Vietnam Golf & Country Club, conveniently located a mere 17 kilometers from the vibrant heart of Ho Chi Minh City, offers an unparalleled golfing escape amidst 300 hectares of breathtaking natural beauty. Designed to feel as if the land was sculpted specifically for the game, our two championship courses, the West Course and the East Course, meander through mature woodlands with a gentle touch, ensuring a serene and harmonious golfing experience. Since opening its doors in November 1995, we have dedicated ourselves to providing a sanctuary where golfers can connect with the game and the stunning environment, making it an ideal destination for those seeking a peaceful yet challenging round of golf close to the city.
The West Course, a Taiwanese masterpiece, presents a classic test of golf at 7,106 yards, with its narrow, tree-lined fairways demanding accuracy from the tee. Its fast, level greens are a true test of putting prowess, a characteristic that has seen it proudly host the Vietnam Open Asian PGA Tour events. While its championship length provides a significant challenge, even for single-digit handicappers from the back tees, the course is playable and rewarding for all skill levels from the regular tees. The iconic 11th hole, a demanding 408-yard par-4 dogleg, exemplifies the strategic thinking required, with its well-placed hazards and elevated green, promising an unforgettable golfing highlight for every visitor.
Complementing the West Course, the 6,946-yard East Course, designed by the legendary Lee Trevino and opened in 1997, offers a different yet equally captivating challenge. While its fairways are more forgiving, the East Course boasts 110 strategically placed bunkers and inviting water hazards, all leading to undulating, fast-rolling Bermuda greens that have humbled many a seasoned player. After a rewarding day on either course, our spacious clubhouse awaits. Indulge in the comfort of our well-appointed locker rooms, complete with Japanese showers and rejuvenating dry and wet saunas. Savor delicious local Vietnamese noodle soups in one of our two excellent restaurants, and browse our pro shop, one of the best-stocked in Vietnam, for all your golfing needs. We warmly invite you to experience the unique charm and challenge of Vietnam Golf & Country Club.

The course is divided into four nines, each providing a distinct challenge. Course A is situated in a developing area with future accommodations, while Courses B, C, and D begin at the clubhouse. Courses C and D demand precision off the tee, whereas A and B require strategic play. Notably, the par-5 holes are long and often play into the wind, while the par-3s offer scoring opportunities if you avoid the greenside bunkers.
Standout holes include the strategic par-4 sixth on Course A and the challenging par-3 fifth on Course D, which plays over water.
