    1. I have been considering taking up golf for some time now and these courses make me want to play for sure, they look amazing!

  1. these courses in Vietnam look incredible, and certainly put Vietnam on my golfing radar! I used to play alot back in the UK but didn’t play much in Cambodia. have just started playing again in Malaysia though and am really enjoying it…

  2. For me the great thing about golf is that even when your game’s going badly – which for most of us is much of the time – you can be on one of the most beautiful walks in the world which is good enough in itself.

    1. I’ve always thought that there’s a strong correlation between how good a golf course looks and how hard it is to play.

      Great coastal views usually means unpredictable gusts of wind. Idyllic lakes signals goodby to wayward drives.

    2. thanks for your comment Jack, and yes you are correct about ‘game going badly’, meaning that the surroundings are even more important so we can at least enjoy where we are and not what we are doing!

  3. I’d heard a little about golf being played in Vietnam, but from your blog, it appears to be really taking off in a serious way.
    Courses designed by some of the biggest names in golf certainly whets the appetite to put Vietnam on the golfing radar. Couple that with stunning hotels with an array of food to cater for all, beautiful scenery & being well looked after,.. it’s hard to see what’s not to like.

    1. so true Paul, golf on the ‘Vietnam Golf Coast’ looks kind of perfect…get yourself a cheap flight to Vietnam and i’ll meet you there !

  4. great review, monty has designed a few good courses worldwide so i’m sure it would be a true test of golf, the country and surroundings certainly look like a great place to visit for a golf trip! play well ⛳️

    1. I appreciate your comment Graham, these courses all do look like a true test of golf! Would love to play them at some stage, will have to get my travel planning diary out…

  5. From the pictures those courses look to be very well cared for. It would be amazing to play some Vietnamese courses.

  6. I had no idea that so much golf design skill from some big names in the golf world had gone into Vietnamese courses. I must drop by to play a few rounds one day soon.

  7. Hi
    I’m a very keen golfer and play regularly at home and at least twice a year on foreign shores, after viewing these magnificent courses , I would definitely consider playing in Vietnam in the future.
