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.

Enjoyed the course.
Course was in great shape and very busy which accounted for the slowness of play. Friendly staff; prompt service. Marshall did get play moving along which we appreciated.
Great warm-up Course
this is a great place to start a Hawaii golf vacation, especially if not familiar with bermuda greens and the grain and how it effects putts and chips.The grain is very strong at this course so into the grain quite slow, down grain fast and the grain will pull your put when putting across it. Staff friendly. this is a course with some strong holes and some very easy ones. Recommend it and I will play it again.
Great course for price!
Played course twice in week. Tricky greens but overall conditions were good. Will definitely be back!
course good condition and challenging especially in wind
Wind was like a gale(very difficult to even stand and address ball for most of round) so played very difficult conditions for entire round. would like to play again with much less wind
generic muni's
tough to hit from Kikuyu grass fairways,put on unmowen greens.good designed gc.,fun to play
Great Fun on the Course
We had 3 foursomes and everyone played along briskly in front of us on this lovely island course. Finished in just under 4 hours. Blues are a good challenge for the 1-10 handicapper and whites challenge on the par threes (160-190 yards), but give you enough opportunities for birdie and par to make it fun.
A pleasant surprise and good value
After several trips to the Big Island I finally played the Waikoloa Village GC. The conditions were as good or better than the Waikoloa Resort Beach Course but at a much better price. It was a great layout with beautiful view overlooking the ocean-front resorts on almost every hole. It will definitely be a regular course in the rotation for future trips.
Great all round golfing experience.
This course is a treat to play with a great variety of holes. Wind can make it a real challenge but fun to play with as many wind directions through out the layout. I have played numerous rounds and never bored.
This course has some great views.
The sand traps for the most part are very gravelly and difficult to consistently get out of with any precision.
Good value, nice views
Played here several times. Course is in good condition. For women the course is challenging because of length. Not a lot of trouble otherwise. Not as pristine as some of the other courses closer to the beach, but then again, the price differential is quite substantial.
Fair test of golf.
Easy course. Wide fairways with limited rough. Good way to get the rust off your game before taking on some of the more difficult courses on the Island.
Nice views. Good variety of holes.
Good value and nice relaxed place.
This was the second time we played in three days. Great value using GolfNow. Course is well maintained and staff is very pleasant. Cart girl liked to hang out under the trees and you needed to search her out--different than the prior day we played. Course can be windy, but that's Hawaii golf. Just add a couple of clubs and you'll have no real issues. Fun track!
Good for money
All par fives are easy. The course is quite east if you play in white. Good players should play it in blue one
The course was challenging but fair. Enjoyed the views as well
Good value for the money; enjoyed the course. Good views on several holes.
Course was in Good shape.. speed of play was Great until last 3 holes.We rented clubs, we had brand new Taylormade Roctetballz clubs!
this was the first time we used Golfnow.com the price was fantastic and we had absolutely no trouble when we showed up for our tee times.
Fun layout at a good price.
We enjoyed this course. The fairways were open and very inviting from the tee box, the greens were in great condition and the views were outstanding on several holes.
Great Course in the mountains
It was beautiful and peaceful. Not a lot of people
Beautiful course and well kept.
We enjoyed our outing on a beautiful and challenging course. The greens were excellent.
Beware of the sand traps
There is no sand in the bunkers, just white corral pea gravel, eats clubs something fierce. Some are just dirt and gravel. Course is in good condition except for the bunkers. Should be able to take a penalty drop rather than ruin a good club.
Waikoloa Village
Well maintained, fun golf course. Some challenging holes and always a great pace of play.
