Siam Country Club

Siam Country Club Pattaya is one of Thailand’s most established golf venues, located around 20–30 minutes from central Pattaya. With four 18-hole championship courses and a long-standing tournament history, it is a leading choice for golfers planning a Pattaya golf holiday or wider Thailand golf package.

The club first opened in 1971 with the Old Course, originally designed by I. Izumi and later redesigned by Schmidt-Curley Design. Expansion followed with Plantation (2008), Waterside (2014) and Rolling Hills (2019), all designed by Schmidt-Curley. Together, these courses form one of the most comprehensive multi-course golf complexes in Thailand.

Each layout offers a different style of test. The Old Course is tree-lined and strategic, Plantation features significant elevation changes, Waterside is more open and playable, and Rolling Hills introduces bold shaping and risk-and-reward holes. Across all four courses, conditioning is consistently strong, greens are well protected and water hazards feature prominently. Multiple tee options ensure the courses remain playable for a wide range of handicaps.

Siam Country Club Pattaya is internationally recognised as the long-time host of the Honda LPGA Thailand on the Old Course, part of the LPGA Tour schedule. The venue has also hosted Asian Tour and other professional events, reinforcing its reputation as one of Thailand’s leading tournament venues.
