If the golf memberships in Samui are any thing like the price of everything else in Samui, the word inflated comes to mind. You can golf around Pattaya at a lot of courses for around 7oo baht these days, its called competition, Samui and Phuket have none, hence the grossly over priced green fees, and food, and everything else ,from tattoos to sunglasses.

Sorry is Lamai a 9 hole course and are the prices quoted for 18 holes? Must be a well keep secret as every guide book only mentions Santiburi. General location?

Thanks

The 9 hole course in Lamai is fairly new which is why it isn't in the guide books yet. Haven't been there myself though I've heard its like a so-called 'executive' course with short par 3 and 4 holes.

Santiburi is the only 18 hole course. Spectacular views of the sea from almost every hole. The course is built on a steep jungle hillside with native areas bordering the holes, thus if you're like me and your tee shots tend to stray you can lose a lot of balls while incurring a lot of penalty strokes. Buggies are comulsory (1 golfer per buggy) and only the caddies are allowed to drive because the cart paths are very steep with sharp curves (if golfers were allowed to drink & drive there would be some ugly accidents). It is unfortunately one of the most expensive golf courses in Thailand, and being the only 18 hole course on the island they have no competition. Due to the terrain and land prices it's just not practical to develop courses on Samui.
