Hermes Golf Club

Hermes Golf Club is located 30 minutes from Pattaya and near to Pattaya Country Club.  It takes around 1 hour from Bangkok’s Suvarnabhumi International Airport to reach the course for those coming from the other direction.    

Renovated in 2024, Hermes Golf Club is an 18-hole course laid out on 200 acres of rolling natural terrain.  The short 6,067 yard layout is in average condition and has several tricked out holes which make it best suited for skilled golfers. Large ravines and cliffs frame many of the holes and also come into play to thwart good shots from being in play. Another common theme is water that juts into the fairways several times through the course, creating unnecessarily narrow openings to the greens.

Hermes Golf Club has several of these “exciting” holes. The par-4 seventeenth plays over 400 yards, is the longest par-4 on the course, and the signature hole. A good score requires a tee shot that negotiates the water which cuts in to the center from the right side of the fairway. The high cliff left frames the hole nicely, thus it’s signature appeal.  However, the green is severely sloped from front to back which makes stopping the ball on the approach shot very difficult.

The temporary clubhouse is adequate for most needs as are the on-course kiosks.  However, the permanent structure once completed will offer better service and more complete facilities. Hermes Golf Club is a choice among many nearby courses for golfers who are looking for a decent course at a reasonable price. Carts are mandatory, so this cost must be factored in.
