Have you ever experienced that “bang for the buck” feels?
If you are in Kauai and seek for a genuine experience in the land of Aloha, Kiahuna Golf Club deserves to be on your bucket list.
One of the many masterpieces of the world-renowned golf architect Robert Trent Jones II, this 18 hole, par 70 course at the Kiahuna Golf Club is surrounded by Kauai’s natural and rich beauty. Located in spectacular, sunny Poipu Beach, its design reminds you of many ancient remains of an authentic Hawaiian village. It is also where you get closer and understand the enduring history of Kauai and its neighboring islands.
With awe-inspiring views and a well-maintained layout, you will have fun and challenging golf play at an affordable price. Whether you are a beginner, average, or pro, they have multiple tee settings so you can adjust to your level.
You will also find out that the holes are interesting, which require planning on your shots, with fair risk-reward ratios. Some find the greens to be slow, but many say it is where you find this course’s challenges.
If you haven’t been playing for a long time or simply want to get a feel of the course, head over to their practice green, and their friendly and helpful staff ensure you get everything you need.
Not only the golf itself but also foods are less expensive compared to other golf courses. Paco’s Tacos Cantina is a Mexian restaurant that serves authentic Mexican cuisine for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. You can choose from a wide variety of burrito menu, including Carne Asada, Carnitas, Chicken, Shrimp, Chile Relleno, Bean and Cheese, and many more. If you want your burrito wet, smother it with Chili Verde or make it into Enchilada Style for only $3. Other options are Taco Salad, Seafood Platters, Pancakes, Omelette, Steak and Eggs, Torta Sandwich and a lot more!
What could be better than having a meal with your favorite beverages such as wines, beers, and cocktails? We are sure that you will be surprised with many options of alcoholic drinks that they offer. You can also choose to watch sports or listen to live music if you prefer lively entertainment.
