There may be no easier way for a golfer to experience several Hawaiian islands in one vacation.

The 9-Day Hawaii Islands Golf Cruise from Golf Ahoy Golf Cruises begins with two nights in Waikiki before you board Norwegian Cruise Line’s Pride of America for a seven-night journey through the islands.

Along the way, play five carefully selected Hawaii golf courses on Maui, Hawaii ‘Big’ Island and Kauai—with reserved tee times, green fees, golf carts and private golf transportation coordinated in advance.

Your Balcony Stateroom provides something especially valuable in Hawaii: your own outdoor space for watching the islands, coastline and Pacific Ocean pass by.

Instead of packing and unpacking as you travel from island to island, settle aboard your floating clubhouse and let the ship do the traveling.

9 Days | 2 Waikiki Nights | 7-Night Cruise | 4 Hawaiian Islands | 5 Rounds of Golf

Begin With Two Nights in Waikiki

Your Hawaii vacation starts on Thursday with arrival in Honolulu and a two-night stay in Waikiki.

Depending upon availability when you reserve, accommodations may be arranged at:

Waikiki Beach Marriott Resort & Spa

or

Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort

or a comparable Waikiki resort confirmed with your reservation.

These two pre-cruise nights provide something we think is important: time.

Instead of flying to Honolulu and immediately boarding a ship, you can settle into Hawaii, adjust to island time, walk Waikiki Beach, enjoy dinner overlooking the Pacific or simply relax before the golf cruise begins.

Airport-to-hotel transportation is not included, allowing you to select the transfer arrangement that best suits your flight schedule.

Your transfer from the Waikiki resort to Pride of America on embarkation day is included in the package.

Five Golf Days Across Three Hawaiian Islands

Golf Ahoy Golf Cruises builds the golf program around Pride of America’s Hawaiian itinerary.

The result is a remarkably efficient golf vacation.

Your ship transports you between islands while your golf arrangements are coordinated ashore.

Wailea Gold Course | Maui

Your first cruise golf experience introduces you to Wailea.

Designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr., the Gold Course incorporates Maui’s natural terrain and volcanic landscape into a distinctive resort-golf experience.

It is an impressive way to begin the week.

Wailea Emerald Course | Maui

With Pride of America remaining overnight in Maui, your second day provides another opportunity to experience Wailea.

The Emerald Course offers a different personality from the Gold and gives golfers two contrasting rounds without changing hotels or flying between destinations.

Mauna Lani or Mauna Kea | Hawaii Island

Golf on Hawaii Island introduces an entirely different landscape.

Here, intensely green fairways can meet dark volcanic terrain and brilliant Pacific water.

Your confirmed itinerary will identify the Hawaii Island course selected for your departure, with Mauna Lani Golf or Mauna Kea Golf Course among the courses used in Golf Ahoy Golf Cruises programs.

Poipu Bay Golf Course | Kauai

Arriving on Kauai changes the scenery once again.

Poipu Bay combines championship golf with the tropical beauty of the Garden Isle and has a history of hosting elite professional competition.

The Ocean Course at Hōkūala | Kauai

Your final scheduled round provides an appropriately scenic conclusion.

The Jack Nicklaus-designed Ocean Course at Hōkūala travels through tropical vegetation before reaching its memorable Pacific shoreline.

Finish your round, return to Pride of America and enjoy the final portion of your Hawaiian voyage.

Your 9-Day Journey

Thursday | Welcome to Oahu

Arrive in Honolulu and make your way to your Waikiki resort.

Check in for the first of your two pre-cruise nights and enjoy the remainder of the day at leisure.

Friday | Waikiki

Enjoy a full day in Oahu.

Explore Waikiki, visit the beach, sightsee or simply relax before the cruise.

Golfers wanting an additional round can ask Golf Ahoy Golf Cruises about an optional pre-cruise round at Ko Olina Golf Club, subject to availability.

Saturday | Honolulu

Transfer from your Waikiki resort to Honolulu Harbor and embark aboard Pride of America.

Settle into your Balcony Stateroom and begin your seven-night Hawaiian Islands voyage.

Sunday | Maui

Golf — Wailea Gold Course

Arrive in Kahului and head to Wailea for your first scheduled round.

Pride of America remains overnight in Maui.

Monday | Maui

Golf — Wailea Emerald Course

Return to Wailea for your second Maui golf experience before the ship sails for Hawaii Island.

Tuesday | Hilo, Hawaii Island

Day at Leisure

Take a break from golf and discover another side of Hawaii.

Explore independently, choose an available shore experience or enjoy a relaxing day.

