About Waikoloa Beach Resorts (Hawaii Island)

Waikoloa Beach is a 1,350-acre master-planned resort community on the Kohala Coast of Hawaii (Big) Island. It offers multiple hotels, plus additional condominium and villa units. It is home to a wealth of water sports, restaurants and nightlife, as well as three 18-hole golf courses. Accommodations include the Hilton Waikoloa Village, Hilton Grand Vacations, Waikoloa Beach Marriott Resort & Spa, Marriott's Waikoloa Ocean Club and the Lava Lava Beach Club Cottages.

Hade a Nice Time

I took a friend and we wanted to play a more open course and Waikoloa Village met our needs. We had a great time. Play slowed up at times but only for 5 or 6 holes. It gave us time to admire the beautiful vistas.

Great Value

Beautiful day except last two holes with a two club wind.

Apparently the sand will not stay in the bunkers so small pebbles are used.- not appealing.

Great course

Pace of play was fantastic. The starter did is job . I was a single player with my wife sharing the cart. He let us go before a group of 8 local players. I played in 31/2 hrs . Greens were quick enough . Layout was correct. Just surprise about the sand traps who have little stones instead of sand. I played few few time and it was ok. Great time on this course

Smoke rising from Mauna Loa in the background

Loved seeing a bit of Mauna Loa erupting in the background. I paid for my wife to ride and the time she had and the company she provided made my day. Weather was perfect and staff was nice.

Great Layout, Pace of Play poor!

Course layout great - Robert Jones Jr design. Course conditions were slightly below expectations. Pace of play very slow with several 5-somes on a Wednesday! No amenities on course.

Very reasonable

Greens are in great shape but some of the fairways and rough have damage from the nenes. Nice layout.

Course can and did play extremely slow with a group a few holes ahead having 2 open holes in front of them and no marshals. Still if you can get a good price its one to play.

Slow play

Typical public course

They don't care about pace of play just give us our money and hack away

Back nine was faster

Cheaper than other courses but was priced closer to its playability
