The Lakes opened at Barcelo Bavaro Beach Resort in 1991. Dominican Republic tourism authorities identify it as the first golf course established in the Punta Cana area. Juan Manuel Gordillo produced the original design.
The course uses relatively flat terrain within mangrove vegetation, with water and bunkering providing much of the strategic definition.
P.B. Dye comprehensively redesigned the course in 2010. The resulting layout retained the original identity but increased strategic challenge, with Dye-style features including railroad-tie elements appearing in parts of the course.
The Lakes remains an 18-hole, par-72 resort course measuring 6,655 yards, with a published rating of 72.1 and slope of 135.
