Vietnam’s Golf Coast tees off
Vietnam Golf Coast – a new partnership of golf and beach resorts in the central coast city of Danang – was launched this week.
The consortium’s web hub, www.vietnamgolfcoast.com, has also gone live.
The establishment of the Vietnam Golf Coast links the country’s top new courses with luxury hotels and beaches.
The founding members are: 

Montgomerie Links Vietnam: Designed by sitting European Ryder Cup Captain Colin Montgomerie and opened in August 2009,
Danang Golf Club: Crafted by Greg Norman and opened in May 2010, the Dunes Course at Danang GC is “as close as you’ll come (in Asia) to the UK’s great links courses,” according to Golf Digest Singapore.
The Nam Hai: An all-villa luxury resort opened in 2007.
Life Resort Danang: The region’s newest 5-starhoterl set on five hectares fronting Bac My An beach.
Golfasian Vietnam, the official tour operator of the Vietnam Golf Coast.
Golfasian CEO Mark Siegel said, “ I think Danang Golf Club and Montgomerie Links are the best two courses in the country.
“There are several excellent courses in Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, but they’re all at least an hour from downtown hotels or the airports.
“The courses in Danang are just so convenient – 15 minutes from the airport and across the street from The Nam Hai and Life Resort Danang.
Danang, where a new international airport will open in 2011, has international flights from Singapore and Guangzhou, in addition to regular connecting service from both Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City.
Shanghai Airlines will soon commence a twice-a-week charter service from its hub, Shanghai, to complement those Vietnam Airlines has scheduled from Hong Kong, starting in September.
