Cambodia is emerging as a premium golf destination, combining championship courses with rich cultural heritage. For travel planners, it offers a unique opportunity to pair world-class golf with iconic sightseeing in both Siem Reap and Phnom Penh.
In Siem Reap, the gateway to Angkor Wat, three standout courses are located just minutes from the ancient temples. Angkor Golf Resort, designed by Sir Nick Faldo, features wide fairways, strategic bunkers, and smooth greens suitable for all skill levels. Phokeethra Country Club, a past host of the Johnnie Walker Cambodian Open, offers broad fairways and scenic water features. Siem Reap Booyoung Country Club provides an additional option with palm-lined fairways and natural streams. These locations allow travelers to enjoy a round of golf in the morning and explore UNESCO landmarks in the afternoon.
In Phnom Penh, the capital offers two more quality courses. Vattanac Golf Resort, another Faldo design, incorporates miniature versions of Angkor Wat and Bayon Temple within its East Course. It also features a West Course and a nine-hole floodlit layout for added flexibility. Grand Phnom Penh Golf Club, designed by Jack Nicklaus, is praised for its clean design and central location, ideal for short-stay programs.
