Hoakalei, Hawaii, United States

This Ernie Els signature design forms part of the prestigious new world-class Hoakalei Country Club that is being built next to beautiful Ocean Pointe, Ewa Beach, about 20 minutes from Honolulu. It is O‘ahu’s only resort-based country club.

Hoakalei was officially opened for play by Ernie Els on 12 January and this spectacular golf course reflects the scenic splendour of O’ahu, featuring beautifully landscaped and manicured conditions with hundreds of Palm, Kiawe and Hala trees, all framed with native grasslands.

The course blends in beautifully with a 248-acre plot which follows the natural landscape to the Ewa coastline, offering expansive vistas of the cherished Ewa plains and the legendary surf bathed in sunshine.

Status: Opened for play in January 2009
