From PUJ Airport
Starting price
The route: Your private transfer from Punta Cana Airport (PUJ) to Casa de Campo is a fast and comfortable journey. Traveling from the east coast to Casa de Campo is a journey of approximately 47 miles. The journey typically takes 50 minutes under normal traffic conditions. Our driver will utilize the country’s most advanced expressway, ensuring a smooth, non-stop ride: 1. Autopista del Coral (Highway 3): The entrance: Immediately upon exiting the Punta Cana Airport terminal, the vehicle merges onto Highway 3 heading west. Highway segment: This modern 70km four-lane highway is designed for speed and safety, with a maximum limit of 110km/h. It features the latest toll technology and clear international signage. 2. The Chavón river bridge: The Landmark: About 40 minutes into the drive, you will cross this architectural marvel. The bridge offers a breathtaking view of the Chavón River valley below. 3. The Casa de Campo main entrance: The exit: Your driver will take the dedicated exit marked for “La Romana / Casa de Campo.” This ramp leads you directly to the resort’s private, high-security gate (the Main Entrance), where your vacation truly begins.
The scenery: The Gold Coast Drive: Your Scenic Transfer from PUJ to Casa de Campo Your arrival at Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) is the prelude to an extraordinary stay at the world-renowned Casa de Campo Resort & Villas. As you settle into your private Canacar.com premium vehicle, the 50-minute journey southwest is your first masterclass in Dominican elegance and natural beauty. Forget the stress of navigation; instead, watch the “Sugar Coast” unfold through your window in vivid detail: 1. The Emerald Sea of Sugar Cane As we exit the Punta Cana corridor and merge onto the Autovía del Coral, the landscape opens into a breathtaking, rhythmic expanse of emerald green. You are traveling through the historic heart of the island’s sugar industry. Miles of towering sugar cane fields sway in the tropical breeze, creating a sea of grass that stretches toward the horizon under the brilliant Caribbean sun. 2. The Architectural Marvel: The Chavón Bridge The literal and figurative “peak” of your transfer is crossing the majestic Río Chavón. As your driver glides across the high-span bridge, look to your right. You’ll see the deep, turquoise river winding through a dramatic limestone canyon draped in prehistoric jungle. This view is so spectacular it served as the backdrop for Hollywood blockbusters like Apocalypse Now. It’s a moment of pure, cinematic awe just minutes before you reach the resort gates. 3. The Vibrant Pulse of La Romana As we approach the outskirts of La Romana, the scenery takes on a more colorful, local rhythm. You’ll catch glimpses of the bustling town life, traditional Dominican architecture, and the towering chimneys of the Central Romana mill. This contrast between the wild canyon and the industrious city provides an authentic look at the “Real DR” before you enter the serene, private enclave of the resort. 4. Entering the Mediterranean of the Caribbean The final turn leads you into the manicured perfection of the Casa de Campo estate. The wilder roadside flora transitions into world-class landscaping. As you pass through the security gates, the air feels more refined—scented with sea salt and blooming hibiscus. You’ll catch glimpses of the legendary “Teeth of the Dog” golf course and the rolling hills that lead toward the Altos de Chavón village, a stunning 16th-century Mediterranean replica perched above the river.

WhatsAppGuides, tips and everything you need to know to make the most of your stay in Casa de Campo.
1. The “Big Three”: what you can’t miss
World-Class Golf
Casa de Campo is home to three Pete Dye-designed courses, including the legendary Teeth of the Dog. Ranked as the #1 course in the Caribbean, it features seven holes that play right along the rugged coral edges of the Caribbean Sea.
Pro Tip: Book your tee times months in advance, especially during the winter season (December–April).
Altos de Chavón
A stunning replica of a 16th-century Mediterranean village, perched high above the Chavón River. It features an amphitheater where icons like Frank Sinatra and Elton John have performed, as well as art galleries, boutiques, and fine dining.
The Marina
Designed to resemble the glamorous harbors of the Italian Riviera, the Marina is the heart of the resort’s social life. It’s where you’ll find luxury yachts, designer shopping, and some of the best Italian and seafood restaurants in the country.
2. Sun & water: expert tips for the american traveler
At Casa de Campo, life revolves around the outdoors. Whether you’re on the fairways or the Caribbean Sea, the tropical elements require a sophisticated approach to stay comfortable.
Sun safety tips
The golf course glow: On the golf course, you are exposed for 4+ hours. The reflection of the sun off the white sand traps and the water hazards can lead to a “sneaky” burn. Use a high-SPF (50+) clear spray that won’t make your hands greasy—essential for keeping your grip on the club!
The minitas beach UV factor: Minitas Beach is beautiful, but the white sand acts like a mirror. Apply sunscreen to the areas most people forget: your ears, the tops of your feet, and your scalp (if you aren’t wearing a hat).
Hydration beyond the “Santo Libre”: It’s tempting to enjoy the local cocktails, but the humidity in La Romana is intense. For every drink you have, consume 12 ounces of bottled water. Your Canacar driver can always stop so you can stock your villa with premium bottled water before you settle in.
Peak hour strategy: The sun is most aggressive between 11:00 AM and 3:30 PM. This is the perfect time to explore the indoor galleries of Altos de Chavón or enjoy a long, shaded lunch at the Beach Club.
Aquatic activity tips
Private yacht charters to Palmilla: The ultimate Casa de Campo experience is chartering a yacht to Palmilla, a natural sandbar in the middle of the ocean. The water is waist-deep and crystal clear.
Starfish protocol: You will see giant starfish at Palmilla. Never lift them out of the water. They breathe through the water; taking them out for a “selfie” can be fatal for them. Keep them submerged for your photos!
Minitas beach snorkeling: The resort has a wonderful snorkeling area. If you aren’t a strong swimmer, use the complimentary life vests. The reef is home to vibrant parrotfish and sergeant majors.
Sea urchin awareness: While the main swimming areas are cleared, if you explore the rocky edges of the coast near the villas, wear water shoes. The coral rocks can be sharp, and sea urchins are common in the crevices.
