Course Review and Comments
Definitely a better players course. If you handicap is 12 or higher consider going to Wailua or the Poipu area for less challenging courses. If playing here, purchase the 3 round package ($345) or play in the skins game to get the kamaaina (local) rate. Course was great fun and one I would consider if I could only play one course for the rest of my life. Memorable.

Loved the layout. Nice mix of hard, extremely hard and resort-style holes. Holes 1, 2, 7, 10, 12, 13, and 15 are very challenging. Good number of risk reward holes for the better player. |

Greens a little slow but in good shape. fairways in good condition, but jungle off nearly every hole is a little rough. Also could turn down the wind in a couple of places. |

Starter very informative, GPS on the carts, and beverage cart only comes by twice a round due to layout Be sure to take the cool towel at the end of the round, you'll appreciate it. |

Well-stocked pro shop with extremely friendly and helpful staff. Enough reasonably priced items to buy some souvenirs for the boys back home. |

Go with the three round deal, it lets you play three top courses on the island for one price. Loved Princeville, although it's not for the high handicappers. This course will test your golf game. T

Worth the experience but not for a short hitter or high handicapper. The wife ended up riding the cart and enjoying it more. Beautiful but a real test.

This is not for a high handicapper or short hitter like me. I ended up enjoying it more as a rider. You better be a good player of have a lot of old balls to waste.

A great course design that I have played for yrs in very bad condition. Fairways bare, greens bare and inconsistent, sand traps without sand.

beautiful layout. tough, but hit the ball straight and you'll be rewarded. lots of carries over ravines, so bring ammo if you're not on your game. greens were a bit rough, but overall a real pleasure.

This course bent me over and spanked me good. It doesn't help things we decided to play from the 7,000-yard tees, which isn't even the back set. By the time I'd gotten to the back nine my swing was a

One of the more difficult tracks I've played, but also very challenging in a positive way. I would not consider it a friendly course to a higher handicapper, especially your average woman. My wife (25
