Song Be Golf Resort

The Desert Course at Song Be Golf Resort is located in Binh Duong Province, north of Ho Chi Minh City in southern Vietnam's developing industrial corridor. Designed by Barry Humphrey, an Australian architect who has worked extensively throughout Southeast Asia, the course occupies land in the Lai Thieu area, a region historically known for fruit cultivation before rapid urbanization transformed much of the surrounding landscape. The layout reflects Humphrey's approach to tropical golf design, working with the relatively flat terrain characteristic of the Mekong Delta region while incorporating water features and strategic bunkering to define playing corridors and create challenge. The course name suggests a design concept that contrasts with the lush vegetation typical of Vietnamese golf courses, possibly featuring more exposed sandy areas, waste bunkers, or a links-inspired aesthetic adapted to the local climate and conditions. Song Be Golf Resort operates as part of Vietnam's expanding golf infrastructure, serving both local players and visitors to the Ho Chi Minh City metropolitan area. The facility caters to the growing Vietnamese golf market as well as international business travelers and tourists exploring the region. The course provides a golf option in Binh Duong Province, which has seen considerable development as an industrial and residential zone in recent decades, making golf accessible to the area's expanding population and business community.
