1st time playing yesterday with my wife and son. My sons girlfriend was allowed to ride along and enjoy the scenery. Was to be a nice day weather wise but it rained on us the front nine. No worries, played anyway and still had a great time. Course is not super challenging but enough to make it interesting for 20 handicappers. They had aerated the greens but didn't matter, back nine no rain and harder but more picturesque. We played in right around 4 hours, so no back up or waiting. I will definitely make this one of my go to golf place in Kauai. Prices very reasonable and the staff very friendly and helpful

Beautiful course and great breakfast burritos. Bad part was they just punched the greens a week ago and they should not be played still. Wish they would of told us that before we booked. If the greens were good I would give the course 5 stars.

Beautiful course in great condition. Played twilight for $45 with a cart, this is a great deal. I didn't bring clubs and rented a set for $37, the clubs were really good quality and were perfect.
The course is well maintained and in great shape. Most of the holes have pretty open fairways. The par threes are fun to play. The course has a few challenging holes and you just have to play smart. The greens are nice and in great shape. The entire course is surrounded by beauty, some of the most breathtaking views on any course in Hawaii.
You can book the tee time online, easy and no problem. The club house is nice and the staff from the starter to the guys that take care of the clubs and carts were friendly and professional. They were very helpful in providing the layout of the course.
Great experience at Puakea Golf Course and I will definitely be back to play again. Thank you for the great experience.Helpful 11Thanks 0Love this 8Oh no 0 - Greg Z.Kapolei, HI03137Aug 21, 2023
Nice kept greens. Challenging course, more difficult than I thought. Lost a few balls to the water gods...Looking forward to playing here again.

One of the best courses I've played in Kauai and fantastic layout, range, view and landscape. I'm shocked at the less than stellar reviews as I am very sensitive to poor conditions and rude service.
If I'm being 100% honest, they could use more restrooms and some water stations
I'm a fan!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Olivia G.Diamond Head - Kapahulu - St. Louis, Honolulu, HI2275Nov 30, 2023
Come here often and went with family today & was harassed to put clothes on because I'm in a GOLFING tank top? Told four times after he drove by to check if I covered up, without my shirt being overshowing what so ever.
For a male to focus on me and my wardrobe that's For golf, ironically, is sexist unneeded harassment, he kept using "girls have to wear collared shirts too."
I look around and every women was in a NON collared shirt. Also been here tons before, never had a comment on my outfit choice! It's golf in Kauai! Lighten up brah
Continuously told us to wear our soaked clothes to cover up after we voiced it's raining/freezing cause they're soaked. We took a Bathroom stop and he followed/corrected us for the path we took (while we stayed on the cement to get back)
He was on our case for no reason, maybe a bad day but uncle shouldn't be working here if he's not able to lighten up to residents that come and spend $$ often.
I won't be back as a resident!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ken R.Santa Rosa, CA0291Sep 16, 2023Updated review

The pro shop was really super great in allowing us to modify our scheduled tee time. Course is in great shape. Incredibly spectacular views very well maintained. Overall my wife and I really appreciated our round today.
Sep 11, 2018Previous reviewHad an issue with a discount voucher. Could not be more pleased with the response by the Puakea staff. They really helped in explaining the voucher and took the time to review and print out the necessary forms so that we could play the next day. Many kudos to the Puakea staff. Thanks.

My husband played here 3 times while we vacationed in Princeville 2 weeks ago. He really enjoyed it. He thought the greens were in good shape, played fast and given the windy conditions (there was a storm rolling through the state at that time), quite challenging. A cart is required due to the long distance between greens and tee boxes.
Shout out to Diego in the pro shop , who was very helpful and offered tips on how to book online to get the best rate.
I was allowed to ride with my husband during his afternoon rounds. It's a pretty course with mountain views. He definitely recommends this course for ease of access and friendly staff.
Another plus is that we ordered a lunch box from the grill, which was delicious, especially the spam musubi and ginger fried chicken.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
