HONG KONG, 19 May 2009 — Vietnam’s two of top golf courses have teamed with three of the country’s leading hotels on a bundle of unbeatable vacation packages were announced today.The bargain start in Dalat, where for just USD $81 per person per night players receive a Standard Room at the historic Novotel Dalat hotel, 18 holes of golf with caddie at the Dalat Palace Golf Club and breakfast at Café de la Poste. Stay in a suite and the price is still sweet: USD $139 per night. What’s more, if guests book more than a night, they receive unlimited golf privileges during their stay.
Those who prefer the next level of luxury in Dalat win, too — thanks to the 5-star Sofitel Dalat Palace, which is offering a Superior Room and 18 holes of golf with caddie at the Dalat Palace Golf Club for USD $150 per person per night. The deal includes breakfast at La Rabelais restaurant — in the hotel’s lobby. As with the Novotel, guests opting to extend their stay receive unlimited golf.
“If you’re a golfer, these packages couldn’t be more attractive,” said Jeff Puchalski, Dalat Palace GC’s director of golf. “You get great golf and luxury lodging for next to nothing. To steal a golf term, they’re right down the fairway.” They’re not limited to Dalat, either. Specials can also be scored in Phan Thiet, where the Novotel Ocean Dunes & Golf Resort has gotten into the swing of things, even as high season tees off.
Binh Thuan Province’s foremost beachfront property is offering links lovers a Standard Room and 18 holes of golf with caddie at the Ocean Dunes Golf Club for USD $110. Breakfast at either Seahorse restaurant — on the hotel’s ground floor — or the course’s clubhouse is included in that price. Just as in Dalat, stay at least two nights, and enjoy unlimited golf.
“It’s the perfect time to play too because the club’s tournament schedule dies down this part of year,” said Kenny Saunders, Ocean Dunes GC’s operations manager. “You can pretty much tee it up, whenever you want. And because there’s less traffic, the course is in great shape.”
“Last October, the Dalat Palace Golf Tournament, representing the funds has deposited US$6,000. This amount of money will be donating to help the disable children. This is small part of our contributions which helps lighten up their lives,” said Tony Chisholm, General Manager of Sofitel and Novotel Dalat.
In its 2003, 2005 and 2007 Planet Golf surveys, Golf Digest (USA) rated Dalat Palace and Ocean Dunes golf clubs Nos. 1 and 2 in the country, respectively. The 43-room Sofitel Dalat Palace was built in 1922 as the anchor to the fledgling colonial resort of Dalat, 300 kilometers northeast of Ho Chi Minh City. Twelve years later, the 140-room Novotel Dalat was erected as an annex to the Palace.
The Novotel Ocean Dunes & Golf Resort was the first resort to grace the shores of Vietnam when it opened in 1996. Embraced on three sides by a Nick Faldo - designed golf course and by a private, 1.5-kilometer stretch of the East Sea, the six-storey, 123-room facility continues to stand as beacon of the vibrant resort scene along the South-Central Coast.
