playing extremely loud music as they pass by. The drinks, property, and restaurant food quality was amazing, it is hard justifying the extra cost of the unique package when we didn't receive most of the benefits of Unique. Do yourselves a favor and book the regular or adults only, save your money. You will get 95% of the hotel with the non-Unique package while saving your money.

LikedThis hotel was terrible. I was here for 10 days and I had a bad stay. The only good thing was the location and the pool

DislikedThis hotel was terrible from the beginning. We were here for 10 days. The staff, The security specialty vector (didn't show his badge so this is what he said the receptionists called David and katirin. The first night was terrible they gave a room that was not the one we booked and it was not clean at all. the main reception was closed. we got to the hotel at 1 and got our rooms at 3:30. Secondly the security followed my family and watched us in an uncomfortable way for no reason. On our third day I went to walk at the beach at 10 pm and there was only one security there no one else. When I came back 10 minutes later my shoe was gone and my socks were left on the sand. I went to the guest service and told them this and they didn't even look at the security camera and told me sorry it was lost we can't help you. There was no clean towels in our room and we called 5 times to ask them for new towels but they brought them the next day.

LikedAmazing buffet and a la carts restaurants, it didn’t feel like an all inclusive at all, I felt I was at a very expensive restaurant. The staff is super nice and always ready to help out and make sure your stay is the best it can be. Loved the pools and waterpark. Overal the best all inclusive I’ve been to in de Dominican Republic and I’ve been to quite a few. Definitely coming back again!

LikedResort is exactly what was expected and then some.

LikedSuper clean, the staff was amazing and friendly. We booked the unique option and the food was just outstanding. We weren’t able to try all restaurants but the ones we went to were great.
