The development of new golf courses continues in Vietnam and we have an exciting new addition in Long An Province called West Lakes Golf and Villas. The golf course is situated to the west of Ho Chi Minh city and takes a little over an hour to reach. However, there is plenty of accommodation available closer to the golf course should you wish to stay outside the city.

An enjoyable links style experience somewhat off the beaten track. Whilst it's a fairly lengthy drive from the city to Vung Tau Paradise Golf Resort, those willing to take the trip to the seaside will be rewarded with a 27 holes of links style championship golf on one of Vietnam's least played courses.

Twin Doves Golf Club in Ho Chi Minh is a 27-hole layout about one hour from downtown Saigon which has been designed to blend with the natural terrain. The course at Twin Doves Golf Club is still maturing so not too many trees and the course relies on the many water hazards and bunkers for protection.

Song Be Golf Resort in Ho Chi Minh offers 27 holes with each of the three courses offering a different and unique challenge with numerous water hazards, mature tropical trees, plants and large uneven greens. Higher handicappers should probably avoid the more difficult Desert Course.

The Chau Duc Sonadezi Golf Course, also known as Sonadezi Vung Tau, is a stunning golfing destination located in close proximity to the charming tourist city of Vung Tau. This exceptional golf course was meticulously designed by the renowned Greg Norman. Nestled within a picturesque natural setting, it forms an integral part of a vast urban industrial park sprawling over a sprawling 2,287-hectare site. Visitors to this golfing paradise can enjoy pleasant year-round temperatures and gentle breezes that enhance their golfing experience.

The links-style Sea Links Golf & Country Club in Phan Thiet has a reputation of being one of the most difficult golf courses in Vietnam and you will need to play well to protect your handicap. The golf course architect has carved a courses out of the rolling sand dunes which are common to this part of the coast of Vietnam. It takes around to reach this course so it’s a full days outing from Ho Chi Minh so maybe better to stay overnight and play the courses twice.

Royal Long An Golf & Villas is a luxurious and serene haven for golf enthusiasts and those seeking an upscale retreat in the heart of nature. Nestled in the picturesque Long An province of Vietnam, this world-class golf and villa resort offers a unique blend of golfing excellence and opulent accommodation.

Two excellent 18-hole golf courses found within an expansive 1,000-hectare integrated resort complex on the southern coast of Vietnam, adjacent to the East Sea, the Garden Course at PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet is a meticulously landscaped parkland-style design that showcases seamlessly integrated bunkers along the fringes of the verdant green complexes. Routing through native wetlands characterised by numerous lakes and streams, the Zeon Zoysia fairways provide a luxurious surface where golf balls sit up invitingly on a bed of fine, needle-like blades.

Taekwang Jeongsan Country Club in Ho Chi Minh is the latest resort-style golf course to open in Saigon on a huge island in the Saigon River which can be reached by in 30 minute from the pier in District 1 and it takes you direct to the clubhouse. It’s quite a long course but has several tees to choose from so most golfers will be able to find one to suit their ability. The terrain is quite flat but the designer has positioned plenty of bunkers to protect the course.

Ho Chi Minh City situated in southern Vietnam is a fantastic base for a golf holiday in the country. You have some excellent golf courses close by, one of which is Harmonie Golf Park. It takes just over an hour to reach the golf course from the city centre but this is time well spent and you will see why shortly. Harmonie Golf Park opened for play in 2018, making it one of the newest golf courses in the whole of Vietnam. Located in the northern suburbs of Ho Chi Minh City, it is one of two golf courses which are next to each other. The second golf course being Twin Doves Golf Club, so you could easily stay in the area and combine the two if you wish.

Dong Nai Golf Resort in Ho Chi Minh is set around a huge lake making this one of the most scenic golf courses in Vietnam. Dong Nai is a little further out of the city than some of the other golf clubs but the extra travelling time is well worth the effort. In 2003 this course was voted the best in Vietnam and although it would struggle to regain that accolade up against the more recent competition it remains an exceptional layout.

Vietnam Golf & Country is widely recognised as one of the best clubs in the South and is conveniently located about 20 kilometres from downtown Saigon. A 36 hole layout set amidst mature woodlands and lakes.

The Bluffs Ho Tram Strip is another masterpiece from Greg Norman which has really captured the essence of a true links course and is designed around the huge sands dunes with dramatic ocean views. A unique golfing experience in an unlikely location. We think is is probably one of the Best Golf Courses in Asia.

Located next to the busiest airport in Vietnam the Tan Son Nhat golf complex is comprised of 4 9-hole loops to create to 18-hole golf courses. Set within a 36-acre site, the course designers have made the most of the flat landscape to create exciting and challenging golf courses that will test the very best players.

Long Thanh Golf Club is a popular 36-hole layout about 30 kms north of Ho Chi Minh. The two courses are quite different and the Hill Course is more tree-lined and The Lakes Course, as its name suggests, has plenty of water hazards to negotiate. Both course is quite forgiving with wide fairways and close-cut rough which is pretty easy to escape from. The greens also present a large target but if you are not accurate you may have to face a very long putt. In order to protect the course the designer has placed plenty of high-lipped bunkers in strategic locations and many of the fairways are bordered by water ready to catch the errant drive.
