Dominican Republic

Where else can you find such magnificent beaches with such amazing golf courses? With departures from Toronto, Vancouver and many airports in the United States, You can stay in wonderful 4* or 5* hotels and enjoy all the food and drink you can manage. Or choose some of the finest beach side hotels in the world, such as the Sanctuary Cap Cana, or Tortuga Bay.

In May 2009, Jenahura staff visited the outstanding new golf courses of the Punta Cana region, in the eastern part of the Republica Dominicana. Justifiably, the most famous course in the Dominican is now Punta Espada, as seen recently on TV during the PGA Champions Tour event. This is Jack Nicklaus design at his very, very best, crafting a seaside masterpiece with hole after hole of genius. Whilst this might sound like a little too much adulation, it is worth pointing out that we have never been huge fans of the Nicklaus design team. You can read a full review, and see pictures below.

Possibly the best thing about the Dominican Republic are its cheerful, industrious and proud people. This makes your golf holiday a great experience, particularly at the many all-inclusive hotels which we visited and reviewed. Don't expect "servicio rapido", but everything is delivered with a smile and often, a sense of humour.

Our favourite ocean side hotels have been carefully selected after thorough site visits. We tell you the inside information to get the most out of your holiday, and which hotels make the grade, with a venue for almost every budget.
