Pattaya Country Club is spread out on 800 acres amidst gently rolling hills and is one of the closest courses to Pattaya. The golf course is suitable for golfers of all abilities.

Several holes feature dual fairways forcing the golfer to decide between more challenging or safer routes to the greens. The greens are usually well guarded by bunkers, and many are undulating.

Unlike many other Pattaya area courses, water comes into play on only one hole, the 17th par 4, at Pattaya Country Club. On the other hand, with the vast land area, many holes are located far away from one another. The layout makes for long walks from greens to the next tees and gives rise to the OB areas found on many holes.

The finishing three holes, locally named 'amen corner,' are the most difficult on the course and make for some dramatic finishes or surprise scores for those counting too early on a good 18 holes.

Pattaya Country Club has been a favourite with local golfers for years and the substantial upgrade in 2015 that added a brand new clubhouse has only added to its appeal.

The new two-level abstract design clubhouse has enlarged Ladies’ and Gents’ locker rooms, shower units and changing areas. There is a large dining room with a curved glass wall overlooking the 18th green.
