🌞 Open Fairways and Laid-Back Vibes

The first thing you notice about Ekachai is its welcoming, no-pressure atmosphere. Unlike some of Bangkok’s more elite courses, this is a place where golfers come to enjoy themselves, not to chase perfect scores or worry about strict etiquette. The layout is flat and open, making it ideal for beginners, seniors, and casual players.

Despite its modest presentation, there’s still plenty of variety and character to keep things interesting. The 27-hole layout is divided into three 9-hole loops (A, B, and C), which can be combined in various ways to create an 18-hole round. This structure adds great flexibility for larger groups or repeat visitors who want to mix up their game. Wide fairways, light rough, and strategic water hazards offer a balanced experience that rewards accuracy without punishing casual mistakes. You won’t find deep bunkers or narrow landing zones — this is golf that’s meant to be enjoyed.

Ekachai isn’t just budget-friendly — it’s also one of the most approachable golf courses near Bangkok. Many travelers use it as a warm-up course before playing more difficult or famous layouts. It’s also popular for weekend groups, corporate outings, and even family golf days.

🌟 A Course – The most beginner-friendly of the three loops, with short par-4s and manageable water carries. Great for players finding their rhythm.

🌊 B Course – Adds a bit more water and bunker strategy. The par-3 5th hole is a fan favorite, with a small green protected by water short and bunkers behind.
