Golf at Cocotal Golf by Meliá

From Tee to Green, Your Journey Begins Here

As the signature golf course by Meliá in Punta Cana, Cocotal Golf by Meliá offers a 27-hole championship layout shaped by strategic design and natural surroundings. Created by six-time Spanish Champion Pepe Gancedo, known as the “Picasso of golf course design,” the course features three distinct nine-hole loops that provide flexibility and variety across rounds.

Framed by mature coconut palms and interlaced with lakes, the routing rewards precision and thoughtful course management. The fairways are designed to be playable while favoring strategic positioning, and water hazards and bunkers challenge decision-making without overwhelming players. Bermuda grass ensures reliable year-round conditions, with greens that roll cleanly and consistently.

With five tee sets ranging from 5,135 to 7,289 yards, the course accommodates both relaxed resort golfers and experienced players seeking a more technical round. Its flow and relatively flat terrain support a comfortable pace of play.

Located in the heart of Bávaro, Cocotal Golf sits directly across from the Meliá Hotels International resort enclave, including Paradisus Palma Real, Paradisus Grand Cana All Suites, Meliá Caribe Beach, Meliá Punta Cana Beach, and ZEL Punta Cana, providing seamless access for resort guests. Guests staying at these hotels receive exclusive benefits, including 50% off green fees, complimentary transportation, and a shared golf cart with drinks included during the round.

Practice amenities include a driving range, short game area, and putting green, complemented by group clinics for beginners and private instruction. The experience extends beyond the course with the addition of a fitness center, a newly opened pro shop, and a lounge, positioning Cocotal as a more complete golf and leisure destination. After the round, the Hoyo 10 & 9 Restaurant & Bar offers a relaxed terrace overlooking the course—an ideal setting to unwind.
