Thailand is not just a country where people go in search of all things exotic, with its history, heritage, elephants and beaches; it is also a well known destination for those who look forward to relaxing and rejuvenating and having a laid back holiday close to nature yet enjoying the best that luxury living has to offer in this part of the world.

For those who are keen on teeing off at a tropical course, one of the best spots to go to is the Santiburi Championship Golf Course in Koh Samui. It is in fact the region’s very first golf course and set amidst lush green tropical vegetation, this is indeed a great place to enjoy a round of golf during one’s vacation.

In 2006 the Bangkok Airways Open championship tournament was held in this setting and that brought the setting into the limelight. And ever since then the visitors who have been to this place have been awed by the scenic beauty of this place, the view of the Koh Phangan Island in the distance, the surrounding coconut plantations and Maenam Beach on one side; these have all added to the charm of these amazing premises.

The eighteen-hole course also has a number of streams and waterways that wind across it and provide great views of the surrounding area from almost all the holes; therefore it is not just a round of golf that any player plays here but also a relaxing walk that treats one with a number of breathtaking views and scenery.
What is more when one is done with a nice round of golf here one can step into the club house, change in to fresh clothes and enjoy a snack or a drink at the restaurant and relax.

The location can be easily accessed from a number of Samui resort or Samui hotel. However if one is looking for luxury accommodation with a spa, Anantara Bophut Koh Samui is indeed the best choice to make as it prides itself in authentic Thai hospitality and the best of the luxuries that this exotic land has to offer, for visitors who are in search of a memorable holiday.
