Guavaberry Golf & Country Club

This is the best course closest to Santo Domingo, about half hour once you are out of the city past the airport. This is a well designed course with tough holes carved in the jungle. The length is its toughness with ample hazards, greens are good to fast. Club house sucks but staff are friendly and nice, caddies are super nice and go out of their way to make the experience good. Price is good for the quality of the golf course. Speed of play is basically you are the only person on the course . Range balls are old dirty and worthless but at least ok to warm up.

this is a great Gary Player designed course, cut in the middle of a forest, jungle type. Every hole requires a good shot to stay in the fairways, ball position is key for your next shot, greens are sloped and true. A bit slow but still recovering from past aeration. From the tips with wind this course is tough measuring over 7300 yds at sea level. 18 is one of the toughest holes I've played at over 465 yds with a second shot demanding over 200 yds usually over a lava rock opening with hardly any place to go but short or on the green. The drive is almost always in the wind so anything over 250yds is a great drive at sea level with humidity and wind.
There's a par 3 with an island green at 157 yds with nothing but green to hit with usually a 10+ mph wind in your face, then another par 3 with two semi island greens with waterfall. Gorgeous course, very fast, I never see anyone playing here during the week. Great rate on golfnow, friendly staff, huge clubhouse, with pool, tennis if your kids or wife comes along. About 30 minutes from Santo Domingo if no traffic , well worth the drive and play.

this course is a gem , great layout, good condition, no one on the course so its really fast to play. Good greens , fairways, poor bunkers and challenging from the tips especially with wind. Caddies are nice and pofesional.

Closest to Santo Domingo and well worth the ride. Good value for this type of course. Club house is very lean on anything but balls. Nice restaurant but covid makes it limited in service. Beautiful building.

This course plays longer than the golf courses I have played before. I found myself using my long irons and fairways a lot more while playing this course.

It is overall a good course and will reward long-hitting players. It was very interesting to see a par 3 with two greens though I was told by the caddie they no longer use the left green.

To be honest, the only thing I recall about playing this Gary Player design was how blistering hot it was during my August round in the mid-2000s and how cool the 13th hole was. Player designed two greens to be rotated daily for play at the par-3 13th hole. Both are separated by a stream that cascades 2,000 gallons of water minute off the rock wall into a lake in the bottom of the quarry. It's a nice touch on an otherwise slightly better than average jungle layout.
