Blue Canyon Country Club Golfing. Simply The Best. The Ultimate Golf Retreat Designed by Nature.

Welcome to Blue Canyon Country Club
Blue Canyon Country Club, the ultimate golf retreat, has welcomed guests from all over the world since its inauguration in 1991. The world-championship Canyon Course is ranked as one of the most distinguished and prestigious golf course in Asia by Hertz International and Fortune magazine. With the success of two Johnnie Walker Classics (EPGA) in 1994 and 1998, and the Honda Invitational (APGA) in 1996, Blue Canyon's pre-eminence in golf is unsurpassed.

The Club is honored to present our guests with another masterpiece, the Lakes Course, Crafted in 1999, the abundance of water hazards strategically positioned on 17 of the 18 holes makes the lakes Course an equally challenging golfing option as the spectacular Canyon Course, and a breathtaking complement to our world-class resort.

"Absolutely magnificent course... they've got the most beautiful setting, using the natural landscape to build holed around it. (As for the Clubhouse) you won't find better anywhere in the world..." food is good, everybody is friendly... how can you beat it!" - Gary Player

"One of the best I have ever played on." - Tiger Woods, Johnnie Walker Classics 1998 Champion.

Blue Canyon Country Club, located at Mai Khao on 730 acres of prime land, is recognized as being amongst the most exclusive golfing establishments in the region. Cradled in a secluded, verdant valley, against a magnificent backdrop of majestic mountain views, the Blue Canyon Country Club basks in Phuket's tropical sunshine.

The Club is just minutes away from Phuket International Airport and the beautiful Nai Yang Beach and about 29km from Phuket Town.

Blue Canyon Country Club offers you two 18 holes championship golf courses, a 49 bedroom Golfers' Lodge and condominium apartment for sale and for long or short term lease.

Developed in 1988 from an old tin mine and rubber plantations, both the golf courses are molded around the existing canyons and rubber plantations, with minimal disruption to the natural landscape. It was the belief of many that the land was made for a golf course.

In an age when many of Asia's new golf courses are little more than man-made monstrosities, the Blue Canyon developer and course designer, Mr. Yoshikazu Kato, went out of their way to ensure that the interference with nature was minimal.

In doing so, only 250,000 cubic metres of earth was moved at the Canyon Course. The average for most modern courses is between two and three million. To have moved any more earth and tampered with the rubber plantation and tin mine would have been an environmental disaster. Therefore, what has been created is a masterpiece of golf course design with spectacular, sometimes daunting, natural hazards, plus acres of lake accentuated by towering trees.

Since Blue Canyon Country Club opened its doors in late 1991, the Canyon Course has played host to the 1994 and 1998 Johnnie Walker Classics and the Honda Invitational in 1996, welcoming world ranked players the likes of Tiger Woods, Greg Norman, Ernie Els etc.

As a world championship golf course, the Canyon Course has also won international awards namely the, "Asian & Pacific Golf Course of the Year 1999" by Hertz International Golf Travel Awards - London and  the "Top 500 Best Holes in the World" for its par 3, hole 17th.

Following the success of the challenging Canyon Course, the Lakes Course opened in 1999, offering a whole new challenge to the game of golf with water hazards on 17 out of 18 holes. It is a mixture of water-filled canyons created by open cast mining with its natural land flow left relatively unchanged.

Its front 9 holes run through a landscape of lakes and natural canyons, whilst the back 9 weaves its way through scenic lakes and soft whispering woodlands of rubber trees. Gentle winds at 10mph constantly add a challenging dimension to any game. 

The Lakes Course distinctly features one of the largest greens and is already reputed to have one of the best finishing holes in this part of the world.

Its panoramic mountain views across many lakes provides a memorable golfing environment for golfers. At Blue Canyon, its not only the course which leaves an impression. The clubhouse offers Thai, Japanese and Continental cuisine, and the spacious opulently designed changing facilities, Jacuzzis, steam room, sauna and massage facilities, are without equal in the Asia Pacific. The Blue Canyon Golf School, tennis courts and swimming pools offers the perfect golfing retreat with a internationally reputed management and service standards one can only find in the exotic surrounds of Thailand.

In fact, Blue Canyon Country Club was recently awarded the "Asian & Pacific Golf Resort of the Year 2000" by the Hertz International Golf Travel Awards. In short, you can be assured of a traditional warm welcome from our charming and attentive staff. Blue Canyon Country Club - the Ultimate Golf Retreat, warmly welcomes you to Phuket.
