Siam Country Club Waterside Course – Pattaya / Chonburi
Opened in 2014, the Siam Country Club Waterside Course is the newest addition to the prestigious Siam Country Club family in Pattaya. Designed by IMG Design, Waterside offers a slightly more relaxed, open feel compared to its sister courses (Old and Plantation), but still challenges players with clever water features, strategic bunkering, and undulating greens.
As the name suggests, water comes into play on many holes, but the course is more forgiving off the tee compared to the tight fairways of the Old Course or the dramatic elevation of Plantation.
Wide fairways, expansive greens, and stunning views across man-made lakes and natural marshlands create a visually beautiful and player-friendly championship experience.
With luxury facilities, tournament-level conditioning, and a welcoming layout, Waterside is a favorite for visitors seeking a slightly less punishing, yet thoroughly enjoyable, round at Siam Country Club.
Course Layout & Design
The Waterside Course features:
-
18 holes, par 72, stretching 7,454 yards from the championship tees.
-
A modern resort-style layout emphasizing strategic water hazards, large landing zones, and risk-reward shot options.
The course design cleverly uses lakes, streams, and bunkers to frame fairways and greens, offering both beauty and challenge without feeling overly penal.
The greens are large and multi-tiered, requiring careful club selection and precise approach play.
Signature Holes Include:
-
Hole 2 (Par 3): A picturesque island green requiring a well-struck mid-iron to avoid water all around.
-
Hole 8 (Par 5): A strategic par-5 with water guarding both the lay-up and approach to a narrow green.
-
Hole 18 (Par 4): A strong finishing hole with a large lake running along the entire right side, daring players to challenge the water for a shorter approach.
