Hawaii Kai Executive Golf Course

It’s a great course for the price, it’s very close to wiki, it has a few beautiful views. The course is a perfect place to play for a quick get away from Waikiki. It’s very reasonably priced.

When we checked in at Hawaii Kai Golf Course for our round the person in the pro shop let us know that He and Hawaii Kai Golf course "were not fans" of Golf Pass/ Golf Now because the course loses money on rounds that are booked through Golf Pass. This person's demeanor towards us was not at all friendly. How were we to know? It was my first time booking through Golf Pass. He suggested we not use it in the future and seemed mad at us for something that wasn't our fault.

The greens and tee box are in good condition but 80 % of the golf course is dirt. Granted this is a Par 3 executive course but at least make an effort to improve this course. It feels like they want you to play their championship course. I feel bad to see this executive course on this condition.

Only area maintained were the greens. If you hit it straight and the correct distance no issues. If not might not find your ball. Even if just short of the green. Would be a good beginner course if they mowed the short fairways between tee and green.

Also a few holes signs missing. Had to guess where next hole might be. Looks like they maintained the larger second course a little better.. if you have time spend $30 more any play the larger course.

I love this little course. The holes are challenging and the views are spectacular.

This is a review for the executive course. This is the kind of course where you expect to see players wearing tank tops, cut off jeans and bare feet. The description says its a Robert Trent Jones designed course, which is such a shame considering what a mess it is. There is some nice elevation to the layout. Definitely not worth $55 even with cart. The cart - I was warned that sometimes the gas doesn't work and have to pull the pedal back with your foot to make it run again. Plus I rented clubs - the SW and putter had the outer rubber stripped off it. It was just so comically bad. Driving range had nice mats, but the facility was worse than your local pitch and putt. The worst part of the day by far, though, was the course condition. I think these kinds of executive courses don't really expect you to play from the "fairway" but there is just a lot of patchy crabgrass around and around the green. The green and the "fringe" are essentially the same cut of grass - the only thing separating the green and the fringe is a line they cut into it with a string trimmer. Literally as slow as a shag carpet.

Shame on me for not taking some of the other online reviews more seriously. The bigger shame is to see a course with potential falling into such disarray. Save your money.

I would not play here again. Poor value for the money. Course was very busy and frustrating . Poor fairways and greens very slow.

I just being in paradise the layout and course would be nice , I guess when I went to driving range an saw nothing but brown dirt range thru me , the cart paths on the par 3 were dirt and the Tee boxes were rough but the overall experience was good,
