Umm, yeah.. it's in Hawaii.
They said in the video, when it was finished it was rated the most difficult course in the country.
Came across this golf vlogs from Zac Radford's youtube channel. Still on video 1.
Place looks amazing and scary as hell. Thought you guys might enjoy it. The scenery is jaw dropping.

Some google images of the course.

That looks dope.
I'd have to bring a dozen golf balls to finish it though.

Looks awesome. But IIRC Kiawah Ocean Course has the highest rating in the US.

Yeah, this course is no longer the most difficult. It was at the time of completion.

Played there, in the rain, amazing fun course. The grass is just super short St. Augustine, kinda weird but cool. Too hot and rainy to grow anything else I guess.

Going to Hawaii in July and playing Kapalua plantation. Is this on the same island? We are trying to find a second course to play.
Also playing Torrey pines on the layover in San Diego
Nvm. Different island

I played it in August 2019. Everything you said here is true. Some amazing views and plenty of shots that are scary as hell. Bring plenty of balls.
Staff was very friendly and super laid back. It's Hawaii. There was a wedding going on at the clubhouse that I witnessed from the 9th hole lol. Definitely recommend it. It was a great experience.
A couple of pics from when I was there:

From golf digest about Ko’olau
“The course record is 63...lost golf balls”

I played several years ago and it was the most beautiful course I've played on.
It was challenging, but I actually played very well. There are plenty of shots that require very precise distances to have a look on the next, so if you know your distances and they are on, it's not maddeningly hard. Except #18. That shite was wild.

Plantation is the best. Play Wailea golf club courses as well. Emerald is a bit easier and may have better views than Gold. But the gold is also awesome. If there’s any chance you can play the Nicklaus course on Lanai right off Maui you should play that.
The Prince course in Kuiai was phenomenal but I think it’s closed right now.
