Looking for a term membership in JB

I am looking for the above where spouse can enjoy full golfing privileges. Any advice?

Term membership usually apply to only 1 person excluding spouse. Why not go for a full membership, it's not that expensive in JB.....

I like Tanjong Putri, couple of courses to choose from and term is around RM 3500 (last checked), the downside is some time the heavy traffic (as the same road used by container trucks to the nearby port) could be a problem.

If you are ok with a walking course, what I can suggest is buy a lifetime membership at RJCC.

Whole family can use the facilities and also golf. As it is a transferrable membership, if u do decide to stop, it can always be sold.

Have you played at RJCC before?

If you are interested, I have a friend who is selling his off. He has moved to KL so will not be using it anymore.

The going rate is RM 15,000 ++

For term membership, usually you cannot enjoy full golfing privileges such as, you cannot tee in the morning on Saturday. Sat AM tee off is strictly reserved for full member only. However, you can still tee off on Sat PM and Sunday both AM & PM.

You can consider Starhill Golf Resort which is well managed by the Japanese. I am currently a term member there. The annual term membership is only RM3500.

The good thing about term membership is one does not neet to pay monthly subscription fee. For full membership, whether you play often or not, you need to pay subscription fee.

Thank you for all the advice. I understand that Palm Resort term membership do extend full golfing privileges to spouse.

any Palm Resort group here? do you mind if we join your group to play?

Sorry for digging up old thread, but would like to check, for term membership, do you still pay green fee?

what's the point of membership if still must pay green fee? usually members only need to pay for buggy or caddy fee.

I don't really understand, why do they give out green voucher when you don't have to pay for the green after joining as a term member.

At nsrcc, we still have to pay green fee leh... And iirc, its the most utilized or most number of play per day, maybe in the world...

For Starhill, term member only pays about MYR35 - MYR45 (depending on the course and no. of golfers) each time. I think that is not green fee. It is more like Buggy or Turfmate/Caddy fee.

Palm resort is cheap- i sold mine for only S$2,200 and the whole family can use. I think you only need to pay Rm35/pax + RM150/mth for the entire family. Pay 11 months, get 12th month free.

3x18 is good variety.

any feedback on getting lifetime/term member of Poresia?
pretty run down place imo but it's nearest to Sg and they have got 3-4 courses if i'm not wrong..

fantastic course......if u can play below 80 in poresia, u can play below 80 in mbgc

Hi guys, I'm looking for one as well.

Golf for me, spa for wife, facilities for kid.

Went to Pulai springs, recently felt it was very run down. Quite saying really. Greens becoming bunkers. Hotel quite poorly maintained.

Looked up Tanjong puteri, and the trip advisor Page has at least 2 rather scary robbery cases.

Any other recommendations from you guys?
