After one round, avid enthusiast and casual player alike will understand why Golf Magazine has compared La Cana to Pebble Beach and declared it the “number one course in the Caribbean.” Designed by P. B. Dye, La Cana boasts fourteen ocean-view holes with four playing right on the water’s edge, and its state-of-the-art Seashore Paspalum grass allows for maintenance with minimal environmental impact. No serious player can take a golf vacation to the Caribbean without testing his or her chops on this stand-out course. Now offering new Enhancement Packages with its sister course, Corales, no serious golf can come to the Dominican Republic without playing a round on these world-class courses. « less

I truly enjoyed playing La Cana Golf Course within the Punta Cana Hotel and Resort. They are currently redoing the range with a new grass and it looks amazing. Actually, the whole area looks great as they are adding two more golf courses. As for La Cana, Holes 17 and 18 remind me of Pebble Beach, with a lot more... more

I played La Cana in early January, and it was a lot of fun. The course is both scenic and challenging. I wouldn't say that this is my favorite course, but it was enjoyable. The service side could use some work, especially regarding the caddies. Both days I played, the caddies seemed completely disinterested, even sitting and chatting on their... more

Being a 'non-golfer' I find it difficult to write a review on a golf course. I cannot tell you how the wind makes the ball react, how quick the greens are or how to rate the difficulty of the course. What I CAN tell you is simply... La Cana Golf Course is gorgeous. I being the 'non-golfer' of a group... more

our group has been to this course as annual visit last four years and we all enjoyed except green fee, overpriced specially during this world wide recession, they would not negotiate for our group(about 30 golfers.), eventually there will be less golfers with empty course. the course design layout is very nice and one hole with island green. my wife... more

This golf course was absolutely amazing. This was the first time I have played golf in three trips to the Dominican Republic, and I was skeptical at first because of the high cost. However, the people at La Cana pull off a challenging, well-kept, and extremely enjoyable round of golf. Of course the best part was the holes along the... more

La Cana is a wonderfull test of golf for all standard of golfers. It's a great layout and with the choice of tees offers something for everyone. I have played it many times now on layovers in Punta Cana and cant recommend it enough. I play off 10 and have played from all the tees. It's long from the back.....beware!!... more

My husband & I recently vacationed in Punta Cana. La Cana Golf Course was definitely one of the highlights of our vacation. It is truly a beautiful course. My husband is a much better golfer than me, but we both enjoyed the some time challanging course. We did have a caddie (not expensive) and he was very helpful. We will... more

Golfers beware!!! Proper shirts are required. Not just shirts with collars but you must have a knit polo shirt. I had a nice button up shirt and was told when I was picked up that I would need to change it. A couple of fellows that I met at the golf course had to buy shirts there. Also book direct... more
