The Overview

Vattanac Golf Resort East Course is one of the most culturally immersive golf experiences available anywhere in Asia — a Sir Nick Faldo design that integrates scale reproductions of Pre-Angkorean architectural structures throughout the course, creating an outdoor gallery of Khmer heritage that is as educationally extraordinary as it is visually stunning. Golfers encounter these sculptural features at tee boxes, along fairway corridors, and near greens throughout the round.

Faldo's routing on the East Course is designed to showcase these cultural landmarks at their most dramatic — elevated tee positions provide perspective on the scale of the sculptures, and approach shots framed by temple structures create photographs that no conventional golf course can rival. The golf itself is a genuine championship examination: accurate iron play is rewarded, while spray shots encounter both the sculptural features and the natural bunkering that characterises Faldo's design style globally.

As a public-access layout, the East Course provides visiting discerning golfers with a genuine Faldo design experience at Cambodia's most prestigious resort address. AGS views this course as an essential component of any Phnom Penh golf program — the combination of championship golf quality and Cambodian cultural immersion is unmatched anywhere else in the country.
