Santiburi Country Club Chiang Rai opened 1993 designed to take advantage of the natural terrain by Robert Trent-Jones Jr, one of the world's finest golf course designers, this is a championship 18 hole, par 72 test for novice or golf professional alike.
The course designer has gone through a great deal of effort to create a water-friendly course with plenty of bunkers, sloping lies and good dog-leg holes. None is more difficult than the course's par-5 18th where not only do players have to negotiate around a water hazard on the left side of the green from the tee shot, but also on the right of the green on the approach shot. Designed to maximize the risk/reward theory means varied options for many of the par 4 and 5 giving conservation approaches for the novice and challenging hazards for the more experienced golfers." There is also hotel accommodation on-site.
