Nice layout with multiple tees

I have played here every year I have vacationed in Kauai and have enjoyed it every time. Very fair and playable layout with a good amount of challenges tot test every part of your game. The greens were in great condition as were the fairways and tees. It is worth playing at least once. No holes near the Pacific but nice views from a few holes.

Poor conditions

Greens were in poor condition. Some (numbers 12 & 18 in particular) were horrible, without a doubt the worst I’ve played on since my “muni” days. Otherwise this was a nice course. Lastly the carts were ancient, comparable to what you might find at a muni.

Great course at a good price

Had played here in the past and really enjoy the course. It could use some TLC and don't expect much from the Clubhouse, but for the money it is great. Quick pace and not crowded

Don’t bother; go elsewhere and pay a bit more

This course seemed fine from description but the driving range was sad, you pay for a bucket of mismatched balls, no towels in the cart, no waters in the cart or on the course, and no starter. The staff in the ProShop (a stretch to call it that) didn’t communicate to the pairings and people just started when they wanted? The cart GPS was so small you needed a magnifying glass to read it.
The one redeeming factor was the friendly gentleman pulling carts and collecting range ball tickets …you grabbed your own bucket from a shack.

Best score ever

Had my best game ever. Very narrow challenging fairways. Was confused at times which way the hole was facing. But overall had a great time.

Great Course - Worth Every Penny

This was one incredible golf course. We played the south course. The views were beautiful. The holes were challenging but not too difficult. If I ever return to Konna, I would play here again.

We booked our golf through the Fairmont Resort. As a member of the loyalty program (no charge to join) we received free rentals. The rented clubs (driver and irons) were Taylor Made Stealth.

As an aside, we got a few great bounces off the lava rocks; but you never know how that will go.

Kiahuna golf

Excellent course in great shape but the play was a little slow for me. I did wind up, jumping a few foursomes and that helped a little bit.
