Info about immediate beach and golf

I am booked at this property for 5 nights mid January 2013. My family has vacationed at the Punta Cana Resort and Club each year for the last 5 years which is adjacent to this hotel. I've played golf at both La Cana (27 holes) and Corales. This area is a spectacular hidden gem in terms of beach, golf, and amenities at the Resort and Club. I would highly recommend playing golf at these courses and also using the pool and bar at the La Cana golf clubhouse which has a spectacular view and happy hour. There is also a beach bar / restaurant on Playa Blanca that is very nice for relaxing on the beach / renting paddle boards / and drinking Presidente. The beach is sweet, and the access from the airport is unmatched. I know what people always say about Punta Cana, I get it, I stayed at one of those places 10 years ago. This area in and around the Punta Cana Resort and Club is very different and will not dissapoint. The three men that created this area and own the airport will make sure this Westin delivers. For a 4 or 5 night vacation this spot is very very hard to beat.
