Mission Hills Phuket Golf Resort & Spa

Mission Hills Phuket is an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus design that opened in 2004 on the north-east coast of Phuket, near the airport and about 35 minutes from Patong. The site is relatively flat open parkland bordered by mangroves and the Andaman Sea, with lakes, lagoons and sandy waste areas, and several holes play over or beside the water. Notable holes include the par-3 4th with an island green ringed by white sand, the 5th that plays from an island tee to an island green, and the 481-yard par-4 12th, the longest par 4 on the course. The course plays up to about 6,800 to 7,000 yards depending on the source, with water in play on several holes and compulsory carts. Resort accommodation, a spa, driving range, swimming pool and restaurants are on site.
