The experience was heavenly pulled down by the staff.
First of the staff at the front desk is not very helpful. They don’t smile much, and then they nag at you. I was there 20 minutes before my tee-time, but the lady couldn’t manage to find my name although I told her multiple times, and when she finally found it they wouldn’t give me time for driving range, so I had to go out playing all cold.
They only take card in the pro shop, and not at the different cafes/halfway houses, and they can’t open a tab for later payment.
The caddy was very quick to say the ball was lost a looooot of times, so she could tell me to buy more. More than often I would find the ball by myself, and it was not even remotely close to out of bounds or gone.
The course itself is fine, some places very soggy in the morning because of bad rain drain.
On the website I booked the tee time through it says they advice to tip 200 THB to the caddy, which is totally fine, although the caddy insisted she had to be paid 400THB at least because of Thailand law??????
Because it took the front desk so long to find my name and booking the caddy would pick up my ball and just continue to the next hole without asking me. I find that very rude and not in okay, when it is at their fault.
I have played both with the 500THB bag and the 1000THB and honestly there is no real difference.
I would NOT recommend palm hills. I’d rather go another place where the guests are treated better.

The golf course is wonderful, challenging and a great experience which I would rate 5 out of 5. Certainly equal to or better than Black Mountain.
However, when one leaves the course and goes to the restaurant, the experience is dreadful. Absolutely no service, it was not busy but had to walk to reception twice before we got our drinks. Never bothered to order more drinks. Our food eventually turned up, the kindest thing I could say was that it was adequate but a never to be repeated experience.

Not the highest rated course in the area but we found it very good. Fairways and greens were in good condition. Bunkers could do with a bit more care.
Facilities and restaurant are good, so are caddies.
Not the best rated but best value as fees are quite a bit lower than Black Mountain and Pineapple Valley.

My first visit with my friends at Palm Hills Golf Club and everything meet our expectation. One of the best and beautiful golf landscapes in Hua Hin with friendly staffs. After play, we went to have lunch at the restaurant and everythings were perfect. The food presentation look great which i order fish & chip and chicken basket to share with my girlfriend. The restaurant service staffs and manager were also excellent, friendly and great service. Highly recommend this place. I will be back again in the future.

Played several rounds on the course. Great experience. Price and quality absolutely right. Welcoming staff. The course is relatively easy to play, although there are a number of holes with water without the major difficulties. Greens can surprise and require concentration.
Recommended and happy to play it again.

Palm Hills is just outside of the city of Hua Hin in Thailand
It's not the best golf course in the area. Other courses like Springfield are more world class. But the greens are in great shape and the course is well maintained.
The 18 hole golf course is surrounded by residential houses and villas.
Residents who live there often have golf memberships that allow them unlimited golf for a very reasonable fee.
If you aren't a member it's 2000 baht plus per round not including caddy tip (around 200 baht). That's about par for the area.
If you are interested in golf rates and info you can visit

If you are interested in life in Palm Hills, the residents have a website
Word of warning. It's pretty hot in Thailand almost all year round. Best time to golf is early morning before the sun start beating down on you. April is a bad time to be out golfing because of the heat.

Played with my wife in the beginning of April. Had fortune to have good caddies for both. But as the season had been very warm (hot) and dry there was maintance on the greens that week (day), holed and sand bed so it was just bad for putting. Liked the course and like to play it again when it is in normal state. Just bad luck for us.

I have played golf courses in this area a number of times but first time at Palm Hills. While Black Mountain and Banyan are the best in this region this course is not far behind. I liked the layout and challenge variations. The club house facilities were also quite good. I will definitely play this course again.

I have just played all 3 over the last few days, and i would put them in this order Banyan then Palm hill and last Springfield.
Banyan was a very good course to play with slopping fairways and lovely greens all in tip top condition.
Palm hill was close second another lovely course with all the view and scenery and very challenging greens that 3 of us found hard with pins positioned on the slopes.
Springfield was a bit disappointed with the course overhaul not up the the other 2 courses fairways not so good and the greens the same.
With the festival on till the end of Oct i think it's worth looking around for the deals Palm and Springfield are 1000 +300 for caddie and Banyan was 1800+300 for caddie but i went out after 3 and got it for 1300+300 and finished before the sun went down but i was by myself so got around in 3 hrs
