Must Play on Big Island

Truly spectacular setting. Played North Course the day before and this also had amazing views but South course has spectacular holes with amazing views. Generally very playable off the tees although I had a good driving day. Played with my wife who is a good 18 handicap and she loved it and very playable. I truly think this is a must play. Use GOLFNOW. Saved almost $100.00 for the two of us compared to price on the course website. Spent it on some golf shop goodies!

Excellent Afternoon

After playing Mauna Lani - South 25 years ago, it was time to try the North course. The staff was very friendly and allowed us to tee off a half hour early since there was little traffic. The course was in excellent condition, rough not very difficult and greens in good shape if not a bit slower than I expected. Typical upscale resort conditions. There was moderate difficulty which increased the last few holes as the winds picked up considerably. Only one hole finished beautifully by the ocean with the rest winding through condos or lava fields. The price was higher than necessary (it is Hawaii after all) . This was a one and done event. No need to play again.

Beautiful course.

An amazing course with beautiful views of the ocean. Greens are tricky to read, fairly quick...a little firm, possibly dried by the extremely high winds today. Combination of manicured fairways and unforgiving lava roughs made for an interesting round. Drivies in the fairway got a lot of extra roll but if you hit the lava, you are toast. Staff was great. Pace of play was good probably because the nasty wind kept people away today.

Stunning

This is probably the most beautiful course I’ve ever played. Even the practice area was very well maintained. The fairway were beautiful and the greens rolled nicely.

Great track

Great layout. Excellent conditions. Greens a little slow. A couple great scenic holes by the ocean. One of the best resort/public courses on the island. Will definitely play it again
