Just played it with my wife today. Greenfee as of October will be at Baht 1000 and Baht 250 for caddy on weekdays and there will be no difference for Thais/Falangs.

Incredible place and it reminded me of Tablamu and Thai Muang just off Phuket.

We enjoyed the golf course very much. Great place and tremendeous value for money. Just let the course, plants and flowers set-in a bit more and it'll be a great golf course addition to Hua Hin. No need to travel all the way to Springfield and Lake View anylonger. The Army couse has arrived.

Give it a try and enjoy the proximity to the coastline especially the last few holes.

Fairways and Greens

PS> bring enough balls

The greenfee on weekends/holidays is B 1500 and Caddy B 250 until they open the club house.

Played today and it was very busy indeed. Group of 3x3, we had to pre-book.

Value for money.

I played very recently and the greens had deteriorated - probably from having been cut too low at such an early stage, which they still are, hence loads of sand.

The club house looks very impressive, but I do not see it being finished next month - February maybe?

Two points of interest, firstly if you wish to have a non-playing guest go round with you they charge another full green fee and secondly no cameras may be used away from the first tee.
Courage is grace under pressure and when circumstances change you change your mind.

hi,

This golf course's design is good. Coast west of St Andrews, is quite a new course, but I really could not be said, and the test is relentless. Beautiful large green Golf Links, often rough and thin breathtaking. Need a good caddy, strong drink, and concentration.Hua Hin has been considered one of the best golf destinations in Thailand. There are other a little further but still be achieved relatively easily to play one day. Black Mountain, Banyan and Sea Pines are the last opening price in the region of Hua Hin. So if you need a break from the hectic pace of life on the beach, so there is enough current to keep you busy and happy during your stay. All are in good condition and presents challenges for novices and experienced golfers. The courses tend to get busy on weekends and holidays, when visiting Bangkok hearing the region and in high season (December-March), can play sometimes be slow.
