King's Island Golf Resort and Country Club

The north of Vietnam does not have so many golf courses but there is one beautiful course near Hanoi. Kings Island was the first golf course ever built in North Vietnam and is located on the shores of the Dong Mo Reservoir in Ha Tay Province in the shadow of Ba Vi Mountain, 50km outside of Hanoi. This 36-hole golf resort has a club house and all the usual facilities including a international standard restaurant offering Western, Thai and Chinese cuisine, in addition to traditional Vietnamese foods pre-pared by experienced chefs. The majestic Ba Vi Mountain range and over 1,100 hectares of water surface ensures that the 350 hectare Kings Island Golf Resort & Country Club is one of the most scenic golf destinations in Southeast Asia.

It is an outstanding natural site with sand dunes, sea breezes and fantastic sea views and is one of the Best 500 Holes in the World (by Golf Magazine-December1999).

Sculpted out of the coastal dunes, along the Eastern Sea, the Ocean Dunes Golf Club is the ideal respite from the demands of daily life. Enjoy Phan Thiet's brilliant sun, windswept dunes and sea breezes as you tee-off at one of the most exciting links style golf courses in the region.

Sofitel Dalat Palace Golf Club

From Ho Chi Minh you can travel into the Central highlands of Vietnam to Dalat "City of Eternal Spring" and "Le Petit Paris" with its cool crisp air throughout the year.
The oldest course in Vietnam originally built by the French colonialists in 1922 has now been restored to an 18th hole course gently blending into the rolling hills of Dalat and overlooking the Xuan Huong lake now described as one of the most beautiful courses in Asia"

At 7,009 yards in length and par 72, Dalat Palace Golf Club is an enjoyable challenge for golfers of all levels. Low handicap players will be tested by a series of lakes, which meander through ten of eighteen holes, as well as strategically placed bunkers, which will penalise the miscalculating risk-taker.

Novice players will find relief with large accommodating greens normally left open for run-up approach shots, as well as wide, forgiving fairways.
Dalat Palace Golf Club features par 3's ranging in length from 164 to 234 yards and par 5's up to 556 yards. These varied lengths allow a true examination of your golfing skills, and require that players use each club in their bag - the hallmark of a great golf course. Four different tee areas on each hole allow players to determine their own degree of challenge on the course.
