Taekwang Jeongsan Country Club Description:
(resort course on a private island in the Saigon River)

Taekwang Jeongsan Country Club is located on its island in the Saigon River. Travel to the Ho Chi Minh City golf course requires golfers to venture out of the city on Vietnam’s main north-south highway and take a ferry across the Saigon River. It takes around 90 minutes to reach the golf course from the central hotel districts in Ho Chi Minh City. A shorter route is to charter a private speedboat taxi up to the river. Many boat taxis leave from the port near the Saigon Zoo. (see below)

The 18-hole Korean-owned course design was by Golfplan – Dale & Ramsey Golf Course Architects from the USA. The out and back layout is typical of top resort courses. The tips stretch out to 7395 yards, but there are forward tees for those looking for a more relaxed round of golf.

Heavy bunkering on most holes of this otherwise flattish land adds interest and enjoyment throughout the golf course and poses challenges even for professional golfers. Wall-to-wall Paspalum grassed fairways, greens, and tees ensure plush conditions and favorable ball lies.

The front nine plays along the river afford some excellent views to the right of several holes. Holes 9 and 18 are the two signature holes, with 9 being a long par-4 and 18 being a dogleg par-5. Both play right to the clubhouse, so make sure to play the correct green. Both holes share a bunker between the number 9 green (left) and number 18 green (right). Playing on the Out (Sun Course) and In (Moon Course) ends up a very overall enjoyable day out golfing in Saigon.

The large clubhouse forms the anchor for residential and commercial areas, which are off to the side of the Jeongsan course. Inside the clubhouse, golfers will find elegant locker rooms with spa facilities, two restaurants serving local and Korean favorites, and a well-stocked pro shop.

Insider's Tip: For Ho Chi Minh City golf visitors, there is a speedboat service from the pier in District 1. The service is very convenient and cuts the commute time to Jeongsan by only 30 minutes. Book this service and golf at Jeongsan Country Club will be better than using the highway and public car ferry.

"Liked the transfer from city center to the golf course via private boat trip Course not in the best condition anymore"

Tim G. (2013-02-23)

"What a treat..we took the speed boat from Riverside in D1 of HCMC and arrived at the course 30 mins later. The golf course is challenging with traps to consider on nearly every shot and overall a nice layout which will challenge all levels of golfers(i am a 2 hdcp and found it to be a decent challenge from the blue tees). The course is in pretty good condition though there are lots of divots on both the fairways and greens. Beware of the traps as there are lots of unraked footprints. The caddies are not well trained to take good care of the course, though they are very sweet. Typical of se asian golf these days, we played the front 9 in 2 hours but waited on very slow korean golfers who refused to let a twosome through them. The back nine took a very frustrating 3 hours. Again, these two groups would not let us through though they had 4 holes open in front of them. The rangers were too timid to do anything about it. Pretty ridiculous. The clubhouse has great locker facilities and be sure to bring a change of clothes for a nice shower. They also have a spa and sauna. Food is mainly korean which i didnt try but my friend did and he loved the kimchi soup. Overall the golf course was very good, conditions decent(v slow but true greens), and facilities were great. I would come back and pray i dont get stuck behind rude and disrespectful golfers."

Golf Tour Packages in Saigon

The service from start to finish was excellent (late changes to room requirements, number of players etc not a problem). Effective communication was maintained from start to finish. A very fair price for the services provided (I make a lot of trips to Thailand for golf so I know the general costs of hotels, transport, golf if you book directly). I like to use a service provider for larger groups to avoid all the administrative hassle and this is the second time I have used Golf Asian - it will certainly not be the last time. They take all the pressure off the planners/organizers, which meant we could all relax and enjoy the holiday. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

And Tks to all the staff & drivers .

Despite the weather delay we had great time playing Loch Palm and Red Mountain over the weekend. Arrangement was on point. We will visit again. Thanks very much.
Edwin Wong
Just back from great 3 week trip with Golfasian, visiting Hua Hin, Bangkok and Pattaya. Golf Asian arranged everything from arrival at Bangkok airport to departure. All we had to do was turn up, play golf and have fun. Every transfer, hotel and golf course went smoothly. Every golfer should experience golf in Thailand. Golfasian highly recommended.
Mike Wills
We have used Golf Asian for 7 years in a row for our ASIAN Golf Trips, we have played Thailand 4 times, Vietnam, and Indonesia twice

Their service is of the highest quality, their knowledge of the market is second to none, and most importantly their staff, we have dealt with Lit extensively and she is amazing, and so are all the other staff, including the drivers, and airport meet and greet staff

Most importantly the value for money you get is second to none

Keep up the good work

Will use them again next year

We have just returned from our 2018 Hua Hin Classic golf trip and I have nothing but praise for Golfasian, from the pick up at Bangkok airport to the drop off it ran like a Swiss watch - we all know that managing 20 lads is like herding cats but Golfasian did a perfect job - special thanks to Thanita and Jinny.
