One of best of Oahu! Maybe best public?!

Very well maintained, fun holes a little bit of everything. Great to be able to play such a well conditioned course this time of year since I'm from NorCal. Come to island once a year to stay with in laws.
Staff was great from club house ,driving range to starter. Not the most difficult track but not as easy as some course on island. Open fairways but tough approach shots. Greens in great shape. Elevated tee boxes where fun and water hazards are well positioned. Water hazards are unquestionably the signature of this course. Plenty of people playing in the afternoon pace a bit slow. And food the course had at snack shack disappointing. Top of list to play again on Oahu!

Happy in Hawaii

This course was highly recommended and it had very good reviews. I was not disappointed at all, and all the reviews were very accurate. It was in great shape, the staff was friendly and the clubhouse/pro shop were outstanding! Thoroughly enjoyed my experience and would definitely recommend this course to any visitor to Oahu!

Very nice course

I would play it again. Pricey, but nice course. Forgiving and fair. Greens and Fairways were in nice condition. Pace of play was 4 hours, however it rained hard before we teed of so maybe the tee sheet was not full. Anyway, if you ok with the $199 USD per round then I would recommend it.

Nothing fancy

Course played well and was highly maintained, but visually nothing amazing. The wow factor at nearby Ko Olina is much better.

High green fees, horrible pace of play and no disclaimers

I am in Oahu for a single week and wanted to play a great course in the area. This course was recommended by a local to me so I figured I would give it a shot. Golf course is beautiful but everything else about this place makes it unenjoyable. I did play at twilight rates which was still 150$ and waited on just about every single tee box. We called the golf shop and they explained University of Hawaiis womens team was playing a practice round. That is completely fine if golfers were aware of this. This set the pace back 30-40 minutes so my now 4 hour and 30 minute round I was unable to finish. Even with twilight rates it is expensive and could have played 20 other courses and most likely finished. Only good thing about this course was the conditions but not even possible to enjoy with all the other annoyances. 40 minutes from Wakiki beach and felt like I wasted a day waiting at every tee time. I normally dont leave reviews but this felt warranted to give everyone a heads up plan to play a 5 hour golf round for a high green fee and waiting on every single tee box. Hope this helps!

Not what I expected

Pace of play is awful, course Marshall doesn’t help address. Group in front of us, hit multiple tee shots on every hole and never racked bunkers. Rental clubs are $75 a set and are 5 year old clubs. Driving range, you hit of mats. Proshop staff friendly and they did have nice proshop!

Great course. Even greater staff.

I did not predict rain... but it rained... a lot. Despite the weather I had a blast thanks to the staff at this course. Super friendly and accomodating. I stopped after the first 9 because I was drenched. Ate breakfast. Then played the back 9 after the weather appeared to clear up a bit. Everyone from the staff in the pro shop, the restaurant, and definitely the cart barn and starter were fantastic.
Super friendly and accomodating. Really incredible experience. Highly recommended. Many golf options on Oahu but I will be coming back to play this one again. Oh, and the golf course is gorgeous!

Excellent Tournament Course

Came out on vacation a couple weeks ago. I regularly play a TPC course in my hometown and Kapolei was very comparable in difficulty and quality. Only complaint would be that none of the food offered at the snack bar was in stock. We played in the afternoon but the course was pretty empty, so it was weird they had no food. Empty course was awesome though, we played as a twosome and took our time enjoying each shot. Chipped in from about 20 yards on 14, a moment I’ll remember for a long time. Greens are immaculate, with truly deadly false fronts. The type of course to eat your lunch and have you convinced you can take 10 strokes off the next time you play. Highly recommend this course, maybe just grab some lunch before your round.
