Since opening in 1971, this awesome course has been delighting the most adventurous of Caribbean visitors, but in recent years, a complete renovation of the layout has rendered it more ruthless than ever. The Teeth of the Dog can now be stretched to an astounding 7,263 yards, making it an unrelenting test of championship golf. The #1 course in the Caribbean and #29 in the world.
Dye famously stated that ‘I created eleven holes and God created seven'; to explain this, it is necessary to have some insight into the remarkable terrain that the course spans. The seven holes that track the craggy Dominican coastline represent an unforgettable golfing experience, where the margins for error are barely visible, but where the views are truly mind-blowing.
The course's name has left it with a serious reputation to uphold, but the recent renovations ensure that it does this and more. The only question that remains is, are you ready to challenge the great Caribbean monster?

The course lives up to the legends and delivers a great experience with 10+ ocean holes and beautiful views all around. Nothing like hearing the waves crashing in as you are about to drive or drop a putt. Course is undergoing a major renovation in 2025, not sure why, I would play it again tomorrow but I am sure it will come out better than before!

Teeth of the Dog is probably the most famous course and it has a real bucket list feel. If you are wayward it’s a tough old track.

Again a local ruling that you cannot play without a golf caddy on this course but at 50Us plus tip for two players it’s expensive and In my opinion not required and just a job for the locals. It might be OK for some players but not for us. It makes a four ball with caddie costing nearly 1000us a round

Fantastic holes along the sea front and the whole course is great. Caddies required. Same facilities as the Links course so not great.

The short par 3's are not easy but these and the other holes on the water's edge are really beautiful. The greens on all the courses were very fast and difficult to hold.

The course is more challenging on the ocean holes, and slows things down a bit, but overall wide fairways. You have to have a caddy on this course. If he's a good one you'll get the putts! Otherwise very hard to read because of the grain on the greens. Very fast.

The seven holes on the coastline are fantastic, amazing views again. We found most of the other holes rather bland after Corales and Punta Espada - we had obviously been spoilt ! Partenered with two very slow players from Venezuela

Beautiful scenery, 7 holes play along the sea. Accuracy needed on these holes to reach the greens but well worth playing, greens fast. Caddy compulsory.

Beautiful setting - the 8 holes on the beach are stunning. Course in excellent condition, and a fair challenge - not much rough, but lots of ocean to lose your ball. Caddies are mandated - both of us are competent golfers and felt these unnecessary - but they at least kept the course moving - but still 4-5-5 hour round. Highly recommended and a must play. Green fees were included in package and "reasonable" for resort guests, but silly prices if just visiting for the day.
