This 18-hole golf course is located on Friendship Circumferential Road in Barangay Cutcut, Angeles, right next to Porac. It was formerly the Royal Garden golf course. After closing around the time of the pandemic, it underwent major renovations and was renamed, began trial rounds on some holes in September 2025, and held its grand opening in January 2026. According to a 2026 blog post, it first opened in 2009.
It is a par-72, 18-hole parkland-style course made up of two 9-hole courses, the Royal Course and the Central Course. The elevation changes are minimal, so it isn't physically demanding. However, there are dogleg holes, bunkers around the greens, and water hazards throughout, and many reviews say direction matters more than distance. Several reviews say that after the renovation, the fairways and greens are in better condition than expected and keep improving. On the other hand, some reviewers point out that parts of the fairways are yellowed or bare, and that the course gets muddy after rain. The clubhouse has locker rooms, a restaurant, and a pro shop, and there are practice facilities such as a driving range and a chipping green. Many reviews say it's convenient to ask questions because there are Korean staff at the counter, and several reviews say the Korean food at the clubhouse restaurant was decent.
Green fees for 18 holes in peak season (November 1 to March 14) are ₱4,500 on weekdays and ₱5,500 on weekends (reference prices). Cart fee (₱1,800 for 2 people per cart), caddie fee (₱700 per person), and insurance (₱150) are paid separately. There is a ₱300 minimum food and beverage spend, and one review says the unused balance isn't refunded, so it's better to spend it on drinks or snacks during your round. The driving range costs ₱120 for 50 balls, and club storage is ₱200 per month. Members of the Korean Association get a 20% discount.
According to Google Maps' popular times, it is busiest every day from around 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., and especially on Saturday mornings. Tuesdays and Wednesdays tend to be relatively less crowded. There are several complaints about long delays at every hole, including a review of waiting 2 hours for tee-off. Some reviews also say caddie operations weren't smooth, so it's best to leave plenty of time in your schedule after the round.
According to Google Maps, there is a free parking lot as well as free street parking, and there are wheelchair-accessible parking spaces and entrances. Many reviews say that because it is close to Angeles Koreatown (Friendship), getting around is easy. Royal Hotel is about 100 m away. You can make inquiries via Facebook or by phone.
