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.

Pace of play was slow. Water on course scarce. Grab your snacks, beverages before you tee off! Challenging course layout. Will return.

Good value

Tough layout with a lot of elevation changes and rolling dunes. Tough to get a flat lie. Make sure you bring food and water. No beverage cart or ability to get food after 9 holes. Greens are slow. Public course and it shows but good value for the money. Quite a few blind tee shots and it would help to have a range finder. Gas powered carts are old.

Natural setting golf course

Natural setting course design is good.

Golf cart has no GPS.

Golf cart makes loud noise due to gas rather than electric vehicle

Fun stop

Was a great day to stop and play on way to airport for late overnight flight home. Challenging in that you don’t see a lot of the greens - and then the greens can have undulations you don’t know about! Makes for interesting ball locations when you get to the green. We had a great time, was my first time playing this course however my husband has played a few times.

Interesting Fun Course

Got a smoking deal on Golf Now and was expecting “average / ok” course. I don’t know how it is all the time, but at 8:30 we only had a twosome in front of us and we got done in 3 1/2 hours (AWESOME).

AND, the course was in great condition (except for the sand traps, of which many were kinda muddy).

Overall, nice elevation change, good views oacross the valley of Haleakala, and challenging with several different trees to choose from.

Underrated course.

Very nice course. Greens and fairways well tended. Interesting layout which adds to the pleasure of play. We got out right after a tournament so we were able to play fast so I’m not sure of a normal pace of play. I will definitely come back.

Bring your A game to the Dunes!

The was our first time playing The Dunes and we will definitely play it again. It was very challenging from the Green tees especially with the wind. One of the best values on the island.

Now my favorite course on Maui

Played here on a recommendation from a friend. I have played the Wailea courses, the Kaanapali courses and the Kampala courses. This course was fun for a reasonable price. In great shape.

Except for the Plantation course ( which is too expensive in my opinion) this is Maui’s best.
