Laguna Phuket Golf Club (Banyan Tree)

at Laguna Hotels (Dusit Hotel, Sheraton Hotel, Allamanda Hotel, and JWMarriott )

20 minutes from Patong beach

Phuket Laguna is a resort golf course with pleasant breezes from the Andaman Sea. It is not too demanding and reflects the natural beauty and tropical surroundings of Bang Tao Bay.

The golf course is set on a valley floor overlooked by low wooded hills. The fairways flow nicely, the bunkers are molded, and the greens are generally large and welcoming. The front nine are particularly gentle, while some difficulty comes into play by the time you reach the turn.

In fact, the finishing 2 holes, both par fives, are the most challenging: the monster 612 yard par five 17th, requiring play at least twice over water; and the fine 527 yards par five 18th hole, where three well struck shots give a chance for a finishing birdie.

Extensive facilities include a driving range, 2,500 square meter putting green, chipping green and practice bunkers. The modest clubhouse provides a first class restaurant with well-stocked full bar. Non-golfers are encouraged to make use of the on-site complete golf resort spa facilities, which makes a 4-hour spa and massage treatment the perfect companion to a round of golf.

The Phuket Laguna golf course is a good choice for your first round of golf in Phuket as the difficulty is far less than other Phuket golf courses. It is also conveniently located in the Laguna area, which makes for easy transportation for those staying at any of the area luxury Phuket hotels. An early morning round of golf will have you with your family for lunch and the rest of the day on the beach or left to explore Phuket Island.
