Great course! Really windy the day we played, but sunny and warm. Whale & dolphin siting on the holes by the ocean - great views from those holes! Fun course to play!

Golfing in 40+ miles per hour winds, not fun

Actually too windy to play, winds not my ball off of the tee numerous times, not to mention almost blowing me over a few times.

Would play with winds like that again.

North Course

I have played the course before and the vistas and the layout are fantastic. Greens were a bit slow but given it is Hawaii and the wind was up they did have them rolling slower.

Several holes had a lot of damage on the fairways - some in key landing areas. Some areas were not GUR which seemed odd as the ball was unplayable and no stance possible.

What surprises me is for $300 the little service you get. For example - no one met me to take clubs from car, no confirmation of time, no set-up on cart (I did it), no one at range, etc. The Pro Shop person seemed to be almost angry when checking in. I felt bad I was about to golf there. This is a Troon Club! Overall very poor service other than the nice attendant at end who cleaned my clubs. Need to be better - will not return with that service.
