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.

Dunes

As a 1st timer to this course it would have been nice to know the course layout. Did not know that we would not get back to clubhouse until after 18 holes. Would have bought drinks and snacks. Didn’t look at scorecard map until into the round

New to Maui

First time playing on the island and even though had rain on a couple of holes, had a great time. Look forward to playing again!

Hidden Gem

What a cool course. This is a great little track that sits quietly between the city and suburbia but often feels like it’s miles out in the country. The holes are all different and interesting, most of the fairways are wide enough, and the greens are challenging (made more so with that shovel I rented from Jimmy)! The tee boxes are a little rough, but most of the fairways are in great shape, and the greens were in excellent condition. Played in under three hours with a regular and enjoyed it so much I’m going back tomorrow. A good deal and I recommend it.

Ps. Don’t like hole 10 but at least will have a target tomorrow - the left most tree down the hill with a little cut. Good luck with that one!
