Kona Country Club

About
The Ocean Course is one of two championship courses at Kona Country Club. As its name implies, this course has an oceanfront location with views of the surrounding mountains that are home to its sister course, the Mountain Course. The Ocean Course provides an easier, but no less enjoyable round than its sibling. The layout features wide-open fairways and numerous strategically placed sand bunkers. The turquoise waters and black lava outcroppings provide natural hazards. The signature holes are the third and 12th, but one of the most memorable is the 13th hole where during November through March, you can catch a glimpse of a humpback whale. While both Kona C.C. golf courses provide a variety of challenges, the Ocean Course is a gentle, more player-friendly option that still features the same stunning views as the Mountain Course.

Beautiful Ocean Course
Fantastic experience and a fun well kept layout. Subtle breaks in the greens kept it challenging both days and the tips at sea level provided challenges for our entire group.
Beautiful Water Views
This is now our favorite golf course on the Big Island. The course in good condition and pace of play was excellent. Now they have newer golf carts. Like the GPS in carts.
Kona cc
Good conditions and pace. 4/18.. great views of ocean.. worthwhile to do the view bar n grille after a round ..
Kona CC
Cool course .. carts electric and near new- worked very well . Course conditions weren’t perfect but good..layout was good with clubhouse at the turn for hole 10. There is a driving range. Enjoyable ocean and countryside views. Some wildlife -goats n birds got a hot deal @85 - usually 170.
Awesome Ocean views
Course great condition with fast greens and pounds located on slope missed seeing blow home on hole 3 twosome finished in 3 hours with 1030 tee
Horrible management
I booked through Golfnow for $123 because booking through the website was $200. I made the mistake on the tee time and was 1 1/2 hours early. The (local) cashier was very nice and she said the course was wide open, however, the Pro (manager) will not let you go out early. I explained to him that the course was wide open and can I go out, he was extremely ride, could care less and was adamant that he could not let me go early. I putted, hit some range balls, chipped etc. Range balls were not included and the balls were about 10 years old! I went back up and checked in 1/2 hour to 40 min early and received by cart. The LOCAL starter was very nice and stated, the course is wide open, go for it! Course was in decent shape and I enjoyed the round.
My dismay is the POS Pro that thinks he is working at The Masters or Pebble Beach! He needs to learn some management and customer skills!
The attached restaurant was the same. The bartender was rude and she could care less that I wanted a drink and lunch. She was extremely nice to her local three male friends, eating off their plate and talking with them the entire time. She finally brought my burger, then rudely asked “ do you want condiments” really! I had to get up to ask for my bill and couldn’t wait to leave.
The people at this so called Country Club need to learn customers service. The locals that work there are very nice and old school.
I will not return!
Scenic Course
Course was very nice. Only complaint is golf club rental. Clubs were in poor condition, some mixed clubs in bag. Putters grips were terrible.
Still enjoyed the course overall.
Good Day
Fairways are good and greens are in great shape. Pace was about 4-1/2 hours as there was a slow foursome ahead of us. Definitely was a busy Sunday on the course.
Nice but Tough Greens
We’ve played several of the resort courses so far and found Kona CC to be in great shape comparatively. Greens are perfect. The undulations made for a tough day putting but if you played here a few times, you’d get used to them. Fairways were nice as well, and you can’t beat the views.
Fun course
Course is in great shape! Greens are very tricky.
Overall had a great time!
