Vinpearl Golf Nam Hoi An
About
Excellent links-style course thats well worth the trip
Located on attractive coastline just an hour south of Da Nang, and recipient of the accolade of Best Golf Resort in Asia Pacific at the 2019 Asian Golf Awards, Vinpearl Golf Nam Hoi An is an international-standard 18-hole golf course set on an undulating landscape of rolling dunes, natural vegetation and rugged, hilly terrain. A links-style affair of jagged, white sand, pristine Paspalum turf and plentiful water features, it's been attracting rave reviews since opening in 2019.
The course is beautifully framed by trees, the wispy casuarinas by the ocean giving way to deciduous trees as the course plays further inland, with rugged sandy waste areas and water on more than half the holes ensuring that you're always kept on your toes.
After a fairly gentle opener, the 2nd is a short, doglegging par-4 whose generous fairway is dotted with bunkers and bordered by a lake to the left. Nonetheless, a good drive should see you off to a strong start before the course starts to toughen up, notably at the 5th, a long par-5 with a narrowing fairway that will have you playing your approach at right angles over water to reach the hidden green.
The 6th is a driveable par-4, but no less than 10 bunkers mean the percentage play is probably to lay up for an easy par, especially with water lurking to the right. More water is in play on the striking par-5 that follows, a forced carry off the tee giving way to a narrowing fairway that wraps around a second lake on the opposite side; attempting to reach the green in two is a risky business, with a cluster of sand traps lying in wait on what would otherwise be the optimal line.
Sand again dissuades all but the longest hitters from taking the tiger line off the tee at the 10th, a long par-4 that snakes through the trees, and another cluster of bunkers is ready to ensnare anyone optimistic enough to go for the green at the long par-5 15th in two.
The closing trio of holes are particularly good, the 16th a very long par-4 with a green set to the right of an imposing lake, the 17th an attractive par-3 with bunkers either side of the putting surface, and the last a very long par-5 whose fairway is repeatedly narrowed by encroaching trees as it arcs to the right en route to a green guarded by a heft bunker complex.
As one would expect from an award-winning golf resort, Vinpearl is home to excellent facilities, including a luxurious, modern clubhouse, with stylish locker room, restaurant and bar. You could easily spend many days at Vinpearl Golf Nam Hoi An enjoying the golf and resort, which makes it an ideal stop on any golf holiday in Da Nang.
Reviews
Nice course in good condition but they could make the experience better
Nice course in great condition. Lots of bunkers and sandy rough areas which are challenging if going off the fairways. greens Ok. Biggest frustration was no carts on the fairways and how many times the caddie has the wrong club when you are 80 yards from your cart…. This was enough of a frustration to avoid me playing here again. Caddies were nice enough and tried to help but not super knowledgeable…. Little bit disorganised on arrival but eventually got there - driving range area is good.All around great experience.
Course was in great shape. Golf club was very nice with variety of food selection (the Korean Ramen and Kimchi was awesome). However, the locker room was the best, especially after a round in the mid 90s with high humidity. The shower and bathroom amenities (tooth brush/paste, razor/face cream, comb, and shampoo/body wash) was much needed and appreciated! Would golf at Vinpearl again, if in the neighborhood.Excellent. I would recommend this course and the caddies without hesitation
Challenging without being demoralizing. I’m a relatively new golfer (6 years) and was paired with a low handicapper but the course seemed adequate challenge to him and not at all demoralizing for me. I had a great game and enjoyable day.Course Info
