Whatever
Lots of rules and Covid related procedures which frankly, are unnecessary. U can’t get a virus off a cracker wrapper that has been out in the sun. Just sayin.

Golfing Again “I’m The Captain Right Now”
Finally playing again , Wonderful staff, such a pleasure to play Waikoloa Village Course. Pace of play was spot on Never feeling rushed or slowed down. Should be able to provide Beverage Cart person on course safely by not selling food but just drinks in cans or bottled water.
Overall another beautiful day in the land of Aloha

Great golf course. Greens extremely hard to read.
I play this course on a regular basis, Village resident and Men's Club member. It has been closed for almost two months ( Corona Virus), but it was still maintained by the greens crew. It is in the best condition it has ever been.

Very Pleasant Surprise
Love golfing on the Big Island.
Happened upon a course that is NOT a resort course (where they charge exorbitant prices)
Waikoloa Village Course.
A cut-above a muni course.
In very, very nice condition!
Has it all - dogleg right and left, water, up and down.
Have been back several times.
Bargain and elegance in one package!

Great golf experience
The golf course was great and they had the best solution regarding the pins. Excellent choice. The only negative experience was trying to set up a account and booking on line with Golfnow.com this was terrible .

Course Back from Covid Quarantine
We are local and have enjoyed this course in the past. The staff has done a fine job of balancing safety and playing fun. Good mix of challenges. This is a great value course, well maintained, beautiful views, and the flow of play has been very satisfactory. Because of social distancing still in force, there aren't any off-course amenities.
