Royal Hawaiian Golf Club

Dec 2025

Royal Hawaiian Golf Club is one of the most beautiful — and toughest — courses I’ve ever played. The layout is insanely challenging, but the scenery more than makes up for it. Every hole feels like you’re golfing in the middle of a rainforest, with stunning mountain views all around.

They only had limited tee times available when we went, but honestly, that worked in our favor because the course wasn’t busy at all. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the course conditions were great from tee to green. We even spotted some wild pigs roaming around, which was a pretty unique sight!

Played here frequently when I lived in Hawaii. It was Luana Hills back then. Enjoyed the kama'aina rates vs. the very expensive non-resident rate we paid last week. No regrets. Bring two boxes of balls, not sleeves. Prepare to enjoy the incredible scenery, etc. If you make a few pars, consider yourself very lucky. Gracious staff. Hope the facilities are open next time like the restaurant, bar and amazing hot and cold plunge pools in the locker room. There was a fire and all the carts were destroyed so they're limited with very old carts. State of the art ones are on the way. Go play!

Unbelievable golf, the views were absolutely stunning and the staff were super friendly. Would only wish for more services and amenities at this course. It used to have a sauna and restaurant which were not open when we visited. My friend and myself could easily forget that though for the stunning scenery and amazing, challenging golf. An absolute must-visit for golfers and even beginners like ourselves.
