THE COURSE
The Kapolei Golf Course was recognized as 4.5 out of 5-star courses by Golf Digest’s Places to Play. This 6,076-yard, par-70 course has elevated greens, 80 bunkers and five lakes that provide delightful tactical challenges. All of the greens are visible from the tee ground, and Kapolei’s wide fairways and generous greenside chipping areas deliver a high level of overall playability for golfers of all levels. The course was the proud host of LPGA and PGA Championship tournaments and a round for former President Barack Obama.
