La Estancia Resort

La Romana, Dominican Republic

Overview

Located on the other side of the Chavon River from Dye Fore at Casa de Campo, La Estancia possesses many of the same elements that make both courses adventurous. That should be no surprise as the architect, P.B. Dye, was cooking with the usual shopping list of Dye family ingredients, including a par-4 18th that curves around a lake in nearly the exact form as at TPC Sawgrass. But the site also offered plenty of unique strategic opportunities, and Dye took advantage of a long precipice on the interior side of the property to serve up some tasty drives that sail across ravines. The green at the superb par-5 12th hangs out over the vertiginous edge of forest and seems to have been embedded with a genetic code taken directly from the second or 16th holes at Whistling Straits.
