Pattaya's best kept secret is undoubtedly the quality and value of its Golf Courses, we use only championship standard courses designed by the very best golf architects and designers. Clubhouse facilities are excellent with everything you might need and more including swimming pools, massage facilities, great restaurants and superb shower and locker rooms.
All courses provide caddies to guide you through your round with words of advice and encouragement and whilst we would always advise our golfers to make use of the buggies (especially in the midday sun) on a few of the more select courses they are mandatory.
Quite simply, golfing in Pattaya is a match for anywhere in the world at a fraction of the cost with each course offering a fantastic experience for golfers of all abilities (with no course requiring a handicap card). So, whether you are a low handicap golfer who enjoys a challenge or a complete novice there is no better place to play than the courses of Pattaya.
