Hua Hin Golf - Thailand

HI all

After 2 very enjoyable trips in Pulai Springs and Bintan Lagoon with my party of 8 frens, we have decided to bring the next golf/family stay to Thailand, and possibly Hua Hin.

Heard a lot about Hua Hin. I even read abt it in one of the Middle East Magazines here. Worth a trip there?

How wld one usually travel to Hua Hin? I understand that its about 200km from BKK by car.

There are many "world class" courses:

- Bayan
- Black Mountain
- Imperial Lake
- Kaeng Krachan
- Majestic Creek
- Palm Hill
- Royal Hua Hin
- Spring field

Which courses have you guys played and given the thumbs up?

How abt the rates and standards of the accomodation?

- Hilton
- Bayan Resort
- Hua Hin 3 star Golf Villa

hey, check out this thread for more info.

Thumbs up for Banyan, Black Mountain as first choice followed by Spring Field, Imperial or Majestic Creek .... for 3 star hotel acc you may want to try Wanara Hotel which is about 3 years old ... is clean with a quality finish and the staff were very helpful. It is within 5 minutes walk from the beach with restaurants located nearby.

The food was good with a buffet style breakfast including omelette station and a wide selecion of fresh fruit, cereals, toast, bacon, egg, fried rice, etc. Our children were able to find something to eat each morning no problem.

The swimming pool is at the side of the hotel and while it is not big it was never busy when we were there. We did find it a bit cold at times, probably due to it mainly being in shade (particularly in the late afternoon).

My fav course in Hua Hin = Black Mountain ....
