“Five decades of being recognized as the leading golf destination in the Caribbean is something we do not take for granted and we are humbled to celebrate our illustrious history,” says Jason Kycek, chief marketing officer. “We look forward to cherishing this moment over the next year and creating an even better experience for travelers from around the world for the next 50 years as well.”
Fulfilling their promise, beginning in Jan. 2025, Casa de Campo will begin its first major regeneration of the most celebrated golf course in the Caribbean, Teeth of the Dog. The work will be highlighted by a complete regrassing of the layout, shaping each green back to their original size and all greenside bunkers will be reshaped and expanded. Other work includes renovating the cart paths. Teeth of the Dog is currently scheduled to reopen November 2025.
Casa de Campo additionally offers an array of fully appointed villas perfect for golf groups and families. The villa options range from three to 11 bedrooms with stylish living areas, a private pool as well as endless creature comforts. From secluded Garden Villas highlighting the area’s abundant flora to the tranquil splendor of the Caribbean coast in an Oceanfront Villa, each style offers contemporary designs.
Daily breakfast, private maid service and full access to a wide range of on-site activities are additional highlights of villa stays. Non-golfer packages are also available.
The resort’s world-class Golf Learning Center is also a “must visit” when on property. Highlighted by Trackman and BODITRAK technology, it features two indoor hitting bays for rapid game improvement, year-round training, individual and group golf lessons and schools, and expert club-fitting and repair. Residing on 21 acres of “pure grass,” the PGA Tour-quality facility also showcases practice greens for honing putting, chipping and pitching skills as well as unlimited use of the pristine outdoor range for full shots. On-course instruction is also available.
