The Piñero Group is a reference in the tourism sector with a very strong presence in the Caribbean. One more dream of the well-remembered Don Pablo Piñero to add to the group’s companies was the creation of residential developments in which golf was to play an essential role.
To the development of the Riviera Maya Residential in Mexico, with the Robert Trent Jones Junior designed course (chosen as the best resort in 2017 in Mexico and Central America by Golf Digest magazine), was added the Playa Nueva Romana Residential, with a golf offer with the same level of quality, in the east of the Dominican Republic. From the same team of Robert Trent Jones Junior and after his work in the design and construction of the Riviera Maya course, Jack Lund was the one who designed and directed the construction of La Romana Golf Club. As a consequence of the concept used in this marvelous course, we find an area of the course in which the design corresponds to a park land, another part is links type and another is a cliff top course.
In Residencial Playa Nueva Romana, in addition to two five-star hotels, one of them with the Luxury seal and only for adults, a private beach with white sand surrounded by coconut trees for two kilometers, a Beach Club, sports courts and very close to a marina from which you can enjoy sailing and the excellent fishing in the area, we can enjoy two golf courses of exceptional quality.
The Dominican Republic is a mature golf destination of enormous quality. The mild warm climate is also present in its people, which is the island’s greatest asset. A round of golf with the attention of a caddy on a course of excellent design and condition is a must experience for every golfer. Many who try it will consider investing in a sure value so that the experience can be repeated as many times as they wish.
La Romana Golf Club is a fantastic exponent of top-level golf in the Dominican Republic. With generous fairways that invite you to stretch out with the driver, wide and moving greens, but ‘human’ and five tee platforms for players of all levels to choose from, it is a course that is short to play and is enjoyed from the first hole. In addition to all this, it belongs to the select club of ‘ocean’ courses, in which, resembling Pebble Beach, in the Dominican Republic we find Teeth of the Dog, Punta Espada, Corales, La Cana and Playa Grande. La Romana Golf Club has no less than four of its greens bathed by the Caribbean Sea. The experience of playing these holes over the cliff is memorable (especially if it happens to be one of those days when the god Aeolus decides to make his presence felt).
In the same residential area you can enjoy an exceptional 9-hole par 3 course whose greens could compete with those of any ‘big’ course in Spain. It is the ideal complement for those who have decided to fall in love with the Caribbean and live seasons or the whole year in paradise. The academy directed by Toni Planells, with its “Natural Golf Guidance” method, completes the first class golf offer.
“We invite you to visit us and enjoy this great experience!”, says the director of La Romana Golf Club, Luis Navarro.
