Sungai Long Golf & Country Club sits in the Bandar Sungai Long township, on the Cheras–Kajang side of Kuala Lumpur, about 23 km south-east of the city centre. It opened in 1992 as the first Jack Nicklaus Signature course built in Malaysia, and a 2013 renovation brought new greens and drainage. It is a practical choice for a visitor staying in KL: close enough for a morning round and back in town by lunch, with a clear booking route and a published all-in rate.

The round, in perspective.
The course plays to 7,015 yards, par 72, from the back tees; the club tees measure 6,171 and the front 5,708. Where2Golf describes stylish bunkering, large sandy waste areas and good-sized, well-defended greens, with four ponds that flank three fairways and come into play on two of the par threes. The 2013 work replaced the putting surfaces with TifEagle Bermuda grass and upgraded drainage and irrigation, which helps after the heavy afternoon rain the Klang Valley often gets. Deemples gives a course rating of 71.3 and slope of 131.

Make the trip work.
Book a Monday for the lowest listed rate, or any weekday for a quieter course; at weekends visitor times are limited and the price rises by more than RM100. Tee off soon after dawn: Kuala Lumpur afternoons regularly bring storms. Two Deemples reviews from 2026 say the club no longer has a working driving range, only a couple of hitting nets, so plan to warm up elsewhere. Golfasian lists a pool, gym, squash, tennis and snooker at the clubhouse if you are waiting out a storm; one reviewer found the buggies, showers and lockers dated.
Golfasian puts the club about 15 minutes’ drive from central Kuala Lumpur outside rush hour; peak traffic on the Cheras roads can double that. Grab cars are easy to find for the trip out and back. Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KUL) is the main gateway, and the MRT Kajang line serves stations in Cheras if you combine rail with a short taxi.
Most golfers stay in central Kuala Lumpur, around Bukit Bintang or KLCC, and drive out for the round. If you prefer to be closer, Kajang and the Cheras townships have business hotels, and the Bandar Sungai Long area has serviced apartments near the university campus. Putrajaya, about 30 minutes south, offers quieter hotels by the lake.
Make a trip of it.
Saujana Golf & Country Club in Shah Alam, home of the Palm course that hosted the Malaysian Open, is the natural pairing on the opposite side of the city. Royal Kampung Kuantan, a planters’ course from about 1910 north-west of KL, makes a historic contrast. Off the course, Kajang is famous for satay, and central KL has the Petronas Towers and the food stalls of Jalan Alor.
Find your season.
Kuala Lumpur is hot all year, with highs around 32–33°C. The two inter-monsoon periods, roughly April and October to November, bring the most thunderstorms. January to February and June to August are generally drier. Rain usually falls in the afternoon, so morning rounds are the reliable option in any month.
