Nice course

Some rough spots in the fairways. No sand, just crushed stone in the traps. Otherwise good condition and layout. Friendly staff and good pace of play for large number of players. Enjoyed playing and would recommend others to play.

Great course, great value

Waikoloa Village Course is a great course and a great value. It is forgiving with wide fairways but still challenging, especially the par 3's. It was raining when we started and the course was practically empty, but the rain quit after three holes and we pretty much had the course to ourselves. It was great!

Outstanding day of golf coming all the way from Wisconsin during the holidays!

We really enjoyed our round of golf at the Waikoloa Village golf course. The course was in great shape and everyone that worked there was very professional and friendly.

pleasant course

I found it odd that you don't get the keys for the cart until your tee time, which means any valuables have to stay with you while you practice on the putting green.

Greens were not that well groomed

Great Course with Ocean Views

The Village course in Waikoloa is a well kept course with friendly people and great rates. Its a Hawaii quality course at low cost. When you get tire of paying resort rates, go play it and see for yourself!
