For golfers looking for a great Maui experience, your destination is The Dunes at Maui Lani.

Golf's most respected journalists agree: The Dunes is a must-play. Golf magazine named it among the top 35 best new golf courses in America, while Golf Digest called it one of the five "Best Kept Secret Golf Courses in America."

Designed by Robin Nelson, The Dunes at Maui Lani is immaculately maintained and brilliantly laid out. It is a tribute to the great links courses of Ireland that more than one golf writer has described as a "British Open course on Maui." Stunning dunes dot the terrain at every corner, challenging the golfer at every hole.

In addition to 18 holes of championship golf, The Dunes offers the only lighted practice range in central Maui, with grass tees, fairway and green-side bunkers and a pitching and putting green, plus an air-conditioned pavilion. Also, when not on the golf course, golfers can enjoy a four-star meal at Cafe O'Lei at The Dunes.

Absolutely loved this course. They did everything with a smile and a sense of welcome that you’ll find at your home course. Will be playing again if I can.

Beautiful course. Even with recently aerified greens, the course was fun to play. Might rebook for tomorrow!

My Favorite on Maui

Good to be back at this course after a few years. Course maybe not as pretty as I remember it in terms of conditioning. Greens much slower than I remembered. I was told they were going to aerate later in the week so maybe just poor timing on my part. Course is fun, challenging and enjoyable to play.

Always a good round at the Dunes!

The usual excellent golf round was found at Maui Lani on April 20th. My only complaint is that the greens were the slowest I’d ever experienced the Dunes

Fun course, Pace of play was horrible on back nine

Course is a fun track with both easy and challenging holes. Ran into a complete logjam on back nine when two foursomes joined up and played as an eightsome. No rangers seen on course during the day. Figured they might have a ranger out on a Saturday.
