Designed in 1996 by US golf architect, Robert McFarland, Pattavia Century Golf Club was renovated, lengthened and renamed in 2014. It now plays to over 7,100 yards from the tips. Located an hour from Pattaya and 1.5 hours from Suvarnabhumi International Airport, it is popular with locals and visitors alike. The course is set in scenic countryside on a site makes for an excellent layout. The holes are cleverly routed through jungle and up-and-down ravines. The signature hole is the 18th, where it is necessary to skirt water and negotiate a green that is sloped left to right. Pattavia is one of the best value courses in the area with the hire of golf carts optional. Caddies are enthusiastic but don’t speak great English.  The clubhouse is basic but serves most golfers needs. Pattavia is a good option for those looking for an alternative to Pattaya’s more famous courses.
