Panya Indra Golf Course

Holes 18 | Par 72 | Length 6639 m / 7260 y | Type Parkland | Architect Ronald Fream

Located in the Bangkok district of Thailand, Panya Indra is a superb 27-hole layout that will keep you on your toes throughout. The course is one of just some of the courses owned by the Panya Group and it is not hard to see why it is one of the best courses in the Bangkok region.

Three  separate championship 9 hole courses create two distinctive 18 hole routes. The design of the courses was undertaken by American Ronald Fream and he has done a wonderful job creating a testing yet enjoyable golf course for all level of player. Each of the loops is distinctive yet merge perfectly together to create a superb course.

The Lagoon Course is aptly named and has the largest amount of water of the three loops, but the other two courses are not lacking in the water hazard department.

On the Lagoon loop you are faced with a stern 3608 yard challenge, gently rolling fairways are flanked by water on all but the 4th hole putting an emphasis on finding the fairways.

A superb hole is the 6th. A par four of 388 yards from the back tees, the golfer faces a decision from the tee, shorten the hole and play to the almost island fairway to the left setting up an approach over the lake or play safe to the right of the fairway and water leaving a more straightforward yet longer approach into the green. Bravery here is definitely rewarded, but anything offline is punished severely.

The second loop of nine, The Palm Course of sometimes referred to as the B course is another example of intricate design, with superb bunkering and water hazards framing the almost perfectly contoured fairways splendidly.

Although not as much water as the Lagoon course, the water when present makes the golfer think carefully about how they approach each hole and at 3652 yards the course is the longest of the three.

The ninth is a superb example of golf course design. A gentle dogleg from right to left the ninth hole plays shorter than the card suggests, but take on too much of the dogleg and you could end up in the drink. Play too safe and you will be left with a long second into the small, undulating green.

Hole four is probably the signature hole at Panya Indra. A short par three that requires accuracy and the correct club selection. From the tee you must find the well protected island green, a large bunker to the right offers a bail out area, but par is not guaranteed on this hole.

The final 9 holes, Loop C or the Garden course offers perhaps the most landscaped areas of the course with beautiful flowering acting as a backdrop to the holes.

Again, Fream has made perfect use of “clover” style bunkering and water features to add dimension and shape to the holes and in doing so has introduced diversity.

You are introduced to The Garden Course in a relaxed manner with two straightforward holes, but the closing four holes quickly make you realise you have to fight for a good score. The sixth is a long par three played across the corner of the lake, with more of the lake coming into play the further back you are. The seventh is a short par four which requires accuracy to find the well protected fairway with longer hitters likely taking the shorter route to the left.

Hole 8 is a short par 5, which for many will be reachable in two. A good drive down the right edge of the fairway will leave a short approach over the water. This hole is probably easier for the big hitter as they will not have to lay up to the left of the lake with their second. A superb chance of birdie for those that are brave enough to keep close to the water from the tee.

The final hole again requires a good drive to cut over the corner of the lake which will leave you with a mid-iron into the green. Anything short right will almost certainly find a watery grave.

Panya Indra is in year-round good condition and for those wishing to dabble in night golf it offers the opportunity to try. The greens are generally small and undulating making this a good putters paradise but a nightmare for those who are not so comfortable on the greens.

The facilities are of a high standard as you would expect from a club so close to the city.

Panya Indra Golf Course

Slightly slow play but not terrible

Reviewed by ; on
Play was a little slow and annoyingly they dont seem to let you play through but overall it wasn't a horribly slow pace. The course itself was fantastic, big greens in great shape. Few spots under repair but that just allowed me to get a free drop, which was an improvement :) The facilities are extremely nice, very nice showers/locker rooms, plenty of places to get f&b throughout the course. Driving range is pretty unique as you hit into a lake. Lots of water and sandtraps on the course make for a challenging time. All in all, great course, good value and I'll be back.

Panya Indra Golf Course

Second time was even more memorable than the first!

Reviewed by ; on
I really enjoyed playing at Panya Indra, but please be warned that if you are an early tee time it seem you'll likely be pre-committed to playing the A/B course. I think this is because of the flood lighting installed on the first stretch of A, a necessity for teeing off in the early pre-dawn hours. Conditions of the fairways and greens were great! Zero complaints about the course; it's both difficult and fun, along with being picturesque. Very cool undulating fairways and greens all throughout the course. Caddies (regular or "pretty") are consistently awesome! The one failure my party experienced this time was related to the starter: I specifically asked for first tee time (if possible) for my 2-player group. Panya Indra confirmed that was OK, 0608, first out. We get to the course, pay up for cart & caddy, and head to the starter. There's a little snag; they misunderstood and thought we'd be walking. So, the caddies grab carts and once we're ready to go it's now about 0605. We then see two 3-player parties head towards the first tee box. OK, maybe they're just prepping? Nope! Both groups teed off and proceeded to walk the course. End result: We wait an average of 7-8 minutes on every single hole until 13, get waived through one of the groups, then wait 5-6 minutes each of the remaining holes. Finished in 3 hours, 55 minutes. Couldn't get into any rhythm and my score tanked so much I didn't bother to keep track for the last 6 holes. I wouldn't be upset if I was playing in a 4-some or if we had been walking, too, but how does it make sense to OK 3x2 walkers before 2 carts, before the 3x2's start time? Despite the course itself being excellent, this tainted it for me and I probably won't be repeating Panya Indra unless someone else really wants to go.
