For golfers around the world, there is nothing more satisfying than playing their favourite game at beautiful, scenic and well-designed golf courses that provide a challenge to their golf skills whilst allowing them to take in the inspiring scenery and landscape.

Golf should bring inner happiness and aesthetic pleasure. Ria Bintan Golf Course provides just such a backdrop.

The team at Ria Bintan Golf Club, this year’s Winner of Luxury Lifestyle Awards in the category of The Best Luxury Golf Club in Indonesia, knows that golfers will derive satisfaction from the Ocean and Forest courses during the game and time spent at the club.  

The wonderful Ria Bintan Golf Club was designed by golf legend Gary Player, and opened its doors to their first guests in 1998.

The multi award-winning 18-hole Ocean Course unfolds next to the South China Sea, offering tantalising ocean views, challenging signature holes and picture-perfect scenery; while the 9-hole Forest Course, set amidst mature woodlands, tests the mettle with its various bunkers and fairways artfully placed. 

Ria Bintan Golf Club has been consistently named the best golf course in Asia and Indonesia over the past two decades, and played host to numerous regional events, including the annual Ria Bintan Golf Challenge, and more recently Ria Bintan Golf Carnivals in 2018 and 2019.
