This is a long course but has lots of wide open fairways and virtually no water. Of course, they put some nice bunkers out there to temp to from the blues. It is, after all, a Donald Ross Jr. course. You might see some wild goats out by the fifth hole. The light in the morning makes finding your ball... More

This course seems to have a better layout and condition than the Beach course. My biggest complaint are the bare set areas in the fairway or first cut of the rough. I thought the greens were in excellent shape. I would have rated this a 5* course except for the rough fairway condition. I think the mid to low handicapper... More

The course design and layout features some spectacular holes and vistas;however, the course is not maintained in top condition. The bathrooms are better than they were two year's ago, but still need some investment and maintenance. Worth playing if you can get a deal to play! Never once saw a food & beverage cart over all 18 holes even though... More

Golf course is not in as good a condition as it used to be, but after all you are in Hawaii. Pro shop personell could be more helpful, but the outside services are really good, especially Marco!

After playing both Kings and Beach, there is no comparison. The Kings is OK but you come to Hawaii to play great courses. I won't play this one again.

Very good value for a course. I would go back the next time I'm on the island. Well worth the visit.

This course is not as varied terrain as the Queen's Course, but is much better maintained, both the fairways and the greens, so a more satisfying play.
