Nestled between the Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea volcanoes, 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 Waikola Village Golf Club one of Hawaii’s best-kept secrets.

Needs work

The fairwat grass is like the rough at other courses. Spongy greens (yes spongy). Late morning teeoff was almost 5 hour round with sometimes four groups on a hole with open holes ahead (marshalls were out but doing nothing). The course has a great layout but it needs a lot of work.

Fairway conditions need help

Only real complaint was the condition of the fairways. Seemed like almost all of the fairways had a lot of bare patches where the plant root system & dirt was visable with no plant growth showing. Bunkers weren't sand so much as 1/4 minus gravel.

Pea gravel bunkers

I’ve never seen gravel as a bunker material. They say it’s because of the high winds, the sand would blow out. I’ve played many courses that are subject to high winds and never seem gravel.

If you play there bring and old sand wedge or you will ruin your club. Other then that, it’s a good track to play, but play early to avoid slow play.
