Montgomerie Links Vietnam
 |
Located along the main road between Danang and Hoi An, within Quang Nam Province, Montgomerie Links is an easy 20 minute drive from Danang International Airport and 15 minute drive to Downtown Danang. |
The 2012 Forbes Travel Guide rated Montgomerie Links as one of Asia’s ten most elite courses. It has been designed to capitalize on its close proximity to the warm, tranquil East Sea and famed Marble Mountains, which are clearly visible from various points on the 18-hole course. The over-arching design philosophy behind all of Colin Montgomerie’s designs is to work closely with natural characteristics of each site. Montgomerie Links Vietnam has many truly outstanding natural features. The sandy soil, wind-blown dunes, and indigenous vegetation combine to create the framework for a very strong links-style golf course that caters to players of all abilities and is a sheer delight to play.
Although the course doesn’t officially have a signature hole, the stunning par-5 12th is truly memorable. Playing slightly uphill to a bunker-riddled fairway, the hole is framed by the clubhouse in the background and has been described as the best par-5 in Vietnam.
BRG Da Nang Golf Resort course is situated on the fledgling central coast of Vietnam amid 150 hectares of dunescape similar to what the world’s first golf courses were carved from. Its chief feature is a 7,160-yard, 18-hole, links-style layout that was designed in the true spirit of the game — blown-out bunkers, firm and fast fairways that bleed gently into wild seaside vegetation, rugged waste areas, swales and hollows — by Australian golf legend and former world No. 1 Greg Norman.
It lies in close proximity to two of Vietnam’s most historic destinations — UNESCO World Heritage sites Hoi An and Hue — and offers breathtaking views of the Marble Mountains, East Sea and Cham Islands.

When Greg Norman checked in on the progress of the Dunes Course, in March 2010, he said: "The fact is, you'd be doing a very poor job to make a boring course out of a site like this." Certainly Mother Nature had a gigantic hand in the formation of a layout that evokes an experience often found in seaside courses in the British Isles and southeastern Australia. But make no mistake: This is Vietnam. One look at the stunning, par-3 16th hole – back-dropped as it is by traditional, long-tail fishing boats that troll the warm waters of the East Sea – is all it takes.

The golf course is set amongst stunning, rolling sand dunes with elevation changes from 4 to 11 meters. There are many natural trees on site, with casurina pine trees closer to the ocean and deciduous trees further inland to provide a nice contrast across the golf course. Native grasses, pandanus’ and other dunes type vegetation have been used to to maintain the natural beauty and ruggedness of the terrain.
