Makani Golf Club

Great golf holes. Plenty of challenge. Loved all the variety of vegetation and scenery. Great views of both mountains. Would definitely return.

Course has a really nice layout, not too long, and challenging. Fairways and greens in great condition and the carts had good power/speed! Definitely would recommend to others and play again. The carts come with a couple of waters and ice, bring your own snacks.

For 30 years we have enjoyed this course as it has morphed over the years. We do miss the animals that used to roam freely….but it is a lovely golf experience….do your best to keep the ball in the short hair and you,ll finish with a big smile,

Truly enjoyed this course. The layout and the vegetation simply beautiful.

This is a great course layout (Dye Design) that just needs investors or a management team to operate and maintain the course properly.

There is no clubhouse. A lot of additional mowing and trimming are needed. The “pro shop” is in a tent that desperately needs repairs or replacement. The Driving range is funky as you have to hit down into a gully, so there’s no way to properly assess distance. There is no food service of any kind there.

The people working there were great. This course could be a real winner however, some serious investment and TLC is needed.

Being that everything is expensive in Hawaii, the cost of playing this course may seem a bit high, but it is a good value. There was hardly anybody there, the pace of play was relaxed, without stress and you could make it what you want. Everyone there was super friendly and welcoming. Being up in the mountains and away from the west Shoreline was a beautiful change for the day. The holes were definitely challenging, but super fun. My son and husband commented that whether you play from the blues or the blacks, it would challenge even the best golfer. The forward tees were extremely accommodating for any beginner or senior player.

Very nice layout….unfortunately, like most courses there, they are experiencing a four year drought.

Really fun track up in the country about 30 min from civilization. Tee boxes are chewed up at best and fairways patchy but fortunately the greens were very good. Cooler air than down at sea level but greater chance of showers too. Can be challenging for all levels depending on tees selected. Much better value than the overpriced ocean front tracks.

Challenging track but fair. You have to think your way through. Fairways dry no rain and irrigation issues however was not bad. Place is well taken care of. No cart person on course so prepare.

Great golf course with beautiful driving views and approaches. Staff was super friendly and everyone on the course let me play thru as a single. Tough from the tips!

Nice layout, most fairways are in a bowl, thus hitting on either side ball rolls down to middle. Only negative, due to sprinkler issues little or no grass in fairways.

Green is best condition.

Course layout is tactical.

Beautiful course in the mountains above Kailua-Kona. Absolutely picturesque, crowned by the sawgrass-like 17th island hole.

Playing in a rainforest was stunning. The staff was very friendly too. A+. Call ahead and speak with the Proshop if you're a veteran for a special discount.
