The Central Coast around Đà Nẵng and Hội An is the most popular hub for international players. This region features several courses designed by famous architects close to each other. BRG Da Nang Golf Resort and Montgomerie Links sit right along the coastal road. Further south near Hội An, Hoiana Shores Golf Club offers a links-style layout by the sea. Traveling between these courses takes less than 45 minutes from most beach resorts. The dry season from January to May offers the best playing conditions. During these months, temperatures are moderate and rainfall is low.

Southern Vietnam offers year-round play due to its warm tropical climate. Near Nha Trang, Vinpearl Golf Nha Trang sits on Hòn Tre Island, requiring a short boat transfer. In Phan Thiết, PGA NovaWorld Phan Thiet features 36 holes with views of the ocean. Further south near Hồ Chí Minh City, The Bluffs Grand Ho Tram Strip is a highly rated course built on coastal sand dunes. This course is about a two-hour drive from the city. Traffic in the south can delay your tee time, so always plan extra travel time.

Booking tee times in advance is essential, especially for weekends and winter months. Many courses require players to use a caddie. Caddies in Vietnam are highly skilled and help with yardage, green reading, and club selection. Most courses enforce a strict dress code requiring collared shirts and golf shoes with soft spikes. Metal spikes are not allowed on any modern Vietnamese course. If you plan to play multiple courses, booking a package through an agency saves money and simplifies transport.
