Palm Island Resort

Although this resort is not located in Hong Kong, it is still popular as a weekend destination and frequented by Hong Kongers looking for a relaxing getaway – oh and there is a massive golf course too. Voted “The Best Golf Resort in China” by China Golf Magazine for five consecutive years, the Palm Island Resort is a prime haven of leisure and luxury. With a scenic 27-hole golf course comprising three unique 9-hole sections, this is one of the first golf courses in Southern China to allow golf carts on fairways. Not only does Palm Island have the highest golfing standards, but it is also a world-class resort with grand clubhouses, tennis courts, a shooting range, state-of-the-art business centres, sauna and spa facilities with paintball fields to boot.

Situated in the Hui Yand District in the East of Guangdong Province, Palm Island is just 40 minutes from the Hong Kong boarder and there is a daily 8am shuttle bus service from Queen’s pier in Central, priced at HK $170 for round trips. There are special weekend and weekday packages available.
