Nice views. Layout was a little difficult to navigate at first.

Great place for large events. Beautifully surrounded by the Koolau mountains. Spacious. Lots of parking. Clean bathrooms. The food is 10/10.

Most rude parking attendant - you can tell he definitely dispises visitors. We are from the island originally but visiting and he was still rude. He was very rude and must hate his job - seriously find a better job if you hate it that much. Do better

Beautiful place to host a venue.

I recently attended a conference at the Ko’olau Ballroom. The food was delicious and inventive! There was so much of it! The wait staff were very professional, helpful, and pleasant. The bathrooms were impeccably clean. The grounds are beyond breathtaking- the perfect backdrop for magnificent pictures.

The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is due to the outdated interior. There’s old carpeting, stained ceilings/corners (likely from rain or burst pipe), old unused/dusty electrical equipment attached to the ceiling, and we sat on stained and pilling chairs. The ladies room- while incredibly clean- has an old lumpy couch that leans to one side, and old sink fixtures/counter (likely from 80s or 90s).

I want to reiterate that this place is immaculately clean and you can tell the staff who care for it put their hearts into it. The grounds are impeccable, and overall this venue has a warm, inviting atmosphere. I really enjoyed my conference being there- and I’d love to go back.

Great place to do events.

Great venue for the view. Weddings take place on one of the tee boxes so you can see most of the windward side. Parking is typically $15 for the day if you are there for golf, but if you are attending an event, parking is free.
The reception I attended today was on the small glass ballroom side. Still a great view but too small for the audio system that the band/dj brought in. Not the bathrooms fault.
The food left much to be desired. The bread rolls were stale, hard, and dry. None of the cooked vegetables were seasoned and all of the entrees were way overcooked but decently seasoned. The food used to be so much better.
The appetizers were the best. Fresh shoyu poke, decent sushi rolls, fried gyoza dumplings, and spring rolls.

Clean facility nestled in a verdant wooded nook. Located on the grounds of Koolau golf course. Good place to hold a conference.

Absolutely breathtaking venue for weddings or any special event. The food was delish! Could be the same chicken Chans Buffet had by the airport 😋

Beware! You have to park in golf course parking lot to hike to waterfall and they charge $15!!! What a ripoff!! Also, the parking attendant was extremely rude and insulted me because I was confused that I had to park here in order to hike to waterfall, he asked for my driver license to park!!! I was surprised that he asked me about DL, so then he just started insulting me more and told me he isn’t going to let me park there!
