Once I got there though, wow this place is impressive. Practice areas are really nice. The chipping/pitching green is huge allowing you to take some longer half wedge shots. Range balls being part of my fees was nice. I got to play by myself which was good and bad. On the good side, I played my butt off. I think I hit 12 fairways and had a chance to shoot 80. On 18, I picked a club for a 2 club wind. It ended up being a 3 club wind! Elevation changes and water are nice touches. Had one of the best rounds of the year with no witnesses. Course was in fabulous condition. Greens were just right on the speed. The views are why you come here though. Breathtaking. I played this same course on my honeymoon 25 years ago. Still wonderful to this day.

I…read moredidn't bring clubs and rented a set for $37, the clubs were really good quality and were perfect. The course is well maintained and in great shape. Most of the holes have pretty open fairways. The par threes are fun to play. The course has a few challenging holes and you just have to play smart. The greens are nice and in great shape. The entire course is surrounded by beauty, some of the most breathtaking views on any course in Hawaii. You can book the tee time online, easy and no problem. The club house is nice and the staff from the starter to the guys that take care of the clubs and carts were friendly and professional. They were very helpful in providing the layout of the course. Great experience at Puakea Golf Course and I will definitely be back to play again. Thank you for the great experience.

This isn't a high-end resort club, however I saw the local resort club when went went over for lunch, and they looked very similar in upkeep. Greens are unpredictable.. couldn't get a measure if they were fast or slow. Skill issue 100%, but just giving way to how I faired on the course. Some challenging scenery, with roughs that beg to swallow your golf ball into the abyss. I luckily only lost a sleeve...which is great considering the rentals came with a sleeve. Rentals were PXG lightnings. 14 clubs with 3 woods and a putter. Great set in good condition, being rentals. Pro shop Auntie was great. All the workers were super nice and helpful. Auntie spaced me out, golfing solo, where I had no issues with anyone behind me, and barely saw the twosome in front of me. I can see how this is a favorite amongst a lot of locals and traveling golfers. If I lived on the island, this could very well be a home course. If you believe that the other courses around are a little bit high in price, Puakea will not disappoint you for a more affordable island golfing experience!

Katie and Matt were phenomenal guides and really created a safe space in what can be deemed as being scary to many. They furthermore create opportunities to bond and celebrate each other through the process of repelling and learning to repel, while knowing their audience and really bringing the perfect hospitality feel. This was well worth the money and the time that they give you out there - they also provide equipment and gear for you at no added cost, which has not been the case at many of the other things that we have done. They also will provide you with choices of how or where you can propel within your comfort and based on skills and teach you how to dry repel prior to actually doing it which really helps with boosting confidence - I was very fortunate and comfortable with being vulnerable and ventured through the waterfall! Cannot guarantee this to anyone, yet it made my experience very memorable and put me into a huge state of humility and peace. We will be back again and I hope it is sooner over later! I hope that people find this review invaluable as well. Cheers, Stephen

Naan & Shiz were the best. We felt safe and comfortable throughout the tour. First, was a practice run on dry land. Next, we hiked down to the 30 foot waterfall in 2 separate groups of 4. Last, we hiked through a muddy trail and crossed a stream to the 60 foot waterfall!!! This is a once in a lifetime experience and a must try. We plan to make this a regular activity when in Kauai when we can do it with our eyes closed (just kidding about "eyes closed").

Additionally, I learned that the creator is someone who is born and raised on Kauai who creates the designs. From talking to the person manning the shop, they also shared that this company readily gives back to the athletes in their community with a focus on MMA - so it felt good to be a patron of a true local business.

Since we planned this trip last minute, finding campsites in the more remote areas was tough. Thankfully, KRC provides an excellent travel guide that not only lists camping spots but also gives insider tips on how to make the most of your trip. That guide was a lifesaver. It led us to Kumu Camp, which was perfect for our group of six, and even pointed us toward hidden gems like Anini Beach. Without it, we probably would have been stuck scrambling. The camper itself was fantastic. It was comfortable, well-equipped, and thoughtfully stocked with everything you need. What stood out most, though, was the team. Jonathan and his crew were communicative, flexible, and genuinely cared about making our experience unforgettable. When I wanted to extend my stay, they made it seamless. When I accidentally left a few belongings behind, they went out of their way to return them. That kind of service is rare. If you are considering car camping in Kauai, here are a couple of takeaways for success. Book early if you can because campsites do fill up, especially near the busier beaches. Make sure to use KRC's travel guide because it is full of reliable, local recommendations you will not find on Google. And most importantly, embrace flexibility because the best part of car camping here is the freedom to pivot plans and discover new places. Kauai Rooftop Campers does not just rent vehicles. They give you the keys to experience the island in a way that feels adventurous, authentic, and stress free. Highly recommend them for anyone wanting to see Kauai beyond the resorts.
