The Village Course at Waikoloa
Rating Snapshot
About
Nestled between the Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea volcanoes, The Village Course at Waikoloa (formerly known as Waikola Village Golf Club) has a beautiful and unique location that overlooks the Pacific Ocean. The verdant, rolling terrain is dotted with stands of young trees and lakes that were incorporated into the golf course’s design. Robert Trent Jones Jr., the course’s designer, tried to maintain the natural assets of the landscape while adding a few challenges such as fairways bunkers and doglegs. The golf course also features traditional raised greens that are subject to forceful prevailing winds. Although the course is challenging enough for the serious golfer, the relaxed pace and beautiful scenery appeal to players of all skill levels. Locals often consider The Village Course at Waikoloa one of Hawaii’s best-kept secrets.

Very reasonable
Greens are in great shape but some of the fairways and rough have damage from the nenes. Nice layout.
Course can and did play extremely slow with a group a few holes ahead having 2 open holes in front of them and no marshals. Still if you can get a good price its one to play.
Slow play
Typical public course
They don't care about pace of play just give us our money and hack away
Back nine was faster
Cheaper than other courses but was priced closer to its playability
Not a casual place
The only complaint I have on this course is that the starter doesn't methodically space out groups. We teed off and by the third hole, we felt rushed. The group behind us was coming up fast. We were not slow but these 2 guys were hounding us. Finally, they caught up and we let them pass. Shortly after that, a single woman was hitting her ball close to us. On every shot, she was about 50 yards from us. We try to let her jump us but she stayed back and hover. Our replay round at 2:00pm was better. Nice easy pace like a hawaiian round should be.
Great staff and course views
Greeted as we got out of our car by friendly staff. Wife is new golfer and loved the beautiful course. Golfers we met were very nice. So we’re the Nene and turkeys. We would love to call this our home course!
Mostly local members play
Wanted to find a not so expensive course to play along the Kona, HI coast after playing several high-end courses on my vacation. Got a good deal on GolfNOw for $85 at 11am start. Greens were in better shape than some of the more expensive tracts, but fairways and tee boxes were "chewed up" with bare spots, some weeds. Biggest problem was the "Fivesome" in front of our twosome that would not let us play thru. We followed this group (probably members) for 11 holes, waiting on tee box and in fairways for them to clear the next green. Pretty aggravating that the club allows this to happen. No Ranger on the course either.
