Ken is an exceptional golf instructor. My dad and I have been wanting to play golf together and the…read morestars finally aligned for us to be able to play on Saturdays. The only issue is that my golf game was greatly lacking. I had been given one off lessons over the years, but they only made my game worse. My dad then surprised me with some lessons with Ken and over four lessons he changed my game substantially. Starting off with my first lesson he asked why I was playing golf, and I explained that is was to have fun with my dad on Saturdays. He then said, so our goal is to make golf more fun and less aggravating. We worked on some fundamentals such as posture and grip. In fact fixing my grip that I had been told by so many other instructors was the best for me, but actually it hampered with my ability to hit the ball correctly. That little bit of change allowed me to actually hit the ball correctly instead of it just dribbling in front of me because my club didn't hit the ball in the middle of the face. The other important change he made is that he allowed me to make my own stance that fit my swing. Other people that had helped me had always commented on my foot placement after swinging, but Ken helped make it work and actually my game improved for it. I was amazed and instantly hooked on his teaching style! The next three lessons we worked chipping, driving, different flights (slice and hook), and improving the way I would be playing golf. The part that really amazed my father is that before I even started lessons, I could not hit my driver. Now I was hitting it consistently over 260 yards! Again a huge thanks to Ken and his coaching. Finally one of the best parts about Ken. He is humble, not pushy, and has real knowledge from golf pros. Everything that he taught me he backed up with facts to explain why it was needed or who had championed the technique. This really makes it easy to understand the teachings he is giving me and even sometimes a few jokes here an there! Now that I am playing to well my dad is now taking lessons with Ken to hopefully up his game and not let me get to far ahead and he has also seen major improvement! I also convinced my wife to take up golf, because of the great experience I was having with Ken and she is already seeing major improvement after only a few lessons. I can't wait to take another lesson and improve my golf game with Ken. He has really made the game less frustrating for me and more fun. Highly recommended!!!

Pali Golf Course has become my home course for a few reasons--it's close to home, affordable, and…read moremost of the time you can walk on without much trouble. Those three things alone keep me coming back. Don't let the price fool you though. This course can be a real challenge. There are hazards everywhere, and it definitely rewards accuracy over power. If you can consistently play well here, you'll probably find a lot of other courses feel much easier by comparison. The course isn't perfect, but it's a fantastic place to sharpen your game without spending a fortune. Whether you're practicing or just looking to get a round in after work, Pali is a solid choice and one I'll keep coming back to.

I'm not a golfer but my kid recently caught the golf bug. Last year he got himself a golfer ID,…read morewhich allows minors to play for free at municipal courses. Somehow Pali Golf Course is the one he wants to go to the most. I came along as a rider (no charge; cart fee $26) yesterday and I could see why. 90% of the course's aesthetics has nothing to do with design and all credit to Mother Nature. It's always so lush and green. I'd imagine it's constantly cool and breezy coz of its strategic valley-ish location. The "amenities" definitely look their age (50+ years old). There is no snack bar, just one vending machine. There is a pro shop but limited hours; it was closed when we were there. Bathrooms are clean, with soap and paper towels, even the one by the 3rd and 15th tee boxes. The road though... so many potholes. It was just us two for our 9:18 tee time. The very friendly lady behind the check-in window was super kind and helpful and encouraging to the kid. She warned us it was a busy day, which we found out later probably meant the pace of play would be slow. Took approx 5 hours for all 18 holes, and only coz the trio in front of us very kindly and warmly invited the kid to play with them ("we have to wait anyway might as well wait together!") It's a very no-frills course. Minimally staffed as well, and most that I've seen are middle-aged or older. Most groups use the cart but I have seen a few use pushcarts. Seems like a rather hardcore course! Also kinda scary when errant balls can come from any direction because the holes snake from 1st to 18th. (I heard someone tell "Fore!" coz their ball curved so much to the right.) It was windy yesterday. I packed a jacket and blanket for my legs and for sun protection. I also packed snacks. Fortunately there are trash cans throughout the course, so there wasn't too much litter, most of which were smashed tees.

They should put in tees at around 5800 yds. It's either super short at 5300 or really long at 6470. Nothing in between. That's the reason for only 3 stars not 4. Otherwise, sand traps are fabulous and course is set up really well. Having a par 3 on the second hole is a bad design, but nothing they can do about it now. Will def play again if i return to Oahu.

We were told to join some other players (a pair and a solo; I was riding along with the kid). It's interesting that players are allowed to walk/push their carts but I'm told to stay in the cart for my safety. (But if I wanted to get my steps in I can pay the green fee and buy cheap/pretend set and pretend to play.) Friendly staff, minimally staffed. Very fuss-free. Cart fee is $26 as of June 2026. There are stray dogs and cats living on the course but they're very chill.

There is new management (Gerry) in the pro shop at Ke'alohi, whom worked between 7pm-10pm 2/14 and is absolutely horrendous. He has some sort of superior mentality on him and was so rude. We started the 9 holes around 8 Pm with a group of 6. At 8:40 pm while we were finishing up hole 4 all of the lights on the course turned off. We had to call multiple times to let him know we were still out on the course and finishing hole 4, he instantly acted annoyed that he had to turn the lights back on an hour before they closed. When we were in the middle of hole 6 at approximately 9:05pm, Gerry walked out to us and told us that our group of 6 with need to split into two groups because of "pace of play" . I would normally understand however there was absolutely no one else on the course and it would have taken us longer to finish waiting for half our group to finish each hole before the next half started because we had been hitting a few people at a time when we could. After he told us we needed to split up, he proceeded to say "you guys need to hurry the lights turn off in less than 20 minutes" which would be approx 9:20 pm. I proceeded to let him know online says 9:45pm and that never in the many times we have played have they turned off prior to that. His response was "okay 40 minutes then". While walking off he actively signed and let out a "whatever". We decided to skip a hole so we could have extra time to speak with him about the issues. We took our bags out to our vehicle at approx 9:35 pm after finishing hole 9. When we were getting ready to walk back in he already had the course and shop closed completely and was walking to his vehicle with his wife whom had been waiting on him. He was leaving before the course was supposed to even close. This was the absolutely worst visit, and we'd love the much older gentleman who use to run the pro shop back!
