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.

Second last round before heading home

When we started, the starter said we had the course to ourselves. The next group is on hole 5 or six. We caught up to them on hole 13. It was a group of 5. A single was playing behind them and the 5-some wouldn't let him play through. They must be owners of the course and run it the way they want to. So unfortunate. So we followed the single who was following the 5-some. Took us near as long to play the last 5 holes as it did to play the first 13 holes.

The course is in great shape

Probably the best shape I have ever seen it in. We have been playing this course for many years. It provides the best bang for your buck compared to many of the other courses on the island.

Good, but don't pay full price

The golf course is fun with generous fairways. Stay out of the bunkers, because it isn't sand, but a granular mix. Course is good at a discount rate, but I would not be happy to play this course and pay the non resident fee.

Solid course for average player.

I am an eighteen handicap and my wife a twenty and play on average twice a week. We enjoy golf for what it is. A day to hit some good shots and bad shots. This course as far as I am concerned will fit your needs in all areas.

Large open forgiving fairways!

Course was amazing but the high winds made it challenging often going up 2-3 clubs and down 1-2 clubs. The wide fairways were nice. The course was further off the beach and up in the hills more than I had thought

Nice option to the resort courses

First course played on the island and adjusting to the turf and wind made play a bit more challenging. Played two other resort courses and found the rough here more punishing than the other two. The bunkers have pea gravel instead of sand and that was another adjustment.

Overall well maintained and in good condition with great views.

Fun Upcountry Course

Was looking for a nice course but didn’t want to spent $250 plus a round. Read the recent reviews and was ready to give it a try. Course was really nice and the staff were great. Kept us in the loop on when we should head to the first tee. Course was a cool layout with pretty generous fairways. The greens appeared to have been recently vertical-cut but rolled pretty nice despite. I would recommend and at the hot deal price of $28.00. Yes so so worth it.
