I know of no other resort that will Altos de Chavonguarantee you a competitive tennis game at any time of the day or night on any day of the year on the 13 clay courts of the hilltop La Terrazza Tennis Center. Casa de Campo can do that because tennis director Emilio Vasquez has assembled a very large tennis staff—more than 70 counting the landscape gardeners and maintenance crew—among them 9 teaching pros, 16 aspiring instructors, who are available as hitting partners whenever another guest cannot be found, and 32 ball boys, usually drawn from the local junior program.

The resort sprawls over 7,000 acres on the southern coast of the Dominican Republic, about 70 miles east of Santo Domingo. It contains an astonishing array of recreation, including a private beach, three 18-hole Pete Dye golf courses, a fitness center and equestrian and polo grounds. Accommodations consist of some 450 spacious rooms and two-to-four-bedroom villas. Its most unusual feature, however, is Altos de Chavon, an artist's colony built to resemble a medieval stone village, with working studios, an amphitheater for occasional concerts and four appealing restaurants.

Your Call

Here's what others have had to say about Casa de Campo.

  • 4-Ball Rating "Lots of tennis courts with views of the ocean. Great hitters for very reasonable rates and ballboys who pick up every ball so you never have to! Game arranging, instruction, etc. Wonderful package deals that include a villa, maid all day who cooks breakfast, all meals at various hotel and marina restaurants, all beverages (including wine) use of tennis courts and 3 golf courses. Hotel will soon be replaced by 4 Seasons Hotel."—P.M., Adv., April 2008

Other Recreation

Beach. The resort has that rarest of amenities: a private beach, tucked into a cove that makes it inaccessible to non-guests unless they arrive by boat.

Golf Courses. The resort has three 18-hole Pete Dye golf courses, chief among them "Teeth of the Dog," the fabled links that often tops the charts of Caribbean golf courses.
