We recently wrote about The Best Golf Courses in Jakarta and The Best Golf Courses in Bogor. In this post, we want to focus on the best golf courses in Tangerang (TA) of the JABODETABEK (Greater Jakarta) area which consists of Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi.
We like courses in the Tangerang area since it's all within the town area and is very accessible to shops. The distance is about 30 min from Central Jakarta. The courses are also flattered since it's within the city areas, making it easier to play.
Best Golf Courses in Tangerang
Here is a list of the best golf course in Indonesia
Modern Golf & Country Club
Modern Golf & Country Club is one of the best golf courses in Tangerang. It has 18 holes. The course is designed by five-time British Open Champion Peter Thompson. Every hole is designed with great detail so that each hole has a unique character. Some holes have lakes and some have long fairways. Moreover, all the uniqueness of the characters was designed to provide a fun atmosphere to play golf comfortably. We think that even at a 133 slope rating from the blue tees, Modern is a fun and easy course to play at.
Recreational Activities at Modern Golf Club
There's more than golf at Modern Golf Club. There are indoor and outdoor tennis facilities and players have a choice of three different surfaces. If squash or badminton is your game, you'll find it there too, as well as an Olympic-size pool and a Leisure & Health Centre, offering fitness, aerobics, massage, and yoga and Jazz dance classes. A spa, complete with a sauna, cold and hot plunge pools, Jacuzzi, and steam rooms, is the ideal place to really unwind after a long day of exercise. Food lovers have many choices too. There are local Indonesian, Chinese, or western delicacies in the 5 restaurants in the Country Club's restaurant area. Modern Golf & Country Club is made for the family.
