Casa de Campo is less a resort than a self-contained world — 7,000 acres encompassing championship golf, polo, an equestrian center, a marina, a full artisan village, and villa accommodations staffed to five-star hotel standards. The Teeth of the Dog golf course, designed by Pete Dye along the rocky Caribbean coastline, is not merely good by Dominican Republic standards but genuinely among the world's great golf experiences — and it's playing better than ever after a year-long restoration that re-grassed the entire course and restored Dye's original design elements, reopening for resort play in late 2025 with a grand reopening celebration in March 2026. The property attracts an international clientele of serious golfers, yacht owners, polo enthusiasts, and luxury travelers for whom normal resort amenities are insufficient.
The resort is also mid-way through a $90 million-plus multi-phase expansion: phase one delivered the Premier Club suites and an 18,000-square-foot Spa, Health & Wellness Center, with later phases adding more suites, two restaurants, a kids and teen recreation area, and new pools. That investment is part of why Caribbean Journal named Casa de Campo the best luxury resort in the Dominican Republic in June 2026. Altos de Chavon, the replica 16th-century European stone village built within the property, remains one of the Caribbean's most distinctive non-beach attractions — with galleries, restaurants, artisan workshops, and a working 5,000-seat amphitheater that hosts real concerts. The polo and equestrian programming is among the most developed of any resort in the Americas.
Casa de Campo is for travelers who find typical all-inclusives limiting rather than convenient — people who want a luxury resort organized around activities with real cultural substance. It is the obvious choice for golf trips, romantic retreats, corporate gatherings requiring serious meeting facilities, and polo enthusiasts. The price is real and high, and while expanding nonstop service into La Romana is easing the logistics, getting there still requires planning — but the product is unique in ways that a week at a Punta Cana all-inclusive simply cannot replicate.
Pros
- +Teeth of the Dog golf course is ranked #1 in the Caribbean and among the top 40 in the world — and it just completed a year-long restoration by Jerry Pate Design, reopening in late 2025 fully re-grassed with Dynasty Paspalum while preserving Pete Dye's original architecture
- +7,000-acre property scale creates a genuine resort community with its own marina, polo fields, equestrian center, and shooting range
- +Private villa accommodations with staffed service — waking up to fresh coffee and a personal housekeeper is the daily standard
- +Altos de Chavon on property is a full-scale replica 16th-century European stone village with galleries, artisan workshops, and a 5,000-seat Greek amphitheater
- +Three Pete Dye championship golf courses give serious golfers enough variety to fill a week without repeating the same round
- +New Premier Club suites from the resort's $90M+ multi-phase expansion add a modern suite product on top of the classic villa inventory
- +Marina capability accommodates yachts and provides access to deep-sea fishing, sailing charters, and water sports
- +The new 18,000-square-foot Spa, Health & Wellness Center — a centerpiece of the recent expansion — operates at a level that justifies destination spa consideration
Cons
- −La Romana location requires either a short domestic flight from Santo Domingo or a 2-hour drive from Punta Cana airport — nonstop service into La Romana is expanding (including new American Airlines flights), but connectivity is still thinner than Punta Cana's
- −Golf is expensive even by luxury resort standards — green fees at Teeth of the Dog for non-villa guests can exceed $300 per round
- −The resort is so large that transportation between areas requires golf carts or internal shuttle — guests without a vehicle spend time coordinating movement
- −All-inclusive food options are limited compared to Punta Cana's large all-inclusive properties — Casa de Campo operates as a luxury resort with multiple separate dining outlets
- −The overall luxury positioning makes this one of the most expensive resort experiences in the Dominican Republic by a significant margin
- −Polo and equestrian programs operate on their own schedules and require advance booking that fills during peak season
- −The resort caters heavily to a wealthy Latin American and European clientele — the social environment may feel exclusive in ways not all travelers find welcoming
- −Service quality can be inconsistent across the resort's many sub-facilities given the property's massive scale
