Golf Courses: Bangkok

Lakewood Country Club

Located just 18 km. from Bangkok at the Eastern outskirts, the most rapid

developing area. Lakewood Country Club is the Largest green area composing

of spacious 27 holes golf course and housing estate of luxurious living.

Fantastic course with 3 contrasting 9 hole layouts named 'Lake', 'Wood' and 'Rock' with a choice of 4 tee boxes. Always in top condition. Good golfing can be assured and some of the par 3's are really excellent golf holes that rival the best. The relatively flat terrain is enhanced by a profusion of flowers and shrubs; water features on almost every hole.

The club house was designed by the 5 - star hotel designer, fully equipped with luxury facilities in the spacious 4-storey building for relaxation after playing golf.

Lam Lukka Golf &Country Club

A short drive from Bangkok's thriving metropolis, Lam Lukka sets the stage for a golf experience not easily forgotten. Both courses meander through Bangkok's wetlands, where over 10,000 trees and water ways provide homes to over 100 species of birds and wildlife.

The Championship East Course places a premium on driving the ball long and straight. Host of the 2002 Thailand PGA Championship, Lam Luk Ka's East Course will punish errant golf shots, but make for an enjoyable round if played from the somewhat friendlier white tees. The back nine is considered one of the best in Thailand, ending with a dramatic risk-reward Par 5. Lam Luk Ka's Championship East Course remains one of Thailand's most challenging layouts.

The West Course is relatively short, but water comes into play on 15 holes making course management a key factor in scoring. Every hole provides several options, so longer hitters can still hit driver although it's not necessary on most holes. The West Course is a favourite of tourists and recreational golfers, and is home to a plethora of native birds and wildlife.
