Leading destination resort Laguna Phuket has announced plans for an extensive golf course renovation program starting July 1st.

Plans call for an 18 month timeline to complete, with completion expected by January 2015.

During the upgrade only 9 holes will be operational, on an alternating basis.

The scope of work include tee improvements, bunkers, greens, practice facilities and drainage/irrigation.

Members will receive a 50% discount on dues during renovation, subject to certain conditions.

Laguna is expected the completed course to be widely improved and be more competitive against facilities at Blue Canyon and Red Mountain.

The best and most effective and most appreciative alteration the Laguna golf club can make is to turn the course into a buggy course so that senior players can enjoy the course all year.
