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.

Not spectacular but a very well designed course.

Challanging layout. Can be very difficult when the wind blows. Only negative is the sand in the bunkers. Some great ocean views.

Great inland Course

Because we stayed in the Timeshare right on the course, We had the opportunity to view the course everyday. Very pristine, and course lends itself to score well if you put it in the fairway. The greens were tricky and challenging. Not much water to get you into trouble. Great course to help tune up for any ocean course you might play. My wife and I enjoyed the round. Watch out for the wind as this effects club selection by as much as 2 to 3 clubs. Great value thru Golfnow. A must play. for an avid golfer.
