Challenging round of golf
Reviewed October 18, 2023
We played the course on October 17th, 2023.
The name of the course is “THE LAKES Barcelo Golf Course”. Here, the name speaks for itself. A total of 5 tee colors on the course. We paid €180 for 2 players 18 holes with an electric car. The course is quite challenging due to the many hills and bunkers. The sand in the bunkers is sometimes bone hard and difficult to play on. 3 island holes demand precise shots.
The service was ok. Water, soft drinks and were included and offered along the way.
We would highly recommend the place.

Could be better
Reviewed October 26, 2022
We played the course on October 26th, 2022. We had to find out: beautiful fairways, undulating and beautiful greens, interesting holes.
Unfortunately, the same applies here as to many places in Punta Cana: avoid bunkers because they are unplayable (i.e. without playing sand) Driving range: discarded balls, which are hardly white anymore.
Marshall on the course, which would explain golf etiquette to dawdling tourists equipped with a jukebox: none.
It's a shame about the course, which is otherwise beautifully embedded in the landscape and has several interesting island greens.

No service but nice place
Reviewed August 29, 2022
Played on 08/15/2022. After a nice reception in the pro shop, but no further service. We had to carry our bag ourselves through the whole house to the Caddymaster. Drinks were only available on request. The Range was a disastrous field.
So we went into the place without much expectation and were pleasantly surprised.
The care cannot be compared with the other places in the area, but the place is very nicely laid out and can be played very well.

Dear Customer,
We apologize for the inconvenience.
I inform you that we finished the maintenance of the golf course in the month of July, but the summer is very strong and the dry season is affecting us since we have problems with the irrigation pump.
In regards to carrying the clubs to the caddymaster, the girl from the golf shop forgot to call the starter to pick them up.
Drinks must be required.

Interesting place with diverse tropical flora and fauna
Reviewed January 8, 2022
My wife and I played Barcelo on December 23,2021. The price of around € 80 per person is absolutely OK despite the poor service, as the layout and the vegetation are just great.
While the reception at the clubhouse (unfriendly staff) and carrying the bag from the drop-off point to the caddy had clouded the anticipation a bit, the round of golf turned the whole thing back into pure joy!
The name "Lake Course" lives up to the course, a "clean" and not too risky game is a prerequisite in view of the water at many holes if you want to come back to the clubhouse with enough balls!
We hardly met any other players on the pitch, but we did meet cranes, peacocks and even flamingos! The place is definitely worth a visit!

Impeccable Place
Reviewed January 15, 2021
Today I played the course from the farthest tees, 6,055 m long and a lot of water in front of you, that's why it is called "The Lakes"!
Take a lot of balls with you, as you need quite a length from the tees across the water.
The wonderful par 3s are beautifully laid out, but again surrounded by a lot of water.
Much easier to play from yellow as it is only 5,670 m long.
Fairways, tee boxes, greens well maintained, bunkers could be better.
Greens undulating quickly and well, fairways really interesting and tricky.
Whole area very good, secretariat nice and friendly!

Good but not great
Reviewed January 25, 2016
I played the course 2014th The facility is well maintained and offers a great clubhouse and everything you'd expect from a modern facility. Also, the hotel would offer an ideal base for a golfing holiday.
The square itself is challenging and especially the par 3 are spectacular. Grooming is 1a, the only point deduction results from the fact that the place is not on the coast. Compared to Punta Espada and Teeth of the Dog, he drops something.

Wind and Sun

I liked, well maintained, great greens, very well organized, a bit windy at any time, but it has hardly affected my game, have played 3 times and the price performance ratio fits here.
Recommended!
