Westin Hapuna Beach Resort (Hawaii Island)

Everything and personnel, were outstanding.. course is not fun for a high handicap golfer or short drives. Other than that it was great.

Pace of play was very slow group 2 ahead of us more than 2 holes behind....the views made it tolerable....

When I checked in for my round and asked why there were so few other players, they said it was too windy for most people. I didn’t appreciate how much wind there was until I got onto the course. Wind was howling! I’ve played in wind before and this was as strong as any time! It was as much as 5-club wind.

Another factor affecting my round was greens condition. They had not fully recovered from aeration and were quite shaggy. However, their slow speed was appropriate for wind conditions.

Overall, I liked the course layout, routing, and great views. If you find a day with only a light breeze it’s a good course to play.

Course was very challenging especially with a little wind but it was in beautiful shape with scenic views.

We are on vacation and tried this course as it is near where we are staying. The positives. Nice course with lots of variety in hole layouts. Decent rental clubs sets. Virtually empty. We played our round in under 3 1/2 hours. Never waited on a shot. The negatives. We found out when we checked in at the pro shop that the greens were aerated YESTERDAY. While this MAY have been displayed on the Golf Now site it was not obvious as I did not see it. I was sensitive to this as the course we had planned to play was just aerated this week so we chose to change plans to Hapuna. Needless to say, lots of 3 putts. Golf club rental at Hapuna is usurious at $135 for 2 sets. I know it is a pain, but if you come to Hawaii and plan to golf more than 3 times, bring your own clubs! Finally, after all the 3 putts, the bar was closed (appears permanent as the furniture was gone). I sure could have used a gin and tonic.

Nice course with free golf range . Can’t beat the price. Definitely would go back

Ocean & mountain views on almost every hole! Greens were rolling fast! Goats grazing in the distance! Fantastic layout and overall wonderful course! You won’t be disappointed!

Really enjoyed the round. Course was in great shape. Greens were immaculate. Play only slowed the last 4 holes - which I hear is typical. Look for great rates on golf now.

Worth every penny! Not the easiest course, but mid-high handicappers (like me) can still have fun! Amazing ocean views on several holes. Rented clubs (TM Zims) that were in good shape, so really no complaints! And if you're ok with nature, it's a plus, since there are tons of birds and grazing goats that make it even more fun. Trust me, goats grazing are better than coyotes staring at you from feet away like in so many courses in SoCal;(

We had a great time playing at Hapuna Golf Course. We moved along well and found the course to be in nice shape. Little narrow little short from the regular tees but very fun afternoon.
