The novelty act of Bangkok golf, in the best sense: the City course recreates holes inspired by the world's most famous layouts, so you can 'play Augusta' without the invitation. Conditioning is strong and the experience is memorable — bring your camera and your short game.

Had a wonderful Thai dinner at The Royal Gems Golf & Sports Club; thoughtfully arranged by the management . The ambiance is elegant, peaceful and truly relaxing. We tried Wun Sen (glass noodles) and fried tofu, both prepared to perfection by a highly skilled chef—absolutely delicious. The overall dining experience was excellent, enhanced by the warm hospitality and courteous service of the staff. Truly a memorable and delightful evening.
The landscape is lush and well-maintained, with the golf course kept in great condition. The atmosphere is quiet and peaceful, making it ideal for a relaxing weekend getaway
Smart course design with lots of hazards and well placed bunkers. Fairways and greens are in great shape, divots well managed. Stayed here 3 days and it’s one of the best golf getaways near Bangkok.
