Best Ocean Golf Club

Holes 18 | Par 72 | Length 6455 m / 7059 y | Type Parkland | Architect Lee Schmidt and Brian Curley

A very challenging Schmidt Curley designed links style course close to the ocean and when the wind blows it becomes even more difficult. All but the very accomplished golfer would be well advised to move forward a tee box!

The Best Ocean course is renowned for its tight fairways, often with water on either side and its elevated greens which are well protected by bunkers on every side. If you don’t hit it straight then it will be a long day and you will need to carry plenty of balls.

The standout hole is the par-3 15th, a 200 yard plus monster which requires an accurate tee shot over water to a very narrow green protected by bunkers.

The only consolation is that during the week the course is usually pretty quiet so you will not be holding anyone up as you retrieve your ball from the water!

Excellent clubhouse, and practice facilities as you would expect from a club of this stature.

A tough course but if your game is on song you should take it on at least once.

Disappointment on a course which could be amazing.

Reviewed by Andy Harrison; on 11 Aug 2024

I booked this purely because it was the nearest course to another activity. I played here two years ago and there is really no change. The place is very tired and needs a lot of tlc to improve it. The staff were friendly enough and the two caddies were both very good.....we shared a cart which was fun. The course however, is in a very poor state. The tees are ok, the fairways are very poor, the bunkers are bad and the greens were just about acceptable. We moved along at a nice pace but this was because there were very few others playing!! Sunday morning at about 8am in Thailand ......the car park should be full and so should the course!!! We payed just under 3000 baht for the two of us so it wasn't expensive, especially for a weekend, but it wasn't worth any more. It's a shame because the course itself could be very, very nice with some very challenging holes.

The greens are as good as any PGA golf courses

However the fairways are in need of further maintenance. There are signs of burnt grass probably due to dry weather conditions. The bunkers are in good condition. Overall I would rate it at 6 out of 10.
