Sedana Golf & Country Club is an internationally designed 18-hole golf
course and club facility within an exclusive residential community. The
course is designed by Mark F. Rathert, who believes in creating
environmentally responsible courses which blend with the natural
surroundings. Combining modern technology and strategic design principles,
the course is designed to allow players to walk through the gentle rolling
terrain over and around the strategically placed lakes, streams and sand
bunkers. The lush tropical landscape creates a beautiful view which can be
enjoyed by golfers. Golf at Sedana is both challenging to play and pleasing
to the eye. The 565 yards long hole 4 is a great par 5, where not only
distance, but certainly shot making is a must. The back nine is the more
beautiful part of the course, which generally can be considered to be a
friendly one. |

Pantai Kapuk Indah is a par 72 championship course located adjacent to the
Java Sea. It was designed by Robert Trent Jones and features gently rolling
fairways and lots of palm trees. When the wind blows from the sea, Pantai
Kapuk Indah turns into a rather difficult test for golfers of high handicap.
It's not only a long course, but certainly not an easy one from the back
tees. The friendly white tees and the accomodating ladies tee, however, make
playing this course great fun. New Zealander Frank Nobilo, in 199.., reached
top honours on this layout during the Indonesian Open. |

Klub Golf Senayan is the only city golf course in Jakarta. Formerly known as
the Kebayoran Golf Course, over a period of 35 years, Senayan became a
cornerstone of Indonesia's golfing tradition. Its downtown location makes it
a very popular course with the business community of Jakarta. The par 70
city park-type layout is renowned for its traditional "tight" tree-lined
fairways and is a good test for golfers of all levels. Unlike many of the
newer course designs, Senayan is not a mere test of strength and distance,
but a measure of accuracy and shot making. The old "cow grass" fairways have
recently been changed to Bermuda grass, while the greens are consistently
among the best in today's golf in Indonesia. The many types of mature trees
are Senayan's greatest defence. It's a great course to play and delight to
walk. |

HOLES : 18

BLUE TEE : 5,821 m
WHITE TEE : 5,364 m
RED TEE : 4,821 m
Padang Golf Jaya Ancol is set amid a landscape of swaying coconut trees and
fresh-water ponds and is situated inside the Disneyland-like Ancol amusement
Park. The 6,501 yard long course is a standard type of course and it is
known for its narrow and short fairways due to the fact that it has been
projected on a rather small land area within the Ancol Park. Because of its
narrowness and projection of some of the fairways, in combination with
strategically placed water hazards and bunkers, the course is an interesting
one to play. It resembles some of the beach-golf resorts in Hawaii.
Non-golfing members of the family will find plenty to do in the Ancol
amusement park. There's the famous Ancol Pasar Seni (Art Market), SeaWorld,
a large public swimming pool area, the Fantasy World Theme Park and two
international standard hotels. A stone throw away from the course one can
stroll along the beach of the Jakarta Bay. From Ancol boats are leaving to
the islands in the Java Sea which are known as the Pulau Seribu (Thousand
Islands). |

WHITE TEE : 6,479 yds RATING 71.3 SLOPE 131
RED TEE : 5,777 yds RATING 72.7 SLOPE 130
The Pondok Indah 18-hole layout was the first course Robert Trent Jones, Jr.
built in Indonesia. On a relatively small landspace Trent Jones showed his
magical skill as a designer by constructing the outward nine in a clockwise
direction outside of the inward nine that runs the opposite way.
The predominant feature on the course is the Grogol river, that snakes
through the course and forms an extra handicap on especially the back nine.
The gently rolling fairways, gigantic bunkers, strategically placed ponds
and some rather large greens makes playing this course challenging.
The par 4 hole #7 is the handicap stroke 1 hole on the course, while hole
#13, the 377 yards par 4, is the second most difficult hole. In 1983 Pondok
Indah played host to the World Cup of Golf. The course is located in the
posh Pondok Indah residential area next to the Pondok Indah shopping mall
and only a short car-ride away from Jakarta's business district. The course
has easy access to the new Pondok Indah toll road connecting this part of
South Jakarta with all the major thoroughfares. Because of its close
proximity to the city and the South Jakarta residential areas Kemang, Cipete,
Cilandak and Lebak Bulus the course is very popular with business people who
are able to put in a quick round of golf before they are being called for
duty at their office. Hotel Kristal is conveniently located close to the
course and offers golfers a great place to stay. From this part of town all
of the major hotels are located within a 30 to 40 minute drive. |

