The Village Course at Waikoloa

The wind blows hard enough to make you think about it on every shy, even putts on exposed greens. The course conditions were okay, but certainly not great. The greens were a bit slow and, on some holes, had lots of the pellets from the bunkers splashed on to the greens, and the little pellets were big enough to knock putts off line.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The pace of play was great. My wife and I played as a twosome and finished our round in under 3.5 hours, and we let a single play through!

The course layou is very interesting. Bunkers are well placed, I especially enjoyed the variety of the holes, and the challenge of trying to figure out what the wind was going to do to every shot.

All in all a very nice golf experience.

I played two courses before I played this one and this was the more expensive of the three and the least impressive. It was pretty flat not particularly scenic and it was extremely windy. It was so windy that our balls were blowing on the green! I think it was overpriced compared to other courses that I’ve played. The staff was friendly but this reminded me of a flat retirement home local golf course. Great course to work on your game as it’s wide and flat.

My boyfriend and I played here to end our vacation and it was a great time! The course was great, lots of rolling greens and a great course to play especially for the first time! Will definitely be back again! And for the price. Couldn’t beat this deal!

Had a great time for a great rate!! No hurry, good pace, finished in 4 hours. Would play here anytime!

I honestly wouldn’t play this course again if it was free. The greens are in absolutely horrible condition. You can tell they aren’t changing the pin location daily because the greens are growing into the holes. They aerated the greens are the complete wrong time of the year and now they are left with incredibly bumpy surface that’s not even worth trying to putt on. None of this was listed on GN or mentioned when I called the course to check the condition. The pro shop was unfriendly and the cart boys seem to think they are the most important people in the world. We got lectured twice from the cart boy. He got all super angry because the golf cart was not in the exact location he expected it. Hey bud, that’s your job, not mine. Told me next time we better park it facing the right direction... or what son... what are you really going to do? Kick us out? Lol. Seriously, this course isn’t worth $10 per round and that’s not even including the 45+ MPH that blow your ball around the fairway and greens. The back 9 isn’t even worth trying to putt unless you can somehow judge the wind moving your ball while it’s rolling. I would get more enjoyment watching my hundred dollar bill burn than that pay for this dog track again.

Beautiful views and beautiful course! Just be prepared for a lot of wind in your face! Loved it overall!

Very windy day. 30-35 mph steady wind. Made for a challenging day. Course conditions were just okay. After 1 1/2 of years of Covid shutdown I was expecting worse though. Greens had been aerated recently do we somewhat slow and very bumpy. My wife enjoyed the course. I played blue and she played red and we were both happy.
