Alpine Golf and Sports Club
Alpine Golf and Sports Club's picturesque hills were created from flat rice paddy fields and the changing elevations may remind you more of places like Chiang Mai, Hua Hin or even Myrtle Beach. The rolling fairways and undulating greens at Alpine differentiate the course from any other in Bangkok. Eighty percent of the greens slope from back to front, so keeping the ball below the hole is the key to shooting low scores. Good fairway and approach shots will be rewarded while badly placed shots held subject to costly penalties.

Bangkok Golf Club
Bangkok Golf Club's 18 hole championship course is always well maintained to international tournament standards. The main features of course layout are the strategic arrangement of water hazards and bunkers. The Par 5 9th has been rated as one of the best 500 holes in the world by Golf Magazine in America and hosting the 2003 Volvo Masters of Asia further added to the course designs' credibility. Another course highlight is the 11th hole, where the island green requires good confidence to hit a strong tee shot over the water and carry the bunker blocking the front of the green.
 

Best Ocean Golf Club
Best Ocean Golf club is a golf course that every golfer playing in Thailand needs to try at least once. Being located west of Bangkok and near to the sea; the breezes at Best Ocean lend themselves to very pleasant playing conditions. In addition, a links style course layout makes Best Ocean unique among Bangkok’s top courses. The course has narrow fairways and elevated, well guarded greens, both characteristic of award winning Schmidt-Curley designs.

Lam Luk Ka Country Club
Lam Luk Ka Country Club offers the best 36 hole layout in all Bangkok and provides a very relaxing golf day in Bangkok. Because it's a little further out and features two courses, tee times are usually easy to find. Both courses meander through Bangkok’s wetlands, where over 10,000 trees and waterways provide homes to over 100 species of birds and wildlife. There has been a great deal of tree planting, so the courses are already are blessed with more shade than many of the newer Bangkok golf courses.
as does the 15th tee.

Muang Kaew Golf Club
Recently redesigned by Lee Schmidt and Brian Curley from the USA, Muang Kaew now boasts 18 well guarded greens, many of which are elevated with large side catchment areas, a very unique design aspect and hardly ever seen on Thailand golf courses.
Wide fairways give players some respite for approach shots, most of which are into difficult to hold greens due to the aforementioned elevation changes, high lipped bunkers, and shaved fringes.

Navatanee Golf Club
One of the top 3 Bangkok courses and host of the 1975 World Cup of Golf, Navatanee has improved with time and matured into one of Bangkok’s most beautiful courses. Play is strictly for members only during weekends, but the course does allow international guests to play during weekdays.
The Navatanee golf course is always well maintained and the caddies are very knowledgeable. Some great holes are sprinkled throughout the course including the short Par 4 5th which is one of the more difficult despite being only 329 yards, and the Par 5 9th around the water, which receives unanimous approval from all who play here.

Summit Windmill Golf Club
Summit Windmill is one of the most challenging layouts in Bangkok. Despite its difficulty, it continues to remain an attraction for all types of players as course conditions are always kept up well.
Water comes into play on many of the holes starting with a large hazard that flanks the left side of the long par-5 1st hole. The same concept is repeated on the 18th and both these holes also happen to be the golf course signature holes that well exemplify the course challenge. The 1st hole is a long 624 yards, even by today's standards, and the 18th is an exciting finishing hole that can provide some dramatic endings to any round.

Suwan Golf & Country Club
Suwan Golf & Country Club is a new course is just less than an hour drive from Bangkok. Surrounding fruit orchards and rice fields along with the golf course's hilly and challenging layout makes every hole have its own unique character. More than most other Thailand golf courses there are many holes with significant elevation changes where level fairways play up to built up and well guarded greens.

Thai Country Club
The course as expected is well-maintained year-round and features a great variety from hole to hole, along with an abundance of water and sand bunkers. With its immaculate presentation and conditioning, coupled with a very strong and classic parkland layout, Thai Country Club is regularly voted as a Top 5 course in Asia. Thai Country Club is a layout that requires good course management. It's hard to imagine the terrain here was originally flat, especially when looking across the pleasantly rolling earth mounds, contoured fairways and often elevated greens. The fairway and greenside bunkering is superb, almost like a work of art. Anything wayward from the tee will usually be findable, but is also likely to be sitting down in clinging semi-rough, making your next shots just that bit more difficult.

Vintage Golf Club
The Vintage Golf Club is one of Bangkok’s lesser-known layouts, so much so that many players are pleasantly surprised by this course. Vintage was designed by renown US golf architect Arthur Hills, one of his only Asian creations. The course also retains many of the natural surroundings like marshes with reeds and multi-colored bougainvillea plants to give the golfer the feeling that he is in the Thai countryside rather than at a championship course in the outskirts of Bangkok.

Windsor Park & Golf Club
Windsor Park is set in a large park land on the outskirts of Bangkok. The course features mature tree lined fairways, many green side bunkers, sweeping creeks and ponds, and sloping greens.
The first 27 holes consisting of Courses A, B, and C all opened the same time and share similar design characteristics. All aspects including design, challenge, beauty, and playing conditions are in perfect harmony making Windsor golf a perfect course for all players. Windsor Park Golf Club is a favorite among locals and an excellent choice for thosewho appreciate a good course that is away from the Bangkok hustle and bustle.