Destined to take its place among the world's great courses, Rainbow Hill (Bukit
Pelangi) is definitely one of Indonesia's finest golf courses. Designed by
J. Michael Poellot Golf Design Group (JMP), Rainbow Hill is located within
the majestic highlands of the Bogor region. The course takes full advantage
of a picturesque setting carefully adapting the abundant natural gifts of
the site into a spectacular golf landscape. Each fairway is carefully
sculptured into the site to create an exciting series of 18 holes, each
distincly different from the last. Holes 8, 9, 13, 17 and 18 for example,
provide astonishing visual drama. Hole 13, without any doubt, is the
signature hole.
Designed to accomodate and reward golfers of all abilities, length and power
off the tee are not the most critical elements to play well. You'll be
required to make important choices as you think your way around this course
. Finesse and quality will be rewarded, for this course encourages
initiative and the well-placed shot. No matter what you score card reads, as
you stroll from the final green you will take with you a sense of pride,
satisfaction and accomplishment, eagerly looking forward to your next chance
to play at Rainbow Hill. |

Emeralda Golf & Country Club is located some 30 minutes away from Jakarta's
busy center and has an easy access from the Jagorawi toll road. Emeralda
offers members and other players a possibility of "mix & match" of three
different 9-hole courses. The River- and Lake Course were designed by
golfing legend Arnold Palmer and they are typical of a Palmer trademark in
which nature, landscaping, and a sense of fun and playability always will be
incorporated.
Set against the stunning foothills of Mount Salak, the gently undulating
courses offer a wide variety of challenging playing conditions with lots of
water and bunkers placed at strategic places in the fairway or in front of
the green on nine out of the 18 holes. The challenge, however, will always
be determined by the amount of risk a golfer wishes to take.
The club is operated by CCA International, which owns and operates the
Mercantile Club and Mercantile Athletic Club in Jakarta amongst others.

RED TEE : 2,705 m
YELLOW TEE : 2,342 m
The Plantation Course at Emeralda is actually meant to be the front nine of
the 18-hole North Course Jack Nicklaus was asked to design. The economical
crisis in Asia, and by which Indonesia was hit in July '97, had put the
finishing of the total project temporarily on hold. The Plantation Course,
like all of the Nicklaus courses, is a testing, challenging and very
enjoyable course to play for golfers of all handicap level.
According to Nicklaus himself, the course was designed to be friendly to the
new and high handicap golfers, while sternly testing to the most seasoned
golfers from the championship tees. This Nicklaus "front nine" was part of
the total 18-hole course setup which was created through "mix & match" in
December '97 to host the prestigeous Johnnie Walker Super Tour, bringing
golfing giants like Nick Faldo, Ernie Els, Jesper Parnevik and Ian Woosnam
and Asian golfing star Felix Casas to Emeralda. In 1995 the Alfred Dunhill
Asian Masters was competed at Emeralda and was won by New Zealander Michael
Campbell. |
Gunung Geulis Country Club

