Hua Hin Golf Guide for the New Year Holiday
Hua Hin is a resort town favored by golfing retirees and multi-generation family travelers, and some visitors build a round on New Year's Day itself into the trip. An evening departure on December 30 or a single day of leave on the 31st sets up a 3-night trip with room for two rounds and a quiet New Year's Eve. It is also the coolest stretch of the year here, and Bangkok weekend golfers add to demand, so preferred tee times fill faster than usual — this guide introduces 7 Hua Hin courses that differ by difficulty and location.
Black Mountain Golf ClubView course details For the one round you build the New Year holiday around, start with Black Mountain Golf Club. It has hosted a number of international tournaments and is known for strong course conditioning and a higher level of challenge, so many travelers set aside a full day here during the break. Preferred tee times can book out weeks ahead in peak season, so reserve as soon as your dates are set.
Pineapple Valley Golf Club Hua Hin sits near Black Mountain and is built across former pineapple plantation terrain, a good pairing for two rounds with a different feel on consecutive days. The short transfer between the two makes it realistic to fit two rounds into a short New Year break.
For a course close to Hua Hin town, compare Palm Hills Golf Club and Seapine Golf Course. Palm Hills is a more approachable layout suited to a relaxed round, while Seapine's short transfer from town makes it easy to fit in one more round near your hotel.
If you are staying toward Cha-Am or planning the northern part of the trip, Springfield Royal Country Club is worth a look. Its distance from central Hua Hin means tee times tend to have a little more room even during peak season.
Further inland, Lake View Resort & Golf Club and Majestic Creek Country Club offer a quieter round than the coastal courses. Both are worth checking as an alternative if your first-choice tee time is already booked.
Before booking, check whether the cart and caddie are included, what the green fee covers, and whether breakfast or transfer is included. Golf-focused travelers overlap with Bangkok weekend golfers driving down over the New Year holiday, so tee times fill faster than usual and January green fees can run higher than off-peak rates. Use the current product details for final pricing and available times.
Courses here range from tournament-grade layouts to easier rounds and quieter inland options. Match the choice to your group's skill level and stamina.

Cart, caddie and breakfast inclusion vary by course. Check what is included and the January rate in the product details before booking.
If you plan to play on January 1, check course hours and the booking deadline in advance. An afternoon tee time is easier to manage than a morning one if you arrive late the night before.
