Wow, what a gorgeous course and in the finest of conditions. Perfect greens and lush fairways, wonderful ocean views. We got a "good" price but could not go out early because of it, even though the course was pretty empty. When on this island, this course ranks slightly ahead of the Marriott Lagoons, but we would play both again when we visit next. IMO, much better than Princeville Makai and the drive was easier. I don't see it listed, but the local Pukea public course is worth a visit - bargain price, Hawaii weather and nice back nine. It's no Poipu or Lagoons however.
Would travel: 30-60 Miles, Vacation Worthy
Bottom line: I would play again, Ranks with the best in this price level
