One of two courses located within the Catalonia Bávaro Resort in Punta Cana, Alberto Sola designed the Cabeza de Toro Golf Club as a challenging, nine-hole executive course surrounded by swaying palm trees and five lakes for incomparable views.
The Pete Dye-designed La Cana Golf Club was established in 2001, and is a 27-hole course consisting of three nines, with the latest nine-hole Hacienda added in 2012. The Tortuga and Arrecife nines hug stunning Caribbean scenery with 14 ocean-view holes, and four memorable ones that play right on the beach. Arrecife’s nine culminates in two spectacular fairways that skirt the azure waters and greens where you feel you could reach out and touch the sea. Hacienda is both challenging and beautiful in its design as it takes the golfer inland through dense, colorful tropical vegetation. La Cana’s well-guarded putting surfaces provide a stern test for even the lowest handicappers. The course’s par-3 holes are outstanding–the 200-yard third’s narrow green is bordered front and left by a lake; the fifth is La Cana’s first hole to play aside the beach; and the 239-yard 14th’s long, multi-tiered putting surface is hidden by tall dunes, reminiscent of Irish links. La Cana Golf Club is a perfect course for players of all skill levels.
