A Faldo design in Cikarang
Jababeka’s official club description confirms an 18-hole Nick Faldo layout, with water features and shaped terrain creating choices for a range of golfers. The original Sasak Tour guide places it in the Jababeka business and industrial area east of Jakarta and emphasises that each hole has its own character.
Water changes the target
The original article lists 6,589 metres from the back tees, but also points out that the challenge is not simply the length. Water around the landing areas and bunkers near the greens make the position of the tee shot important. The shorter tee options still call for a plan rather than a relaxed assumption that every carry will be easy.
The closing three holes
The source highlights the final three holes as a strong finish. On the par-5 sixteenth, it describes the temptation to attack in two while accounting for water across and beside the route, plus water behind the green. It then describes water along the right side of the par-3 seventeenth and par-4 eighteenth. Confirm current distances and safe targets with the caddie.
Choosing your tees
Select a tee using your consistent carry and the conditions on the day. A controlled lay-up can leave a better approach than a forced carry to a narrow area. The original tee figures below are reference information from the source; the club’s current scorecard and markers should guide the actual round.
Tournament reference
The original guide identifies the LINC Group Jakarta Invitational on the Asian Development Tour among the club’s professional-event history. This is background on the course’s competitive use, rather than a guarantee about current tournament setup or green speed.
Clubhouse and facilities
The source describes an Arkonin-designed clubhouse, restaurant, pro shop, driving range and practice areas, along with additional leisure and private-event facilities. The photographs include the lobby, clubhouse, range, caddie and cart areas, fairways and course map. Confirm which facilities are available to visiting golfers and whether separate reservations are needed.
Conditions and arrival planning
Older general ratings and assurances of year-round conditions cannot predict the day you play. Ask about rain, maintenance, aeration and the course in use. Cikarang travel time varies significantly by hotel, traffic and departure time, so the source’s short journey estimate should not be treated as a fixed transfer time.
