Waikoloa Resort Golf - King's Course

Description

A 30 minute drive North of Kona and you have arrived at Waikoloa Resort on the beautiful leeward coast of the island of Hawaii. Host to two championship golf courses and hotel and ocean access, Wiakoloa is in a great natural climate for year round golf. The King's Course opened in 1990 and is a contrast to the Beach Course design mixing challenging play with lava field boundaries, rolling hills, and elevated views of picture postcard Hawaii.

Highlights: Azure blue ocean, lush green fairways, and stark black lava rock wrap this course design with all the beauty one associates with Hawaii Golf.  
Challenges: The course design is more like a traditional "Scottish course" with
9 acres of water hazards, with 6 lakes, and 85 bunkers mid-fairway and surrounding greens. Holes 3 and 6 have two separate tee choices.

The King's course was designed by former British open Champion Tom Weiskopf and compliments the resort play of the other courses in the region. With a design that winds through the rolling volcanic topography, you will be happy to find wide playable fairways that are framed by towering mountain views of Mauna Kea. Most all of the King's course holes play inland from the resort coast, so your exposure to the commotion by the ocean is minimal, but the beautiful blue seas are visible in the distant background on a number of holes.
