Step Back in Time at the Historic Golf Course Built for Thai Royalty and Railway Elites
Located next to Hua Hin’s iconic train station, the Royal Hua Hin Golf Course is the first golf course ever built in Thailand, dating back to 1924. With its historic roots, charming layout, and convenient central location, it’s a unique experience for any golfer looking to combine heritage, nature, and easygoing play.

A Classic Walk Through Golfing History
Don’t expect dramatic water hazards or bold elevation changes – Royal Hua Hin offers a traditional parkland design, with tree-lined fairways, old-school bunkers, and a layout that feels like a nod to British golf heritage. Monkeys occasionally roam the course, and the backdrop of the nearby hills gives the course its peaceful character.
While it doesn’t match the conditioning of newer resort courses, it’s surprisingly fun and very playable – especially for golfers who appreciate a walkable round and a piece of history beneath their feet.
Caddies are mandatory and always included, and golf carts are typically included in our packages, though walking is a comfortable and popular option here.
Transfers are not automatically included, but Royal Hua Hin is located just minutes from most central Hua Hin hotels — and easily accessible for golfers staying in town.
