Great course for great value

This was our first visit to the course and it will not be the last. It was easy to book, the staff was incredibly friendly and they made sure we had everything we needed. The driving range already had balls set up for us to hit and I cannot stress how clean the environment was. The golf carts are top notch and the course was in great condition. Don’t skip this course — it’s a must!

New carts.

They just got new carts .

Great looking carts just one problem is they have horns.

The players keep accidentally hitting the horn button during play.

But overall great course and beautiful golf carts.

Good value

I played single. The course is pretty good. The fareway and geen are well maintained. The cart path is not good at all. Most of the places are not paved.

Frequent Golfer

This course is in very good condition! The greens are excellent, especially for the price I paid on GolfNow. I was truly surprised to experience such a friendly staff, and very accommodating golf club. No it’s not Punta Estrada, or LaCana, but for the price you definitely will still be very pleased with this course. The greens are rolling at about a 11 or 12. You will not be disappointed with this good economical choice.

Not worth your time or money

This course sucks- I’m not gonna lie… iberostar and Hard Rock are both so close and not that much more money. Not even sure a hot deal price would be worth it. The greens have sand spots all over them on the front nine! The greens look like leopard print. There’s different kinds of grass everywhere and the bunkers stink! Don’t waste your precious vacation time here!

Good Hot Deal value

It was our first time golfing in the DR and we were pretty happy with the course. The fairways and greens are in reasonably good shape and there is very good signage between holes. (There is an extremely long drive between two holes that requires several signs and two security guards to find your way!) pace of play was okay - 4 1/2 hours but we had to wait on every hole which I do not enjoy. We will play here again because of the cost and the proximity to our hotel (taxis are very expensive in the DR)

Nice Course for the $$

Decent course for the price. Course was in good shape. There are nicer courses in the area, I suggest you read the reviews. Leave the sandwich on the turn behind & hopefully you don’t also have to call for a replacement cart.

Affordable but slow pace

It’s one of the cheapest places to play 18 holes in the area. With that in mind, for the price, it was an ok round of golf. The course layout was open and some greens were patchy. The pace of play was slow. You get a sandwich but drinks and chips are a couple dollars. Not a bad place, just a little rough around the edges. Very strict on dress code (women, cover your shoulders).

Average experience

The golf course is worth the reduced green fee, but nothing more. The bunkers were unfortunately mostly as hard as concrete.

Decent day out if you really want to play some golf

This course is ok if you really want to play some rounds at one of the cheaper courses around Punta Cana.

Nothing special but if you get it on Golf Now it may

make sense price wise. It attracts lots of player due to lower price so prepare for at least 4.5h. Call the Proshop to get a ride from your hotel. The range balls are not very good. Pay the extra to get better clubs if you rent ($35-55), the cheaper ones are not that great. If you play in the afternoon, maybe call in advance to make sure the clubs are reserved for you, otherwise you may have to wait for somebody to finish.
