Located in the heart of Jakarta’s Central Business District, Senayan National Golf Club is one of Indonesia’s most iconic urban golf courses. Originally established in 1962, the club has long been a favourite among local golfers thanks to its prime city-centre location. Following a complete redevelopment, the course reopened in 2012 after an extensive transformation led by JMP Golf Design Group and renowned golf course architect Bob Moore, creating one of Jakarta’s finest modern golfing destinations.
Despite occupying just 32 hectares, the redesigned course feels remarkably spacious. Surrounded by lush greenery and abundant birdlife, it provides a peaceful oasis amid Jakarta’s towering skyline, offering a unique golfing experience where nature and city life blend seamlessly.
The championship layout is a par-69, measuring approximately 5,600 yards. While relatively short by modern standards, Senayan National places a premium on precision, course management, and strategic shot-making rather than power. The course features immaculate Paspalum fairways, tee boxes, and rough, complemented by smooth TifEagle Bermuda greens, ensuring excellent playing conditions throughout the year.
Beautifully landscaped with rolling fairways, mature trees, water features, and carefully positioned bunkers, every hole presents a different challenge. Accuracy from the tee and well-judged approach shots are essential, rewarding golfers who can consistently place the ball in the right position.
Among the course’s standout holes is the picturesque 7th hole, a memorable risk-and-reward par-5 framed by mature trees with Jakarta’s impressive skyline rising beyond the green. It offers an excellent birdie opportunity for longer hitters while still rewarding strategic play for golfers choosing a more conservative approach.
The clubhouse matches the quality of the course with contemporary architecture, elegant interiors, and premium facilities. Spacious locker rooms, a fully stocked professional golf shop, and excellent dining options—including a stylish café and Japanese restaurant—provide the perfect setting to relax before or after a round. A large terrace overlooking the course offers panoramic views, making it an ideal place to unwind while enjoying the unique cityscape.
Golfers can also take advantage of excellent practice facilities, including a large undulating putting green that closely replicates the conditions found on the course. For those who prefer a traditional golfing experience, walking the course is encouraged, although golf carts are also available.
Combining championship-quality conditioning, strategic design, luxurious facilities, and an unbeatable location in the centre of Jakarta, Senayan National Golf Club is one of Indonesia’s premier city golf courses and an essential stop for golfers seeking a truly distinctive Jakarta golf experience.
