Tanjong Puteri Golf Resort, Village Course

The Village Course began operation in August 1994. The area initially was part of the oil palm estate with kampongs (villages) dotting the region, thus its name. These kampongs are at the fringes of holes 6, 11 & 12 with one community dating back to the 17th century. Thirteen out of the eighteen holes of the Village Course has water bordering their fairways or greens. With a blend of hills, valleys, and lakes, the Village course’s 18-holes play to a length of 6,399 meters.

Facilities at Tanjong Puteri Golf Resort include a 52-bay driving range, practice green, sizeable classical clubhouse, and four restaurants – with the Chinese Restaurant being the best of the bunch. Golf carts are mandatory on all three golf courses. However, caddies are not available, and the service on-the-course is only average.  Johor golf visitors should give the on-site resort a miss as it caters more to locals and is quite far away from the leading golf tourist areas. Overall, golfing at Tanjong Puteri Golf Resort is still good to include as part of any Johor golf holiday.
