West Lakes Golf & Villas – Experience Championship Golf in Southern Vietnam

Southern Vietnam has rapidly become one of Asia’s emerging golf destinations, attracting golfers seeking championship courses, excellent value, and authentic cultural experiences. Among the region’s finest golfing venues, West Lakes Golf & Villas has earned an outstanding reputation for its modern design, exceptional course conditions, and convenient location just outside Ho Chi Minh City.

At VeluxTour, we proudly introduce West Lakes Golf & Villas to international golfers looking for a premium Vietnam golf holiday. Whether you are planning a short golf getaway or a multi-destination golf tour across Vietnam, West Lakes offers an unforgettable experience that combines strategic golf, peaceful surroundings, and first-class hospitality.

Opened in 2018, West Lakes Golf & Villas is the first golf course in Long An Province and was designed by the internationally respected Australian golf course architecture firm Thomson Perrett, founded by five-time Open Champion Peter Thomson.

The design philosophy emphasizes strategic golf rather than sheer length, rewarding thoughtful course management, precision, and creativity. Every hole presents its own character, making the course enjoyable for golfers of varying skill levels while still providing a satisfying challenge for experienced players.

Unlike many heavily developed golf resorts, West Lakes features wide-open landscapes, expansive lakes, natural wetlands, and carefully shaped bunkers that blend seamlessly with the surrounding countryside.

As its name suggests, water is one of the defining features of West Lakes Golf & Villas.

Large lakes come into play on numerous holes, creating visually striking landscapes while demanding accurate shot placement. Rather than overwhelming golfers with excessive difficulty, the water hazards are integrated strategically to encourage smart decision-making throughout the round.

Golfers particularly appreciate:

• Wide and well-maintained fairways
• Smooth Bermuda greens
• Modern bunker design
• Beautiful lakeside scenery
• Excellent pace of play
• Strategic risk-and-reward opportunities

Every round offers a balance between enjoyment and competitive challenge, making West Lakes popular among both leisure golfers and corporate golf groups.
