Hoiana Shores is the course on Vietnam’s central coast that turns up in international rankings. Robert Trent Jones II built it on a strip of pure sand beside the sea, 8 km south of Hoi An Ancient Town, and it opened around 2020 to awards: World’s Best New Golf Course at the World Golf Awards, then repeated top-20 placings in Asia. In 2026 Golf Travel ranked it 17th in Asia. It is part of the Hoiana integrated resort, which publishes an all-inclusive green fee, so you know exactly what you will pay.

The round, in perspective.
This was Robert Trent Jones II’s first course in Vietnam, laid out as two returning nines across coastal land made entirely of sand. It plays to par 71 and 7,004 yards from the black tees, 6,554 from the blues and 6,143 from the whites, with a slope of 120 from the back. The design uses the sand itself, with dunes and sandy ground framing the holes, and several greens sit close to the shore with views of the sea and the Cham Islands. The wind off the South China Sea changes the course from day to day, so the ground game and low ball flight matter more than at the region’s parkland courses. It was ranked 86th in Links Magazine’s Links 100 in 2025 and 94th in Golf World’s world top 100 in 2023.

Make the trip work.
At ₫7.5–9 million, Hoiana is the most expensive round on the central coast. The all-in rate covers almost everything except your caddie’s tip, so compare it with the total cost elsewhere, not just the headline price. Lock in your dates before you book, given the cancellation terms. Late-2026 bookings include a branded thermal bottle, and 2027 rates add a ₫1,000,000 pro-shop credit. The clubhouse has a pro shop, a bistro and a café.
Da Nang International Airport (DAD) is about 45 minutes north. Hoi An Ancient Town is 8 km and about 15 minutes away, and Montgomerie Links and Legend Da Nang are around half an hour up the coast. The resort is in Duy Nghia, along the coastal road south of Hoi An.
New World Hoiana Hotel and New World Hoiana Beach Resort are inside the resort, and both sell stay-and-play golf packages. Hoi An itself, 15 minutes away, has riverside hotels and homestays in and around the old town, and An Bang and Cua Dai beaches have smaller resorts close to the evening restaurants.
Make a trip of it.
Montgomerie Links and Legend Da Nang’s two courses are 30 minutes north, and Ba Na Hills about an hour inland, which makes a strong four-course week from a Hoi An base. Off the course, take an evening in Hoi An’s lantern-lit old town, a boat trip to the Cham Islands, or a morning at the My Son temple ruins, about an hour inland.
Find your season.
The best months are February to May, when the coast is dry and the wind gentler. June to August is hot. The rainy season runs from September to December, and typhoons are possible in October and November, when the exposed seaside holes are at their windiest.
The official all-inclusive rate is ₫7,500,000 for 18 holes from 1 October to 31 December 2026 and ₫9,000,000 from 1 January to 30 September 2027. It covers the green fee, shared cart, private caddie, 25 range balls and a food and drink credit.
