One of the best in the region

This course will let you see the best of playing inland and right on the edge of the island, where it meets the sea. It is a beautiful place, well taken care of. Be mindful of really fast greens that usually run towards the water on the seaside holes.

You will have very few tree obstacles while trying to get to the greens, the biggest problem I came across was trying to get my ball to stay on the green once I got it there. It will challenge your abilities and you'll definitely enjoy playing it.

Great for a weekend round

This course plays longer than the golf courses I have played before. I found myself using my long irons and fairways a lot more while playing this course.

It is overall a good course and will reward long-hitting players. It was very interesting to see a par 3 with two greens though I was told by the caddie they no longer use the left green.

Great Course

The Links proved to be challenging for me, an 18HCP weekend golfer. Although the course does not require the player to be very precise on every golf shot, strong winds made me struggle a lot with distance. The greens made me think before hitting each putt. Playing this course will be a great experience for anyone who is playing this game just for fun.

MY favourite course in the DR

This is a long, beautiful course. This course proved to be quite challenging for me. For someone with my handicap, the greens were very difficult, but I managed to hole a few putts for birdie.

They keep the course in great conditions and you rarely see someone else playing it, even if it is at full capacity. I loved playing it and recommend it to anyone.

Walked

Not a real golf experience.

Isabel Villas will provide only 9 par 3 holes that you have to walk to play. It is not a real golf experience at all, though it might serve good as a first on-course practice for new players who want to know how it feels to play a few holes before going out and playing 18-hole courses.

Great for beginners.

Staff friendliness and how easy it is to play this course make it a great place to start learning how to play in a real environment.
