Akamizu Golf Resort, located at the foot of Mount Aso in the magnificent volcanic region of Kumamoto Prefecture, Kyushu, Japan, is truly a place with the triple beat of 'Golf + Hot Springs + Nature'. The golf course is currently under management after being acquired by Show Golf, a Korean-based operator. In local travel blogs and reviews, there are many positive evaluations that "It is good for Korean golfers to access and the price is reasonable."
Akamizu Golf Resort has a total of 27 holes. The course is largely divided into three sections of the forest course 'Kishima Course', the plateau fairway 'Nakadake Course', and 'Guilin Course', which combines gentle slopes and natural scenery. The strength of the golf course is that the forest course surrounded by cedar and cypress trees, and the course that utilizes the plateau topography of Aso Caldera are harmonized to have both strategy and scenery.
The locally identified usage fee is relatively reasonable. It is especially attractive to Korean golfers because it can be played in two and three players, and it can be played at a certain cost.
Another strength of Akamizu Golf Resort is that natural water rising from the underground of Aso Mountain flows as it is, so there are many evaluations that the water quality is excellent. Hot spring bathing is a huge attraction not only for golfers but also for travelers. Akamizu Golf Resort is an ideal winter destination in that you can enjoy golf rounding on the plateau at the same time with warm hot springs, especially when it is cold and difficult to round golf in Korea during the winter season. Various hot spring villages are located within a 5 to 10 minute drive from Akamizu Golf Resort.
The water quality of these hot springs is high in sulfate or silica-containing hot springs, which is said to be good for skin care, recovery from fatigue, and rest after sightseeing.
Rounding is often difficult in Korea in winter, but the Aso region is different. Thanks to the Kumamoto climate and the plateau terrain around Aso Mountain, which is relatively mild even in winter, it is excellent as a 'winter golf destination' where you can enjoy golf + hot springs + natural scenery together.
In particular, Korean golfers can easily access Kumamoto by plane, and it can be a cost-effective option thanks to its relatively reasonable cost and convenience.
