Good questions
The questions every group asks first.
The short version of how an Arrive Golf trip works. If your question is not here, just ask us.
- What exactly does Arrive Golf do?
- We plan and run the entire trip for your group. The courses, the tee times, the rooms, the transfers, the dining, and a concierge on the ground. You bring the people. We handle everything else.
- How big are the groups?
- Private groups of sixteen to twenty golfers, built around your group. Your group leader decides who joins, so it's your trip, not a mixed tour.
- Where do the trips go?
- Punta Cana and Cap Cana in the Dominican Republic, playing courses like Punta Espada, Corales, and La Cana.
- How does payment work?
- Each golfer reserves and pays for their own spot directly. A deposit holds the spot, and the balance is due before the trip. The organizer never fronts money or chases anyone.
- What does the price include?
- One price per golfer covers the rounds, the resort rooms, the transfers, and the dining. Airfare, travel insurance, and personal expenses are the only things left out. Nothing waits for you at the resort desk, and there are no resort fees or surprises on top.
- Why not just book it ourselves?
- You could. But twenty rounds, twenty rooms, transfers, and dinners across three championship courses take one person weeks to assemble, and the timing has to line up across every venue. We work directly with the courses and resorts to put it together, send a concierge to run it in person, and give the organizer the one thing a do-it-yourself trip never can: the chance to be a guest, not the operator.
- What about people who do not play golf?
- Companions get a trip of their own on the same days: spa, excursions, beach, and long dinners, planned with the same care as the tee times.
- What happens if plans change?
- You can give your spot to a friend for free up to 30 days before arrival, convert an early cancellation into cash or future trip credit on our published schedule, and you are fully covered if a storm or anything on our end disrupts the trip.
- How far ahead should we book?
- Groups usually book several months out to lock the dates, the rooms, and the tee times. The earlier you start, the more of the calendar is yours.
- Is it really hands off for the organizer?
- Yes. You share one private code, everyone registers and pays for themselves, and a concierge runs the details on the ground. You get to enjoy the trip you planned.
- Who looks after us once we are there?
- A real Arrive Golf concierge is in Punta Cana for the whole trip, not a phone number you hope answers. They confirm every tee time, smooth the check-ins, hold the dinner reservations, and quietly handle the thing that goes sideways before your group notices it did. They will even run your scoring all week: Ryder Cup-style teams, Skins, Closest to the pin, or casual foursome play.
- How do we get a price?
- Tell us your dates, how many are coming, and the courses you want. We send back one clear number per golfer.
