This immaculately-conditioned course unusually consists of three six-hole loops, each with two par-3s, two par-4s, and two par-5s, a somewhat controversial arrangement that creates more scoring opportunities and a diverse range of holes for golfers to play.

While it’s over 7,000 yards from the black tees, this impeccably-maintained course has been designed as a resort course so it’s playable for golfers of all standards.

Green Fee Price: from THB 3,150 (~$91 USD) for 18 Holes + Caddie + Shared Cart
#4. Siam Country Club - Waterside Course (Pattaya)
Siam Country Club - Waterside Course (Pattaya)
A water-heavy, high-class championship course with 5-star service
Built around the series of large lakes that give it its name, the lengthy Waterside Course at Siam Country Club in Pattaya is no walk in the park, but there's much to love. The course is kept in immaculate condition, the fairways carpeted with Paspalum and the lightning quick greens clad in ultra-dwarf Bermuda.
Island greens, abundant water and sand, and some stiff breezes mean navigating this 7,400-yard course is quite a challenge, while the service on offer at the modern clubhouse is second to none. While its sister courses are more heralded, this is one not to miss.
Location: 25 mins from downtown Pattaya
Average Rating: 4.7 out of 5
Top Reviews: "Great course, great views, great caddie!", "A pleasure to play", "Fantastic!"
Green Fee Price: from THB 4,000 (~$115 USD) for 18 Holes (excludes caddie and cart)
#5. Chee Chan Golf Resort (Pattaya)
Chee Chan Golf Resort (Pattaya)
A stunning course that has twice been deservedly voted Best Course in Thailand
Dramatically set in the shadows of the famous Khao Chee Chan Buddha, and offering unforgettable views of the Gulf of Thailand, Chee Chan is a visually stunning affair. Open since 2018 and collecting rave reviews ever since, its an 18-hole links style course with undulating, rolling fairways and contoured greens.
There's plenty of water in play, with five out of the first six holes as well as all five holes of memorable closing stretch all offering up the risk of a watery grave. Strategic bunkering and two-tier greens offer further challenges, while modern facilities await at the end of your round. A stellar addition to the Pattaya golfing scene.
Location: 40 mins from downtown Pattaya
Average Rating: 4.6 out of 5
Top Reviews: "Amazing course with wonderful views", "A 'must-play' in Pattaya", "Superb!"
Green Fee Price: from THB 3,600 (~$104 USD) for 18 Holes (excludes caddie and cart)
*****
So there you have it, our clients' picks for the very best courses in Thailand. We were a little surprised by the omission of courses such as Black Mountain Golf Club in Hua Hin and Red Mountain Golf Club in Phuket, but to be fair with so many amazing courses to choose from in Thailand it was inevitable that the list would always end up leaving off some stunning courses!
A hearty thanks to all of our customers who took the time to submit reviews, your efforts do not go unnoticed. Here's to a wealth of great golfing in 2024!