Wednesday | Kona, Hawaii Island

Golf — Mauna Lani or Mauna Kea

Play amid the dramatic volcanic landscapes of Hawaii Island before returning to your ship.

Thursday | Kauai

Golf — Poipu Bay Golf Course

Arrive in Nāwiliwili and experience your first Kauai round.

The ship remains overnight, providing additional time on the Garden Isle.

Friday | Kauai

Golf — The Ocean Course at Hōkūala

Play your final scheduled round before returning to Pride of America.

When operating conditions and itinerary permit, the voyage also provides an opportunity to experience the spectacular scenery of Kauai’s Nā Pali Coast from the sea.

Saturday | Honolulu

Return to Honolulu and disembark after breakfast.

Extend your stay in Oahu or begin your journey home.

The Golf Is Already Organized

Playing five courses on three Hawaiian islands independently would require considerable planning.

Tee times need to coordinate with port schedules. Transportation must accommodate golfers and their clubs. Courses can be considerable distances from the cruise terminal.

That is where Golf Ahoy Golf Cruises comes in.

Your confirmed Hawaii golf program can include:

Pre-arranged priority tee times • Prepaid green fees • Golf carts • Private golf transportation • Applicable Hawaii taxes and fees • Driver gratuities

Practice-range arrangements and non-golfer ride-along requests may also be available when requested in advance.

Instead of spending your vacation arranging logistics, you can concentrate on playing golf.

Your Private Balcony at Sea

The featured accommodation for this package is a Balcony Stateroom aboard Pride of America.

For Hawaii, we believe the balcony matters.

Open your doors in the morning as the ship approaches another island. Step outside after returning from golf. Watch the coastline from your own private outdoor space.

Norwegian Cruise Line offers several Balcony categories aboard Pride of America, with accommodations varying by location and size. Large Balcony categories, for example, currently provide approximately 217–233 square feet of total space, including balconies of approximately 79–95 square feet.

Your Golf Ahoy Golf Cruises advisor can compare available categories for your sailing and help select a location that fits your preferences.

Want More Space?

Ask about upgrading to a Large Balcony, Club Balcony or Suite, subject to availability.

Travelers celebrating a special birthday, anniversary, retirement or other milestone may also want to compare available Penthouse and Owner’s Suite accommodations.

Pride of America: Your Floating Hawaii Base

Pride of America is particularly well suited to this style of golf vacation because the ship is dedicated to Hawaii.

The voyage connects Oahu, Maui, Hawaii Island and Kauai, allowing you to experience dramatically different landscapes without arranging inter-island flights.

Your stateroom travels with you.

Your luggage travels with you.

Your golf clubs travel with you.

Return from the course, shower, have dinner and relax.

The following morning, Hawaii presents another destination.

That simplicity is one of the greatest luxuries of the entire vacation.

Dining & Evenings Aboard

After golf, the evening belongs to you.

Pride of America provides complimentary and specialty dining choices, bars, lounges and entertainment throughout the voyage.

Rather than planning every evening before you leave home, choose what appeals to you that day.

Perhaps it is a steak after 18 holes.

Maybe a relaxed dinner and early night before tomorrow’s tee time.

Or cocktails while watching Hawaii disappear beyond the horizon.

The golf itinerary may be carefully organized.

Your evenings don’t have to be.

Bringing Your Golf Clubs

Most golfers prefer playing Hawaii with their own equipment.

Bring your clubs with you to Honolulu or ask Golf Ahoy Golf Cruises about available golf-club shipping alternatives.

Travelers who would rather not transport clubs can also request advance rental-club arrangements through participating golf course Pro Shops, subject to availability.

Whatever you choose, make the decision before departure so your equipment arrangements are confirmed well before your first tee time.

Traveling With Someone Who Doesn’t Golf?

They may enjoy this vacation just as much as you do.

While you head to Wailea, Poipu Bay or Hōkūala, your spouse, partner, friend or family member can create an entirely different Hawaii experience.

That might include waterfalls, beaches, sightseeing, shopping, cultural attractions, spas or cruise-line shore excursions.

Or they can remain aboard and enjoy a quieter ship while many passengers are ashore.

Then you meet again in the evening.

You talk about the birdie putt.

They talk about the waterfall.

Everybody wins.

Add a Sixth Round on Oahu

Want to start golfing before the ship leaves Honolulu?

Ask about adding Ko Olina Golf Club during your pre-cruise stay.

The Ted Robinson-designed course on Oahu’s western coast is known for water features, broad landing areas and multi-tiered greens.

