Pineapple Valley Golf Club Hua Hin

Renowned Thailand golf course architect Pirapon Namatra, of Golf East, designed the world-class 18-hole championship golf course, celebrated for its natural and pristine surroundings.

Offering breathtaking mountain and ocean views from nearly every hole, Pineapple Valley Golf Club Hua Hin (formerly Banyan Golf Club) boasts one of the most exceptional layouts in Hua Hin. With six tee boxes on each hole, the course caters to golfers of varying skill levels, providing a more or less challenging experience based on tee selection. Strategically positioned water hazards, waste bunkers, and sand traps are thoughtfully integrated throughout the course. Native pineapple groves come into play for errant shots off the fairways, but caution is advised due to the sharpness of the pineapple plants.

The fairways, covered in lush Zoysia grass—an uncommon sight on Thai golf courses—provide a pleasant hitting surface as balls sit up nicely. Dark green Paspalum grassed tee boxes enhance the color contrast on the course and serve as an attractive decorative feature. The premium Tiff-eagle Bermuda grass used for the greens ensures fast and receptive putting surfaces, meticulously maintained year-round.

The signature 15th hole, a 139-yard par-3, stands out with panoramic ocean views extending to Singtoh (Tiger) Island in the Gulf of Thailand. Hole 12, a challenging par-5 at 610 yards, plays uphill and presents a formidable challenge even for skilled golfers. The course features elevated greens, sloping fairways, meandering creeks, waste areas, and strategically placed bunker complexes.

Pineapple Valley Golf Club's practice facilities include a grass driving range and two expansive putting and chipping greens. The contemporary Thai-styled clubhouse encompasses a full reception area, well-stocked pro shop, elegant locker rooms, and two international restaurants—one of which boasts a 5-star rating. Rain showers and luxury grooming amenities in the changing rooms add to the overall facilities.

The Terrace Restaurant, an International all-day dining venue, offers a diverse selection of Western and Thai cuisine, including daily specials. It features a walk-in wine cooler with an impressive array of fine wines. Mulligan's Pub, with its western views over the golf course and Burmese Mountains, provides an ideal setting for enjoying cold drinks and witnessing a picture-perfect Thai sunset.

While walkers appreciate the Banyan golf course, those who prefer riding can utilize golf carts equipped with onboard GPS for added convenience. Well-trained caddies handle all customary services, ensuring that every visitor has a memorable day of golfing at Pineapple Valley Golf Club Hua Hin (formerly Banyan Golf Club).

Pineapple Valley Golf Club is a golf course that should be included in all Hua Hin Golf packages.
