Kosaido Golf & Country Club

A brief introduction

Set along the northern coast of Lombok in the serene Sire Bay area, Lombok Golf Kosaido Country Club combines tropical beachfront charm with championship-class golf. With sweeping views of the ocean, coconut groves, and distant peaks, the course offers a tranquil yet world-class experience — perfect for those seeking a distinctive island round away from Bali’s crowds.

The 18-hole par-72 layout, designed by renowned architects Peter Thompson, Michael Wolveridge and Ross Perrett, spans approximately 6,295 meters from the championship tees. Front nine holes run along the coast — some with white-sandy beaches nearby — while the back nine ascend toward gentle hills and forested areas, offering a balanced mix of seaside wind tests and inland accuracy shots.

Golfers enjoy a classic tropical setting — palm-lined fairways, sea breezes, native greenery, and open skies. The course’s natural terrain is respected: fairways follow original contours, bunkers are subtly placed, and greens run smoothly under coastal conditions — creating a blend of natural beauty and strategic golf challenge that’s rare among resort courses.

The clubhouse, while modest, offers essential amenities: a beachfront restaurant serving local and international fare, locker and shower facilities, a pro shop for gear and souvenirs, and rental clubs/shoes for guests without their own equipment. Golf carts (buggies) and caddy service are standard, making it accessible for both seasoned golfers and visiting travelers.

Whether you’re chasing a scenic coastal round at sunrise, enjoying a relaxed game with ocean breeze, or combining golf with a northern Lombok escape, Lombok Golf Kosaido stands out as an inviting entry to the island’s burgeoning sport-tourism scene — a hidden gem waiting for golfers ready for both serenity and challenge.

Its peaceful setting near the Gili Islands makes the course especially popular among travelers looking to blend golf with island-hopping, snorkeling, or beachfront relaxation. The lack of crowds, open fairways, and gentle ambience offer a refreshing change of pace — giving golfers a calm, unhurried round framed by Lombok’s natural beauty.

Expert review(s) for Lombok Golf Kosaido Country Club

  1. Reviewer 1

    DWR November 2025

    Lombok Golf Kosaido offers a refreshing escape for golfers seeking open coastal views, gentle breezes, and a relaxed island atmosphere. The front-nine holes along Sire Bay feel especially serene, allowing players to enjoy wide fairways framed by palm trees and warm sunlight.

    While not overly demanding, the course rewards good course management and offers enough variety to keep both new and experienced players engaged from start to finish.

  2. Reviewer 2

    DWR November 2025

    The back nine transitions smoothly into a more inland, tropical setting. Subtle elevation changes, tree-lined approaches, and hillside views of Rinjani create a distinctly different rhythm, making the round feel naturally divided into two scenic chapters.

    Golfers who appreciate calm surroundings and uncluttered fairways will find this course particularly enjoyable compared to busier regional destinations.

  3. Reviewer 3

    DWR November 2025

    Facilities are simple but charming, with a small restaurant offering beachfront views that make post-round meals especially pleasant. The staff deliver warm Lombok hospitality, and caddies add both guidance and friendly company during the round.

    While the infrastructure is not as polished as larger resort courses, the overall atmosphere is relaxed, genuine, and welcoming.

  4. Reviewer 4

    Kosaido is ideal for golfers who value peace, scenery, and a slower pace. Whether paired with a Gili Islands holiday or explored as part of a Lombok itinerary, the course provides a memorable experience marked by natural beauty and simplicity.

    It may not boast modern resort luxuries, but its charm lies in its authenticity — a seaside course that feels genuinely connected to its island surroundings.
