Loved it!!

Shawn (starter) was very helpful! Course was in great shape and very interesting to play - we will definitely want to come back with what we learned the first time. Really enjoyed the back nine;)

Restaurant was only 5/10 - would not recommend eating there though after round drinks would be OK - no view of course though.

Kiahuna Golf

Always enjoy playing the course. The greens were not in great shape, mainly because people don’t fix their ball narks.

Green greens

Pretty nice course.

We were a twosome and two groups that we caught up to immediately let us play through without us having to ask.

Greens are 10/10

Too much $ for that course!

Staff was friendly. Driving range in poor condition. Range balls were old golf balls probably found on the course. No beverage cart on the course. Water was unavailable too. No marshall on the course. Pace of play very slow. Condition of course was average. Also under staffed. Probably because if. Covid-19. Restaurant and bar was closed after our round. No cold beverages and food to finish the day of golf. Sincerely, Ken

No driving range

Driving range was closed so using rental clubs was difficult. No explanation why it was closed. For the price of rental and green fee not a bargain.

Nice Course; Reasonable Green Fees

Kiahuna is a quality course with reasonable green fees. It is not on the ocean as other courses are thus the lower fees. But course conditions were excellent. I played twice in a week and finished in 3 hours and then 3 1/2 hours. The pro shop is sparse with merchandise possibly due to cover? Was disappointed that the restaurant did not have any candy bars. Other than that, a very pleasant couple of rounds of golf.

Quality course for the money

Excellent value for the cost compared to some of the othet Kauai courses. Fairways and greens were in good shape. Course was not busy - I played as a single in 3 hours. Pro shop is pretty sparse with regards to merchandisr. Maybe due to Covid? Disappointed with the restaurant as they did not have sny candy bars which should be a staple. Will play again in a couple of days. Would recommend.
