Hawaii Prince Golf Club

Nice course way too far and too much traffic to drive out to play this course. I can’t believe that the Prince Hotel in Waikiki takes their guests by bus all the way out to this course. Large dining area big enough for banquets and golf tournaments. The course itself is not special, greens are way too hard and the sand traps are not well manicured the course needs four more Third World greens keeping people to take better care of the greens rake traps and there should be 150 yard trees are markers

Nice course. Pretty flat and a bit boring scenic wise. Good price.

If your looking for Hawaii golf. THIS IS NOT THE PLACE TO COME. The course, even at the local rate, was over priced (local rate is half of norm rate). The greens and fairways were reminiscent of a par three golf course when I was younger that you paid 3 bucks for 18. It was also managed in similar fashion. The cart guys were not informative nor friendly. The course is set up as a 27 hole course and there was no starter at the first hole of any of the three 9hole sections. There was trash throughout the course. The course layout was very flat and not well thought out. Most holes teed off back in the same direction you just came from and right next to it. I’d say the only thing that was thought out on this course was how to squeeze every last cent out of the land its on, while diminishing any class and grace that usually is synonymous with the game of golf. There was no cart girl offering drinks or any management throughout the course ensuring the rules regs and pace rule was adhered to. In fact, it took 2.5 hours longer than it should have to play 18 at the average rate due to thoughtless start times on top of one another and lack of a starter. This was during the holiday so you would figure the course management would be at its best. Not the case! I would rate this at 0 stars but I wouldn’t want anyone to think I just messed up and forgot to put a score. I recommend this course to no one.

Very bad golf course. I don’t know why people like it. The conditions were so bad. The grass was awful. The layout and is pretty stupid too. The service was also really slow. Should be way cheaper than it is in my opinion.

This was the third leg of our golf tour. Saw some good reviews on golfnow and decided to give it a go:
·Fairways were in good condition
·Greens — we played course A & C. Course A’s greens were great shape as they just aerated the greens in Mid-​March. Course C’s greens were decent condition but contained lots repaired divots
·Pace of play: Tee’d off at 6:56am and the course wide open. We completed our round by 11:00am
·Great Pro Shop– Great customer service. No beverage cart though
·Complementary Swag:
o Tees, etc…
·Weather Conditions: Play early, as it gets windy/​gusty in the afternoon.
·Layout: Course lay out is resort style, as homes line the fairways but the overall layout is challenging. The course layout has some elevated greens and tee boxes. Lots of uneven lies as the fairways contain lots of rolling hills.
·Experience: A couple of Ocean views, holes 8 & 9, as you can see Waikiki in the backdrop
·Price per round– reasonably priced $ 99 per round.
·Overall: This is a good course, but probably doesn’t get as much love because we played this course after playing Ko Olina and Kapolei, but this a nice course. Will definitely play again when we’re back on the island

PATHETIC. The only reason this place even gets 1 star is for the pretty well kept greens and fairways. The restaurant staff is great too.
The pro shop/​golf course management on the other hand is unbelievably condescending and completely inhospitable. Today, it poured on us and there is a «no rain check policy». The carts at this course have no windshield and no bag cover so how in the h*ll can they not offer a rain check AT ALL?! Completely money hungry and profit driven… policy is get paid and screw the customer.

Great Place to get away from the madness. I’ve been a few times now. The staff is great and the rates are extremely reasonable.

