Where you'll play
Laguna Golf Phuket offers a thoughtfully designed course set against the stunning backdrop of the Andaman Sea. Redesigned in 2014, this course provides a strategic challenge, requiring golfers to make calculated decisions on each hole. The layout features a diverse array of holes, with the front nine navigating natural water bodies and the back nine weaving through mature trees, all framed by the lush tropical landscape.
The course is known for its excellent playing surfaces, with undulating fairways that demand precise ball placement for optimal scoring. While wide fairways may seem forgiving, strategic positioning is key to conquering the subtle complexities of the terrain. The course's design integrates natural elements, such as overhanging trees and strategically placed bunkers, to enhance the challenge.
Golfers will find the final two holes particularly demanding, with the 612-yard 17th requiring multiple water crossings, and the picturesque par-4 18th offering a rewarding birdie opportunity with a well-executed shot. Complementing the course, Laguna Golf Phuket provides extensive practice facilities, including a driving range and putting greens, ensuring players can hone their skills before teeing off.
The clubhouse features a restaurant with a full bar, ideal for relaxing post-round. Conveniently located in the Laguna area, the course offers easy access to luxury resorts and the island's attractions, making it an excellent choice for a memorable golf holiday in Phuket.
Blue Canyon Country Club's Lakes Course offers a compelling golfing experience on the northern end of Phuket Island, conveniently located near the airport. This course is designed to accommodate a wide range of skill levels, featuring five sets of tees for both professionals and amateurs. Its layout skillfully incorporates the natural landscape, with the front nine winding through lakes and canyons, and the back nine nestled among rubber trees.
The Lakes Course challenges players to maintain precision, as accurate drives are crucial for navigating the fairways and reaching greens in regulation. Approach shots often require crossing creeks and canyons, demanding strategic play. The signature 18th hole, a long par-4, is renowned throughout Thailand for its challenge and beauty. While long hitters may attempt the green in two, most players will find it wise to lay up short of the green, avoiding the jungle that guards its approach.
Following a comprehensive renovation in 2006, the Lakes Course stands as a worthy counterpart to the famed Canyon Course, offering fewer blind shots and a straightforward test of skill. Golf carts are included, enhancing the experience for holiday golfers. While facilities may show some age, they remain functional, and the experienced caddies contribute to an enjoyable round with their expertise and humor.
