Fly from Montreal (YUL) to Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) in approximately 4.5 hours nonstop. Punta Cana is one of the most-connected airports in the Caribbean, and nonstop service from Montreal runs frequently through the December-to-April winter season.
Villa Espada is a 6- or 8-bedroom private estate on Fairway 5 of Punta Espada Golf Course — ranked #1 in the Caribbean and Mexico by GolfWeek for eight consecutive years. Your full staff is waiting: private chef, personal butler, daily maid service, and two six-person golf carts. The first tee is a short walk from your villa door.
Montreal has a passionate golf community, but the Quebec season is one of the shortest in North America — courses are typically open only from May through October. That long winter is exactly why so many Montreal golfers head south for warm-weather rounds.
At about 4.5 hours nonstop, Cap Cana is one of the most accessible quality golf destinations from Montreal — and one of the few where you can play championship oceanfront golf without a connection. The winter timing lines up perfectly with the Dominican dry season.
Home courses for Montreal golfers include Royal Montreal, Laval-sur-le-Lac, and Le Mirage — excellent layouts, but closed half the year, and none with 8 holes directly on the Caribbean Sea carrying Jack Nicklaus's signature.
Punta Espada's 8 oceanfront holes play directly above and alongside the Caribbean. The trade winds shift every hole, and the par-3s over open sea are among the most photographed tee shots in golf. Because Villa Espada sits inside the Cap Cana resort with walking access to the first tee, you experience the course the way members do — not as a hotel guest who booked a tee time.
4 rounds across 3 world-ranked courses. Villa Espada staff handle every tee time, transfer, and caddie arrangement. You just play golf.
Montreal Travellers — whether a golf foursome, a multi-generational family, or a corporate group — value the combination of a straightforward journey and a fully staffed private estate. Villa Espada's 6- or 8-bedroom capacity and Punta Espada access make it a natural Caribbean escape.
Two foursomes, 6 or 8 bedrooms, member-guest tee times, golf carts at the door, concierge booking for a Teeth of the Dog day trip.
Golf Packages →Executive golf outings, client entertainment, and leadership events with the privacy, exclusivity, and golf access private groups look for — all under one roof.
Corporate Packages →6 or 8 bedrooms, two private pools, chef service — the golfers play while the rest of the family enjoys one of the Caribbean's safest gated resort communities.
Family Packages →While the golfers in your group are playing Punta Espada or Las Iguanas, non-golfers have a full day of activities within Cap Cana's 30,000-acre gated resort community. Juanillo Beach — consistently ranked among the best beaches in the Dominican Republic — is a short golf cart ride from Villa Espada. El Dorado Park is a few minutes away, and Scape Park offers zip lines, cenotes, and cave exploration for the adventurous.
The Cap Cana Marina features deep-sea fishing charters, waterfront restaurants, and boutique shopping. Your private chef prepares breakfast, lunch, and dinner at the villa using locally sourced ingredients, and your personal butler coordinates every detail — from restaurant reservations to excursion bookings to spa appointments. For groups travelling with families, the combination of world-class golf and resort-quality amenities makes Cap Cana the rare Caribbean destination where everyone in the group has an exceptional experience.
Nonstop flights from Montreal (YUL) to Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) take about 4.5 hours. Punta Cana is one of the most-connected airports in the Caribbean, with frequent nonstop and connecting service from Montreal, especially during the December-to-April winter season.
The Dominican Republic runs on Atlantic Standard Time and does not observe daylight saving. Cap Cana is one hour ahead of Montreal in winter and the same time as Montreal in summer, so there is little to no jet lag either way.
Villa Espada is about 15 to 20 minutes from the PUJ airport gate and roughly 25 to 35 minutes door-to-door. A private airport transfer is included with every stay, so your driver meets your flight and brings you straight to the villa.
