In summary

Makaha Resort & Golf Club is praised for its breathtaking mountain and ocean views, friendly and welcoming staff, and affordable pricing, making it a hidden gem for those seeking a local golfing experience away from tourist-heavy courses.

Fantastic Local Experience. GET AWAY FROM THE OVERPRICED TOURIST COURSES and golf at Makaha Valley. Absolutely breathtaking views. The greens do reflect the prices but the staff is great and local. A breath of fresh air from the tourists traps. Thank you Makaha Valley

If you hand ever played a links style course, with coarser grasses and paths that are only near the tee and green, you’ll understand this course better. It’s in pretty good shape, with the occasional unwatered area that you are hopefully hitting over anyway. Greens are slow because of the type of grass but they’re green and cared for and a challenge for any casual golfer! The bunkers are grown over, but who likes hitting out of sand anyway?! The carts are really nice, with great electronic yardage screens. Club up, be aware everything slopes towards the ocean, and enjoy your day! Worth every p…

Cool little course. Greens and fairways well maintained. Rough is a challenge and tee boxes may not be what you are used to but the staff are great and the course was fun to play.

This course is well maintained but struggling to stay afloat. Waiemai is a bit off the beaten path so this course is a bit of a hike from Honolulu. That said, we really enjoyed it. Some greens have been allowed to be taken over by a native, this place grass but, they are mown low and just a touch slower than a bent grass green. T boxes and fairways are perfect. This course sits in and absolutely gorgeous valley. Worth a look for sure....did I mention it is only $70.

My brother and I played here twice in three days in early February of 2025. Absolutely one of THE most scenic golf courses I've ever played!! The mountains, the ocean views, and the weather were perfection! The course was not in the best shape though, (bunkers are overgrown, and most of the greens have a native vegetation that is pretty much impossible to putt on), but the closing greens are pretty good. The place is BEAUTIFUL!! The layout of the course, designed by William Bell who designed Torrey Pines South, is fun and challenging. The staff were very friendly, and the service is great! Ver…

What a great spot to stop!!! Our server, Summer, was fabulous!!! Our shrimp burger, coconut shrimp, and garlic fries were delicious! And we were instantly welcomed by the bar/restaurant employee immediately when we walked in! Loved this place!!!

A Hole-in-One Experience! Started my day with a mouthwatering breakfast that hit the spot before tee time. After tackling half the course, I couldn’t resist stopping in for lunch—and wow, the food was just as incredible the second time around! The staff were all warm, welcoming, and made me feel right at home. And let’s talk about those views—absolutely breathtaking from the green. Between the scenery, the service, and the bites, this country club delivers the full package. Can’t wait to come back!

Excellent pro shop and restaurant service. Golf course was amazing. Nice buggies. Enjoyed playing with helpful locals that shared tips and helped me get two birdies.

While the greens can be a bit rough in places, this course offers some great views. The staff is extremely helpful and customer oriented. I'd say the most local friendly of all the Oahu courses I play. Highly recommend.

I really wanted to like this course due to the proximity to my house but at the end of 18 I can confidently say, I'll never be back. Pros: BEAUTIFUL VIEWS from almost every hole, open tee times, cheap fees ($123 for two residents on the weekend) and friendly staff. Cons: just about the hole course is in desperate need of attention. The tee boxes were incredibly overgrown, the 1st cut off of the fairway was so overgrown you'd immediately lose your ball. Every sand trap was actually a trap that contained the grass clippings from the last mow that must have happened a month ago. I understand th…

What are the rates to golf? Weekend vs Weekdays? 9 holes vs 18? Local vs visiting? And why is the last tee time available at 11:30 am? Please add this to the first page of your website so everyone is not confused of what is cost to golf a Makaha County Club.🙏 😊 Great place!