Country Club, West Course

WHITE TEE : 5,643 m RATING 70 SLOPE 134
LADIES TEE : 5,023 m RATING 71.9 SLOPE 133
Gunung Geulis means "beautiful mountain". Some 500 meter above sea level
this majestic mountain-side golf resort offers 2 18-hole courses of which
the oldest is the West Course (1992). Watched by its name giver and standing
on the ever impressive opening hole, one has a bird's eye view on the valley
from which Thomson & Wolveridge carved out this boulder- and rock-rich
layout. The tree opening holes will definitely determine the attitude of
players on the remainder of this course. From teebox 1, most likely one of
Asia's most beautiful holes, your tee shot plunges down a good 40 meters
onto a fairly narrow fairway with 3 intimidating bunkers and an OB area on
the right. A commuter will take the golfers down a long and winding road to
this fairway. Hole 2 offers golfers a choice of twin fairways, either the
high one on the left or the low one on the right. Both of these options
demand a perfect and rather long tee shot for a second shot into a blind
green. The Par's 5 hole 6, 9 and 12 are long and amongst the most difficult
holes on the course. The two-tiered green of the 200 meter par 3 hole 3
rolls further down hill and lies some 20 meters below the tee box. Hitting
this green demands precise club selection.

LADIES TEE : 4,565 m RATING 71.3 SLOPE 121
The East Course at Gunung Geulis is a buggy course. The front nine is
situated in the lower Part of the terrain and is called the Valley Course,
while the back nine is projected on the hill side of the terrain and is
therfore named the Hill Course. Like on the West Course, the par 5 holes 3
and 13, and the par 4 opening hole are amongst the most difficult holes on
the course.
The opening shot is being played from an elevated tee box while the fairway
is halfway cut by a small ravine-type of a rather deep hazzard. Laying up
with an iron in front of this hazzard is the way to go, so club selection is
the secret on this hole. The 8th hole par 5 is water-rich on the left and a
strategically placed fairway bunker on the left of the landing area comes
into play for the longer hitters. The course plays seemingly more difficult
in comParison with the West Course, even though it is shorter. However, it
offers players of all levels of skill an enjoyable day out on the course and
in an area where the air is crisp and clean. |
Jagorawi Golf & Country Club

Jagorawi is one of Indonesia's premier Golf & Country Clubs. Situated in the
Cikeas river valley, the Old Course was designed by Thomson & Wolveridge and
has the reputation of being one of the most beautiful courses in the Asia
Pacific region. It's a tree rich, narrow fairwayed and demanding layout. A
lost ball is a lost ball and playing back from any of the adjacent fairways
is out of the question, simply because the terrain doesn't offer that
possibility. Accuracy, rather than long, is the important factor in playing
this majestic course. Make sure you bring enough spare balls in the bag.
The tee box of hole 1 overlooks a stunning par 5, from which your tee shot
plunges some 50 meters into an impressive rolling fairway. The par 5 holes
1, 5, 10 and 15 and the par 4 holes 12 and 18 are amongst the toughest on
the course. Risking it all on the holes can be a very costly wager indeed.
Visitor are allowed but must be accompanied by members.
Since September 1998, Jagorawi boasts a 12-room luxurious, yet very
affordable hotel facility, The Lodge At Jagorawi. It offers guests an
intimate "home away from home" with direct access to 45 holes of
championship golf.

The new course was designed by Thomson & Wolveridge and was host to the
Indonesian Open in 1997 (winner Graig Perry). During practice rounds for the
'97 Indonesia Open, the majority of the pros lost between 2 and 6 balls on
this nearly 6500 meter long lay out, and they rated the course not only as
one of the toughest in Asia, but as one of the most demanding too. However,
from the white and ladies tee this course is a gentle giant. Some incredibly
beautiful holes, like the par 5 1st hole, the par 5 10th, the par 3 11th,
the par 4 12th, the par 3 15th, and the par 5 16th, will guarantee golfers
an unforgettable experience.
Holes 1, 8, 10 and 16 are amongst the toughest on the course. In comparison
to the Old Course at Jagorawi, playing back from some of the adjacent
fairways on this New Course is possible.
Visitor are allowed, but must be accompanied by members.

