Playing Golf in Bali - Everybody is welcome

Each golf course in Bali has its own unique charm and challenges but all are of international standard and welcome players of all skill levels to compete and have fun. Golf junkies and beginners of all ages will appreciate the friendly caddies, the patient teachers and the comfort of the modern club house services and facilities. Some people visit the club houses to enjoy a nice meal in a pretty setting and leave without even hitting one golf ball.

Bring the Family

Bali is more than just a great golf holiday destination; there are many reasons our tropical island keeps earning the title of one of the best holiday islands in the world. There are so many fun activities, unique experiences and beautiful accommodation for your friends and family to enjoy. White water rafting, canyoning, surfing, day cruises to nearby islands are only a few of the activities we think you should not miss. And we should mention the food. Bali has award winning fine dining restaurants as well as the highest concentration of healthy food options. This all makes it very easy for you to combine your game of golf with a family holiday.

Where to play Golf in Bali

Try them all! Although five of the six golf courses are located in the south of Bali, each of them has its own personality and unique challenges. Looking at the map, you may think the golf course up north of Bali is a bit far out, yet it rewards with a stunning setting that is truly unique. Picture yourself swinging your clubs inside a volcanic crater. No need to worry about any lava eruptions; the volcano is very much asleep. We even recommend you bring a sweater or jacket since the temperature is probably the coolest on the whole island due to its high altitude.

Where to Stay, when playing Golf in Bali

Some of the golf courses in Bali are part of a resort and offer great stay & play packages. Players traveling with friends or family often prefer to rent a private pool villa in an area with restaurants, spas and fun activities. If you stay more than 5 days we suggest you try accommodation in different parts of Bali and soak in the different scenery and explore the local culture. It is not uncommon that golf players choose more than one golf course to play while in Bali, and arrange their accommodation accordingly.

Golf Weather in Bali

Bali is beautiful all year round and the average temperature does not change that much throughout the year. The period of May till September is known as the dry season and therefore considered to be the best time to play golf although it may still include some short, intense rain showers. This does not mean you should avoid all the other months; April and October are still great months to play golf. And for those who like to take advantage of low season rates during the rainy season (November to March), you will be able to play enough golf. There are days when it does not rain at all and the sun always comes out at one moment of the day.
