In the modern world in which we live, everything you ever needed is now at your fingertips as the internet is rapidly controlling every aspect of our daily lives. It’s great that we can sit back in comfort at home and traverse the world as we know it, find out all the best golf courses in Phuket, which tours you want to experience on the island, and even find the best hotels at the best value for money prices without moving an inch. Well, maybe you have to move your fingers a little bit.

Some of our golf guests don’t realize that we don’t just organize green fees and taxi transfers to and from the courses, we can also get you on the best tours and have a great selection of accommodation choices in Phuket at our fingertips. The prices for our hotels are even cheaper than some of the biggest online hotel booking agents in the world, without mentioning any names.

We have some of the best value hotels and resorts on the island, from 5-star options such as the Millennium Resort Phuket and Laguna Holiday Club, to a vast range of mid-level hotels and guesthouses. We only show a few of our golfers favourite contracted hotels. We have many more that can be considered. Don’t want customers to think we only have a few for their consideration.

If you already have a Phuket hotel in mind where you want to stay, let us know what it is and maybe we can get you a better deal or something similar.

We can create the total Phuket golf package, combining green fees at the best Phuket golf courses, taxi transfers to and from the courses and airport, simplifying your time in Phuket so you can concentrate on hitting the ball straight.

Best Time of the Year to Play Phuket Golf

Thailand is a sub-tropical country with a temperature that doesn’t drop below 30 degrees very often in the year, especially in the southern areas. Phuket is simply blessed when it comes to sundrenched climates, although there are some times of the year that are better for golf than others, so let us explain to you the best time of the year to play Phuket golf.

Summer Season
We are currently moving into the summer season in Phuket as we speak. Historically speaking, from November to April are the summer “high-season” months when the island enjoys the most visitors. This is a time of year when there is little humidity and almost no chance of a rain shower. If you are looking to play golf in Phuket when the weather is at its finest and the major beachside destinations are at their busiest, from November to April is the perfect time.

The downside of this time of the year is it’s very busy. As long as you book your tee-off times well in advance by clicking here, you shouldn’t have a problem getting your desired time.

Green Season
Known for many years as “low-season”, recently rebranded as “green season”, from May to October is a time when humidity is a bit higher and there is a greater chance of rain. Many people have holidayed in Phuket for 2 weeks during this time of the year and have never seen any rain. However, the best part about playing golf in Phuket during Green Season is the island is very quiet and peaceful. You basically have the golf courses to yourselves and the uncrowded nightlife scene really is perfect for a great night out on Bangla Road.

There are negatives and positives to playing golf in both season, but one thing remains the same: Phuket is the ultimate holiday and golf tour destination at any time of the year

Thailand Golf Championship in December

Thailand is very fortunate to boast a large selection of Championship golf courses, all the way from Phuket to Chaing Mai, Bangkok, Pattaya and Hua Hin. Although Thailand already hosts large tournaments on the LPGA tour, the highlight of the Thai golfing year is the Thailand Golf Championships, annually held at the Amata Springs Country Club on the outskirts of Bangkok.

This important Asian Tour ranking event manages to attract some of the world’s biggest players and names such as the charismatic Bubba Watson, Lee Westwood, Martin Kaymer and the ever-popular Spaniard, Sergio Garcia, who will all be playing at the Thailand Golf Championships between the 11th and 14th December 2014. Lee Westwood is actually a former winner of the event (2011).

The Thailand Golf Championships is the Asian Tour’s US$ 1 million flagship event. South African golf legend, Ernie Els, is also penned in to make his first appearance in the event. Ernie previously won a big event in Thailand at theBlue Canyon Country Club many years back.

The host venue, the Amata Springs Country Club, has been voted as the best course on the Asian Tour for the past 3 years running. Even Sergio Garcia has proclaimed his love for the course and can’t wait to get back to the ‘Land of Smiles.’

Thailand, especially Pattaya and Phuket, are home to some fantastic Championship golf courses. Red Mountain GC and the Canyon Course at Blue Canyon Country Club are Phuket’s stunning Championship courses. Pattaya’s selection include Siam Country Club and Laem Chabang CC.

We can book you the green fees at all Phuket and Pattaya’s biggest Championship courses, just click on the links to the clubs above to find out more details.

If you are a golf-lover visiting Thailand during December, get yourself over to Amata Springs to catch some of the best golfers in the world. Alternatively, you can come to Phuket and enjoy an exotic golf holiday, because as golfers, we would rather play than watch!

Re-Launch of Laguna Phuket GC
Over the past year, the Laguna Phuket Golf Club has undergone a vast amount of maintenance, which has seen both sets of 9 holes restructured. During the past year, only 9 holes have been available to play at any one time, but as we move into 2015, a re-launch of the full 18 has been planned for the 1st January 2015, which is great news for everyone. Laguna Phuket Golf Course will also be changing from a walking course to mandatory carts, which is very convenient in the tropical weather.
