Description
Royal Long An Golf & Country Club
Located just an hour southwest of Ho Chi Minh City, Royal Long An Golf & Country Club is a newly developed 27-hole international standard golf facility designed to become a top-tier golfing destination in Southern Vietnam. Opened in phases starting in 2022, this countryside retreat in Long An Province combines expansive fairways, modern course architecture, and peaceful rice-field surroundings — making it a compelling new addition to Vietnam’s golf map.
The golf club currently features two completed 9-hole loops with a third under construction, creating a versatile 27-hole layout once fully operational. The course has been designed with both competitive and leisure golfers in mind, offering wide fairways, sculpted bunkers, and strategic water hazards that demand thoughtful shot placement without being overly punishing.
Built on relatively flat terrain, Royal Long An makes the most of its open countryside setting by incorporating large lakes, tall native grasses, and horizon-level greens that blend seamlessly into the landscape. Despite its tranquil environment, the course is just 60–75 minutes from District 1, making it an ideal day-trip destination for golfers living in or visiting Ho Chi Minh City.
The golf course is part of a larger development plan that includes a future clubhouse, practice range, and lifestyle amenities. Its early reviews highlight the course’s impressive turf quality, welcoming layout, and potential for becoming one of the region’s most popular golf spots.
Course Layout & Design
The current design includes two 9-hole loops with modern parkland styling — wide fairways, water-lined holes, and flat but thoughtfully contoured greens. The bunkering is bold and visual, while the routing offers strategic variation in par 3s, par 4s, and par 5s.
Future expansion includes a third 9-hole loop and a fully integrated clubhouse to create a seamless 27-hole championship experience.
Signature Holes Include:
-
Hole 3: A short par-4 with water cutting across the fairway and bunkers flanking both sides of the green.
-
Hole 8: A long par-5 with a double-dogleg design and a peninsula-style green, surrounded by water and grassy swales.
World-Class Facilities & Amenities
While still under development, the course already features a provisional clubhouse, golf carts, and trained caddies. The planned full-scale clubhouse will include a restaurant, locker rooms, pro shop, and practice areas.
A large driving range and putting green are scheduled for launch alongside the full facility rollout.
Host to Prestigious Golf Events
Royal Long An is actively hosting test tournaments and corporate golf events as part of its soft opening phase. It is expected to attract major amateur events as its full 27-hole facility matures.
Scenic Beauty Meets Sustainability
The course is designed to enhance its natural rice-field and lake setting, using water-efficient irrigation and native vegetation for a low-impact footprint. Wildlife is frequently seen around water hazards, adding to the tranquil countryside charm.
