Chiang Mai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort Details

The Chiangmai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort is one of the most popular, universally acclaimed, and decorated golfing experiences—not just in Thailand, but in all of Asia. Also, to unanimously positive reviews on tourism sites like TripAdvisor, the Chiangmai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort has also been winning golf industry awards ever since it opened in December 2005.

Indeed, in 2005, despite the fact that it was only open for one month of the year, Asian Golf Monthly named Chiangmai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort among the "Top 3 New Courses in Asia." Very early on, experts spotted the promise in this Schmidt Curly-designed course, and the course has continued to live up to those lofty expectations in the years since.

In both 2009 and 2013, for instance, Asian Golf Monthly named the Chiangmai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort as one of the top courses in Thailand. The magazine has also voted the course "Best Value for Money Experience Golf Course in Asia" in both 2012 and 2013. In 2009, the resort earned an award from Golfing Magazine for being one of the "Top 10 Resort Courses in Asia." More recently, in the 2015 Asian Golf Awards, the Chiangmai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort was named the first runner-up in the "Best Golf Resort in Asia Pacific" category. Needless to say, the Chiangmai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort is virtually unrivaled among Chiang Mai courses in terms of recognition and praise.

With affordable rates, varying hole difficulties, beautiful views, and on-site amenities such as five-star resort villas and a fitness center, the Chiangmai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort offers something for everyone. The Chiangmai Highlands sells itself as an exotic destination, and with nearby rainforests, mountains, and temples, it truly does give an authentic Thai golfing experience. The villas do provide a more intimate and unique experience than you would find from another golf resort's more tradition hotel accommodations, and the 27-hole layout of the course provides plenty of beautiful terrains to explore to deepen the vacation getaway feel even further.

In addition to the intimate resort villas, the Chiangmai Highlands Golf and Spa Resort includes condominiums and a real estate development with a quiet and comfortable neighborhood feel. Those looking to put down roots near one of North Thailand's premier golfing destinations might consider investing in the on-site housing developments.
