Pattana Sports Resort
Pattaya
Located between Bangkok and Pattaya in Chonburi, Pattana Sports Resort is a large-scale golf and leisure complex offering a well-rounded experience both on and off the course. Known for its facilities and variety, it’s a popular choice for golf groups looking for convenience and flexibility in one location.
The resort features a 27-hole golf course split into three nines — Andreas, Brookei and Calypso — each offering a slightly different style of play. Fairways are generally wide and forgiving, making the course accessible for a broad range of golfers, while water hazards and bunkering add challenge across all three loops. The variety allows for different combinations, keeping rounds fresh over multiple days.
Conditioning is typically strong, with well-maintained greens and a layout that flows easily, making it an enjoyable course to play without being overly demanding. It’s particularly well suited to mixed-ability groups or those looking for a more relaxed, social golf experience.
What really sets Pattana apart is the overall resort offering. Beyond golf, you’ve got a wide range of sports and leisure facilities including a fitness centre, swimming pool, tennis courts and on-site accommodation. It’s a true multi-purpose resort, ideal for groups who want more than just golf.

About The Area
Hua Hin has long been regarded as Thailand’s original seaside golf resort, combining royal heritage, relaxed coastal charm and one of the strongest clusters of championship courses in Southeast Asia. Located around three hours south of Bangkok, it offers a more refined and tranquil alternative to Pattaya while still delivering tournament-level golf.
The flagship venue is Black Mountain Golf Club, consistently ranked among Asia’s top courses. With dramatic rock formations, natural water hazards and immaculate conditioning, it has hosted multiple international tournaments and offers a true championship test. Nearby, Banyan Golf Club Hua Hin delivers panoramic mountain views, strategic bunkering and a memorable closing stretch that rewards precise approach play. Springfield Royal Country Club, designed by Jack Nicklaus, provides further variety with tree-lined fairways and a slightly more forgiving layout.
Golf in Hua Hin is characterised by wide fairways, bold bunkering and superb presentation. Caddie service is standard and enhances the premium feel, while practice facilities are strong across most clubs. The dry season from November to March offers the most comfortable playing conditions, with warm temperatures and lower humidity.
Off the course, Hua Hin maintains a relaxed seaside atmosphere. The night market is a highlight, offering fresh seafood and authentic Thai street food. Beachfront bars provide sunset views over the Gulf of Thailand, while nearby vineyards and national parks add scenic rest-day options. The town’s royal connections — including the historic Klai Kangwon Palace — give it a more understated and elegant feel compared to other Thai resort areas.
For golfers seeking elite championship layouts, dependable winter sunshine and a more relaxed coastal environment, Hua Hin delivers one of Thailand’s most complete and enjoyable golf escapes.
