On the beautiful ground of the formerly known Laguna National Golf and Country Club—one of Singapore’s prominent golf and country club since its inauguration in 1993—now stands Dusit Thani Laguna, a premier urban golf resort integrated with a five-star luxury hotel. A renowned golf destination that hosts international tournaments and major championships, the state-of-the-art union of a world-class golf club and a Dusit-Thani branded hotel introduces a new set of social and recreational privileges for golf members and hotel patrons.
Inspired by the gentle undulation of the golf course, the sleek, curvilinear form of Dusit Thani Laguna soars over a six-story hotel and three-story redesigned clubhouse. The discrepancy in height and the awkward marriage of the two is disguised by a single and unified roof, shaped to complement the surging landscape of the resort.
The roof which makes the architecture doesn’t just enclose the structure but becomes the body. It thrusts up out of the landscape itself, sweeping up from the ground to create a shelter for the hotel before surging on to cover the existing clubhouse, splaying out in the middle to provide an entrance canopy on one side and the frame for the all-day dining room and ballroom/ banquet room on the other.
From the golf course, the left side of the building houses the hotel with standard rooms and a group of penthouses with private terraces. On the same side lies a gorgeous pool that spans the entire length of the hotel. At the right side of the building is the clubhouse, where players can relax after a round of golf. The center area holds the golf club lobby, the all-day dining, and the ballroom and acts as a central volume. It kind of separates the two, the hotel and clubhouse, but also serves as a link emphasizing Dusit Thani Laguna as the perfect space for sports and recreation, catering to golfers and leisure-seekers alike.
Featuring a distinct and unique architecture, seamless roof execution, and tasteful design, Dusit Thani Laguna offers golfers and guests a top-notch resort experience touched with iconic and gracious Thai hospitality.
