Reviews
Nice atmosphere
Very friendly staff. Despite very good weather on the day I played, there were only few players seen on the course. In this area, this course is definitely a right choice. The only thing you have to watch is weather, especially wind. I played on the other day when wind blew so strong. I could not stand upright. Ball fell from the tee.
The only reason for popularity is that the course is near reform area.
Among three courses, King, Beach and Lake, King course is the best, but you are allowed to play only when you pay full play fee. If you take twilight,you play Bach and Lake. Beach is better, but Lake is not a quality for the price, especially last three holes are something like a small town park. The only good point is it is very near to major resorts in Waikoloa,
Fun Course, Good Value on the Island.
Great layout. Challenging but fair. Some gettable holes but also a few food risk reward shots out there. A lot of the par 3’s played pretty long into the wind. I could see this being really tough with faster greens and high winds. Tee boxes were in pristine condition, but greens were a bit slow. Overall great value on the big island with some character.
Good fun track
This a really forgiving course for beginner to mid range golfers. Great views. Nice layout and the staff was very friendly. While not a “high end” resort course, it was in pretty good shape. Great value compared to other courses near the Mauna Lana resort area without breaking the bank!!!
Nice course, very well maintain with a very friendly and helpful staff. Good for a beginning golfer up to someone with Is there a 8 or higher handicap. May be a little too easy for a low handicap.
Waikoloa Village Course
First time playing this course. Course was in good condition, didn’t care for the bunkers though. I’ve never seen one with very small pebbles for sand. Greens were nice some slow and others were fast. Was a bit windy in the morning but tapered off about mid morning. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will come back.
Rating Waikoloa Village course
Very nice course. Well Maintained, excellent layout. Would definitely recommend this course to play.
Slow play No marshals!
We usually like to play this course but today we were behind a 3 some and they were playing the blues which by the way they hit the balls they should have been playing the reds! Some of their drives didn’t even go past the red ts So I’m thankful we didn’t see any pants down! But they clearly didn’t have any edict as far as letting us play thru or driving next to the greens or hitting multiple balls We really like the course , except for the rocks in the bunkers, we never hit out of them cause we don’t want to damage our clubs but otherwise we will be back and hopefully we won’t get behind some extremely slow players!
Great Public Course
Played it on vacation; Course was in very good condition, good layout with nice elevation changes. Very friendly staff, I hope to make it back someday.
