The Hard Rock Golf Club at Cana Bay is situated along the white sand shores of the stunning mangrove-lined Macao Beach, conveniently located near the Punta Cana International Airport. Designed by Jack Nicklaus, the golf course is yet another outstanding design in his repertoire. Nicklaus carefully preserved the rich natural surroundings to ensure that the beauty of the Dominican landscape was kept at the forefront. The layout's rolling fairways and greens weave through native flora and fauna, providing golfers with a truly unique round in a tropical setting. There are expansive lakes that come into play on several holes as well as numerous strategically placed bunkers throughout.

Good deal for the value (paid $60 GolfNow deal)

GolfNow had a great Hot Deal special of $58, compared to my resort booking price of $250. The staff was very polite and made for a good round of good. The course layout was ok, wide fairways and nice greens. Not an ocean view, so not many water holes. However, much jungle off the fairway. So take so extra golfballs. I would definitely play it again on a Hot Deal special.

Great time….

Staff and facilities were top notch. Good times on the course and the 19th hole was well stocked. I highly recommend this facility. We did not stay at the resort but will look into on our next trip.

Great value (hot deal), great staff, enjoyable course

The staff at Hard Rock do an excellent job of welcoming you and making sure you enjoy your day. Cons: The golf carts do not have GPS so bring your scope. The driving range had very few balls available and they were rough…but the pitching and putting areas were nice, manicured, and easy to access. No real restaurant on site, but drinks and snacks were available.

Pros: terrific staff. Course condition in great shape especially for a resort course. Pace of play was awesome because we came as a twosome and we were started off the back to avoid a traffic jam and we breezed through the round. Beverages were included!!! And the beverage cart was timely and attentive.

We’ll be back!

Way better than I remembered

Course has been improved and maintained much better than when I played it 20 years ago. Anjulating greens and pin placements added to the challenge. Another great day on the course.
