Superb relaxing golfing resort

My husband and I stayed at a Villa for 3 nights. We enjoyed our stay very much. The accommodation was great. The staffs at the front desk were very friendly and helpful. The golf courses were nice. The only drawback is the location of the resort is far away from everything. However if one is just looking for a relaxing golfing holiday then Springfield is ideal.

Springfield is a beautiful resort. The golf course was in geat shape and our caddy Joom was lots of fun. Breakfast was great however your choices for an evening meal were limited to one restaurant. The same menu morning, noon and night. There are no snacks available (chocolate, pop, chips etc) because the resort is remote it would be nice if there were snacks available. If you are looking for a golf or spa experience this is the place for you. If you are looking for night life and evening entertainment Springfield is not the place to be. This resort is 45 minutes from Hua Hin however there is a shuttle available 3 times per day to take you to the city and it is not difficult to get a taxi back to the resort.

A 5stars hotel that has stood at test of time. It's aged but they maintained it very well. The room was spacious came along with a big jacuzzi. Breakfast was simple but good enough as compare to the rate I'd got. What I loved the most was the large and well design swimming pool. Absolutely a worth of money!

寂れた感じ

３泊をホアヒンヒルトンホテルで過ごし移動して３泊を過ごしました。まず前半をビーチリゾートで、後半をゴルフリゾートで過ごす予定としました。いい点は周囲に何もなく静かなことです。逆に歩ける範囲にレストランはありません。欠点はレストランが一か所しかなく、飽きるので長期滞在には向きません。ホアヒンに出るには３０分程度かかり、シャトルバスもありますが本数が少なくタクシーでは500バーツ以上かかります。コテージに泊まりましたが、手入れはされていますが古さはいなめない。シャワーの水温が一定せず快適ではありません。またホテル棟の部屋と比べるとホテル棟の方が新しく部屋の広さもむしろコテージより広い。コテージにはバルコニーにジャクジーがあるが周囲から丸見えで男性でも入るのがためらわれる。ゴルフコースはいいコースですがトリッキーで初心者には向きません。驚いたのはホテルゲストとビジターが同料金です。さらにスタート時間も特に優先されず、宿泊しているのに昼に近いスタート時間でした。他のホテルから送迎代込みの料金と同じなのでゴルフのために敢えて泊まる必要はないかもしれません。ネガティブな内容となってしまいましたが、ホテルスタッフはフレンドリーでした。

Great resort and golf. needs better beds!

Beautiful resort, not too big, very relaxing, staff very friendly and helpful but most lacking English but do their best to help. Huge pool and great setting, was raining most time I’m not sure if I’d be in there too much in full sun as there’s it little shade. Golf course good layout being Jack Nicklaus but not his beat by far, but worth it, can hold water if raining. Accom was great, big room for entry level with jacuzzi on the balcony. BUT the bed! It was like sleeping on plank of wood. No cushion at all. Might be ok for small people, but if your over 80kgs get extra blankets brought up to lay on. I had to fold mine over twice to sleep on. Back bad next day which didn’t help golf. It’s also a long way from city as most golf resorts are in Hua Hin. Probably only stay here 1-2nights if you want nightlife etc but they will shuttle you for free, about 20-30mins but you need to get home if after 10pm. The Lakes course is also nearby and they shuttle too. Definitely would stay here again but I’d be checking bedding arrangement. Have told them as well and they did say there may be upgrades soon???maybe. Beautiful, relaxing, great food in restaurant and well priced about $50 aud for 3 courses and a litre jug of Leo beer room service, Happy Days.

Under construction/over priced.

Nice people but the resort had an awful smell when we first checked in and the whole resort was under construction, the shower had cold water and the bed was not king bed, the price should of been much cheaper since the whole resort around us was under construction...
