Cambodia Golf & Country Club
Phnom Penh
Located west of Phnom Penh, Cambodia Golf & Country Club is one of the country’s most historic golf venues and is widely recognised as Cambodia’s first international-standard golf course. Opened in 1996, the course has an established, old-school feel and offers a quieter countryside escape from the capital.
The 18-hole, par-72 layout measures around 7,077 yards and sits across gently undulating land surrounded by farmland. The design is fairly open in places, but water hazards, bunkering and changing lies add enough challenge to keep the round interesting. It is not as polished or modern as some newer Cambodian courses, but it has genuine heritage and remains a useful option for golfers looking to experience Phnom Penh’s original golf scene.
The course suits a wide range of players, especially those who enjoy a relaxed round with local character rather than a high-end resort environment. Facilities include resort-style amenities, with accommodation, swimming pools, tennis courts and event spaces listed by course sources, making it more than just a standalone golf course.
For Cambodia golf holidays, Cambodia Golf & Country Club works best as part of a Phnom Penh-based itinerary, especially when paired with newer courses around the capital for contrast.

About The Area
Sihanoukville is Cambodia’s main coastal gateway, sitting on the Gulf of Thailand and acting as the jumping-off point for islands such as Koh Rong and Koh Rong Samloem. For golfers, it is less of a traditional golf hub and more of a beach-and-golf extension — best suited to travellers who want coastal relaxation, island scenery and a different side of Cambodia after playing in Phnom Penh or Siem Reap.
The main golf option linked with Sihanoukville is Dara Sakor Golf Resort, located further along the coast in Koh Kong Province. GolfAsian describes Dara Sakor as Cambodia’s first international beachfront golf development, with an 18-hole Ocean Course and an 18-hole Mountain Course, while also noting it is around two and a half hours from Sihanoukville International Airport. Because of that distance, it is better viewed as a wider south-coast golf experience rather than a quick local round. GolfTripz similarly positions Dara Sakor as the main golf draw “in Sihanoukville and around”, while noting it is almost two hours away.
Golf here is best planned carefully, as the region is not as course-dense as Phnom Penh or Siem Reap. The prime travel period is generally November to April, when Cambodia’s weather is drier and better suited to golf, beach days and transfers.
Off the course, Sihanoukville is all about the sea. The city gives access to beaches such as Otres and Independence, plus boat trips to Koh Rong and Koh Rong Samloem, which are known for white sand, clear water and a more relaxed island feel. Ream National Park also offers mangroves, wildlife and boat excursions for a nature-focused day out.
For golfers seeking a pure golf trip, Sihanoukville works best as an add-on to Cambodia’s stronger golf centres. For those wanting beach time, island hopping and a coastal finish to a wider Cambodia itinerary, it offers a relaxed and memorable contrast.
