Royal Hua Hin Golf Course

Royal Hua Hin stands as Thailand’s oldest 18-hole international standard course, steeped in history and charm just a mere 5-minute drive from downtown Hua Hin. Originally commissioned in 1924 to cater to the British railway workers and Thai aristocracy, its design by a Scottish railroad engineer showcases a traditional British golf course layout amidst breathtaking natural terrain.

While a major renovation in the 1980s brought it to international standards, its mature tree-lined fairways provide shaded respites, enhancing its timeless allure. Despite its age, every golfer’s mettle is tested here with tight fairways, doglegging holes, and elevated, circular greens.

Yet, Royal Hua Hin isn’t just a trip down memory lane. It boasts charming features, from monkeys frolicking along the 13th fairway to small owls overseeing play near the 7th green. Temples nestled on tree-clad hillsides and glimpses of the ocean add to its picturesque appeal.

While playing conditions vary, with mud in the rainy season and firmness in winter, the consistent greenskeeping ensures a quality experience year-round. Service staff, proficient in English, cater to a diverse array of golfers, ensuring a seamless round.

With snack kiosks every three holes and a revamped clubhouse offering a perfect 19th hole, Royal Hua Hin invites golfers to reflect on its century-long legacy. For historical significance and unmatched convenience, a round at Royal Hua Hin is a must for every golf traveler to Hua Hin.
