Established in 1996 just 40 minutes north of the city, Royal Chiang Mai Golf Club & Resort is one of the region's foundational modern courses. Designed by five-time Open Champion Peter Thomson, the layout caters beautifully to both high-handicappers and seasoned pros. Set in a peaceful valley framed by mountain peaks, the course preserves the rolling countryside’s natural topography while incorporating waterfalls and streams. Because it was built on a former fruit orchard, it boasts one of the most diverse collections of mature flora in Thailand, featuring thousands of vibrant, fragrant trees that bloom year-round. Golfers will also enjoy a cooler, less humid climate with refreshing breezes, alongside a rich presence of local birdlife.

Siam Country Club features a diverse lineup of world-class golf courses, each presenting a distinct aesthetic and unique tactical challenge for players of all skill levels.

Laem Chabang Golf Club is a spectacular Jack Nicklaus-designed championship course, widely celebrated as the finest layout in Pattaya and one of the most beautiful in Thailand. Spanning 700 acres, this 27-hole property seamlessly integrates the region's diverse terrain into three distinct nine-hole courses: the Mountain, Lake, and Valley courses. Nicklaus’s critically acclaimed design masterfully blends manicured floral landscaping with the area's natural ruggedness, featuring exposed rock formations, dense jungle foliage, and tall coconut trees. Strategically placed sand traps, deep bunkers, and natural water hazards guard the large, elevated, and undulating greens, while every tee box is uniquely named after a signature tree or shrub planted nearby.

The Jack Nicklaus-designed Springfield Royal Country Club, situated off the Hua Hin bypass road, stands as a premier golfing destination and a budget-friendly alternative to Pineapple Valley and Black Mountain. Built to championship standards while remaining accessible to all skill levels, the course features five tee boxes per hole, though the championship "Jack" tees are best left to professionals. The layout demands precision and shot-making finesse, with mature forests and rolling hillocks punishing erratic shots. True to Nicklaus's signature style, the back nine heavily penalizes a weak fade, threatening tired players with massive waste bunkers and water hazards guarding the right side of the fairways. However, straight hitters will find the course rewarding, as it does not rely on extreme length to challenge golfers.

Sea Pines Golf Course, also known as the Army Golf Club II, is a scenic municipal course set along the Gulf of Thailand within the Suan Son Pradiphat (Sea Pine Tree Garden). Originally owned by the Royal Forestry Department, the land was transferred to the Royal Thai Army under the leadership of Field Marshall Sarit Thanarat, who served as Thailand's prime minister from 1957 to 1963. The army initially developed the area—characterized by its signature bracken pine trees, mountains, and ocean backdrops—as a dedicated retreat for serving soldiers, veterans, and their families.

Opened in 2021 and designed by Bob Moore of JMP Golf Design, Sai Golf Club brings a PGA-caliber, links-style layout to the heart of Thailand’s premier golf region. Moore masterfully transformed flat rice paddies into a visually spectacular and highly playable 18-hole course. While the surrounding landscape remains level, the individual holes feature dramatic internal elevation changes and distinct high-lipped bunkers. The massive, undulating greens are often bisected by large ridges; landing on the wrong side of these slopes makes a three-putt highly likely.
