Designed by Roger Packard in 1993, this excellent golf course is truly absorbing, although rolling fairways and spectacular mounding surrounding the greens, many of which are hidden by the mature trees making approach shots rather tricky.

Golfers are helped by well-defined fairways to get back on the right track. Particularly outstanding is the par-three 14th in which the player tees off from a small island with the intent of landing the ball on another small island 207 yards away.

The clubhouse and facilities at the Imperial Lake View Golf Club, Hua Hin, are excellent with a truly outstanding international restaurant presenting a varied range of cuisine to the highest standards.
