Olomana Golf Links
Played On 01/31/2015Not worth it.
Green fees have been raised since Pacific Links purchased the course although the course is basically the same with muddy terrible fairway conditions especially on the front 9. Cosmetic improvements to the snack bar (a new roof), landscaping near the clubhouse, and new seats at the driving range seems to be the reasons for raising the fees. Greens are ok but some of the bunkers have virtually no sand and is as hard as cement. Number 14 is now a temporary par 3 instead of a normal par 4 although no mention of this was made when we purchased the green fees. Pace of play was also extremely slow although a marshall was spotted driving around several times but making no effort to speed up slow players. Although we got a discounted rate on golfnow.com, it was not worth it. Olomana used to be a fun reasonably priced track for the locals but is now no longer affordable nor worth it.
Royal Hawaiian Golf Club
Played On 12/25/2014Good features, muddy fairways, course partially closed.
Good: interesting holes, challenging undulating greens, nice scenery, Driving range & practice area greatly improved from before.
Bad: Only allowed to play back 9; front 9 was closed due to green renovations. We were never forewarned before purchasing the green fees which was unfair. Fairways were very muddy although it was sunny; consequently no roll and very messy. Some greens were in very poor shape with weeds....at least management is addressing this with the green renovations. Hopefully better in a couple of months.
