The Majestic Creek Country Club Hua Hin

Some of the holes here are very foreboding but the pleasure gained from walking through the beautiful environment will take some of the scare away. Whether it's because Majestic Creek is further away from town than some courses or a lack of advertising, there are seldom crowds here so it's ideal for those looking for a leisurely day of golf but forget to call ahead for tee-off times. The often small and hidden and very undulating greens and sometimes sadistic pin placement will bring you back to reality after the walk down the fairways though. The distance between many greens and tees can be quite long so a cart is necessary for many here. In fact, should you not get a cart, some of the caddies here can get downright surly. On this score, Majestic Creek could learn a lot from Palm Hills. A local Zoysia grass is used on both fairways and greens. This spongy grass provides incredible lies, as long as you stay in bounds, and using a native grass requires less water and chemicals than non-native varieties. Though located inland from the beach, the Majestic Creek also has a beach resort, located just north of the Royal Summer Palace in Hua Hin. The resort offers 48 rooms, each with a view of the Gulf of Thailand. There is a free shuttle running between the resort and country club throughout the day.
