Terrible Greens For The Price

The location and views are hard to beat, but the condition of the greens ruined the experience. Grass on the greens was thin in many areas with many areas mostly sandy. (Granted, the greens were not as sandy as after an aeration.) I expect greens such as these occasionally from municipal courses on the mainland but not on a resort course with almost a $300 fee. Rate should be reduced to reflect the condition of the course/greens.

Ko Olina Golf Course

Booking through Golf Now was not easy, complicated rules on what cannot & can be used with gift cards.

A gift one would think should be able to be used to pay 100% of value for or towards a round of golf, but evidently not the case as I experienced. I could have paid for the round cheaper without added GolfNow fees.

Disappointing…

Terrible provided transportation service.

The course provided a driver to take us to and from the course. Upon returning we had left shoes in the car and called to ask if the driver could return them to us before going too far. They said it would only take 3 minutes and was "no problem". Upon returning with my shoes the driver refused to give them to me unless I tipped him an additional 10 dollars or more. This was not mentioned on the call to return our stuff and was more than rude. The driver ruined the entire experience for my partner and I. We will not be return no matter the course

Slow play

Course in great shape. Pace of play was a problem. Foursome in front taking pictures on most holes. No Marshall to keep them on pace or to allow us to go ahead of them.

Pace too slow

This is a beautiful course and understandably golfing. Hawaii is very expensive. But a five hour round where you are waiting every single shot to play is unacceptable. Played twice in one week and there was never a martial existent to speed up play in addition beverage card, person nowhere to be seen Love the course and it’s in beautiful shape. However, the greens are extremely slow and the piece of place is unacceptable. It won’t stop us from playing it but if you don’t play at 7 AM, expect a five hour round or more.

Beautiful course, friendly staff

Second time playing Ko Olina on a short Hawaii trip. Beautiful course. Challenging with the wind, false fronts, and water hazards. Pace was slow as they let a five some play ahead of us, but the course Marshalls somehow got them to speed up. All the staff was exceptionally friendly. The Aloha shines!

Weather was nice

Weather was perfect the day we played. Tough part was pace of play. We didn’t realize kids are free after 3:00 so that was annoying waiting at every hole while the kids hacked around! I would recommend you get an early tee time to avoid that. Course is a little rough on the maintenance side. No one fixes their divots etc so expect some bump putting. However the staff was super nice and great selection in the Pro Shop.
