Aquella Golf & Country Club, Phang Nga

Aquella Golf & Country Club is a par-72 course of about 7,000 yards at Thai Muang in Phang Nga, 30 to 45 minutes north of Phuket airport, opened in 2021 on part of the old Thai Muang golf course. It is known for Platinum Paspalum turf wall to wall, timber-faced bunkers and a par-3 11th that looks out to the Andaman Sea. Agents sell low-season rounds from about THB 2,850 with caddie and cart, and the club's own September to October 2026 promos go down to THB 1,530; it suits golfers who want modern conditioning at a lower price than the island's big names.

The course

Aquella occupies the northern part of the former Thai Muang golf course, reusing only about 30 percent of the old land. Fairways are sand-capped, and the whole course, tees to greens, is Platinum Paspalum. The bunkers have timber (railway-sleeper) faces, which is the look people remember. Bamboo tunnels link some holes.

The club describes multiple tees and wide, contoured fairways, with canals and sand running through the layout. The signature hole is the 11th, a 161-yard par 3 with a view of the Andaman Sea. The estate, developed by Pacific Century Premium Developments, adds villas, a restaurant, a spa, a range and mini golf.

Checked 27.09.2026. Sources: aquellagolf.com/promotion (prices from the club's September 2026 promo posters), phuketgolfholidays.com and phuketgolfcourse.com agent tables for 1 Apr to 31 Oct 2026. The club labels the September to October deals a "last summer offer", so expect different prices from November.

Best months and heat

Thai Muang is on the Andaman coast, with the same calendar as Phuket. November to April is dry and in demand; May to October is the southwest monsoon, with more rain and lower prices. On Phuket, September averages about 325 mm of rain, January about 35 mm, and highs stay around 31 to 34°C all year.

Tee off before 8:00 or after 14:00. The twilight promo starts at 14:30, which fits the heat rule, but check sunset: an 18-hole round usually takes four and a half hours or more, so a late start may not finish in daylight. Bring water and an umbrella.

Getting there and how to book

By yourself. Book with the pro shop: +66 76 679 308, the golf email on aquellagolf.com, the tee-time form on the club site or Facebook Messenger (m.me/aquellagolf). Ask which promo applies to your date and confirm caddie and cart are in the price. By road, Aquella is north of the airport on the mainland side; from Patong or Kata allow well over an hour. Arrange a taxi or hired car both ways.

With us. Our hosted golf day costs from THB 31,900 per person with three guests: the host plays all 18 holes with your group, with hotel transfer, caddie, cart and lunch included. The standard golf-day courses are Blue Canyon, Red Mountain and Laguna. Aquella is not on that list, but the host can arrange a round there on request; we confirm availability and the price for your date before anything is booked.

FAQ

How much does Aquella cost?

The club does not publish a 2026/27 rack rate. In the low season (1 April to 31 October 2026) agents sell 18 holes for about THB 2,850 including the compulsory caddie (400) and cart (700). The club's own September to October 2026 promos are THB 2,000 all-in on Mondays and Tuesdays and THB 1,530 all-in for twilight from 14:30. Add a caddie tip of THB 400 to 500. Checked 27 September 2026.

How do I get to Aquella from Phuket?

Aquella is at Thai Muang in Phang Nga, north of Phuket airport. The club says 30 minutes from the airport; Golfasian says 40 and GolfSavers 45. From Laguna allow about 65 minutes, from Patong longer. There is no practical public transport, so book a taxi or car both ways.

Are there promotions at Aquella?

Yes, for September and October 2026: Sport Day on Mondays and Tuesdays at THB 2,000, and twilight from 14:30 every day at THB 1,530, both including green fee, caddie and cart. The club calls them a last summer offer, so prices will likely change from November.

Aquella or Laguna?

Laguna is on Phuket at Bang Tao, par 71 and 6,756 yards, flat, with an optional cart and an official rate of THB 5,600. Aquella is on the mainland at Thai Muang, par 72 and about 7,000 yards, cart compulsory, with agent low-season rates around THB 2,850 all-in. Laguna is closer to the west-coast hotels; Aquella is cheaper in the low season.

Is Aquella suitable for beginners?

The club says the course has multiple tees and wide contoured fairways for different levels. It is still over 7,000 yards from the back tees with water and sand in play, so beginners should play the forward tees.

Who designed Aquella?

Pacific Coast Design, with Paul Reeves and Phil Ryan. The course opened in 2021 according to Golfasian, PlanetGolf and GolfSavers.
