The Plutaluang Royal Thai Navy Golf Course in Pattaya is nearly 50 years old and as you would expect this is a very mature course in beautiful surroundings. It’s a bit further out than some of the other courses and takes about 40 minutes to reach the course. There are 36 holes here and many of the holes wind around the huge lake in the centre of the course which attract a wide variety of wildlife and birds.

The design of the course is a bit old fashioned and it has never been remodelled so have a very natural feeling. The use of Zoysia grass which is unusual in most modern golf courses adds to the natural feel of the course.

The four courses are named after the points of the compass and North & South are part of the original layout and the other two nines were added in the mid 1990’s. The courses offer a similar challenge with some quite narrow greens and well-bunkered greens with some thick rough if you get offline.

Most people remember the third hole on the north course which has an island green with a lighthouse overlooking the green and the last hole on the South Course has a very interesting approach over water to quite a small putting surface.

The clubhouse has bene upgraded recently and has good changing rooms and showers although rather unusually they charge you for the use of towels. Nice view over the courses and the nearby mountains form the restaurant

This is a fun course to play if you are looking for a relaxing day out in beautiful surroundings

Value course - good starter

Reviewed by James G. ; on 10 May 2023

This is a good course to start your golf break in Pattaya. Can't really lose your ball here quite cheap but be prepared for patchy greens and fairways. Bar closes early. Cash only

Very scenic & mature golf course- overall a nice track and well worth a visit!

Reviewed by BC; on 18 Apr 2022

It's a hilly course, lots of trees, & elevation changes, and plenty of water hazards. Cow grass fairways are cut nicely, very hard and roll like crazy The greens are quite firm but roll true. The Caddies were friendly, very knowledgeable and spoke decent English. The clubhouse is a little dated but well kept with decent locker rooms.

"A decent courses which is excellent value"

Reviewed by Doug; on 25 May 2016

We played the south nine holes and it was a very scenic courses with nice breezes blowing. It is very cheap and amazing value but a little far out of Pattaya but if you are looking for a relaxed day of golfing in beautiful surroundings then you should try this course.

I played here three times whilst holidaying in Pattaya and experienced all four courses. - especially liked the West course with its signature island green with the rather unique lighthouse. Caddie are very friendly -lovely natural surroundings and excellent value.
