If you want more than one round across a three-night New Year trip, start by comparing Phoenix Gold Golf & Country Club. It runs multiple courses on the outskirts of Pattaya with a wider range of tee times, though early January is peak season, with green fees at their highest and popular tee times filling first — book your course and time slot ahead.
To cover the staple rounds of a Pattaya golf trip, compare Laem Chabang International Country Club and Siam Country Club Plantation. Laem Chabang, toward Chonburi, is a dependable base course with firm conditions through the dry season, while Siam Country Club Plantation is consistently well regarded for its design and conditioning, suiting golfers who want one polished round over the holiday. Both tend to see tee times fill earlier than usual during peak season.
For a photogenic round or a bigger challenge, look at Chee Chan Golf Resort and Siam Country Club Old Course. Chee Chan Golf Resort plays against the cliffs of Khao Chee Chan, while Siam Country Club Old Course has hosted tournaments and suits golfers after a more demanding layout. Both fill peak-season tee times quickly, so secure your slot early.
For a larger New Year golf group, consider Pattana Sports Resort. Its combinable nine-hole loops make it comparatively easier to line up tee times for several players at once.
For a change from flat courses, or a round close to your hotel, compare Khao Kheow Country Club and Pattaya Country Club. Khao Kheow Country Club is built into mountain terrain with real elevation change, while Pattaya Country Club sits close to town, keeping transfers short if you plan to head to the Beach Road countdown after your round.
Before booking, confirm whether cart and caddie are included, what the green fee covers, and the peak-season cancellation or change policy. New Year is a busy period for Korean golfers travelling to Thailand for winter golf, so green fees run higher than usual and popular tee times can close out weeks in advance. Use the current product details as the final reference for rates and available times.
