Laguna Phuket Golf Club
Voted Top Ten for Best Golf Resort in Asia, Best Clubhouse in Asia and Best Golf Courses in Thailand by readers of Asian Golf Monthly magazine, Laguna Phuket Golf Club is an 18-hole, par-71 resort course, designed by Max Wexler and David Abell, which challenges golfing enthusiasts of all abilities. Measuring 6,654 yards from the back tees and 5,464 yards from the forward tees, the course features a wealth of scenic lagoons, coconut groves and undulating fairways, set against the dramatic backdrop of the surrounding mountains and the nearby sea.
Meandering through a labyrinth of lagoons, the course requires golfers to play with great accuracy and to select clubs carefully. Water looms on 13 of the 18 holes and threatens to swallow any shot veering too far off course. On several holes, adventurous long hitters will certainly enjoy taking a rewarding gamble by cutting corners, while on other holes, strategic iron play is a must!
The signature par 3 sixteenth hole offers a green encased by a myriad of gaping bunkers, while the short par 4 ninth hole looks deceptively easy, until you realize you are forced to hit into the small island green.
The par 5 seventeenth hole; perhaps the most challenging, requires three long yet precise shots into a large green. The fifteenth might make you think you are playing in the Rockies, as you watch your shot soar to the green, set against the back drop of the magnificent mountains.
Laguna Phuket Golf Club also offers a wonderful opportunity for you to refine your game as its extensive practice facilities and state of the art teaching center. Feature include a covered area for sun and rain protection, a full length driving range, putting greens, practice bunkers and chipping areas; so you can work on both your short and long games. The LPGC Teaching Centre offers the video analysis with the latest teaching software together with comprehensive learning aids. All the Club’s professionals are qualified PGA professionals.
