Strategic location in the heart of Lippo Karawaci and access
Imperial Klub Golf sits in Lippo Karawaci (Tangerang), a modern, upscale area and one of Jakarta’s rapidly developing satellite cities. Its location is highly strategic – about 25 minutes from central Jakarta and about 35 minutes from Soekarno-Hatta International Airport. For golfers who want to play a course of international standard without travelling far from the capital, it is an ideal choice.
Located at the heart of Lippo Village, it is easily accessible for both domestic golfers and overseas guests. It is not only close to business districts and upscale residential areas but also surrounded by a variety of amenities such as shopping centres, an international hospital (Siloam Hospitals) and the luxury Aryaduta hotel, so you can relax comfortably from your stay through to after your round. For access, a company car or your own car is convenient, as are ride-hailing services such as Grab and Gojek. From the Jakarta direction, the Jakarta-Tangerang toll road connects directly to Lippo Karawaci. After arriving at the airport, you can reach the course in under an hour depending on traffic. Please note that GoGolf does not arrange transfer services.

Course design (Desmond Muirhead) and the challenge of play
Imperial Klub Golf was designed by the celebrated British golf course architect Desmond Muirhead. It opened to the public in 1997 and spreads across roughly 500 hectares. The course measures 6,429 metres over an 18-hole, par-72 layout. Each hole has its own character, designed to deliver a varied and challenging playing experience.
The design blends the beauty of Indonesia’s tropical scenery with strategic elements such as undulating fairways, man-made water hazards, sharply cut bunkers and irregular greens. For example, the 4th and 5th are signature holes with their own particular difficulties. The 4th is an island fairway that tests the accuracy of a 200-yard tee shot. The 5th is a par 3 completely surrounded by water and bunkers. The key to conquering them is an accurate shot.
The closing holes of both the front nine and the back nine are long par 5s with a lake alongside the fairway. The wind direction and strength change easily, making the judgement of shot strategy a major challenge. Misjudging ball positioning can lead to a double bogey or worse. This is a course where scoring depends not only on distance but on managing the wind and your landing spots.

Imperial Klub Golf excels not only in its course but also in the facilities it offers. The elegantly designed clubhouse overlooks the 18th hole, with a stunning view especially at sunset.

Dining and events (Imperial Bay)
Located at the end of the 18th hole, “Imperial Bay” is a popular venue for various events of up to 500 guests, such as weddings, birthdays and golf tournaments. The twin lakes extending to left and right create an exceptionally exclusive and beautiful atmosphere. The restaurant inside the clubhouse offers a wide range from Indonesian to Japanese, Korean and Western cuisine, and at the sunset bar you can relax after your round while watching the sunset. From business gatherings to family celebrations, it is a venue that can set the stage for a prestigious day.
