Book tee times and accommodation in advance
For a smooth golfing experience, don’t forget to book tee times and accommodation in advance. While Malaysia has a large number of golf courses and resorts, many are crowded and difficult to book, especially on weekends and public holidays. Booking in advance ensures that you get to play at the exact course and hotel you want. Many golf courses and hotels offer early bird discounts or special packages for advance bookings, which can save you money on your trip.
You can book tee times and accommodation directly through online booking systems such as websites and hotlines. You can also book through agents who can create tailored golf packages that handle both tee times and accommodation, ensuring a smooth itinerary. But remember to check cancellation policies to avoid surprise charges and plan for flexibility in your itinerary.

Pack appropriately
Prepare your golf equipment carefully before going, invest in a travel bag to protect them during flights or transfers. You can also rent them from most golf courses but the price may be higher. Some golf clubs may have dress codes for clubhouse access, so don’t forget to prepare suitable, light and breathable golf clothes and golf shoes for more comfortable playing.
In addition to your golfing gear, prepare casual clothes and personal items such as sunscreen, hat, umbrella, and insect repellent to be able to comfortably participate in recreational activities after golfing.

Tips to save money for your Malaysia golf trip
Planning a golf trip to Malaysia doesn’t have to be expensive. You can enjoy world-class golf courses, luxury accommodations and unforgettable experiences while staying within your budget. Here are some practical tips to save money on your trip:
- Use golf packages: many resorts offer Stay&Play packages that include accommodation, green fees and other amenities such as breakfast, spa and shuttle service. These packages are cheaper than booking each service separately, helping you save more money.
- Play on weekdays or low season: if your schedule allows, play golf on weekdays or low season because costs such as green fees, accommodation, and airfare are lower and there are also much fewer tourists than on weekends and holidays.
- Instead of renting a car, use public transport or Grab to travel between golf spots. This way of transportation is quite economical and is always available in most major cities such as Kuala Lumpur, Penang.
- You can enjoy famous Malaysian dishes at local restaurants, food stalls or street vendors with similar flavors as in luxury restaurants but at much cheaper prices.
- Booking early often comes with discounts on flights, accommodation and tee times, so plan ahead to get the best prices and avoid last-minute price increases.
