Hualalai Golf Club Keolu Course

Ke'olu Golf Course is a private members-only 18-hole course designed by Tom Weiskopf, located at Hualālai Resort on Hawaii's Big Island. The course features a dramatic volcanic landscape with lava formations, collapsed lava tubes, caves, and natural arches that define its character across undulating terrain with elevation changes exceeding 220 feet.

The front nine plays as a par-36 layout, measuring over 3,500 yards from the back tees and 3,300 yards from the championship tee, with a minimum of four tees per hole and six tees on hole 8. The back nine extends 3,600 yards from the farthest tees and 3,400 from the championship tee, offering gentle slopes and panoramic ocean views.

The course employs Tifway 2 grass on fairways, tees, and roughs, with TifEagle greens designed for a truer putting surface. Bunkers feature custom-blend sand imported from China for consistency and playability. Despite its visually intimidating appearance, the course is designed to reward regular play and provide an engaging challenge.
