Laguna Phuket Secures Golf World Top 100 Resorts Ranking

10 January, 2026

Laguna Phuket has once again secured its place among the world's most prestigious golf destinations, retaining its position in the coveted Golf World Top 100 World Resorts ranking. This recognition highlights the resort’s ability to maintain high-quality standards amidst a fiercely competitive global landscape.

Spanning over 1,000 acres along the pristine Bang Tao Bay, the integrated resort is a cornerstone of Southeast Asian leisure, blending professional-grade sports facilities with luxury lifestyle offerings.

A Hub for Professional Excellence

The resort's reputation as a premier golf destination is anchored by its 18-hole championship course and the PGA Golf Academy—the only facility of its kind in Southeast Asia. This commitment to the sport’s development was further evidenced by its role as a host for the annual GBI PGA Members' International Conference.

The conference brought together global industry leaders and innovators to discuss the future of the sport, focusing on:

  • Cutting-edge coaching methodologies and player development.
  • Innovative technology and sustainable turf management.
  • Strategic club management and the integration of AI in golf operations.

Beyond the Fairway: The "All-Encompassing" Experience

Laguna Phuket’s success in the rankings is attributed to its "all-encompassing" identity, which merges professional golf with a diverse array of upscale amenities.

  • Accommodation & Transport: The destination features six prestigious hotels with over 1,400 rooms, connected by a complimentary shuttle and boat service.
  • The New Rava Beach Club: A recent addition to the resort’s portfolio is the Rava Beach Club, currently the largest beach club in Thailand, offering an upscale social scene directly on the shores of Bang Tao Beach.
  • Wellness & Dining: Guests have access to award-winning spas, wellness facilities, and a wide variety of international dining options.

"This acknowledgement reflects Laguna Phuket’s position as a unique and comprehensive golf destination," said Paul Wilson, Managing Director at Laguna Phuket. "It is our capability to merge the sport with upscale accommodation and lifestyle experiences that genuinely characterises our identity."

Located just 25 minutes from Phuket International Airport, the resort remains a primary draw for international travelers and golf enthusiasts seeking a seamless blend of sport and luxury.