Because you already have two nights in Oahu, an optional pre-cruise round can turn the five-round package into a six-round Hawaii golf vacation without extending the trip.

Advance reservations are recommended.

Current Cruise Offers

Norwegian Cruise Line promotions change frequently and can vary by sailing date, stateroom category and booking window.

Qualifying promotions may include cruise-fare discounts, beverage benefits, specialty dining, airfare incentives or other amenities.

Instead of permanently building temporary offers into this page, Golf Ahoy Golf Cruises will identify the qualifying Norwegian Cruise Line promotion available when your personalized quotation is prepared.

All cruise-line promotions are subject to Norwegian Cruise Line’s applicable terms, eligibility requirements and availability.

What Your 9-Day Package Includes

Your package brings the major elements of the vacation together:

Two nights at a Waikiki resort

Seven-night Pride of America Hawaii Islands cruise

Balcony Stateroom accommodations

Five rounds of Hawaii golf during the cruise

Pre-arranged tee times and prepaid green fees

Golf carts

Private transportation between the ship and scheduled golf courses

Applicable golf taxes, fees and driver gratuities

Transfer from your Waikiki resort to the cruise ship

Optional golf, accommodation upgrades, additional hotel nights, airfare, travel protection and other services can be added according to your travel plans.

A Different Kind of Hawaii Golf Vacation

You could fly to Maui and spend your entire vacation there.

You could play Kauai and never see Hawaii Island.

Or you could spend considerable time flying between the islands trying to create your own multi-destination golf itinerary.

This journey takes a different approach.

Spend two nights enjoying Waikiki.

Unpack aboard Pride of America.

Play Maui twice.

Discover Hawaii Island.

Golf Kauai twice.

And let the Pacific Ocean connect the experience.

For a first-time Hawaii golfer—or anyone who wants to experience more than one island in a single vacation—it is an unusually rewarding way to travel.

Package Pricing

The 9-Day Hawaii Islands Golf Cruise with Balcony Stateroom, two-night Waikiki resort stay, five golf rounds and private golf transportation currently starts from US$6,620 per person, based on double occupancy.

GOLF COURSES

GOLF Wailea Gold GC

Honored multiple times by industry experts, including Golfweek, Golf Digest, Golf Advisor, and Golf Magazine. Former home of the Champions Skins Game, the Gold has proudly hosted such legendary pros as Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, and Gary Player.

GOLF Wailea Emerald GC

Emerald is the USA’s first women-friendly golf course! Among the world’s great golf destinations, few shine as brightly as Wailea. Renowned for its ideal golf weather – typically sunny with gentle breezes – Wailea on the magical island of Maui is rated among the best golf courses in the USA by both Golf Magazine and Golf Digest. Here, you can experience the Wailea Golf Club, whose Championship Emerald course boasts breathtaking ocean views from every hole. The Wailea Emerald Course was designed to be fun for practically every player, and the 6,825-yard Wailea Emerald Course was one reason Golf for Women Magazine first granted the Wailea Golf Club a Top Fairways Award for the country’s most women-friendly golf club, an honor that the Wailea Golf Club received seven times. Other golf authorities agreed: LINKS Magazine and Golf Digest lauded Wailea’s picturesque Emerald as an excellent course for women. Despite its reputation as a women-friendly course, the Emerald Course is delightful for players of all skill levels. Its carpet-like fairways, fragrant tropical foliage, and numerous ocean and island vistas capture everything you can expect from a round of golf on the gorgeous island of Maui. While Emerald’s friendly fairways are not a cakewalk, the course is ideal for players who enjoy the challenge of golf but view it as an enjoyable form of recreation rather than a grueling test of concentration and precision. Memorable holes include #6, a par four downhill dogleg measuring 415 yards from the white tees. There’s plenty of landing area for your tee shot, but the green falls off sharply in all directions into grass bunkers, leaving you with a tricky pitch shot if your approach shot isn’t on the mark. Hole #11 is the longest on the course, measuring 535 yards from the white tees and typically playing into the wind, making it more challenging to reach the green. One of the more unusual features of the Emerald Course is the double green shared by holes #10 and #17. The green borders a 2.7-million-gallon brackish water lake and is one of the most picturesque spots on the course. The Emerald has four to six tee boxes per hole, allowing golfers to tailor the course to their skill level.

GOLF Mauna Lani GC or Mauna Kea GC

Mauna Lani Resort features two championship courses, the Francis H. Iwi Brown North and South. Both golf courses on the Island of Hawaii offer a challenging experience for novice and professional golfers alike. Mauna Lani was home to the Senior Skins Golf Game for 11 years and now hosts the prestigious Hawaii State Open in December.

