    Almost as good at Black Mountain, another excellent golf course
    A nice hilly track, we made the mistake of walking it in 38 degree C heat but it did not detract from the enjoyment. Excellent condition as well, the F&B offering at Banyan is probably the best of the lot in Hua Hin. Will be back soon, I hope.

    Great test of golf
    Luxurious looking golf course. All the other courses I played during my time in the Hua Hin area were dry and crispy but this course stood out for looking lush and very green. Very good condition when I played it. The greens were receptive but also very, very fast. I played in a 4 ball but the pace of play was comfortable. Nobody felt rushed at any time. The caddie I was allocated had great course knowledge. I found that it payed off to let the caddie read your puts and they rarely got the line wrong. Plenty of opportunities for a 3 putt though if you were the wrong side of the hole. Course facilities were very good. The only negative thing is that I was served raw chicken in my meal after playing.

    Great Course and Great Caddies!
    We had a great day at Banyan Golf Club. The staff were very friendly and helpful and our caddies were amazing! Lots of fun and laughs during the day. The course is beautiful and so well maintained. Definitely worth playing!

    Possibly the best course in Thailand?!
    This has to be one of the most beautiful courses I have had the pleasure of playing on in Thailand! The view is stunning, the club house is immaculate and the caddy’s are up there with the best! If you are in Hua Hin this is an absolute must visit course and club!

    Banyan yes - Pineapple Valley ( really ?)
    Banyan Tree Golf Course really delivered an exceptional golfing experience. From luxurious amenities to pristine course conditions, nearly every aspect exudes excellence. The experienced caddies enhance play, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable round. Additionally, the wonderful F&B offerings perfectly complement the experience. However, the recent name change to Pineapple Valley seems a misstep in an otherwise flawless establishment. The name 'Banyan' was synonymous with class and whilst we all understand the ownership dispute on the branding, Pineapple Valley is awful (so many other Thai names that would have represented a premium offering). Suffice to say we didn't purchase any Pineapple merchandise. Overall though, Banyan Tree Golf Course is a really enjoyable destination for any golfer seeking a top-tier experience

An absolute must when in HUA HIN, you simply wont be disappointed at all. From the moment our bus arrived on the course we were greeted with nothing but smiles, from the check in staff, to the pro shop to the caddies, even a shout out for the canteen girls who are dotted all round the course.. Yes, you pay good money to play here but honestly worth every penny and some

The course of the Blues, was challenging and frustrating at times, but hey that’s golf. Collectively we have been coming here for 10 years and the condition of this track was great and always has been great, superb fairways, excellent and challenging bunkers, and true greens that will test any level of golfer out. Certainly got hold of me

Had lunch in the main area after our round and again were not let down, service with a smile, efficient and more than cost effective, quality of the food excellent, overall selection of food was also very good

We were lucky enough today to meet the GM of Banyan after our round and got to personally say thanks to him, with him and the enormous effort of his tireless staff that this Golf Course has to be on your list of courses to play when you are in HUA HIN Thailand, as a golfer you will not be disappointed with this experience

Keep up the good work, and see you soon 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♂️

Just had a round there yesterday after my last time 5 years ago. The course is still absolutely beautiful and challenging . More importantly, the course is very well maintained...fairways and greens are still in pretty good shape. I still high recommend to those who want to have a nice round of golf in Hau Hin. This month, the green fee is 50% off as part of Hau Hin Golf festival, same as Black Mountain.

Over the past years I have played nearly all golf courses in and around Hua Hin and I do not hesitate to rate Banyan as the best course in Hua Hin. Good varied lay out, super well maintaned, excellent club house and super friendly staff/caddies makes this an absolut must play for golfers visiting Hua Hin. I will for sure be back here next time in Hua Hin.

This is simply one of the best golf courses in Hua Hin.
It’s not an easy course and you have your challenges even when you are on the on green .
We were so lucky that we had two awesome caddies on our first of 5 rounds and we booked them for all the rounds (190 + 191) . My caddie simply took over and handed me the club that she wanted me to use, it was not up for discussion and no need to as she was right on.
The caddies also had humor so it was a blast, had their language skills been better it would have made it even better.

This course is in my book ranked joint first with Black Mountain.

Course is in best condition I can recall in recent years, excellent playability and currently not crowded, making your game really enjoyable. Excellent service by email for bookings, team always very helpful and accommodating. Good discounts can be accessed. Currently are removing lots of overgrowth between some of the fairways, which will give better visibility.

White or Blue tees, both challenging and overall great playability with some very good / tougher challenges on certain holes. Shuttle service is complimentary and very helpful staff in all areas. Club has a welcoming feel, guest friendly and fantastic change rooms, showers and after game refreshments with lovely serene views. Enjoy.

We went for lunch after hitting some balls on the driving range.

My wife has shell seafood allergy and cannot take oyster sauce in her food. She clearly told the waitress not to put oyster sauce in her dish. The waitress acknowledged.

The food was delivered by a different waitress so we asked her to check no oyster sauce.

The waitress again confirmed no oyster since.

We asked the manager third time to reconfirm. He did so - no oyster sauce.

After my wife had 4 spoons, the manager came by to plead “misunderstanding” and said there was indeed oyster sauce in the food.

What about the previous 3 times? Clearly, there is lack of customer care or appreciation of how serious allergies can be.

We got lots of sorrys but I had to make sure I am near a hospital in case my wife showed reaction.

So we left immediately.

But how can anyone be sure what goes on in the food behind doors. If they are so careless about customer health, they should not be allowed to operate.
