Solid upgrade.

Amazing experience at Pearl! The renovated course is fun to play, generous fairways with challenging greens. Everything is in great shape, greens roll true, fairways are manicured. The views of Pearl Harbor on the back are stunning. The staff is very friendly and eager to help make the experience memorable. I had to come back a second time during my stay. I can’t wait to return soon.

This is a review for its restaurant, which it interestingly doesn’t have its own name. First of all, the outside sitting area was so relaxing and comfortable with a view of Pearl Harbor and Pearl city. The menu consisted of burgers, Hawaiian, Filipino, Korean, Chinese and assorted other dishes. The food tasted fine, though nothing great. The service was decent and friendly. All in all, it was a wonderful experience having lunch here even we didn’t golf that day.

Had a wonderful round here. The course is challenging and super fun. You have to play is twice to understand some of the shots you need to make. Several blind shots and lots of elevation change. Really convenient QR code ordering system from your cart - used it 3x during the round. Can't beat the 6 beers for 30 bucks deal at a golf course in Hawaii unless you smuggle in your own. Some of the tee boxes are in really bad shape along with some parts of the course. That last picture of the grass driving range is a fluke - we got kicked out of the area because it's reserved only for lessons. We almost hit a full bucket of balls before the coach came around so we were happy lol!

Considering the reasonable green fees, great course to play. Fabulous views to see Pearl Harbor. Some holes needs some TLC but otherwise, great to play.
