Overall a fun course. Conditions are better than some years. Greens are better and not as many wet spots.

Driving range balls are an imbarressment. Desperately need to upgrade carts. Loud, smelly, not very environmentally conscious.

Save the money and make the drive

Kaui is filled with gorgeous and over the top priced golf courses. However, for the price and option to play 9/18 holes, no brainer. Especially if you’re vacationing on this side of the island or visiting the beach. Make a day to play golf while the family is at the beach. Meet at the Mexican restaurant attached to the course. Great drinks and food. Enjoy some live music and sports on the big screens. Believe me, soften your pockets hacks! Enjoy the ambiance and your wife will too!

Merry Christmas

BLUF: If you are an Active Duty military member or veteran save yourself a lot of money by calling in your reservation directly with the golf coarse. $586.00 was the GolfNow price for four golfers. If I had reserved directly with the golf course it would have cost $252.00. Live and learn! Nice course, limited services do to the holidays.

Beautiful course. Great value for vacation golf.

We were able to golf 3 times at this course during our vacation week. (Twice only nine holes and once 18…due to our other activities). The weather was fantastic for November. We picked early times to free up our afternoon’. We brought our own golf clubs to save money. (Rentals are available). The golf course is in great condition. The speed of play was fast since at our time there were no foursomes in front. On the turn, the Paco’s Tacos was open for a lunch burrito that was delivered to us via electric scooter. We purchased a souvenir visit at the golf shop. The cart attendant/starter cleaned our clubs at the end of the round and was available to drive us to the car so we didn’t have to walk back after cart drop off. We tipped him nicely. We will return again…January 2025

A good vacation experience

The course was in good shape. The people were friendly and helpful. The cart we used had GPS on board. Greens were nice. A bit more construction around the course than expected. But it did not hamper play. Overall, a great value.

Play at our pace

Had a grand time. Maybe due to the ‘season’, we were able to play at our pace without a group behind us - allowed an easy, fun round of golf

Beautiful Course BUT Confirm Course Maintenance Schedule

My wife and I loved the course, the views, and location. However, we were extremely disappointed that the website nor the staff in the Pro Shop, said anything about course maintenance being performed. There were 6 greens that had to have been aerated in the last day or two. Just complete sand. We came down two fairways that had sprinklers on while we were playing! This was in the middle of the day. I understand it’s Hawaii but charging full price green fees when the course is under maintenance is not right. This really spoiled our round and was disappointing to pay full price fees for the experience.
