The Caribbean’s New Must-Visit Luxury Hotel Is in the Dominican Republic

You’re a stone’s throw from the number one golf course in the Caribbean, a short stroll from the most state-of-the-art spa in the region. A cart ride from a private beach club.

And even with all of the fantastic amenities here, from the golf to the equestrian club to the Minitas Beach Club, the suites here make a compelling case to stay in your room.

This is the new Premier Club at Casa de Campo in the Dominican Republic, home to some of the most stunning hotel rooms in the Caribbean, a collection of 58 junior suites and suites with everything from 1,000-thread-count Egyptian cotton linens to Kohler-accessory bathrooms and premium wet bars (and an electric golf cart with every suite to explore the property).

There are other thoughtful details, too: electric shades on the windows; custom pillow menus and aromatherapy menus; free Wi-Fi; a fantastic club lounge in the lobby with drinks and small bites all day long.

The suites include a three-bedroom Presidential Suite that comes with its own office, kitchen and family room — that has hosted the likes of Martha Stewart and Michael Buble.

It’s a resort-within-a-resort concept that has added a new crown jewel to Casa de Campo, a resort that’s long been the number one place to stay in the Dominican Republic.

The Premier Club is set just across from the world-renowned, Pete Dye-designed Teeth of the Dog golf course, with views of another Dye-designed course, The Links.

Inside the presidential suite’s massive bathroom.

And then there is Casa de Campo’s spectacular new spa, an 18,000-square-foot facility that transports you to another world the moment you walk in. There’s everything here, from cleverly-designed relaxation areas to a jaw-dropping “hydrothermal” circuit and an outdoor pool.

It all makes the Premier Club the unique luxury resort that tailors itself perfectly to every kind of vacation.

Looking for a golf getaway? This is a world-class luxury golf resort, with access to the three Pete Dye-designed golf courses, two just footsteps from your suite.

The Dye Fore golf course is set near the Altos de Chavon village, high above the Chavon river.

A wellness vacation? Walk over to the spa every day and take a journey through a circuit of high-tech, transformational treatments. (Combine the two and you have the perfect couples’ retreat, naturally).

A family trip? From the kids club to the equestrian offerings to the unrivaled charm of the Altos de Charon village, you’ll never run out of activities.

The Premier Club lobby has a dedicated lounge with all-day canapes.

Even better? It’s about to get a whole lot easier to visit this resort, with nonstop service between Miami and La Romana’s airport (just a golf cart ride away from the hotel) set to launch on Dec. 5.

The 2024 calendar is filled with exciting events at Casa de Campo, including those celebrating the resort’s big upcoming birthday. “We have an exciting year planned ahead to help celebrate our Golden Anniversary, including our 2ndannual Food & Wine Festival and our 50th anniversary concert and celebrity golf tournament kickoff weekend this coming October 24-27,” said Jason Kycek, senior vice president at Casa de Campo.

All of these amenities are part of the reason why travelers have been coming to the La Romana resort for nearly 50 years.

“This year marks Casa de Campo’s 50th anniversary and we are excited to share our new Spa & Wellness Center and the new Premier Club & Suites with our guests and community and our commitment to taking the property to new heights for generations to come,” Kycek said.

Half a century later, Casa de Campo is better than ever.
