The Waikoloa Beach Resort Beach Course, designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. and opened in 1981, is a resort-style course that beautifully integrates the dramatic lava flows of the Kohala Coast with lush fairways and stunning ocean vistas. Jones Jr.'s design philosophy for his Hawaiian courses often involved working with the natural lava formations, creating a unique and memorable playing experience. The course is a par-70 layout measuring 6,566 yards, offering a scenic and enjoyable round for all players. While the resort now features a 27-hole configuration with three nine-hole loops, the Beach Course's original design is celebrated for its picturesque setting. The 7th hole, a par-5 named Hemolele (Perfection), is considered the signature hole of the resort, showcasing the quintessential beauty of the Hawaiian landscape. The course's finishing holes, particularly the 17th and 18th, provide a challenging and scenic conclusion to the round. Its blend of natural beauty, strategic design, and resort amenities makes it a popular choice for golfers visiting the Big Island.
