Punta Blanca Golf & Beach Club

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!

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)

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.

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).

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

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.

When going into the pro shop the workers were not pleased with the outfits that the we were wearing. We were not aware that there was a dress code for the course and requiring girls to buy clothes from the store in order to fit the dress code was unexpected. On top of that, they were criticizing what one of the girls was wearing in Spanish knowing that she did not speak Spanish, which left her feeling judged and disrespected. It is very strange to see a course that was not that great have the standards of a high end course. Myself and other have played at nicer courses wearing the same thing that we did today with no issues what so ever. Staff also criticized our ability to play by saying that we weren’t that good and we need to keep up with the pace of play which is very disrespectful for to say when you don’t even know how we play. Overall the staff was disrespectful and it was disappointing to go into a course with the expectation that it would be enjoyable and have that expectation be diminished within minutes of walking in.

First time playing this course.

Fairways wide open.

Greens in good condition.

Par 3s challenging.

The free lunch is terrible. A little chicken on a bun. Dry and no flavor. Just skip it.

Overall a nice course and we will be playing it again.

Would love my money back for the back 9 I couldn’t play.

Open and mostly straight.. absolutely picturesque.. play here every time I’m in the DR.

Well maintained course

Variable difficulty

Good quality rental equipment and cart

Friendly and attentive staff

Simple but pleasant complimentary snack

Drink available during the course

Very good value for money by Golf Now
