The developer's choice of the site was excellent - beautiful undulating hillside country, with an existing cover of varied eucalyptuses, mature bamboo and low shrubbery. The course is quite elevated, with attractive distant sea hill views. It usually has cooling breezes off the sea.
The massive clubhouse is a cavernous marble confection with internal pools and cascading waterfalls dominating the landscape.Beautifully landscaped with eucalyptus, bamboo and bushes, the Phoenix Golf and Country Club utilizes wooded, rolling terrain on its three nines - - Ocean, Lake and Mountain.
Although fairways are narrow, the greens are most spacious and the middle nine is one of the most playable in the kingdom due to its large amount of water hazards. Hole 17 - - a very tough par-four - - dog-legs around the lake and has left some of Asia's most experienced golfers in serious trouble. Excellent clubhouse utilities and a sports complex make this one of the best courses on the Eastern Seaboard.