GOLF Poipu Bay GC

Where Champions play! Here, nature and renowned designer Robert Trent Jones Jr. have conspired to create a stunning venue for golfers of all abilities. Play on the same course challenged by even the best professional golfers in the PGA Grand Slam of Golf. A unique and unforgettable golf experience awaits you, bringing every aspect of your game into sharp focus and fresh perspective. More than an award-winning Championship course, Poipu Bay Golf Course offers exceptional amenities, including an in-cart satellite navigation system that provides the exact distance to the hole and pin placement, complimentary bottled water, and refreshing cold towels. Visit the Golf Shop at Poipu Bay for fashionable logo golf wear after your round and tell them GolfAhoy sent you.

GOLF Ocean Course at Hōkūala

One signature Championship hole after another! Here, where the ocean meets the land, it is as good as a golfer’s life gets. The Ocean Course at Hōkūala has been completely renovated in anticipation of your visit. Winding through mango and guava groves to dramatic seaside cliffs, MSN Travel called the Ocean Course at Hōkūala one of the world’s twelve most beautiful courses. It’s little wonder that the list of accolades for this Jack Nicklaus Signature track is as long as its string of holes that hug the Pacific. This continuous stretch of oceanfront golf is the longest in Hawaii and a sure highlight of every visit.

Golfing Cruise Hawaii Pride of America.

About your Balcony Cabin on Pride of America. 9-Day Hawaii Islands Golf Cruise Balcony Cabin NCL Pride of America Hawaii Golf Cruise. The GolfAhoy 9 Day Hawaii Islands Golf Cruise Balcony Cabin and 5 Hawaii Islands Championship course golf rounds included package comes with a standard unobstructed view (no lifeboat hanging outside your balcony) – Balcony Cabin. The Balcony Cabins are clean, compact, and vibrant, with many Hawaiian touches. And a sofa bed means you can add a 3rd person if needed. Your balcony will include chairs, ottomans, and a small table. Considering your Hawaii golf cruise itinerary, it’s not spacious but large enough.

The seating area in your Balcony Cabin is like a Swiss Army knife: compact yet versatile, offering many features. Here, you will find a place to sit, a mirror, a telephone, a hairdryer, outlets, ship info, and an interactive TV. There’s a safe, big enough for valuables & small electronics, but not large enough for tablets or computers. And a mini-fridge stocked with items you’ll be charged for consuming, but you can squeeze your bottle of water in there. As you squeeze by your queen-size bed (which can be configured as twins), you’ll find a coffee maker, supplies, and more shelving space. The closet has your life vest, hangers, shelves, baskets, and even a single robe—you’ll need to ask your Cabin Steward for a second one. The bathroom is compact. You’ll find everything you need with generic soap and shampoo dispensers, tiny trash cans, and a shower. The Pride of America’s Balcony Staterooms are all you need to prepare for dinner and rest for your next day of Hawaiian Championship course golf.

Activities

The Hollywood Theater (Deck 5) is the main theater on board the Pride of America, hosting two events per night. During the weeklong cruise in Hawaii, passengers can see “Oh What A Night!”, a Jersey Boys-style tribute to Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, as well as “Vegas! The Show” and sets by professional comedians.

There is never a dull moment on board the Pride of America. Hawaiian enrichment classes, lei-making, and workshops on Hawaiian culture are offered daily by the ship’s “Hawaiian Ambassador.” A native of Hawaii, the onboard ambassador leads cruise-long educational seminars on Hawaii’s history and culture and even holds a closing ceremony/graduation for participants at the end of the cruise. Trivia is available daily, including Ping-Pong tournaments, arts and crafts classes, dance classes, putt-putt golf challenges, shuffleboard, and culinary demonstrations.

In addition to the Hollywood Theater productions, karaoke is offered most nights on Pride of America, typically in the Gold Rush Saloon, and evening sports trivia tournaments are held at the John Adams Coffee Bar.

There are 96 Pride of America Hawaii Islands Shore Excursions for non-golfing Travel Companions.

Some people mistakenly believe they can obtain a lower cruise fare by booking directly with the cruise line, since travel agents earn a commission on bookings. This is NOT true! If the price of a seven-day Hawaii cruise booked directly with the cruise line is, say, $10,000 per couple, the cruise line will not reduce or discount the price by 10% simply because it is not paying a travel agent a 10% commission. They will still charge you the full amount and pocket the difference. The cruise line pays the commission, but you do not. Your GolfAhoy agent will provide you with the exact price the cruise line will charge. Additionally, we’ll handle all your golf arrangements at no service charge.
