Navatanee Golf Course is an exclusive golf course situated 12 miles from the heart of Bangkok and only 8 miles from the international airport. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Junior, Jones transformed local paddy fields into a 6,902-yard championship course of truly international standards. It was his first masterpiece in Asia.
It opened in 1973 specifically to host the 23rd World Cup of Golf in 1975. The U.S. team, led by Johnny Miller at the peak of his game, won the event. Navatanee golf course also hosted the Kingdom’s National Open in 1999 and that same year Golf Digest USA ranked Navatanee among the top courses in Thailand.
Such rich history, coupled with an abundance of beautiful mature and striking rosewoods and a variety of other trees plus vivid arrays of bougainvillea adorning the fairways, creates a very serene but colorful atmosphere for a perfect round of golf in the heart of one of Asia’s great cities.
Navatanee’s signature is its 6th hole, a daunting 445-yard par four that demands a draw-shaped shot from the tee in order to reach the green in regulation. However,with water guarding both the entire left side of the fairway and another lake fronting the green in a sweeping reverse “S” shape, making par on this hole is a notable achievement.
This course is tough for professional players while affording recreational golfers an enjoyable challenge. Play is strictly for members on weekends, but Golf Orient has booking privileges to bring our guests for play during weekdays. This course always is maintained well and the caddies are very knowledgeable.
The clubhouse has a superb outdoor restaurant overlooking the 9th green and offers some of the best local food around. Aside from its proximity to central Bangkok, the course’s prestigious exclusivity makes it possible to enjoy a four-hour round of golf. Navatanee is a legendary golf course in Thailand that simply must be experienced. Book this course through Golf Orient, or let us add it to a personalized Bangkok Golf Package for you and your group.
