Hoiana Shores
Golf Club

"Vietnam's first true links experience, sculpted from the East Sea's edge." — Robert Trent Jones Jr.

What is Hoiana Shores Golf Club?

Hoiana Shores Golf Club is a premium championship links golf course located in Vietnam. Designed by Robert Trent Jones II, this elite facility operates as a strict Par 72 layout, stretching to a formidable 7,309 Yards from the championship tees.

Engineered for international touring groups, the course demands precise shot-making and strategic course management. Asia Golf Specialists (AGS) officially partners with Hoiana Shores Golf Club to guarantee priority tee time access, VIP caddie requests, and seamless private ground transportation from your luxury basecamp directly to the first tee box. As a highly regulated facility, walk-in tee times for large international groups are notoriously difficult to secure during the high season (February through May).

According to internal logistical data, AGS recommends incorporating this specific course into a wider multi-day itinerary to perfectly balance coastal links exposure with distinct links challenges. By booking through the AGS Local Guardian network, players bypass public booking queues and experience an uncompromising, fully managed luxury golf experience.

The Overview

Hoiana Shores Golf Club stands as one of the most significant golf openings in Southeast Asia in recent years. Designed by the legendary Robert Trent Jones Jr., it is the first course in Vietnam to sit directly on the East Sea, delivering a true links experience in a tropical setting.

The 18-hole layout winds through natural coastal dunes near the UNESCO World Heritage site of Hoi An, offering spectacular panoramic ocean views from nearly every hole. The course demands respect for the wind, rewarding players who think their way around rather than overpower it.

Part of the prestigious Hoiana integrated resort, the club features world-class clubhouse facilities, a luxury pro-shop, and a strategic practice facility. For discerning golfers seeking the authentic links challenge in an exotic location, Hoiana Shores is unmissable.
