Els Club Desaru Coast (Valley)
Els Club Desaru Coast is home to two top-class championship courses, the Ernie Els designed 27-hole Ocean course and the Vijay Singh designed 18-hole Valley course. The Valley course is largely a new design. The Ocean course, comprising the Lakes, Coast and Ridge nines, involved a very substantial redesign of the former Desaru Golf & Country Resort layout, with two holes still bringing you directly oceanside.
The Ocean and Valley courses each have their own modern purpose-built clubhouses, as well as shuttles to and from the resort hotels. With easy access either from Johor Bahru (by road) or Singapore (by ferry), the Els Club Desaru Coast is a golfing experience not to be missed.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
