The RG Salaya Golf & Sport Club

4-star: Above average course - well worth a visit.

Est. 1991

The RG Salaya Golf & Sport Club (formerly Royal Gems S&GC): Here on the western side of Bangkok is one of the best presented golf courses in the greater Bangkok area. That said, it is hard to imagine a layout where more water comes into play alongside the fairways and around the greens.

With water flanking most fairways on one side or the other (and occasionally both), you'll need a steady nerve and excellent shot-making to make it round here without at least a few splashes. If you've stayed dry until the heavily-bunkered par-3 17th, you're biggest test is about to come. The long par-5 18th is a combination of a drive onto a peninsula, lay-up to an island fairway, and then an approach to what is virtually an island green. Good luck!

Each hole has been individually sculpted to presents its own unique challenge. In addition to the water hazards, there's an impressive array of bunkering, including small pot bunkers, sprawling fairway traps and beach-like greenside bunkers.

Several mansion-sized villas occupy land just beyond the course perimeter, but not to the point that they interfere with or detract from the golf, or indeed the naturalness of the course.
