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.

Not worth your time or money.

No facilities on course, when making the turn you are not near the clubhouse. Friendly staff and Marshall but not worth spending a day out there. Pay for the nicer courses in Maui if you are looking to play golf.

Great Course, staff lacking in service!

The course was in great shape, both fairways and greens. Fortunately, I avoided the bunkers so I can't comment on them.

I would have given the course a five-star overall rating if not for the staff. They lacked customer service.

Nice Course

The on site restaurant food was good. Had breakfast to go to eat on course.

Had a few rain sprinkles then passed through quickly.

Play was a little slow.

Course in good condition. My husband liked the up and down play of the elevation.

I liked the extra distance on par 5s on red tees.

Practice Round

The course layout is ok. The condition of the course is not great. The staff favors the locals. There is not great offerings for food and there is no beverage cart. The weather was the best part of the day. Just being in Maui speaks volumes.
