First time at this course not knowing what to expect
This course was truly well kept Manicure conditions
The staff was very friendly and courteous, which helps speed up of the process on the first Tee
I would recommended Course to anyone in the area. It was a beautiful day and a wonderful experience will come back to play once again.
The only thing I recommend is not to hit your ball in the center. The sand traps are not quite white sand but very small pebble stones not sure why but don’t land in the sand trap and you’ll be fine.
Course was very nice and we had very little wind (which apparently is somewhat unusual).
My only complaint was that the sand traps were more gravel than sand.
First time on the Big Island
First time on the Village course, great rate on tee off .com, Staff was great, from pro shop to starter, to beverage cart .
Played a replay same day , $40 , course was challenging and fun, good greens,
Will play again before leaving the island
Beach/Lake Courses
Unique layout, hole 6 on the ocean did not disappoint. Greens/bunkers in rough shape, everything else well kept. Worth playing if staying in Waikoloa. Great warmup/range area (included).
Diamond in the rough
Waikoloa Village is a diamond in the rough course. I believe it could be great but is currently good. The staff there are phenomenal. The range and carts are solid. Fairways and greens were in great shape. The only quibble I have is with the choices to go with a kitty litter like pebbly sand in the traps. It’s easily to work through but could be swapped out for something nicer.
Great weather & course
The weather was great, fairways are open so it's hard to lose a ball and the course was in great shape. Very nice practice area.
Just OK. Nothing to write home about
Overall: Course condition was sketchy. Fairways needed mowing, greens were pretty chewed up, and there was no sand in the bunkers...literally. They use small gravel instead. Playing partner had scratches on sole of sand wedge. Pro Shop/Cart barn folks were great and drink cart person was wonderful.
This is definitely a "low cost" course for Hawaii. Especially if you consider Mauna Kea ($$$$) and Mauna Lani ($$$$) in the same area.
However, you can find better value if you get the multiple day (at least two day) package at the Beach Courses at Waikoloa just down the road.
