8 people in a group?

Not sure how it happened but with 2 holes left, we hit a big delay. 4 carts and 8 golfers. Needless to say, that made our last two holes a 40 minute challenge having to wait for all 8 golfers to play. Not sure where the Marshall was?

Two nines

Front nine is narrow and shorter than the m7ch wider and slightly longer back nine. The front nine is less forgiving and you have no good misses. Back nine is more forgiving. Overall Good challenge for serious golfers with excellent pace of play

A great round of golf! Drinks and food are included which is a bonus.

The only downside is that most of the bunkers were unplayable, lots of small rocks. We would rake and place the ball as most were packed down.

A small issue in an otherwise wonderful round!

Beautiful day Mostly LOL

I have played this course many times over the years and it just gets more beautiful every time I play. We did get a torrential rain storm that lasted about 20min. We it quit it took no time at all for the fairways to dry up.

Amazing looking course!

Course was absolutely amazing visually! We arrived and the staff were really not efficient in English so the dialect was a little hard to understand and not a lot of smiles and the facial expressions were not very welcoming but not overall horrible!

We waited on a group all day after about the 7th hole, when we first seen them but at a destination course you expect that with all the tourist!

Except for the first green, they rest looked amazing and putted very true, greens were very slow and inconsistent with the speed, definitely would have had a better experience with faster greens, (they were rolling about a 8)!

As for the value, it’s wasn’t horrible, I was able to book for $235 for 2 people thru the golf now app, while the 2 guys we played with paid $250 a piece! And the club rentals were reasonable, we had 2 lefties and they allowed us to play out of 1 bag with an $25 dollar up charge!

I personally think any course that cost over 200 to play isnt worth the value unless it’s PGA quality because you can find others that are almost just as good for cheaper!

I don’t know if I would play this course again(especially at the full price of $250 per)being that I like to play different courses and it’s in another country but it definitely looked amazing and I had a very enjoyable round! If you can get it for around $125 it’s definitely worth it!

Carts / Driving range need some work

Overall the round was a 5 star. However the driving range was quite beat-up. The grass was pretty chewed up and had mostly sand to cover the surface. The range balls were covered with sand.

As well the course appeared to have a shortage of golf carts. We were given a cart when we arrived but our other 2-some had to wait 20 minutes before receiving their carts. The two carts appeared to be the oldest carts in the fleet and were quite beat-up. Our cart started giving us grief on the first hole and needed to be recharged. Luckily a Marshall came by and said we would be given a better cart shortly. A few minutes later the Marshall returned and had to give us his cart as no cart were available. Cart was also beat-up but worked except it didn’t have a working parking brake. We had to ensure the cart was always parked on a level area in order to prevent the cart rolling away.

Not for the love of music

Played on a busy day. They announced when we arrived that no cart was available yet since they were sold out. Had lunch and returned to range to warm up. The range is an empty field with mud, gravel and cement. A hodgepodge of practice balls all muddy. The Bart they gave us was old, beat up and had no significant brake. Pace of play was slow. Our foursome waited on every shot on every hole. Better courses in DR for the money. Pro shop nice and sandwiches and beer included..

Good Value — Great Staff

Nice track. Forgiving fairways and nice large greens. Bunkers are a bit rough but…that’s golf. Excellent service and flexibility on assigned Tee Time. Wanna go early? Go. Played it 3X during our stay. We’ll be back!

Finding excellent deals on Golf Pass prices. Love that…

Challenging around the green

Course layout is interesting, maybe forgiving a bid off the tee, but not very forgiving if missing the approach shot to the green, because of the bunker and bunkers condoois unpredictable and almost no flat areas around the hole on any green! We really enjoyed this course, and still find it challenging even after 30 rounds at this course fruiting our 70 days stay in the area. Staff is very friendly and helpful, free drinks & snacks are served at the clubhouse bar and from the food/drink cart in the golf course.

An excellent golf experience

I played the course on a Monday morning and didn’t see anybody until I got to the 15th hole. Of course has a nice mix of long holes new short holes. The greens are very good, the fairways receptive, and the overall condition of the course was excellent. I highly recommend this course.
