Lahad Datu Golf & Country Club
Lahad Datu Golf & Country Club is Sabah’s first all‑Bermuda layout and one of its longest at 6,325 meters. Opened in 1994, the course sits within vast oil‑palm plantation terrain, using natural land contours to create elevation movement, pond crossings and stream‑lined hazards. Water is a recurring theme on the course, culminating in the dramatic signature 17th—an island‑green par‑3 demanding precision to a narrow plateau surrounded by flowing water. While remote and occasionally affected by monsoon rainfall, the design offers a distinctive blend of plantation landscape, broad fairways and challenging water‑rich shot‑making that rewards accuracy and course management.
