Golf trips off Hawaiian cruise

[TheRabbit]

Does Princess still have a golf lead on board that helps set up golf tee times in port for the LA round trip cruises to Hawaii?

No. They eliminated golf years ago.

Thanks,

That's what I was seeing,  but hoped thing had changed.

Are you military?  There are a coupe of good military courses on Oahu.  There are a few public courses and expensive private ones.  

 

Hilo:  Most of the courses are on the Kona side (too far for a day trip).

Maui:  Depending if you are ported in Kahului (not much) or Lahaina (a few near the hotels on the West end).

Kauai:  The better golf courses are on the North (Princeville) side of the island.  Again, pretty far to go for golf.  .

I am only playing in Hilo and Kauai.  Hilo looks basic. But price is right. Only problem is you can't reserve a cart. There are a few higher end courses in the area of the port on Kauai,  but can't make a tee time for 1. I have used Uber and left in Hawaii, so getting there should be easy.

We did a Hawaii cruise a few years ago and had an overnight in Maui so had no problem in getting a round in but I always regretted not playing The Plantation course at Kapalua, Im sure it was around $285 and we just thought that was topo much so we ended up playing the Blue Course at Wailie, it was a lovely course with fantastic views over the Pacific but not the same as playing a PGA tour course.

Plantation is $395 now, not a problem, but we already have other plans in Maui unfortunately.
