Once complete, the luxurious all-inclusive will boast an amazing variety of amenities, rooms, and facilities that will cater to the growing luxury travel segment.
Amid stiff competition from other leading hotel brands, such as Moon Palace and Meliá, which are also building new properties in the popular resort destination, Lopesan has its work cut out for it. As travelers increasingly seek new immersive experiences, it’ll be more important than ever for the Spanish-based firm to deliver exceptional quality to guests.
That’s why Lopesan is pushing the envelope in terms of luxury and unique experiences with its newest resort, focusing heavily on fun activities for the whole family. Among other amenities, La Ceiba will offer travelers several large outdoor pools, a lazy river, and a wave pool.
