Mae Jo Golf Club Resort & Spa

Mature fruit trees and northern hills frame a welcoming parkland round. The Seni Thirawat design rewards position rather than brute distance, making Mae Jo a useful contrast to Chiang Mai's hillier championship courses.

The playing experience

Make room in the day for the drive and a proper warm-up. Changes in elevation can alter how far a shot actually plays, so use the caddie's local knowledge alongside your own distance judgement. For a multi-course holiday, this setting adds a different visual and playing rhythm to flatter layouts.

Mae Jo Golf Club opened in 2004, designed by well-known Thai golf course architect Seni Thirawat, and sits within Mae Jo University’s grounds in San Sai District, about 20 minutes north of central Chiang Mai. The course winds through the university’s orchards and fruit groves, with narrow, tree-lined fairways over Zoysia grass and water hazards and doglegs shaping much of the challenge.

The greens — a mix of Korean Velvet and Bermuda TifEagle — carry pronounced slopes that reward accurate approach play. What makes Mae Jo stand out scenically is its setting: mountain views of Doi Suthep and the surrounding peaks run throughout the round, with holes 14 and 15 singled out as particularly panoramic. A modern Lanna-style clubhouse with a restaurant, spa, and on-site lodge rounds out the property.

While no major tournaments or awards are documented for Mae Jo, it’s built a solid reputation as a well-conditioned, scenic round that’s easy to reach from the city.

Before you play

Caddie required. A tip is separate unless your confirmed quotation explicitly includes it.

Tell us your preferred tee time, handicap range and any rental requirements. For a larger group, we can discuss consecutive tee times rather than assuming everyone can play in one flight.

Getting there

Your hotel location matters as much as the destination name. Share the exact pickup point so we can allow for city traffic and the time needed to warm up before your round.

Course specifications are based on the supplied course notes. Yardage depends on the tee and routing; travel time depends on traffic. We reconfirm operating arrangements when preparing your booking.