DESIGN : Zakir & Max Wexler
HOLES : 9
PAR : 35
BLUE TEE : 2,867 m
WHITE TEE : 2,644 m
LADIES TEE : 2,298 m
There, where the Cikeas river valley is at its ultimate beauty, Jagorawi
Golf & Country Club's latest addition of holes, the New Nine, is situated.
This makes Jagorawi the one and only club in Indonesia offering 45 holes of
championship golf. Setting out from tee box no. 1, on the lower Part of the
valley, the finishing hole no. 9 ends on the highest Part and offer golfers
a bird's eye view on the tropical fiolage in which the Jagorawi courses are
located. The course was designed by Zakir and his close friend Max Wexler
and they chose to weave the beauty of the valley into the course. The
fairways are laid across a rolling table land, bisected by small ravines and
the ever streaming Cikeas river, which, at some places cut the fairway or
has to be crossed by footbridges (8x). The par 4 hole 2 (don't leave your
drive too short), the par 3 hole 3, hole 4 (a par 5 with an island green)
the par 4 hole 5 and the par 3 hole 9, with its elevated tee and hardly no
fairway to play with and a green which is guarded in the front by 2 gigantic
pot bunkers, are amongst the toughest. This 9 hole course is a tough little
cookie and can be played in a "mix & match" format with the Old Course at
Jagorawi.

The Bogor region is often called the new Mecca of Indonesian golf. Right in
the very heart of it and surrounded by more than 10 different quality
courses, one can find Klub Golf Bogor Raya (KGBR).
This Graham Marsh designed course offers a friendly challenging game to
players of all levels of skill in absolute tranquility, amidst panoramic
views and perfect mountain backdrops. KGBR has an easy access from the
Jagorawi Toll Road, which takes visitors from Jakarta to Bogor in less than
45 minutes. The same toll road takes visitors from Bogor to Jakarta's
international airport in less than one hour. KGBR not only boasts an
attractive 18-hole lay out, but also the Novotel Bogor. The latter offers
all the facilities one can expect from a 4-star resort hotel and that makes
it an ideal place to stay even for non-golfing members of the family.
In the Bogor region some exciting places to visit, like for instance the
Puncak (the cool mountain resort area with the famous tea plantations),
Taman Safari (where the famous Sumatran tiger still roams freely), and tha
amazing Bogor Botanical Garden are all located within less than 45 minutes
from KGBR and the Novotel. |

Lido's 18-hole international standard course is without doubt an incredibly
beautiful and challenging course. The distance (some 70 km) from Jakarta,
however, makes it a bit of a problem to get Jakartans to play out there.
During weekdays, it's easy to be out on the course all by yourself and
making you feel like if you're playing your own privte little course. The
Aryaduta Hotel, which conveniently is located at the entrance of the Lido
complex, could solve the problem of making the long trip from Jakarta, which
can cost you up to 2 hours. Lido, truly is an much neglected course for the
above mentioned reason. It's a very attractive layout, with some great
holes, tee boxes and greens offering player some of the best views on Mount
Salak and the surroundings of this cool and mountainous region. From hole
17, players are being offered a truly spectacular view over a valley, which
lies some 200 meters below. The mountains in the backdrop complete the
breathtaking vista.
Our advise to any golfer who visits Jakarta or the Bogor region: Go play
Lido. It's worth the trip and guaranteed, you'll be coming back for more. |

The gently undulated Palm Hill 18-hole course is situated in the grand flat
among the surrounding palm hills of Mount Bogor. Developed and designed by
Japan's Taisei Corporation, this friendly course offers players a layout
which allows playing back of strayed shots from nearly every adjacent
fairway. A 20 meter wide creek separates hole 10 through 15 from the rest of
the holes, while water has to be crossed on hole 7, 11, 13, and 15. On holes
5, 7, 9 and 18 water comes into play either from the tee box, or from the
landing area. Like all of the courses in the Bogor region, this course
offers marvelous views. 1500 meter high Mount Bogor, in the distance,
majestically looks down on the course, which fairways are laid with Bermuda
grass. Fairways and greens are well maintained, while the whole course is
kept in tip-top condition. The spacious, Spanish-styled, cobalt-blue roofed
club house, is fully airconditioned. It's menu card offers a wide variety of

