ProdigalSon Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 You golfers out there may or may not know of a new course opening on the Hang Dong road. It's a nine-hole course of a similar length to Stardome and the prices are similar too (as far as I know). It's having a special opening period at the end of this month with reduced green fees. Called the Mezzanine, I believe, it's located inside the Koolpuntville 9 housing development which is on the Hang Dong road near to Kad Farang. I think it will be open from around the 25th of this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailand Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 This is the 4th opening date for this course since the original planned opening in May. The prices I was given at the end of May made it almost 4x the price of the similar Hangdong 9 hole course for 18 holes.

FarangBha Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 4x what? How much should one expect? I had heard you had to buy lifetime memberships? How much would they be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProdigalSon Posted August 6, 2012 Author Share Posted August 6, 2012 Prices from the list I was given last weekend: 9 holes weekdays including caddy fee, 750 walk in or 530 if you go as a member's guest. On the weekend it's 950 and 630 respectively. Memberships start at 25,000 baht for one year up to 90,000 baht for five years. These prices are for Koolpuntville residents. For non-residents the prices are 30,000 to 120,000 for the same periods. As Thailand said, these prices are steep in comparison with other nine hole courses. However, for the opening period, 25/8 to 16/11, they're offering a 'special' rate of 480 baht for 9 holes on any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedonist44 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 With these prices means that there won't be much of a budget for a good maintainence and fertilization program which usually equates into a course that will not be to desirable to play on in a years time or less.

And the opening special rate of 480 for 9 holes,- ridiculous! Won't be seeing me there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a write up:- http://goo.gl/TBMWd Your link did not work for me but probably the most boring, now overpriced, golf course I have ever played. Doubling their green fees from THB600 last week to THB1200 for 18 holes walking now was not the smartest move. Link now working. Too many other good courses here,they need to review prices quickly.

hellodolly Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 Seems like a lot of money just to walk around and hit a ball trying to put it in a hole and when you finally get it in you take it out and start hitting it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes well beer seems like a lot of money just to pour down your throat, piss it out and do it all again the next day. Different strokes, literally.

Like one of life's other vices, every 'hole' played is vastly different, some more challenging than others and a lot of the fun is in the approach play ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinnieTheKhwai Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Just back from playing Mezzanine for the first time - probably not the last time.... Here's a write up:- http://goo.gl/TBMWd The lower price is likely for residents of any Koolpunt development, not just 9. It's the same with the swimming pools and fitness; if you live in one of them and are a member you can use the facilities at any other one.
