Tanama Lodge in Punta Cana now has a synthetic grass tennis court. The court is open to the general public.
For the opening, top Dominican tennis player of all times, Victor Estrella played an exhibition game on Sunday, 17 December 2017. Playing with him were fellow members of the Dominican team to the Davis Cup, Jose Olivares and 17-year old Nick Hardt, ranked 25th junior player in the world (January 2018) by the International Tennis Federation. In the first game, Hardt defeated Estrella 6-3. In the second game, Hardt defeated Olivares in tie-breaker 7-6.
Estrella congratulated Javier Bonnet for the court. “I think this is a great idea to have a court for tennis training in the country before the grass season begins,” said Estrella. He said the court would get better as it settles down.
Bonnet explained the owners at Tanama Lodge will have preference at playing at the court, but it will be open for day and night play for the general public.
Tanama Lodge also has futsal court, a beach volleyball area, a one kilometer jogging trail, swimming pool, mini-golf, fitness center, among other attractions.
The project is a real estate development that operates as a condo hotel in Punta Cana.
