Amata Spring Country Club: Lee Schmidt's Championship Test Near Bangkok
Amata Spring Country Club presents a significant challenge with a championship layout stretching to 7,500 yards.
A score is added once our review panel has played the course. Everything below is drawn from the club's own published information. See our ranking methodology.
Amata Spring Country Club was designed by Lee Schmidt of Schmidt-Curley Design, a firm recognised for its portfolio of championship courses throughout Asia. The layout stretches to a significant 7,500 yards, a length that positions it among Thailand's most demanding courses and indicates a design calibrated for high-level play.
This extensive yardage will require golfers to focus on powerful driving and precise long-iron approaches. Situated a 45-minute drive from both Bangkok and Pattaya, the club offers convenient access for visitors staying in either of these major Thai urban centres.
Golfers considering a round here should anticipate a course where distance off the tee will be a primary determinant of success.
Before you book
Amata Spring lies in Chonburi, within reach of Bangkok for a day trip rather than an overnight stay.
The club is private and access for visitors generally runs through a member or an agent, so the practical first step is to establish whether you can get on at all before you plan around a date. Fees here were checked in August 2026. We will check these figures again before the next dry season and date them here when we do.
