Ready for the ultimate golf weekend getaway? Then join AAS in Desaru Coast for a weekend of golf and family fun at the AAS Ambassador's Cup Golf Tournament presented by Hard Rock Hotel Desaru Coast! Grab your friends and family, and come enjoy an incredible weekend break.

 

OUTLINE OF YOUR DAY AND STAY

Grab your breakfast courtesy of The American Club, then board a ferry from Singapore's Tanah Merah ferry terminal at 8:30 am to Tanjung Pengelih. (The water is less rough on this crossing than the crossing straight to Desaru.) Then you'll take a chartered bus ride (provided by AAS) from the ferry terminal to The Els Club Desaru Coast clubhouse to get your locker assignment where your goodie bag and Hard Rock-branded cap will be waiting. Your suitcases will be tagged and taken to the hotel for pickup after the tournament. 

 

Then, enjoy a pre-round buffet lunch at The Els Club Desaru Coast. Finally, it's time for the big event: a shotgun start and an exhilarating day of tournament play on the Ocean Course in a shared golf cart stocked with snacks, water, and beer. After golf, head back to the hotel for a rocking awards dinner at SESSIONS Restaurant by Hard Rock Hotel Desaru Coast with two hours of free-flow beer & wine (cocktails can be purchased at the hotel's bar) and a live music concert. 

 

On Sunday, after breakfast, you have two options: 1) top up and take a special 11:00 am chartered bus back to Singapore, or 2) stay and enjoy the day, then catch the 5:30 pm ferry back to Tanah Merah. You can either add an extra day of golf (see below for extra golf details), head to the water park attached to the hotel (each registered guest staying at the hotel gets a free ticket to the water park), or do something else fab. Here are some other suggestions. You decide!
