Royal Hawaiian Golf Club

Spectacular vistas. One of the most beautiful courses we have ever played. Not easy, but, who cares.
Bring a lot of balls.

Layout was incredible, staff and conditions didn’t match. No publishing of when carts were due in except once you got to the pro shop which at that point was already too late. Poor management of tee sheet, had three singles in front of us. No chance to finish the round. Snack shop closed before we teed off. No way to get beer or drinks.

Played this course for the first time and was not disappointed. Super challenging, in great condition.
Greens were a little slow and there’s no marshall to keep things moving, but overall would definitely recommend to others.
Friendly staff and the starter was very helpful.

I have played the Royal Hawaiian golf club several times. Up until now, it had been my favorite golf destination in Hawaii. The course used to be in excellent shape. This time, the tee boxes and fairways were in poor shape. The greens had been punched and sanded. Golfnow didn't mention that when I booked the round. We were very annoyed to pay the outrageous tourist rate for a course with punched greens. I still love the layout and the lush rain forest setting. Based on what they charge, we expect the course to be in better shape.

Very Difficult and challenging courses , but they were so so beautiful courses ! I had such fun a lot !
You should bring a lot of balls, if you never play there .
I lost a lot of balls ....

Very challenging. Great course design. Unbeatable Mountain View. Feels like you are playing golf in a tropical botanic garden. Just don’t play the course in a rainy day since it will be really muddy.

I played this course long ago and have not played it for 15 years. Not my favorite layout. It is beautiful to see but not all that great to play due to the target golf aspects. I will play it occasionally but the course will not be in my normal rotation. Pace of play was a bit slow because the groups in front lost a lot of balls. This course would be frustrating to anybody that is not extremely straight. Long hitters get penalized - I only hit 2 drivers all day. Typical Pete Dye layout.

Don’t need to bring your driver to this course. Accuracy trumps distance. Be preparers to lose several balls at least

Great layout beautiful lush course. Slow player infront of us searching for balls in every hole.

Course has outstanding layout. The drive from 1st green to 2nd tee takes about 4 minutes through a jungle. Same for drive to 9th tee. Very narrow course, and anything off fairways is usually a lost ball. Well worth the money. A definite most play course.

Breath taking views on every single hole!! They didn’t have golf towels or club cover accessories, and the front nine is still laughing at me....! However, after the initial grumpy golf through the front nine the glorious back nine appeared and delivered the welcoming spirit!!
It was windy this day but it was Stunning nonetheless!

By far, the most memorable course I’ve played to date solely due the incredible scenery! You find yourself getting lost in the views and forgetting that it’s a golf course you just payed to play! Next time I’ll play as golfer and not a bird watcher! The course is NOT the best maintained course at all, so don’t expect pristine course conditions, however the staff was excellent and the experience was great!
