BANGKOK GOLF COURSES

Panya Indra Golf Club comprises of three 9-hole championship courses, each with individual design and unique setting. Each offers its own distinctly different playing experience.

You can choose the Lagoon Course, Palm Course or Garden Course. These three beautifully sculpted courses are located in one exotic tropical location, offering the player a golfing paradise. These courses are very popular with local players and foreign visitors alike. The courses are open six days a week and night golf is available on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Another favorite among local residents and tourists alike, the course is conveniently located about 45 minutes south of Bangkok at Km 29 on the Bangna-Trad highway. Although this 18-hole course is fairly flat, its extensive use of bunkering and water hazards more than compensate to provide a challenge to golfers at all levels.

This course is deceptive and appears much easier than it is. It is a fairly flat layout with good fairways and greens. Water comes into play on every hole except the tenth. The greens tend to be quite and have many interesting slopes for the golfer to assess. The long par five holes are all difficult on account of the greens being so well guarded by either water or extensive bunkering.

The course is complemented by an elegant clubhouse, sporting facilities, residences and a boat club. Visitors are not permitted to play on weekends.

One of only a handful of golf courses located within Bangkok's suburbs, the Bangkok Golf Club is also one of the most delightful, offering golf on cleverly designed by extremely testing fairways and greens. Despite its central location, this course has a refreshing rural appeal, thanks in part to the many species of waterfowl that inhabit the numerous lakes and ponds. Highlights of this testing course include the par four 14th whose island tee is not for the fainthearted.

The clubhouse here is excellent and features traditional Thai massage, golf pro shop and a choice of international Italian and Japanese restaurants. Night golfing is also available at this course.

Bangkok Golf Club was home to the Volvo Masters of Asia in 2003.
 

Lam Luk Ka Country Club

36 Holes of championship and resort style golf.  A short drive from Bangkok's thriving metropolis, Lam Luk Ka sets the stage for a golf experience not easily forgotten. Both courses meander through Bangkok's wetlands, where over 10,000 trees and water ways provide homes to over 100 species of birds and wildlife. After your round, relax and take a swim overlooking the 10th, or enjoy a range of Thai or international culinary delights in the clubhouse restaurant overlooking the 18th.

This popular 36 hole course used Bangkok's early paddy-field courses as its role model. It contains many wide fairways and large greens and a lot of effort went into creating a pleasantly shaded atmosphere with plenty of trees and shrubs. Accuracy - not power - is the key to this course.

The Championship East Course places a premium on driving the ball long and straight. Host of the 2002 Thailand PGA Championship, Lam Luk Ka's East Course will punish errant golf shots, but make for an enjoyable round if played from the somewhat friendlier white tees. The back nine is considered one of the best in Thailand, ending with a dramatic risk-reward Par 5. Lam Luk Ka's Championship East Course remains one of Thailand's most challenging layouts.

A very popular course located within 30 minutes of Bangkok's downtown core on the newly-opened Ramintra expressway, this Jack Nicklaus designed 18 hole course offers a tough test for all levels of player. Huge lakes come into play on almost half the holes and at the 16th players have to hit their approach to an island green. Putting surfaces are good, but most of the greens are well guarded by deep bunkers.

The Legacy Club is the only Jack Nicklaus course in Bangkok offers challenging golf with lots of bunkers and many water hazards. Not for the beginner. Formerly known as Natural Park Ramindra. Big clubhouse with newly renovated restaurant and bar.

Welcome to Muang Kaew, one of Thailand's best-kept golfing secrets. We offer a challenging and superbly maintained 18 hole golf course that is quietly tucked away from the noise, hustle and bustle but still only 20 minutes from downtown Bangkok.

Muang Kaew Golf Course has been rated the number one golf course in the country by the first edition of Thailand Tatler's Complete Guide to Golf in Thailand. The architect has masterfully designed Muang Kaew by making the maximum use of the natural environment and greenspace. There are numerous challenging holes, all set in a parkland environment with lakes and streams winding their way through the golf course. Most holes are lined with a variety of mature trees, which give the golf course its great ambience and challenging play.

The clubhouse at Muang Kaew has also undergone extensive improvements to the pro shop, lounge, restaurant and recreational facilities, while new management systems have been brought in to control both golf operations and F&B.

The Vintage Club

Incorporating a glamorous clubhouse with swimming pools, tennis courts and a fitness center, the 18-hole Vintage Club is located in pleasant countryside about 30 minutes from central Bangkok and ten minutes off the Bang-na Trad 28 km junction at Bang Phli. Although the course is rather flat, its greens, water hazards and fairways are well-placed and it is always in excellent condition.

The course is located in pleasant, open countryside and the terrain is rather flat. Greens and fairways are in excellent condition. Water comes into play on many holes. The par fives are perhaps the most difficult holes on the course and require the player to 'to think out' his shots. There is a fine clubhouse in addition to a swimming pool, tennis courts and a fitness center.

A 45-minute drive from downtown Bangkok and 15 minutes past Don Muang lies one of the most famous courses in Thailand. The 27 hole - South (the Meadow), North (the Lake) and West (Forest) - Yoshihira Aihara designed course was host to the 1994 Thailand Open and the 1992 Johnnie Walker Classic International Tournaments.

The North Course ('The Lakes') has many water hazards & resembles golf courses typical of the United States. The South Course ('The Meadow') features mounds and water hazards and is reminiscent of Scottish courses. The West Course (the Forest) is notable for its profusion of trees and shrubs. The luxurious clubhouse features fine dining, a pool and sauna facilities. Pinehurst opened in 1988. 27 holes. Par 72.
