About
Award-winning 27-hole course ranked as one of the best in Thailand
Located in the stunning mountains of Chiang Mai, just 40 minutes from the city, Chiangmai Highlands Golf Resort offers a challenging 27-holes of world class golf. Designed by Lee Schmidt of Schmidt-Curley Design, the same designer behind Mission Hills, Amata Spring, and Siam CC, the course has won many prestigious awards since its opening. It's an exciting challenge for golfers of all levels, with deep bunkers, undulating greens, and a beautiful mountain backdrop.
The course was built on a 'power spot' - the hermitage of Kuba Sivichai, the revered monk who founded the famous Doi Suthep temple. The location offers breathtaking views in every direction, with its tranquility, high elevation, cold climate, fresh air, pure water, and fertile soil providing the perfect setting for this award-winning golf course.
The course is in immaculate condition, with Paspalum fairways and Tifeagle greens providing excellent hitting surfaces and fast, consistent greens year-round. The bunker complexes are deep and punishing, adding contrast and framing each hole. With over 130 fairway and greenside bunkers, most with high front edges, the course is challenging and requires strategic play.
The undulating greens are typically around ten on the Stimp-meter and are firm yet receptive, holding well-struck iron shots. The greens slope front to back, requiring golfers to pay attention to strategy and utilize local caddie knowledge to putt in regulation.
Approach areas around green complexes feature strictly mown catchment areas, giving golfers many options for playing a chip-and-run, pitch shot, or even putting the ball up onto the green surface. Imagination is a terrific asset when trying to get up and down at Chiang Mai Highlands.
The Thai-style clubhouse offers a pleasant atmosphere and all necessary facilities for relaxation before or after your round. Locker rooms are basic but adequate. Chiang Mai Highlands has a superbly maintained practice facility, including several practice greens, a short game area, and a 300-yard driving range with grass tees. There is a small on-site Thai resort with private cottages for those who want to extend their stay. It's a great choice on an Chiang Mai golf holiday.
Reviews
Nice and challenging course. Unfriendly staff at registration in the pro shop.
Due to little misunderstanding of the caddy fee, the staff was unhappy and no helpful. We visited the pro shop after the game, we wanted to see the mask but the staff refused to let us open the box to see the material and design. She was super unfriendly and rude. The course is mature and challenging. Few fairway was brownish without grass. The caddies are excellent. The locker/changing needs to be upgraded.Good course with great views. Playable for all skill levels
Really good course and lots of fun to play. We played the B/C routing and pace of play was good (3.5 hours for 2 ball). Green speed between B and C was totally different which made It harder. Overall great experience and good value for money!Not what I expected
The greens were not good and some bunkers like cement, likely I avoid a lot of them. Practice putting green was awful. Not what I expected for the price I paidCourse Info
