La Romana, Dominican Republic Yes, Punta Cana is the best-known hotspot in the Dominican Republic; but La Romana on the southern cost of the country is home to the country’s greatest resort. This is Casa de Campo, the 7,000-acre property that’s home to a hotel, luxury villas and a three-course golf complex that includes the world-renowned Teeth of the Dog by Pete Dye. But that’s really just the beginning: there’s a a marina, a beach club, and the breathtaking replica 16th-century Mediterranean village called Altos de Chavon. It’s been the hottest place to stay in the Dominican Republic for the last two years, meaning September is a great time to find a stay.
