Palm Resort Golf & Country Club

Located near the Senai Airport, Palm Resort Golf & Country Club is a premier golf destination with three distinctively individual 18-hole championship courses designed by Hiromasa Inagawa and a spectrum of facilities for sports and recreation. The award-winning Palm Resort Golf & Country Club was voted No. 1 in Johor by Golf Malaysia Magazine in 2001/2002 and No. 2 Best Golf Resort in Asia in 2002 by Asian Golf Monthly Magazine. 

The three 18-hole championship golf courses - the Allamanda, Cempaka and Melati at Palm Resort have been named after the flora from Malaysia.  The Palm Resort site covers 800 acres of rolling hills and picturesque lakes. Each course features an abundance of landscaped gardens and natural flora. The fairways are often flanked by water and large bunkering is a factor both from the tee and around the greens.

Allamanda Course
Designed as a “Resort Course”, it is a favourite course for play featuring breathtaking scenery of water features, daunting sand bunkers, and carefully-manicured Tifdwarf greens hidden amongst verdant landscaping. The fairways and roughs are severely undulating in places, and well-guarded which can pose challenges towards securing a victory. It embodies 11 holes of water and two signature holes represented by No. 2 and No. 15.

Cempaka Course
Playing this championship course demands full concentration. The Cempaka measures 7,156 yards from the pro tees, which requires skill in assessment and execution. More intimidating is the number of severe doglegs, narrow fairways, 9 holes of water and more than 60 sand bunkers together with the winding Serangoon fairways that would daunt any seasoned golfer. The wide expanse of undulating Bermuda greens, however, would provide an advantage to experienced green readers.

Melati Course
A more open course, the Melati is carpeted with expansive Tifdwarf greens complimented by neat Serangoon fairways. It plays as a links course with a ‘first tee only’ start and is the longest of the three courses at 7,205 yards from the black tees. Expect the challenge to be a drawn-out affair with the blue tees measuring 6,669 yards, the white tees at 6,170 yards and the red tee at 5,601 yards. Further there are 35 sand bunkers and a total of 6 holes of water to conquer.
