Ciputra Golf Surabaya is not only the largest golf course in Surabaya, East Java, but also one of Indonesia’s most complete and well-developed golf complexes. With its intelligent course design, comprehensive facilities, and refreshing green surroundings, it offers more than just a place to play golf — it’s a lifestyle destination.
Featuring easy accessibility, professional service, and an exclusive resort atmosphere, Ciputra Golf Surabaya stands out as a top choice for golfers who seek an all-in-one experience — from playing and relaxing to networking and family recreation. For both locals and visitors to East Java, this course is undoubtedly one of the best golfing and leisure destinations in the region.
History and Strategic Location
Ciputra Golf Surabaya represents not only exclusivity in golf but also the successful integration of real estate and recreation. Located within the Citraland township in West Surabaya, the course is one of the flagship developments of the Ciputra Group. Spanning an impressive 125 hectares, it is officially recognized as the largest golf course in East Java, catering to both professional and amateur golfers.
Its location in West Surabaya provides excellent accessibility. The course is approximately 20 kilometers from downtown Surabaya and 35 kilometers from Juanda International Airport. The well-planned roads, clean environment, and modern neighborhood — often dubbed the “Singapore of Surabaya” — make every visit pleasant and convenient.
The course was designed by Andy Dye III of the renowned Dye Design Corporation, a name respected worldwide for its innovative golf course designs. His influence is evident in Ciputra’s ability to offer a layout that is both technically challenging and visually captivating, with a seamless blend of manmade precision and natural beauty.

Course Design Excellence: 27 Holes, Three Distinct Themes
One of the main highlights of Ciputra Golf Surabaya is its 27-hole layout, divided into three distinctive nine-hole zones, each with its own theme and atmosphere: Valley, Lake, and Hill.
Valley Course
This section features wide and relatively flat fairways, providing a comfortable yet strategic playing experience. It’s ideal for beginners and intermediate golfers, offering a smooth introduction to the course while still rewarding precision and control.
Lake Course
As the name suggests, this zone integrates numerous water features, demanding careful shot planning and distance judgment. Golfers must accurately manage their carry distances to clear the water hazards and safely land on the fairway. The Lake Course emphasizes accuracy and decision-making, perfect for players who enjoy tactical challenges.
Hill Course
This is the most demanding zone, featuring undulating terrain and multi-tiered greens that test approach shots and distance control. The combination of bunkers, elevation changes, and sloped lies challenges even the most experienced golfers to stay sharp.
Among the course’s signature features is Hole 25, a Par 3 recognized by the Indonesian Record Museum (MURI) for having the most bunkers on a single hole — an incredible 11 bunkers surrounding its small green. Equally iconic, Hole 26 boasts a 1,398-square-meter green, the largest in the region, adding another unique twist to the course’s diverse playing experience.
Together, the Valley, Lake, and Hill courses create a multi-dimensional test of golfing skill — balancing strategy, shot-making, and visual enjoyment across every round.
