From old forest to the Gulf of Thailand in 18 holes.
Eschuri Vung Bau Golf is Phu Quoc’s newer course, opened in 2024 by Sun Group with IMG beside Vung Bau beach on the island’s north-west coast. The routing is the selling point: the front nine runs through preserved forest, and from the 10th the course opens out towards the Gulf of Thailand. The clubhouse is large for a resort course, with saunas, a 150-seat restaurant and a traditional three-door gate at the entrance lounge. It now runs floodlit night golf too, which is a sensible answer to the island’s midday heat.

The round, in perspective.
IMG designed the course to USGA standards: 18 holes, par 72 and 7,508 yards over 84 hectares, according to the club. Fairways, rough and tees are Tahoma Bermuda, and the greens are TifEagle. The first nine weaves between big old trees. The 4th, stroke index 1 at 443 yards from the black tees, has three large trees placed in the line of play, and water runs down the left of the 220-yard par-three 5th. After the turn the trees thin out and the sea comes into view. The 14th, stroke index 2, holds the longest waste bunker on the course, and VnExpress singled it out for its open sea view. Water runs the length of the 18th on the right.

Make the trip work.
Sun Group suggests teeing off between 6 and 8 in the morning or between 3:30 and 5:30 in the afternoon. A late tee time lets you finish on the coastal holes at sunset and play the last few under lights. Night golf runs from 16:30 to 21:30. The club adds a per-player surcharge for smaller groups: ₫400,000 for four to ten players before 16:30 and ₫650,000 after, while groups of 21 or more pay none. The locker rooms have saunas, steam rooms and jacuzzis.
The course is about 20 km from Duong Dong, the island’s main town, according to the club. Phu Quoc International Airport (PQC) lies further south, beyond Duong Dong, so the drive from arrivals is longer than from town. Sun Group resorts at the southern tip are further again, and hotel transfers are worth arranging in advance.
The discounted green fee applies to Sun Group properties in southern Phu Quoc, including JW Marriott Phu Quoc Emerald Bay, New World Phu Quoc, La Festa Phu Quoc (Curio Collection by Hilton) and Premier Village Phu Quoc. They are a long way from the course, so weigh the saving against the drive. Staying in Duong Dong or on Long Beach puts you in the middle, about half an hour away, with plenty of restaurants.
Make a trip of it.
Vinpearl Golf Phu Quoc, the island’s first course, is a short drive north near Ganh Dau and plays quite differently, all forest and lakes. Between rounds, take the Hon Thom cable car from Sunset Town in the south, eat at Duong Dong night market, or book a snorkelling trip to the An Thoi islands. Vung Bau beach beside the course is quieter than Long Beach.
Find your season.
Play between November and April, when the north-east monsoon brings dry, sunny weather and calm water on the west coast. From May to October the south-west monsoon brings showers, storms and onshore wind. That wind is felt most on the exposed back nine. Afternoon and night play suits the hotter months of April and May.
