Royal Hawaiian Golf Club

The golf course is beautiful and you can take many beautiful photos, but the fairway is a bit difficult and the greens are not very good

Bring a lot of extra balls! This is "target golf" at its finest. The rainforest setting is worth the price, as is golfing in Jurassic Park. It wasn't too busy. Several small groups were playing, and as a single, I was asked to play through several times. Be careful of golfers hitting into you. It's sometimes difficult to tell when the players ahead of you are in the fairway or off in the jungle looking for their balls. One downpour lasted for 1 hole, and then it cleared up. Bring a light water proof jacket.

I also rented clubs and they were decent.

It was extremely challenging. Loved that. If you are a high handicapper you better bring plenty of balls The guys in front of us had already gone thru a couple of sleeves by hole 2. Fortunately they let us play thru. Pace of play was very slow. It was worth the wait because of the beauty. Bring a rain jacket.

Amazing course with some of the best views I have ever seen in my life. Pace of play is a little slow as most people stop to take pictures because the course is unreal. Had a great time would definitely go back.

Was a fun and yet difficult course. Trees everywhere but the fairways and greens were in excellent condition! Enjoyed it and well worth it.

I never write reviews but I believe this needs one. Some of the most stunning views I have ever seen on a golf course, but some of the worst turf conditions. The staff in the shop was great, the food was good, outside staff was friendly. But just a fair warning, I don't know if I had a putt roll true all day. Bumps and dead spots all over the greens. I asked if this was just because of summertime and was told that they have been this way for years. I would maybe pay $25 to go hike the course... but I won't pay to play there again. I just believe some transparency is necessary if you are asking for a good amount of money to play there.

I like this course ver very much.

We were on vacation and golfing is always an activity we won’t miss. At the course, you’ll be astonished by the views from many holes.Both of the tropical forests and high rising mountains are beautiful.

The course itself has various terrains that can be challenging to all levels of golfers 🏌️. . Make sure you have brought enough balls or you can find buying after 9 holes can be costly. :) the Green is slower than it looks like. Some spots need patches to be good. Rough is really rough on the course with high tropical “grass”. The pace is a little slow on a busy day but on weekdays feels OK.

As a vacationer, leaving the course without a car is a bit challenging. We used ride shares and the waiting is about 30 minutes every time.

Price is high but matches the experiences. If you can find a deal, this is a no brainer to go!

Toughest course I’ve ever played, with most chance of enjoyment erased by the 5 hour and 45 minute pace of play on a day the starter said wasn’t busy. No course employees seen between starter and cart return. Inexcusable. Blind shots, forced carries, narrow landing areas, with plenty of jungle to grab your balls. Range closed. Single digit handicappers can easily lose half a dozen balls. Some amazing mountain and valley views, but better experienced on a hike vs. an expansive round of golf. Have fun in Hawaii- play somewhere else.

This is our second time -laying this course. We are from Florida, and have played beautiful courses across the entire Midwest and eastern states on the mainland. This course is in a beautiful jungle, and is among the top three courses we have ever played.

On vacation and brought spouses out to enjoy the views. For one set of rental clubs and two additional riders charged almost $150. Greens were in terrible condition, cart path only on front, rough hasn’t been mowed in weeks,(if miss fairway by a foot it was a search party) and driving range was closed. It’s. $50 course maximum

Beautiful setting just not great condition on the front 9, which is understandable due to the wetness. Back nine is much better condition but not as spectacular setting. Very enjoyable just don't worry about your score.

You pay for the views when you play this course. Very picturesque. Conditions were below average. Bare spots all over the fairways. Greens were overgrown, bumpy, and filled with bare spots. Putting was unenjoyable to say the least.

Quite possibly the most picturesque course I’ve ever played. Many blind shots made it especially challenging. The greens could use some love. The practice range hasn’t been available since Covid.

Absolutely gorgeous course. It is golfing through a rainforest on the side of a mountain! Greens were almost unputtable, I wonder if it was something to do with the grass they can grow there. Staff was sup par. Shop closed at 3pm with no heads up, just generally rude to us. No one was there you think for $200+ a round they would be more friendly. No on course beverage cart, range was closed.

I felt like I was in a beautiful rain-forest or jungle in the front 9. The course is very scenic and beautiful.

The greens were bumpy and had not quite healed after recent punching. The fairways are somewhat narrow and the adjacent rough was tall and very thick grass that could use some mowing. So you need to stay in the fairways or your ball will get swallowed up by the rough. The course.is very challenging so if you can't hit the ball straight, bring a lot of balls.
