Est. 1996
Where2Golf says:
Hualalai Resort (Hualalai course): Two 18-hole championship layouts grace the Hualalai Resort. The highly-rated Hualalai course is open to resort guests, while its companion, the Ke'olu course is private and generally only playable by its members and their invited guests.
No stranger to top-level tournament play, the Hualalai layout is the first Jack Nicklaus Signature design on Hawaii Island. The par-72 layout weaves through the Big Island’s challenging lavascape, taking full advantage of spectacular ocean views and dramatic shoreline vistas. The fabulous par-3 17th and par-4 18th are played directly alongside the ocean, with ancient lava flows dramatically framing the holes ( ... as they do on most holes).
Stay & Play at Hualalai: luxury onsite accommodation available, see Where2Stay section below.

Koksijde Golf ter Hille Golf Club: on what was previously open farmland, an enjoyable and challenging links-style layout has been crafted. Perhaps the inspiration for Koksijde's new course came from a renowned Harry Colt layout that existed in the 1920s just a couple of kilometres to the west. Read more... |
The Duke Golf Club: represents the latest in a trio of private courses to arrive on the Dutch golfing scene. All prefixed by the definite article, The Dutch (2010, designer Colin Montgomerie) and The International (2012, Ian Woosnam) have now been joined by The Duke, which firmly targets a business clientele and the corporate golf market. Read more... |
Drentse Golfclub De Gelpenberg: as the oldest golf course in the Dutch province of Drenthe, De Gelpenberg offers a partly-wooded and partly-open heathland layout, guaranteed to test all facets of your game. It is arguably the best of the country's more northerly layouts, together with Lauswolt (50 km away to the north-west). Read more... |
Golfbaan Stippelberg: located 25 kilometres north-east of Eindhoven, this relatively new addition to championship golf in the Netherlands has fast become one of the country's "must play" courses. |
