Our guests are spoilt for choice with no less than eight 18-hole golf courses to be found within a short drive of the resort. The Royal Hua Hin Golf Course, Thailand’s very first golf course, opened shortly after the resort, in 1924. Designed by Scottish railway engineer O A Robbins, it is characterised by the ancient trees that line the fairways and the slight elevation of most greens that will test golfers. The Springfield Royal Country Club also is a favourite with avid golfers, offering a total of 27 holes, while the valley setting of the par 72 Black Mountain Golf Course appeals to golfers of all skills. Other prime greens include the Banyan Golf Course with views of the Gulf of Thailand, and the first 36-hole course in Hua Hin, the Imperial Lake View Hotel and Golf Club, which was created under the concept of one course with four styles.
