Where you'll play
Kirimaya Golf Resort & Spa, formerly known as The Country Club Khao Yai, invites you to experience a truly exceptional golf escape nestled amidst the breathtaking natural beauty of Khao Yai. This is not just another golf course; it's a sanctuary where the pristine environment and world-class design converge. Renowned for its commitment to quality, Kirimaya stands as the premier golf resort in the Khao Yai region and boasts one of Thailand's most untouched and naturally integrated courses. The distinguished design team at Nicklaus Design themselves have lauded this course as one of their top three in all of Asia, a testament to its unparalleled charm and challenging play, promising a memorable experience for every discerning golfer.
Step onto the fairways and feel the immediate embrace of Thailand's captivating countryside, a serene contrast to the bustling city life. The gentle undulations of the terrain, meticulously crafted by Jack Nicklaus, blend seamlessly with the surrounding wooded hills and lush jungle. While some initial tee shots might seem demanding due to the natural vegetation, with each round, you'll discover the strategic nuances and the delightful rhythm of the course. The presence of wetland areas, small lakes, and lily-covered ponds adds to the course's innate beauty and strategic depth, all under the watchful gaze of the majestic jungle-clad Khao Yai hills. You'll find yourself at one with nature, a welcome respite to truly focus on the game and the stunning surroundings.
Kirimaya offers a golf experience that is as rewarding as it is beautiful. Take on signature holes like the par-4 16th, a masterpiece of design where water protects a green that offers a truly picturesque challenge, a testament to the harmonious collaboration between Nicklaus and the natural landscape. Or perhaps the par-5 3rd, where careful navigation around water hazards leads to a rewarding birdie opportunity. With five sets of tees, the course is designed to be enjoyed by golfers of all skill levels. Complementing this exceptional golf is the 5-star Kirimaya Golf Resort, featuring unique tented villas, personalized butler and chef services, and a luxurious spa. For those seeking an unforgettable total golf resort experience, a visit to Kirimaya, in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Khao Yai National Park, is an absolute must.
Rancho Charnvee is an 18-hole layout in the Khao Yai National Park area. The rather flat Bob McFarland resort course is fun to play and caters to golfers of all abilities and as with other Khao Yai golf courses, views from the course are often stunning.
The golf course has more room off the tees and larger more receptive greens than other Khao Yai golf courses. The front nine plays around a country farm house. The back nine stretches around a flat piece of land with a nice backdrop of hills and mountains. Although the course may be a little more open in its tightness, the presence of excellent bunkering throughout ensures that course management cannot afford to be too relaxed. Rancho Charnvee is long and challenging off any of the three tee boxes with many water carries and out-of-bounds.
The first hole requires a solid drive over a large lake and is not for the easily intimidated. It plays uphill and fairway narrows to smallish green. The very long par-3 4th hole is another of several holes that will challenge even the most accomplished scratch golfers.
The clubhouse sits in front of a small lake. There is no driving range but the changing rooms and kiosks are first rate and the restaurant serves good food. This combined with well-trained staff and well-maintained course conditions will insure that golfers in Khao Yai will enjoy playing at Rancho Charnvee.
