Vietnam has quietly become one of the most exciting golf destinations in the world.
Over the past decade the country has invested heavily in championship golf, with many courses designed by leading architects and set across spectacular coastal and tropical landscapes.
For golfers looking to combine world‑class golf with premium travel experiences, Vietnam offers exceptional scenery, hospitality and remarkable value compared with many other luxury golf destinations.
A well designed Vietnam golf journey can include several regions. From the coastline around Da Nang and Hoi An to the dunes of Ho Tram and the energy of Ho Chi Minh City, each region delivers a different style of golf experience.
Why Vietnam Is Emerging as a World Class Golf Destination
Many of the country’s leading courses have been designed by internationally recognised architects including Greg Norman, Sir Nick Faldo, Colin Montgomerie and Luke Donald.
Coastal dunes, mountain backdrops and tropical vegetation create visually spectacular and strategically engaging golf.
International airports in Da Nang and Ho Chi Minh City also make the destination accessible for golfers travelling from Australia, Asia, Europe and North America.
Luxury resorts complement the golf with beachfront accommodation, excellent dining, spa facilities and personalised hospitality.
