northern end of Phuket, is recognized as being the most
exclusive golfing establishment in the region. It is
surrounded by freshwater lakes and has facilities to match any
of the world's leading golf resorts.

course features many natural hazards, multiple tees, narrow
landing areas, rolling fairways and well guarded greens.

land on the island green. The huge and opulent clubhouse
affords magnificent view of the golf course and has every
facility.

Banyan Tree Club and Dusit Laguna
A Championship 18-hole golf course located within the Laguna
Development, this par 71 layout offers sweeping views of the
Andaman Sea and is cradled within a surrounding mountain
range. Carved out of the existing sand hills, the par 36
front nine meanders through a once flourishing coconut
plantation. Players must be exact on their tee shots, as
water comes into play on five holes. The back nine features
water on eight holes. Of the three par threes, the 11th
hole, though only 137 yards from the men's tee, will leave a
lasting impression. The back to back par fives at the 17th
and 18th create an unusual finish. The clubhouse and hotel
facilities are of the highest standard.

Phuket Country Club
Set on undulating terrain, created from a former tin mine,
every hole of the first 18-hole layout provides a different
playing experience. The 557-yard, par-5, 10th hole on the
Old Course is one of the most unusual holes. A dog-leg right
that snakes around an enormous lake, the pin is reachable in
one! To achieve it, one must aim 90 degrees right of the
fairway and be able to carry the shot 240 yards over water.
The Country Club Course is a nine-hole layout for
low-handicap golfers. This course is not easy as wayward
shorts are penalized either by the water hazards or OBs.
