Beautiful #7 hole by the beach

Golf course wasn’t nice, but #7 Hole by the ocean made us everything so special. Whale, Indigo colored water, white splash, green, palm trees, lava rocks. We enjoyed golf very much.

Good Layout With Interesting Holes

I've been playing the Beach course for many years, and it's always on our list to play every time we visit. It has an interesting layout with some very fun holes. It's not really on the beach, but there are some holes with wonderful views....More

Deceiving title...

To call this golf course as having anything to do with the “beach” is misleading - save one hole out of 18. The course itself was good but I was bummed by how little of the ocean I saw while playing the round. The staff...More

Nice Course, Need a New Starter

This is a good layout (Beach). Interesting holes. Course was in good shape. Had some burned out spots but didn’t impact our play. The starter however was more interested in practicing at the range than providing helpful info. Felt I was interrupting his practice session....More

Are there golf club rentals available and what are the rates? 3 decent golfers and one beginner. We are staying at the resort July 5-11. Thanks

One of the golfers I played with said he got rentals from the course. You can call the course and ask that question and get rates. 808- 886-7888. I got good rates by playing 3 rounds.
