Great price with green fees includes cart.
Great location and layout. About 10 degrees cooler than the sea level courses and extremely hilly. Very difficult course and you must be very accurate or you will lose a lot of balls in the tall cane grass or trees. Surprisingly a lot of elder players on the course which slows down pace of play. Only course on island with bent grass greens but they are slower than mainland bent grass due to the moisture in the area. The golf carts need some more torque and power to go up the hills. Be prepared for a 15 minutes ride to 1st tee up the slope but only 5 minutes down after 18th hole. I do have to say that some of the employees are not as service oriented as you'd like/expect but I think that is just hit or miss with who they employ at that period of time.
Great course layout. Not the best condition, but being up in the mountainside, it is cooler than the resort courses Oceanside with great views. Can be challenging, play the correct tees for your ability.
Nice course in good shape, except for the sand traps. But that worked out as they were being played as ground under repair free drop! Great views and lots of birds.
Played the course about 12 years ago and thought it was a good course,with great vistas high above Kona. Played again today (11/2/17) and was very disappointed. The course has the potential to be a really great tract - challenging, interesting, different. However, a serious lack of maintenance over the years is evident throughout the course. Many of the sand traps were mostly dirt, abundant with weeds. The fairways were pretty beaten up with a mixture of grasses and textures. I’m sure the locals love the course as it’s affordable and fun, but if you are a serious golfer on vacation, my recommendation is that you avoid this course.
Friendly staff with wonderful views. Birds everywhere to watch your golf ability,lol.