I just played there on Tuesday. Me and a friend went. Showed up at about 1:15pm. Figured it wouldn’t be a problem to walk on which it wasn’t. So the twilight sign up starts at 1:30 and then kicks off at 2:30. However, I noticed a sign that said $ 39 for military on Mondays and Tuesdays, so I tried to just get a tee time before twilight started since it was essentially the same price. However, they wouldn’t have that since people were making the turn, which I completely understand, however, as it is a 27 hole course, the front nine that we would have been playing weren’t even being used or wouldn’t be used until 2:30. but I don’t even mind that as we were hungry anyway and wanted to eat (food was pretty good fyi). So we waited until about 2:20 and hung out in the pro shop. mind you, they could have let us tee off at any time because, as I said, there was nobody on that 9 hole section. but they absolutely made us wait until 2:30. Then, at 2:30, there was one group of two on the list in front of us that still hadn’t made it back with their clubs. So rather than let us just tee off, they made us wait ten minutes. so finally at about 2:45 we were teeing off. We made it through the entire 18 holes by 6pm. well actually at 6pm we were 100 yards from the 18^th pin when the jackwagon from the cart house came out and told us we had to go in because carts were due back in by 6pm. This dude was literally out there on the dot at 6pm telling us this as we were two strokes from being done. so I looked at him and asked him if he was serious and he said absolutely and would not let us finish our last two strokes. So even though the placard on the steering wheel of the cart says «4 ½ hours per round» apparently 3 hours and 15 minutes isn’t quick enough for them. you know, I would totally understand if they wanted the carts back by 6, but then they should start twilight at 1:30 or earlier. Basically, only one group of two made it through 18 holes during twilight. Everybody after them was screwed. Pretty unbelievable really, considering it is probably one of the most expensive courses on the island. do yourself a favor, if you’re playing in Ewa, the Ewa Beach Country Club is comparable and not run by douchebags. If you’re traveling from town and trying to play this course, play the Royal Hawaiian instead. It’s cheaper, more challenging, and the people that work there are way nicer to their customers. Or just play Turtle Bay. Honestly, I’ve heard bad things about this course, but I always try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt. now I know. The only positive I can say is, the course was pretty well taken care of (as it should be with as much as you pay) and the food was decent).

Just played there yesterday and i will be definitely going back there again. The rates aren’t too bad for Kamaaina Its probably one of the cheaper ones on the island. or comparable at least. The great thing is that its fast play. I didn’t see any course marshals giving people stink eye. Due to the sheer size of this course and maybe its out of the way location, there just aren’t that many people there or there doesn’t seem to be a lot of people. Besides the fast golf, the course is very challenging! Make sure that you have a box of cheap balls that you’ll probably lose. Anyways, I love this course and will definitely be back here again!

Customer service here was terrible. My friends and I wanted to play a nice relaxing round somewhere nice so I thought to call around for a course that would allow a six-​some. When I called hawaii prince, the lady on the phone was extremely nice and said that she could accomodate a six-​some on a lazy Friday afternoon and I subsequently booked the time time over the phone.
When we got there, the starter told us that they never allow six people out no matter how empty the course was. He was really condescending and told us we could go out with five and leave someone behind if we like. He went on to say that if we didn’t like his policy, we should go somewhere that allows six-​somes. The guy was a real jerk and told us that he would kick us off the course if we joined our group together.
So we split up 2 – 4 and played the round. It was a nice course, but the staff made me so pissed off I couldn’t fully enjoy it. Also, there was not another soul on the course the entire time so I don’t see how allowing five and not six would make such a big deal.
Will not come back because of this.

Nice course but the staff sure could use a class in friendliness. After paying the twilight rate and our clubs were on the cart, we were informed that all carts have to be back by 6pm… we get back at 6pm and there is no one around. Were considering buying hats and/​or shirts but the door to the pro shop was locked! I spoke to a man through the door and he said we’re closed! Felt like I was imposing on all staff there. What they seem to forget is that we tourists help pay their salaries!!!

The Hi Prince Golf Course is like that little gem amongst gravel. The course is well kept, quiet and serene. The restaurant offers a buffet on Sundays, and, I must say it is a beautiful place to spend Sunday moe if with your family and great food. There is a warm good bar, cold food bar, dessert bar and snow crab legs for any seafood fanatic. I am here on a relaxed Sunday, with a cool breeze – perfect family day. The buffet per table is an hour half reservation so come with a game plan and don’t waste time; nevertheless, take a moment to enough the ambiance. I’m really impressed with the restaurant. Great quiet place for meetings and family gatherings. I would totally recommend this restaurant for your next outing.

aloha all!
The Hawaii Prince Golf Club green fee rates with a minimum of 12 players is $ 57.00 per person, should we be short a player the cost will be $ 67.00 per person.

