Best Time to Play Golf in South Vietnam and Ho Chi Minh City
In Ho Chi Minh City and South Vietnam, there are two distinct seasons including rainy (May – October) and dry season (November – April). Generally, the weather here is never too atrocious for golfing and you can play golf almost all year round. However, it would be worthwhile to note that the ideal time runs from November to April, when the climate is at its mildest.
In the dry season, the temperature can rise up to 32⁰C and you should prepare some protected gears to avoid the heat. In the rainy season, there are always unexpected short and heavy showers which may frustrate you, especially in late afternoons. If you don’t want to get drenched, it is advisable to finish your golf session early in the morning.
Vietnam Golf & Country Club is the first 36-hole golf club in Vietnam and is widely regarded as Vietnam’s Premier Golf and Country Club.
Located just 20 kilometres from the centre of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam Golf and Country Club is also the nearest golf club to the city.
Set amongst 300 hectares of land, two great golf courses have been carved out of the existing woodland with minimal land movement, leaving you feel that the land was always destined to be a golf course, so natural is the lay-out and design.
The West course first opened in December 1994 and was designed by Taiwanese architect Chen King Shih. It hosted the Vietnam Open (Asian PGA Tour Event) in 1995 and 1997.
The course winds its way through the trees offering challenging tee shots to the tree lined fairways before playing to the softly contoured Bermuda TifEagle greens, which provide beautiful putting surfaces all year round.
Lee Trevino, six-time Major Champion Winner (US Open 1968,1971, USPGA Championship 1974, 1984 and The Open Championship 1971 and 1972), designed the East Course which opened in September 1997. The East Course offers more generous fairways than the West Course but is protected by well positioned bunkers, water hazards and undulating Bermuda TifDwarf greens.
Whichever course you decide to play, you will leave Vietnam Golf & Country Club with many fond memories of the golf course and the whole experience…
Twin Doves Golf Club Description: (exclusive well-maintained members course)
The Twin Doves Golf Club offers a 27-hole international standard championship members golf course. Located 1.5 hours from Saigon, the Twin Doves parkland course is broken into three nines named Luna, Mare, and Sole. The Saigon golf course is one of the best-conditioned layouts in the Saigon area and makes excellent use of Paspalum turf and extensive landscaping.
With the views of rural Vietnam, the Luna Course comprises many small hills, fruit orchards, and neighboring forests. The mounding and land shapes combine to form challenging hazards. Five of the holes are connected by rolling hills and the rest are separated by tree-lined fairways.
The Mare Course is more natural with all holes flanked by creeks and trees. Fairways are narrow, and accurate shot making is critical to score well. Most of the greens are multi-tiered and guarded by water hazards, making shot accuracy once again paramount to a good score. The Mare Course is the most exciting of the 3 nines.
The Sole Course features island green, beach bunkers, and plays around a blue lake. This makes the nine both visually appealing and challenging. Also unique to this nine is the presence of seven par-4’s and only one each, par-3 and par-5. Most golfers prefer to avoid the Sole Curse for this unconventional routing. In any case, this nine is still attractive with a series of natural water hazards and challenges.
As expected of a private members club the Twin Doves facilities are all 5-star. Locker rooms, practice areas, and probably the best pro-shop in Saigon all enhance the enjoyment of golf at twin Doves. The international restaurant serves a variety Vietnamese, Asian, and Western fare but specializes in Korean dishes for most of the membership. Open air overlooking the golf course as well as air-conditioned dining options are provided to ensure enjoyment by all visiting Saigon golfers.
Long Thanh Golf Club & Residential Estate Description: (beautiful Ron Fream design considered the South's #1 course)
The Long Thanh Golf Club offers 36 holes of golf in the former rice paddies and scenic countryside surrounding Saigon. The Ho Chi Minh City golf course is located 30 kilometers north of the city on a bluff with unobstructed views back towards the Vietnamese capital.
Both the Hill and Lake course are well maintained throughout the year and the golf courses are a longtime favorite among locals. Many expatriates and Vietnam golf visitors prefer Long Thanh Golf Club over its more famous neighbor Vietnam Golf & Country Club.
The Hill Course features rolling fairways and large undulating greens. Large oil palms frame each hole. The Lake Course is characterized by many high lipped bunkers and water hazards on almost every hole to catch errant shots. Both courses feature Paspalum grassed fairways and tee boxes. Putting greens use Tifdwarf Bermuda grass which can roll anywhere from 8 to 10. This combination of grasses matches other top courses in the region. The rough at Long Thanh is cut relatively short and poses no real challenge.
All 36 holes have their character shape, and this wide variety makes for good challenges for both serious amateurs and professional golfers. Higher handicappers might prefer the Lake Course, however, which is relatively flatter.
Hole 13, a par-3 on the Hill Course is the signature hole and features a choice two greens equally good. Both require accurate tee shot as there is out-of-bounds over putting surface. The shorter putting area is possibly even more difficult surrounded by the 'Great Wall of Long Thanh,' with club selection being of prime importance, as there is water guarding the front and a rock face behind the green. This is a once seen never forgotten hole.
Another great hole at Long Thanh is the par-5, 14th hole on Hill Course. The longer you hit the ball, the tighter the fairway gets. If you can't reach the green in two shots, the lay-up shot requires real accuracy as there is out-of-bounds on the right and a lake on the left. There are frequently some big scores on this hole.
Both the Lake and Hill Courses are walking courses with single or shared golf carts being optional. Caddies, of whom 50% are male, are very good as most are long-standing employees at Long Thanh and some are even single handicappers themselves.
The Long Thanh Golf Club and Residential Estate have also spared no expense to build an elaborate clubhouse. The locker and changing rooms might be the plushest in Saigon. Ask for a shoe shine after your round. The pro shop is adequate, but often only stocked with a fleeing selection of merchandise. The main restaurant serves a fine selection of both Vietnamese and Western food for golfers after their rounds in both indoor and outdoor setting. It might be better however if the restaurant were more centrally located to take advantage of the excellent views of the Saigon skyline.
FLC Quy Nhon Golf Links
Located in FLC Quy Nhon Beach & Golf Resort, the 36-hole golf course is a harmonious combination of unique design and picturesque scenery of Nhon Ly Beach with the highlight of Eo Gio - the most spectacular place to watch the sunrise in Vietnam.
Most significantly, FLC Quy Nhon Golf Links, built on large sand dunes beside an evergreen pine hill, challenged golfers to conquer golf holes. Meanwhile, they can gaze out over the gigantic ocean, natural sand dunes, glorious sunshines as well as enjoy cool breezes.
It is a perfect cooperation of two leading golf companies from the USA: Nicklaus Design and Flagstick to create one of the gorgeous golf links in Asia, which is recognized by international experts.
FLC Quy Nhon Golf Links won the Best New Golf Course in Asia-Pacific award and was voted amongst the Top Ten Best Courses in Vietnam at the Asian Golf Awards 2016. Asian Golf Awards is the golf industry’s equivalent of “The Oscars” and owned by Asia Pacific Golf Group (APGG), the longest established specialist golf media house in the region.
