Played Loch Palm the day before we played Red Mountain. Beautiful setting with LOTS of water but generous fairways and excellent directions from the caddies keep you away from a sinking ball. Forgot the number, but one par 3 is a highly elevated tee to a tricky green with water on 50% of one side and heavy bunkers the other... More

Green fee alone of nearly £100 and the club hire very expensive at £30 forsomeverybasic clubs , needed stiff shaft on driver but all they had was flex , course not overall long and greens could've better , despite spending all the money on green fees and club hire, pro shop charged full price on gloves and balls !!!!!!!!

I can't really fault the course in any way. Picturesque view, great caddies, superb greens. One of the few greens where it bites quite a bit. Most of the golf courses I play on the ball will land on the green and roll, due to lack of skill on my part I must say, but this one checks and occasionally... More

Again I have played golf at Loch Palm on a number of occasions and I would recommend this course to anyone who visits Phuket and enjoys their golf. The club house facilities and changing rooms have all been updated and this now raises their game and enables them to compete with the other great courses on the island. Quite a... More

This golf course will challenge the low handicap golfer as well as providing a great game for the high handicapper. The course is very beautiful and for those who do not like to walk the course there are buggies, driven by the ever present attractive local caddies.

Played 18 holes with family and really enjoyed experience. Driving range onto lake was novel, and fairway conditions and greens excellent. Caddies knowledgeable and helpful. Clubhouse top class changing and restaurant facilities.

Just played today at Loch Palm. Decided to walk as when played Mission Hills on Tuesday we felt the caddies there really rushed us round and you didn't get to enjoy the scenery and interaction with your fellow golfers. We had 2 fabulous caddies, Pen (no.139) and Ta (no.035), who really joined in the fun, knew their stuff on the... More

I rank this higher than Blue Canyon. Easy club-house, simple check-in process and friendly caddy. Course is relatively comfortable. It was built on an old tin mine and hence most holes have water hazards. Will return.

Loch Palm is a fun course to play. Built around several lakes, the course has a good variety of hole design. The clubhouse facilities are excellent and the caddies of high standard. Well worth a round.

This course is an abolute delight. Hazards and water will penalise the errant big hitters. The clever players wiill be rewarded, The staff and caddies have the most delightful, welcoming, friendly. Play here more than once and they all seem to know you. The restaurant offers tasty food. I disliked nothing.
