Casa de Campo, Dominican Republic

Casa de Campo (Spanish for "Country House") is a Ponderosa-style tropical seaside residential community in La Romana on the southeast coast of the Dominican Republic.

The name is Spanish for "Country House," and it was originally a retreat for Charles Bluhdorn, who built his estate during the 1970s on Gulf and Western's sugar mill property, Central Romana.

"Villas con solar propio" have ownership of an entire area, which includes parking lots and the landscape.

In 2010, the Casa de Campo Marina played host to the Rolex Farr 40 sailing cup.