PROFESSIONAL TEE : 6,931 yds

MEN REGULAR TEE : 6,113 yds
LADIES TEE : 5,463 yds
Rancamaya is an absolute beauty of a course. Tucked away in an area right at
the end of the Jagorawi toll road, against the backdrop of a scenic mountain
landscape, nearly every hole is world class. That certainly goes for the
opening hole, where tee shots plunge a good 60 meters onto a fairway which
is guarded on the right side of the landing area by a man-made lake. The
rather small undulating green can only be reached with a precision shot.
Shorts, short to the right of the green can end up in the water. The green
of hole 4 is only reachable in two when your tee shot is placed in the
dogleg right downhill sloping fairway, and when it lands there, where you
are secured of a decent lie. The par 5 hole 8 is 531 yards long, and only a
precise tee shot and a well placed second enable players to go on in three.
The par 3 hole 14 is certainly no walk over. From way above players have to
hit a secure shot onto a green which not only lies way below the tee box,
but also is guarded by bunkers and water to the front. You're going to love
this course. |

On February 1, 1995, Greg Norman, Riverside's designer and spiritual father,
came over to Riverside with his good friend Nick Price to play the inaugural
round. Five years on, the course matured into one of Indonesia's most
beautiful lay outs. Located alongside the Jagorawi toll road, the front nine
sets out towards this busy thoroughfare and particularly on hole 5 and 6
golfers may be distracted by the ever flowing traffic.
Single handicappers might like to have a go from the tough Tournament tee,
having to bridge a total of nearly 7000 meters over 18 holes. It is here
where Greg Norman "the designer", changed cap with Greg Norman "the player".
Long, demanding and challenging. The more friendly tee box is the Men's
regular (white) and offers golfers a lot of great shots and options to
choose from. The back nine seems to be a little less interesting due to the
lack of holes of the quality of for instance hole 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 on the
front nine. All in all, Riverside is a course not to be missed by any player
who is looking for the right combination of beauty and challenge in a
course. Take the Gunung Putri exit on the Jagorawi toll road and follow the
Riverside sign to get there. |

The 18-hole, par 72 Satelindo course was opened for play on May 17, 1997 and
is one of the few public courses in the Bogor & Puncak area. Designed by
Gary Palmer, the course is up to an international standard and is situated
in the prestigious fully integrated Royal Sentul Highland (Bukit Sentul)
resort. Like all of the courses in the Bogor & Puncak region, Satelindo is a
beauty to play. The opening hole plays away from the clubhouse and is the
prelude to a course that, like a giant snake, meanders through the entire
Bukit Sentul resort land area. Hole 18 contrary to most courses, finishes
away from the clubhouse, at the entrance of the resort to be more more
precise. Players are being shuttled back from there to the clubhouse. The
back nine, although shorter than the front nine, is the more difficult part
of the course. Shot making and placing is important here.
Satelindo, once was home to the Gary Player Golf Academy, but the crisis
made them pull back temporarily. Satelindo offers a three hole practice
layout (par 4, 3 and 4) for beginners, and a practice putting green and a
fully equipped driving range. |

Because of its relative young age the course needs maturing and the hundreds
of palm trees planted on the course will one day become an important eye
pleaser. Like most of the better courses in Indonesia, Gading Raya offers a
well designed and tasteful facility. The Terrace Restaurant features three
different cuisines. |

The Imperial Golf Course is located in the satellite town of Lippo Karawaci,
some 30 minutes outside of Jakarta's city centre. The 6,907 yard,
international standard course, was designed by Desmond Muirhead and is a
public facility. It's an open and rather flat course with lots of artificial
undulations. The wind, deep and sometimes long and wide bunkers in all sort
of shapes and interesting water hazards - the later coming into play on 9
out of the 18 holes - add to the course's challenge. Holes 4 and 5 have a so
called island green, while the 563 yard par 5 hole 9 and the 584 yard long
par 5 hole 18 are the most difficult holes on the course. The club boasts a
300 yard driving range and a chipping-and-putting and bunker shot practice
are. The course is located adjacent to the 5-star Imperial Century Hotel and
the Super Mall for all your shopping needs. |
