  Having played at courses both in the US and abroad I was expecting more of a PGA course. This course is beautiful. However, it is not as challenging as one would expect considering the caliber of pros that have played it. The weekend player on vacation should have no problem keeping the ball in the fairways, with normal focus and concentration. The greens are wide and forgiving. For the duffer on vacation it is a bit over priced but still allot of fun...

  First off I'll say that I did not think it was worth the money. That said it really is a beautiful course, first rate practice facility, very well stocked pro shop and the finishing holes(15-17)....wow. It was also pretty cool to see all the big names' scorecards framed in the hallway ( Phil, Tiger, Ernie, etc)kind of like a hard rock cafe!!! After playing Kiahuna first though I thought Poipu was a good bit overpriced ($75 - $90 cheaper would be more appropriate), perhaps the course is riding on it's rep' of having hosted the Grand Slam????

  In the late afternoon with the sun setting over the coast there really isn't a prettier spot to be in the world. The design is good enough to test the pros, but not as penal as the Prince Course, which can really eat your lunch - so its better for mid and high-handicappers. Winds can be high on this part of the island so get your low ball ready.

  This is a very good course - pretty good on front nine, but the beautiful finishing holes are absolutely spectacular. The conditioning of the course was very good. The hotel here is a large one that hosts a lot of business meetings and conventions.
