Don’t waste your time

When the staff doesn’t play course, that should be an automatic clue!!! Grass long. Greens are not green. Tee boxes are bumpy. Carts are old. POWER OUTAGE today. No food l! If the ball misses fairway or rolls off green- consider it a lost ball.

VISITORS DO NOT PLAY-TERRIBLE COURSE

By far the worst course we have ever played. Paid $160 for a course that isn’t worth $25. Fairways over grown, greens horrible condition. They had a fleet of nice new golf carts which they reserved for locals and gave this former local girl who is now a nonresident the broken one which needed the gas pedal pulled up to drive. Total shame because Hawaii is only industry is tourism. Should probably treat your tourists a little bit better.

Hawaii Kai

Was not impressed with the whole courses condition, fairways need lots of work. Not very manicured, bare ground every where and bumpy. Greens need attention with spots of unwanted grass.

Solo Rd w my Lady

great course for ocean view pictures and enjoying sea breeze. bunkers weren’t sandy. all 18 greens had some sort of ugliness to it (bumpy, filled w dirt patches, uneven grass & weeds growing). might as well pay the higher prices in Kapolei / Ewa Beach area. $100 rd isn’t worth it here

Not Worth It

!Tourists beware!

Conditions were awful! Do not come. Half the course had grass, not a single bunker had actual sand in it.

Positives! Pace of play amazing. Finished the course in 3 hours with my partner. Please note we did play before 7am.

Do not recommend for price as all.

Lacking in water.

Course was definitely not worth the hot deal price. The course is suffering from lack of water.

Ok golf

It’s weird that I played at 2 other courses earlier in the week and how different the fairway and green conditions were. Way more brown than I was expecting and greens were in rough shape. I gouged one of my wedges in a hard bunker. But the no -resident rate was so much more reasonable than many of the courses on Oahu. The staff weee super nice. I still had a great time.

Needs improvement

We got the tt thru Golf now and I’m so glad we played with the discounted rate. It is not worth $160 for sure

Fairways and greens are in no way in great shape

ProShop has great customer service

Course has potentials and I hope it will be improved soon

Windward course on Oahu East side

I had a tee time of 12:48p on a Hawaiin holiday, and it was unusually quiet. Fairways in good condition, and fun play. Made good time for 18 holes. Good value on golf Now.
