Casa de Campo® Resort in La Romana, Dominican Republic is one of the Caribbean’s most complete luxury destinations. Beyond the villas themselves, the resort offers a remarkable range of activities — from golf on one of the world’s best courses to clay shooting, equestrian trails, tennis, and a full-service marina. Here’s what guests can expect
Most visitors underestimate how much their experience depends on where they stay. Choosing the right location inside the resort will shape everything—from beach access to dining and daily logistics.
Here’s a breakdown of exactly where to stay in Casa de Campo® depending on your travel style.
Golf — Teeth of the Dog & Dye Fore
Casa de Campo® is synonymous with golf. The resort is home to three Pete Dye-designed courses, with Teeth of the Dog® consistently ranked as the best golf course in the Caribbean. Seven of its 18 holes run directly along the Caribbean Sea, bordered by the dramatic coral formations that gave the course its name. Dye Fore offers equally spectacular views over the Chavón River gorge. Guests staying in a Casa de Campo® villa have access to all three courses, with tee times arranged through the resort pro shop.
Minitas Beach
Minitas Beach is the resort’s private beach on the Caribbean Sea — calm, clear water with full facilities including beach chairs, watersports rentals, and food and beverage service. It’s a short golf cart ride from most villa areas and is included in resort access for all villa guests. Beachfront and oceanfront villas offer the most direct access.
Casa de Campo Shooting Center
The Casa de Campo® Shooting Center is one of the top sporting clay facilities in the world, with over 110 stands across a variety of courses. It welcomes shooters of all levels — from first-timers to competitive professionals — with instruction, equipment rental, and guided experiences available. Dove and pigeon hunting excursions can also be arranged through the resort.
Tennis at the Racquet Center
The Casa de Campo® Racquet Center has 13 clay courts plus hard courts, a pro shop, and resident tennis professionals offering lessons and clinics. It’s open to all resort guests and is a popular option for families and groups looking for structured activity during their stay.
Equestrian Center
The Casa de Campo® Equestrian Center is one of the finest in the Caribbean, with trail rides through the resort’s tropical grounds, polo matches on weekends, and riding lessons for all ages. The polo fields are active throughout the season and make for a memorable spectator experience even for non-riders.
Altos de Chavón
Perched above the Chavón River gorge 10 minutes from the main resort, Altos de Chavón is a hand-built replica 16th-century Mediterranean village. It houses art galleries, boutiques, restaurants, and a 5,000-seat amphitheater that has hosted concerts by major international artists. The village is free to explore and is a highlight of any stay at Casa de Campo.
Marina Casa de Campo
The Marina Casa de Campo® is a full-service, award-winning marina with capacity for superyachts and sport-fishing vessels. The marina village has restaurants, bars, and boutiques along the waterfront. Day trips, deep-sea fishing charters, and boat excursions to Catalina Island can be booked through the marina.
The Best Way to Experience It All
The best base for exploring everything Casa de Campo® has to offer is a private villa. Unlike hotel rooms, villas come with dedicated staff, a private pool, and a golf cart — making it easy to move around the resort on your own schedule. Caribbean Paradise Homes manages over 70 exclusive villas at Casa de Campo®, ranging from intimate golf-view retreats to large estate homes ideal for groups and families.
