Golf legend Nick Faldo, who captains the 2008 European Ryder Cup, recently opened the new Angkor Golf Resort course, saying: “I’m certain this golf course will become world renowned”. The first signature designed golf course in Cambodia challenges golfers of all standards, from casual weekend players to seasoned professionals. “I believe our course will turn Siem Reap and this part of South East Asia into a true golfing destination while still remaining a spiritual Mecca for tourists,” he said. Adam Robertson, Operations Manager of Angkor Golf Resort, said: “We have created something that will take golf to a whole new level in this country and the region.”
WORLDHOTELS’ Angkor Palace Resort & Spa is offering a package celebrating the opening of a new championship golf course designed by Nick Faldo at Cambodia’s premier tourist destination. The 5-star resort in Siem Reap, famed for the legendary Angkor Wat temple complex, is offering a two-night ‘Golf@The Palace’ package priced at US9 for two, including a round of golf at the new Angkor Golf Course. On offer from May 1st to September 30th, the package also includes daily breakfast, one dinner and two-way transfers from the hotel between both the airport and golf course.
