Waikele Country Club

Overview: Waikele Country Club is a public Oahu course on the former sugar-country plain, with broad fairways, ponds, waterfalls and a measured parkland rhythm. Ted Robinson’s design uses water and bunker placement to separate the holes without relying on large elevation changes. The current course information lists 6,663 yards from the championship tees.

History: The club opened for business in 1993 and credits Ted Robinson with the design. The course operator publishes a hole-by-hole tour, including the water features and signature holes, which gives the layout a more specific identity than a generic resort description.

Did You Know? Waikele’s water features are integrated into the course’s former agricultural setting. Ponds and waterfalls serve as visual landmarks, but the important playing detail is how they narrow landing areas and influence the approach angles into several greens.
