This is truly a wonderful place to golf. The courses have great views. Hole 6 on the Beach Nine is amazing right against the ocean. Best of all is the hospitality of the staff. From the clubhouse to the outside services, they're great!

Waikoloa has three 9-hole courses to choose from. We played the King's and Beach course. Both courses were beautiful and the Beach course will take you near the beach with some nice views. The course was well maintained. The course does appear to be wide open, but you do need to look ahead as there are obstacles and OB out there. Tee boxes: The tee boxes were good with lots of grass, not sandy. There are a few holes that have elevated tee boxes. Fairways: The fairways were pretty nice, it is summer so the grass does get a little dry, the rolls farther. There is some undulation on the fairways so don't be surprised if the ball kicks left or right. It is the Big Island, so expect to see a lot of lava rocks on both sides of the fairways on some holes. There are also OB on other holes, trees, bushes and open dirt areas that you can't get to. Expect to see dog legs left and right and a few holes there is water. The Rough: These areas can get a little thick, so fairway is where you want to be. It's not so thick that it closes or opens your club face much. Greens: The greens rolled smoothly and did not see weeds, different grasses or bald spots. They were a little fast, probably due to being a little dry during the summer months. There is some undulation, but not a crazy amount. We still had a few birdies and able to make some longer putts. Look ahead as you get closer to the greens, there are drop offs at the edge on some of them. Most of the greenside bunkers are not deep, but they are wide. The good news is that there was sand in them to make a good bunker shot. Amenities: -Driving Range: they do have a driving range on property and with a round there is complimentary balls to warm up with. There is also a shot game area to practice -Putting green: it's a nice putting green next to the club house to get the feel of the course. Carts: the carts do not have GPS, so bring your own or range finder. -Restaurant: there is a restaurant here, but we did not partake on this trip. Staff: All the staff were helpful and really nice. The starter will give directions to the different courses on property. The club house staff will get you out as quickly as they can. Final thoughts: Great course to play, not the easiest course and you will still need to have good course management. But it was a fun course with some nice views. We will definitely come back on another trip, our time here was very enjoyable.

Great course, good value, highly recommend. We played the beach 9 and the kings 9. The beach course has more ocean views but Kings course has some pretty holes too. The pro shop has a ton of selection and logo items at reasonable prices. Space of play was quick, well under 4hrs. Be sure to checkout Mai Grille at the club house, one of the best food spots/restaurants on the island in my opinion.

Excellent value resort golf. Very friendly staff from the clubhouse to the starter who was very helpful. Although there's only one "ocean hole" there are great views and volcanic rock on just about every hole. Rental clubs are Cobra's and they were in good condition. Conditions are good, not great, but if you want great on the big island you're paying almost double what you'd pay here. I'd play here again next time I visit.

Had a great round of golf here with my daughter. They have a great family golf deal after 3pm with rental clubs included. The course was overall in decent condition for the average golfer. It is beautifully situated. If you get a chance to play the Beach course, hole 6 is amazing, right on the ocean. We played the Kings course which was nice especially for a below average golfer like myself. Not too challenging. Super nice staff too!
