Makani Golf Club

This used to be a wonderful course. The views are spectacular, the layout interesting and a signature island hole. But the mowing is terrible. If you miss the narrow cut fairways by a few inches you are in 6 inch high rough. The greens are incredibly slow now. The bunkers are a mess. I hope someone buys it and revives this course with so much potential.

The course has not been maintained, grass on fairways is very sparse and more like a few clumps of weeds amongst dry dirt. Bunkers filled with weeds and not raked. Tee boxes were also just clumps of weeds. Very slow play and no marshal around. The surroundings are beautiful, could be a top notch course but in desperate need of maintenance.

Course used to be in good shape, now like playing in a cow pasture. Save your money and play someplace else.

Excellent course. The course layout is great as is the view. Being higher ejevation, the temperature was very pleasant. The conditìns are not resort quality but are still excellent. It was great fun.

We accidentally booked this course and it was a pleasant surprise! We had so much fun! Every hole is different . The greens were nice and smooth. The staff were very friendly and helpful! We’ll be back!

Fun course with great variety of holes. Course was in nice condition. A few holes the rough was long and difficult to find balls but mostly not a problem. It has been an enjoyable and will definitely be back. The best value so far on island

Picturesque on many holes, but rough was too long and couldn't find your balls even if standing right next to it. Greens are still recovering from aeration a fee weeks ago, but wasn't a deterrence for many. Another negative was the yardage markers??? Couldn't find them on half the holes maybe use of colored stakes would be better than small plaques somewhere in the fairways!!?? So without GPS, hard to gauge distance!

Still got to golf in Hawaii!!!!!!

I love the layout and how fast we played. Good value on a Hot Deal.

By far one of the best courses to play on the island. No condos, no houses, no crowds, just laid back beauty on a gorgeous well kept course.

Skip the high dollar low value resort courses and treat yourself to some of the most scenic golf you will play. Well worth the drive, staff were very friendly and helpful.

The only negative was the lack of a clubhouse restaurant, but a small price to pay for this opportunity.

Go to Kona country club for an ocean course and this one for a mountain course. This course has it all though, sweeping views of the ocean, and breathtaking views of the mountains, you will not be disappointed!!

Well kept course. Nice setting and views. Vegetation and wildlife outstanding. We had 3 holes of steady showers and fog. Carts were not supplied with towels and there was no club cover on back of cart so grips and cart seats got very wet. Rental clubs so so with no hybrids or sand wedge. Got a hot deal from Golf Now which saved about $75 overall.Above price includes rental clubs which were about $60.

The Couse has a beautiful view and could use some attention. Staff are ok but failed to tell anyone that there is no place, except at pro shop, which is way off the course to get any drinks or food and should have mentioned it at check in. You need to bring your own. Greens need attention as well as fairways and second cuts. Management needs to step it up, if they have any.

A nice blend of challenge with water, trees, lava, elevation changes and Island fauna. Unfortunately, the greens were not as smooth, but playable.
