Best Places For Winter Golf

Best Places For Winter Golf

The last of the summer golf majors feels like a distant memory. Those warm, sunny days in July are now just hazy recollections, as we trade sunshine and celebratory drinks for waterproofs and hot chocolate. But winter doesn’t have to mean the end of golf season especially when there are warmer destinations waiting for you.

Preferred lies? Well, we all have our own take on those, but we’d much rather be lying on a beach after a round of golf—and with winter golf options, we certainly can!

We all know the allure of golfing in Spain and Portugal, and for good reason—they’re great! But if you’re willing to explore a bit further east and spread your birdie wings, you’ll be amazed at what your money can get you.

Golf in Asia might be new to some, and if that’s you, we have to ask: where have you been? This region offers much more than you might expect. Picture some of the world’s best golf courses, stunning scenery, caddies as standard (yes, really), buggies, and warm sunshine. All of this comes at favourable prices, making it almost too good to be true. But trust us—it’s real, and there’s even more to it than you’ve considered.

The elephant in the room...

Let’s address the obvious concern out of the way: yes, it’s a 12-15 hour flight from London, but if you make the pilgrimage to Scotland, you’ve already spent almost as much time traveling. And once you arrive in Southeast Asia, you’ll be met with a host of benefits that make the journey well worth it.

Whether you choose Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, or elsewhere in Southeast Asia, winter golf in here means sunshine! Break out your shorts and short-sleeve shirts, and leave your waterproofs behind.

The experience of winter golf in Asia offers amazing value. At Your Luxury Holiday, we’ve partnered with top hotels and golf courses to provide the best winter golf packages with the highest levels of service.

'Winter' Golf Temperature

Depending on your destination, the winter weather will typically be in the mid to high 20s degrees Celcius, and if climate concerns you, our golf travel concierge is ready to guide you to the perfect location.

The star of the show!

And the courses—where do we even begin? Golf in Thailand and Vietnam features some of the finest courses our Your Luxury Holiday golf team has ever played. And we play a lot! The options are endless, which is yet another reason to discuss your preferences with our golf travel concierge. Imagine playing at RG Golf City, which pays homage to nine of the world’s most iconic holes, or testing your skills on the back nine, a replica of Augusta. Or perhaps Black Mountain in Hua Hin, a breathtaking coastal course with some of the finest greens and fairways imaginable.

Just across the border in Vietnam, there’s Hoiana Shores—possibly our team’s favorite winter golf course. Set outside Danang, near the historic town of Hoi An, this links-style course combines pristine fairways with sand dunes, creating a truly unique experience.

Just imagine...

Tgolf is just part of the magic. The entire experience at each club is designed to make you feel like a pro. From the moment you arrive, your clubs are whisked away, and you’re guided into the luxurious clubhouse where a locker awaits you—fully stocked with towels and all the amenities you could need. It’s more like checking into a five-star hotel than a typical UK golf club.

After changing, you’ll meet your caddie, who’ll offer to warm you up at the range, practice some putting, or simply snap a few photos to make your friends back home envious—before you’ve even hit your first shot! As you play, your clubs are cleaned after each shot, bunkers are raked, and your ball is cleaned and placed on the green. Your caddie soon becomes your best companion and y the end of the round, you’ll wonder how you ever played without a caddie!

Winter golf in Asia feels like a dream. The rounds slip by effortlessly, and soon you’re back in the clubhouse, bidding farewell to your caddie (with a customary tip, your Golf Travel Concierge will advise you on these depending on your golf destination), and relaxing in a hot tub or shower. As the sun continues to shine, you crack open a cold beer and relive the highlights of the day. This is what winter golf should feel like!

Away from the golf, there’s so much more to discover. If you can tear yourself away from the fairways, you’ll find vibrant cultures and breathtaking landscapes to explore. While these destinations might be a bit further than Dubai or Morocco, they offer unique charms to share with your golf buddies, loved ones, or family.

Where else can you enjoy a morning round of golf, visit a serene temple in the afternoon, and finish your day with a beachfront dinner and cocktails? If you find somewhere else that offers this, let us know! But until then, we highly recommend making your next winter golf holiday one with Your Luxury Holiday to Thailand, Vietnam, or Cambodia. Let us show you the perfect blend of golf shoes and flip-flops!
