Pace too slow

This is a beautiful course and understandably golfing. Hawaii is very expensive. But a five hour round where you are waiting every single shot to play is unacceptable. Played twice in one week and there was never a martial existent to speed up play in addition beverage card, person nowhere to be seen Love the course and it’s in beautiful shape. However, the greens are extremely slow and the piece of place is unacceptable. It won’t stop us from playing it but if you don’t play at 7 AM, expect a five hour round or more.

Beautiful course, friendly staff

Second time playing Ko Olina on a short Hawaii trip. Beautiful course. Challenging with the wind, false fronts, and water hazards. Pace was slow as they let a five some play ahead of us, but the course Marshalls somehow got them to speed up. All the staff was exceptionally friendly. The Aloha shines!

Weather was nice

Weather was perfect the day we played. Tough part was pace of play. We didn’t realize kids are free after 3:00 so that was annoying waiting at every hole while the kids hacked around! I would recommend you get an early tee time to avoid that. Course is a little rough on the maintenance side. No one fixes their divots etc so expect some bump putting. However the staff was super nice and great selection in the Pro Shop.

Course was in great shape! Pace of play was very good!

Extremely friendly staff! Everyone at Ko Olina was very helpful. The course was in great condition. The greens are challenging due to the many false fronts. Beautiful 18th hole!

We loved this course. It had plenty of challenges but bail out options were there. Greens were awesome and rest of course was very good. Staff was friendly and helpful. Gorgeous surroundings. Course was pricey but good value.

Poor value

Too expensive for what you get. Slow pace. No course Marshall seen. No ball washers on course. Saw cart girl only once in 3 hours. Similar courses in Myrtle Beach are a third the cost of this place. Our golf cart’s break was also inoperative. I’m in vacation so I paid but I won’t do it again. There’s greater value elsewhere. Sure, nice course, very friendly staff, but not nearly worth over $400 for the two of us to golf. Way too expensive for what you get.

Golf now problem

I got to the course and my playing partner called to cancel due to Covid. The golf course told me that since I booked on golf now I had to cancel with them. I tried to cancel on the app but it gave me a message that I could not cancel my partners round. I called golf now several times and after enduring their AI got transferred to an agent however each time I received a message that agents are not available. This was one hour before my scheduled round and I had no other options than to pay the original amount even though I was a single player now. Unacceptable.
