Sedayu Indo Golf

Unlike Thailand and Vietnam, there aren’t that many new golf course developments in Jakarta. But if you are looking for a newer set up for a refreshed experience at a newer, prime condition and manicured golf course, you will find it at Sedayu Indo Golf course. Better still, the course is located just 15-20 minutes from the Jakarta International Airport (CGK), away from the maddening traffic of the city, conveniently allow tee-offs immediately after landing at the airport, or just prior to a departure.

The golf course is designed by Nicklaus Design as a ‘hybrid-links’ course. Perhaps a “man-made links course” puts of some golf purists, Sedayu Indo course delivers the ‘sleight of hand’ to create a memorable experience on the links-like holes. The gentle sea breezes that keep temperatures reasonable among these holes. The best links holes make their way around the island and have views of the Java Sea. Deceptively pretty pot bunkers dot the fairways and landing areas are unique and add to the challenges.

Due to the use of Paspalum Supreme grass, the tee boxes and fairways are always pristine and great to hit from, but the greens tend to be a little slower than most. Don’t let that negate all the other positive experiences, just put it a little firmer!
