Nikanti Golf Club

Nikanti Golf Club – Innovative Championship Golf Course in West Bangkok

Nikanti Golf Club is a unique and revolutionary 18-hole, par 72 championship course situated in Nakhon Pathom province, just west of Bangkok. Designed by acclaimed Thai golf course architect Piraporn Namatra of Golf East, Nikanti offers a fresh and innovative take on golf course layout and design in the Bangkok area.

Unlike traditional courses, Nikanti features three loops of six holes each, starting and ending at the modern clubhouse. Each loop contains an equal number of par-3, par-4, and par-5 holes—two of each per circuit—providing golfers with a diverse mix of challenges and many scoring opportunities. Measuring 6,789 yards from the black tees, the course presents significant strategic challenges despite the slightly shorter length compared to some courses.

Set amid former rice paddies, Nikanti boasts varied elevation changes, mounding, and undulating fairways and greens that demand accurate shot-making. The fast, strongly contoured greens are guarded by complex bunkers, and water hazards come into play on many holes, especially the par-5s. Prevailing winds through the valleys add another layer of difficulty, impacting club selection and strategy. Nikanti rewards precision and controlled play rather than just distance, making it a favorite for both professional and serious amateur golfers.

Nikanti’s clubhouse facilities rival those of private clubs, offering first-class amenities such as full-length lockers, gourmet dining and beverages, an observation deck, and a lounge with satellite TV. Impeccable service includes 15-minute tee times for a fast pace of play, all-inclusive non-cash policies, local complimentary beverages, and two meals with each round.
