Crystal Bay was designed by Thai Takenaka and opened for play in 1984.  Situated 45 minutes from Pattaya and 1.5 hours from Bangkok, this 27 hole course is one of the mid-tier golf courses in the Pattaya region. A pleasant course to play and quite short by modern standards, it is ideal for the mid to high handicapper - pars and birdies are available here on a good day. The clubhouse is very dated with an average restuarant serving basic Thai food, but no view from the clubhouse. Golf course conditions vary depending on the time of year so check conditions before booking.
