⛳ The Royal Hua Hin Golf Course – Thailand’s Historic Gem ⛳
Opened in 1924, The Royal Hua Hin holds the distinction of being Thailand’s first golf course. Designed by Scottish railway engineer A.O. Robbins, it carries the elegance and challenge of a traditional British golf course. Even 100 years later, its layout remains a true test for golfers of all levels, where low scores are rare and every round demands focus and strategy.
Location & Accessibility: Just 7 minutes from downtown Hua Hin and our guesthouse, it’s one of the most convenient courses for visitors wanting a classic golfing experience close to the city.
Recent Improvements: After years of underwhelming conditions and poor management, The Royal Hua Hin is finally showing signs of a comeback. New leadership has begun restoring fairways, bunkers, and greens, while preserving the historic charm of the layout.
Why It’s Special: Despite past challenges — overpricing, neglected bunkers, and inconsistent greens — the course’s timeless design, central location, and historic significance make it a gem in Hua Hin. With careful management and a focus on quality, the future looks bright for Royal Hua Hin, promising a rewarding experience for golfers and a strong potential for the owners.
