Excellent course

Course is in great condition, only reason I give a 4 is there are some dead spots on the greens. This is a par 60 so round was just around 3 hours. Views are incredible especially for a visitor like myself. If you need a quick round on O’ahu this is the place to do it

Must see - affordable golf & Incredible Views

Despite the fact it rained 99.9% of the time and we were soaked it was an amazing experience.

It's a pretty challenging par 3 & Par 4 course with beautiful rolling hills, plenty of elevation changes and tight fairways.

Most holes are fairly forgiving but the views are worth every penny.

In the rain you can see countless mountain side waterfalls on the back 9.

Hidden Gem! Must Play!

It's a pretty course! It rained the entire.day we were out there and we still had an absolute blast.

The par 3s are tricky, the par 4s have some narrow and unforgiving fairways. The greens have great challenges and the rolling hills throughout the course make every hole a challenge!

Great elevation changes and amazing views.

Fun par 3&4 public course

Fun, affordable par 3 and 4 course. Front nine is typical flat, side by side public course layout. Back nine is the total opposite; elevation changes and water hazards with amazing views of the bay.

Greens were in excellent condition. Very affordable and play the course several times each time I visit.

Terrible

I know golf is more expensive here in Hawaii but $74 for a “Hot Deal” at this place is ridiculous. Didn’t even realize it was only a par 60 course until I was handed a scorecard. When you arrive the parking lot, the sidewalks, and the building all look dirty and disgusting. No Marshal regulating pace of play. Giant patches of dirt on the greens. Finally called it quits after the 7th hole. However the staff was extremely friendly so there’s that but I wouldn’t try this course again even if it was free. Just not even worth the time.

As good as you can hope for from a golfnow deal

Driveable par 4s and mostly manageable par 3. Couple bangers with wicked up/down slope with ridiculously impressive views. Yes greens have imperfections and yes it’s kinda rough around the edges. But main playing areas of the course are more than playable. If you can hit a 120 yard shot, you’ll have fun. I am a 2 handicap, wife is a 45 handicap, it was fun for both of us. I’m not telling you it’s perfect, I’m telling you will have fun and the views are draw dropping.

I request a refund

The golf course was closed today due to strong rain and wind yesterday. There was no information, and when I arrived, the golf course was closed and it was said that it will be open from tomorrow. Your customer service center was not connected by phone. I request a refund
