"I recently moved to Tauranga and looked at several golf courses before choosing Omanu. I've played here for approximately five months and know that I made the right decision. The course has enough challenge to make it interesting, but not so challenging that it is too hard for an older golfer. Another plus is my fellow members who have all made me very welcome"

"I joined the Omanu Golf Club, on the recommendation of friends, last year having shifted to Papamoa from Morrinsville in the Waikato. I have found the club to be very friendly and accommodating to new members.
I quickly settled in because of this but have not mastered the course! The course is very well presented and the clubhouse facilities are excellent. Coming from a Club with few fully employed staff to one with a relatively large number of staff has been an eye opener. Without exception all staff have been friendly and accommodating when I have come into contact. With a large number of members the course is busy at most times but I have always been welcomed to play with other members. The players sections all seem well organized with events being well patronized which indicates a good club spirit."

"Omanu is an ideal club for the older players. Ideal for new members. Roll up starts to meet other players, and an easy walking course.
Mixed vets days and plenty of opportunity for play on most days"

"This year will be my third season at Omanu and I must say I have been welcomed with open arms. The friends I have made in that time have certainly made my choice of club definitely the right one.(or maybe they’re only friends because I seem to have to buy them beer a lot of the time !!!) - The camaraderie, the social side, all of the staff including the wonderful caterers and bar personnel are awesome, not to mention a great golf course, have all made this move the right one for me"

"Having been a regular Saturday player I recently retired at an early age. Having time on my hands I joined the vets. In true club style I was welcomed into this group and have met some excellent people. I now really look forward to my golf on Tuesday and Friday mornings in additional to the Saturdays. Definitely a friendly well managed club"

"Some of us had previously played the course and for others it was a first time experience. We all very much enjoyed the experience and greatly appreciated the welcome we received. I thought the course was excellent - the fairways were great and I loved the poa greens. I am only slightly influenced in my praise for the course by my 41 stableford points. Without question we would wish to come again next year when our group does another trip away"
