Nice lava rock lined course

A well maintain course. The pace of play was better than average, about 4hr15min. We enjoyed very much the different course setting with plenty of lava rocks. There are a few holes with ocean views but otherwise an inland course. Overall a very nice experience.

The greens on the slow side as compared to our regular course’s. Many fairways are wide open but a few are a bit challenging with either narrow or trees- splitting fairways.

The price is pretty stiff, over value, probably carried over from the more famous South Course. If you have time and don’t mind spending extra, it would be a good experience.

A finalist for the most beautiful courses I have played in my life.

I have played a lot of golf in my life, in a lot of countries, this course is a finalist for the most beautiful.. The tees, fairways, bunkers and greens were immaculate. My daughter and I played as a twosome in the afternoon and never encountered any delays in the pace of play. The setting was a photo worthy view on every hole. The staff in the pro shop were friendly and quick to serve us. The starter gave great advise, our tee time was right on time. The bag handlers met us at the bag drop and answered our questions. The refreshment cart was timely and friendly. What more can I say. I wish I could play this course more.

Another. First class day on a wonderful course.

The weather was fantastic. The fare ways were beautiful. The greens were challenging but a little slow. Staff was friendly and helpful. Pace of play was a little slow but not bad. We could never enjoy the afternoon more.

Great Day on the Course

Played with my Dad today and we really enjoyed the North course. Fairways were in really good condition, a few of the tee boxes were a bit spotty, but the greens were gorgeous. The lay of the course was beautiful and challenging, so we had a great time!

Out of bounds * 2 for GolfNow

LET ME START BY SAYING A BIG THANK YOU TO THE STAFF AT MAUNA LANI. FOR FIXING THE ERRORS OF GOLFNOW

Very frustrated with GolfNow, I booked Hapuna Golf course for today. last Friday the course staff contacted me to say that GolfNow didn’t alert users that they had aerated the course and they highly encouraged me to rebook elsewhere as the greens were still not good. When I did this GolfNow refused to reimburse me and instead sent me 10+ $20 coupons to be used next time I book some golf, covering the cost of the booking.

I then booked MAUNA LANI North Course - when I arrived there today I was told the North Course was aerated and the greens were not in good condition. Again the golf course was explaining to me what GolfNow didn’t.

Thankfully the staff were able to find a slot on the South Course for my son and I. Really enjoyable round but very frustrated with GolfNow

What a way to wreck a place

If you love time share selling practices, this is your place

Troop is know for squeezing everything out of you and let the service fail

Club house restaurant closed for “rethinking “

If you want to rethink, dump Troon like others have

If you go there , great course. But bent over and think of Christmas

The other great course in big island

This was my second best course in the big island to the south course. Even though the scenery was not as beautiful as the south course, the layout was more challenging and fun. The course is just as well taken care as the south. I played in Mauna Kea too but the courses in Mauna Lani are much better kept and not crowded.

Outstanding Course

My brother in law and I were staying on the 8th fairway and we decided to play one more round that week. It was a little more money than we expected but was well worth it. I have played a number of courses all over the world and this is in my top 5 . Loved the layout, had our cheering section on the balcony of our residence as we played the 8th hole. The greens putted true and the scenery was outstanding. The only critique i might have is that there could have been better and more sand in the traps. Otherwise it was a really enjoyable experience. Didnt hurt that I shot a 79 . 5 stars for sure.

Great Course and great staff

Spent 3 weeks on the Big Island and had several great experiences on both Mauna Lani golf courses. The South course gets all the attention because of several ocean holes but the North is a real hidden gem. The layout is tighter, most holes are tree lined with some nice undulations. A nice mixture of Par 4s and Par 3s with a couple of Ocean holes. The course condition was outstanding, the outside staff and in shop staff were very friendly and helpful. Our experience at Mauna Lani was better than my experience at my private club in Arizona. I encourage you to visit the Mauna Lani Golf Resort and experience the wonderful staff, great course conditions and the hidden gem, North course.

Incredibly manicured course

What an amazing experience. Beautiful course that was my first big island golf experience. Well laid out North Course that I would definitely play again. The Tee boxes and greens looked as if they had never been played on. Fairways were carpet like. The rough grass is very challenging to hit out of. It’ll grab your club if not done just right.

Tuscon golf in a tropical paradise

A terrific rolling mesquite tree lined course whose only clue to Hawaii is the couple of holes out to the ocean palm trees. Paspalum grass greens and fairways were near perfect. Great use of well trimmed old large trees in the fairways on several of the inland holes. Position off the tee requires a bit of local knowledge that the hole layout cards don't readily show. Elevation changes were nicely designed unlike the quirky and penal Mauna Kea a few miles up the road. Worth the trip from the mainland and along with the more tropical lava and palm lined South course offers two distinct different challenges that you could play day after day. Just oddly felt like I was playing in Tucson as the lava outcroppings were almost non existent until the famous par three #17. Hit a few iron and wedge shots from the unique thick rough before you play, it really sticks the blade and requires more uumph to get thru vs. the common bermuda at Mauna Lani's lesser neighbors.

Spectacular

What a gem. This is a 2 course complex (North and South) managed by Troon. The North course in actually mostly in a valley and carved through the lava flows and trees. Beautiful views of the ocean and the lava fields.

This was a windy day and it made some shots very difficult. Lot of sand and taller trees to contend with. All well placed.

Course conditions couldn't have been better. Well watered and maintained fairways, tees and greens. The greens were wonderful. Firm but could hold a long shot in.

Play both courses. We actually changed to play both twice.