Finally brushed the cobwebs off of my clubs, had my mom babysit and got to enjoy a Sunday golf day! It rained the whole time from town to Ewa, but the west side did not dissapoint and as usual it was bright and sunny despite the inclimate weather.
We did the A and C courses, and they were up to par, lol. Challenging yet fun, nicely maintained greens and pathways. Lots of water features and hills to keep you on your toes.
Every staff we ran into was very pleasant and helpful. I didn’t get a chance to try out the restaurant, but when we passed by it was full of people enjoying their meals. There were a few tables on the patio which looked very relaxing.
Nice course. I’d play here again :) hopefully it won’t be 3 months till I golf again!

The Hawaii Prince Golf Club is one of my most frequented golf courses not only because I’ve played in a lot of charity golf tournaments here but it’s also one of the best deals you’ll get playing golf in the Islands.
The course has 27 holes and is perfect for accommodating large golf tournaments and giving golfers a choice of what 18 holes to play. Even though the course plays moderately easy the wind and numerous water hazards challenges the golfer in club selection and accuracy. The fairway and greens are above average condition and is consistently well maintained.
The driving range is on natural grass (Which I prefer) with a chipping and sand bunker practice greens right next. On the down side it is located quite a ways from the clubhouse and restrooms and you’d probably need a golf cart to get there and back in time for your tee time.
The restaurant has great tasting dishes and lots of seating inside and outside. The staff here is cheerful and friendly.
So come visit the Prince and feel like Royalty!

Probably one of my top five favorite courses. You can watch the airplanes fly by on their way to land at Honolulu International Airport.
This course is not too hard, not too easy, just right. There are actually three courses and you usually do the back end of one and then the front end of another to mix things up. They also have great snacks and food. Grab a beer and a musubi before you hit the course to get rid of your golfing jitters and you’ll do great!
There is also plenty of parking. Minus one star for this being a resort gold course but not having all the resort amenities (wet towels, etc). I know it’s not close to the Hawaii Prince Hotel, but it could still provide 5 star comforts and conveniences.

Golfed here today buy booking online for $ 172 for a foursome on a Sunday. That comes out to $ 43 per – not bad for a weekend at a non-​muni course.
The greens are well maintained and fast. The course overall looks like its in good shape. Water comes into play and makes some holes challenging, for example, on the 9^th hole on the B course…
The driving range is off the grass. Well, actually more like sand covered with grass. I have no complaints about the driving range.
The staff is here is super helpful especially the folks working the Starter positions. The service from the Pro Shop was OK – not as good as other pro shops.
Overall though, Hawaii Prince is not one of my favorites courses and I seldom recommend playing here. More like a last resort if other courses are booked…

I’ve been to the restaurant here quite a few times. This tends to be a favorite spot for my boss to treat her employees for lunch. Each time I have gotten something a little different. My coworkers rave about the cheeseburgers, which is what I had this last time. It was pretty decent. I like my burgers well-​done but to the other diners, the burgers were over-​cooked that day. Also, the cooks were a little skimpy on the french fries all around. The service that day, however, was pretty darn good. The view is always beautiful, definitely a highlight.
Overall, I probably wouldn’t choose to eat her if it were up to me. But for a free meal (courtesy of my employer), it does alright.

Parking:
I was very happy about the parking here. Not crowded, lots of space, and most of the lot is covered with shade from their trees.

The course was so windy when I went the other day! And I sure hope airplanes constantly flying over your head won’t disrupt your game. And OMG, those sand traps are so tricky! Argh.
So ya… I didn’t do well. But the green is well maintained and rolls fast. The staff are friendly… but isn’t this usually an expensive place to play? (I went on a family and friend’s discount) Why don’t they have coolers with water on the golf cart? Where’s the person that comes along the course to sell you food? Why don’t they wipe down your clubs when you roll back in after you finish? Am I asking for too much? Ha! LoL. Ok, I’ll stop now.
