Punta Espada Golf Club

I just finished my fourth round this week at Punta Espada (12/14–12/19/25), and WOW! What an extraordinary course. This place is a slice of heaven carved directly into the Dominican shoreline. My senses were completely saturated; words barely do justice to the sights, sounds, and salt-tinged ocean mist drifting through the air as waves crash against the rocks. The staff were consistently warm, attentive, and genuinely accommodating, graciously responding to every request. I was also fortunate to be paired with my caddie, Jonathan, for all four rounds. He struck the perfect balance of professionalism, friendliness, and good humor. His love for the game was evident, and he celebrated my handful of birdies right alongside me. Don’t think twice about treating yourself to at least one round at this gem. Punta Espada isn’t just a golf course… it’s a golf experience.

Played Punta Espada in Jan 2024. What a beautiful course, you have to tee off up top on hole #1 just for the view even if you're a higher handicap. As well as from behind the water on hole 17. It was an amazing experience for my 50th, and I was also paired with AJ from New York who was amazing to play alongside. Can't remember the name of our caddy but he was amazing as well. The only downside would be the cost, being from Canada it was pricy, but it is an amazing course.

It is a great golf course. Many enthusiastic golf players dream to play this course. It is a little bit expensive, but it worth playing here. Every single hole is very scenic. Caddies are well trained and know how to play the holes. Do not forget to pay tips to them in cash after your play, 25-40 tips are expected.

Absolutely lovely golf course with amazing views.

The most beautiful golf course I’ve had the chance to play. Very stunning vistas. Pricey but well worth the greens fees amount. The greens have a lot of contours that I missed, so having the caddy (Tom) was a big help. Practice area is 1st class…locker rooms are amazing…course conditions were fantastic for July 2024. The shuttle pick up was on time and fast from Zilara/Ziva resort.

One of the most beautiful Golf courses I've ever been on

What an incredible place!!! A short ride from our resort ( Secrets Cap Cana ) and we were immediately greeted by their welcoming staff. The pro shop was well stocked. The course had a large practice facility. You can practice chipping, putting and the driving range allowed you to hit every club in the bag. The facility offered modern ammenities. Clean locker rooms and showers. The beverage cart was present almost every 3 -4 holes. The cold towel after the round was much appreciated. Our caddie ( a must specially for first timers ) - Jorge was experienced and very knowledgeable. A Jack Nicklaus design. The course offers interesting challenges and incredible views. The signature par 3, 200 yds (from the gold tees) over the water is worth a few photos. Now I completely understand why it was ranked #35 in the world (Golf Digest). Can’t wait to come back!!!

This is easily the best course I have ever played. It is a natural wonder how they keep it so well groomed despite how hot it is! The views are amazing. The course can be challenging on some holes however it’s a good balance. The caddies are excellent and very attentive. HIGHLY recommend!
