Method 2: Through Your Hotel Concierge
Most 4-5★ hotels in Da Nang and Hoi An have a direct line to Hoiana’s golf desk. Ask your concierge to book — they often have allocated tee times and can arrange transport.
Method 3: Golf Tour Operator
Package deals through operators often bundle Hoiana with other courses at a 10-15% discount per round. Best for booking 3+ rounds across multiple courses.
Method 4: Walk-In (Not Recommended)
Walk-ins are accepted if slots are available, but Hoiana is the most popular course in Central Vietnam. Peak season (Nov-Mar) and weekends sell out 2-3 weeks ahead.
⛳ Dave’s Booking Strategy: I always book tee time Hoiana Shores for 6:30 AM weekday slots — $120 for a Greg Norman links course with zero groups ahead of you. The front nine catches the sunrise over the ocean. By 11 AM you’re done, and the afternoon crowd hasn’t arrived. Weekday + early AM = best experience, best price.
What to Expect at Hoiana Shores
Arrival
Arrive 30-45 minutes before tee time. Check in at the clubhouse, collect your locker key, hit the practice range (complimentary), and meet your caddie. Hoiana’s clubhouse is the best in Vietnam — full restaurant, pro shop, locker room with showers.
The Course
18 holes, par 72, 7,122 yards from the back tees. Links-style layout on sand dunes overlooking the East Sea. Wind is a factor — club selection changes 1-2 clubs between morning calm and afternoon breeze. Best holes: #4 (par 3 over dunes), #7 (par 5 ocean views), #14 (signature island green).
After Your Round
Stay for lunch at the clubhouse restaurant — the seafood phở is the best post-round meal in Vietnam. Or head to Hoiana Resort’s hot springs (additional charge) for recovery.
