The first of the new courses to open in 1991, Palm Hills is the closest to Hua Hin. It was the main venue for the inaugural Thailand World Pro Am tournament in 1993 and the Max Wexler design blends with the natural terrain of the surrounding hills to provide a layout which is enjoyable to golfers of all standards. Water hazards feature at regular intervals.

Thousands of brightly colored bougainvilleas add to the natural beauty and the back nine provides some tremendous views of the Gulf of Thailand. The greens can be fast with some very tricky borrows.

A short drive just outside of town brings you to the spacious resort of Palm Hills.

An enormous amount of time and money has been invested in the last few years and it is reflected in the excellent condition it has attained, there are almost 30 lakes that are intertwined with the generously wide fairways. There is an abundance of beautiful landscaping throughout and at certain times of the year the course is enveloped in the exotic fragrance of the blooms from the frangipani tree-lined fairways. The greens can be some of the fastest in the area and are a good putter's dream if they can position themselves correctly on the undulating greens.

This is a complete sports resort as there are two clubhouses. One caters to the enormous Sports Club which has a very large swimming pool and outdoor tennis courts. Inside are the badminton, squash, ping pong and snooker facilities. This makes this an ideal family resort where an entire day can be occupied to its fullest.
