Turtle Bay Resort (George Fazio course): COURSE CLOSED IN 2020 during the Covid pandemic, without a set time to reopen. Check status before planning a visit. The resort's Palmer course remains open for play.

[Original Where2Golf description]: The Turtle Bay Resort is home to two 18-hole championship golf courses, the highly-ranked Palmer course and the also well-rated and popular George Fazio course.

The Fazio layout, generally considered the more forgiving of the two courses, is a tree-lined and open parkland course that should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy.

The Fazio course meanders among traditional Hawaiian palms, skirting Oahu's fabled North Shore, with one or two oceanside holes. Plenty of golfing challenge, a well-crafted design and usually good upkeep all contribute to the appeal of this course. One to include on your play list if you are in Ohua.

Stay&Play at Turtle Bay: luxury onsite accommodation available, see Where2Stay section below.
