Makani Golf Club

Always a pleasure to play. The greens are in great shape. The design is typical Pete Dye, challenging.

Another great Dye design. I have played this course many times over 15 years and find it in excellent condition every time.

The course was beautiful and windy. Tricky on some holes, but easier on others. Played by myself and joined a twosome in front of me. It is the course they paly on all of the time. I was slowed down by a twosome and was upset,about the pace of play...until I learned one of the golfers was legally blind and was golfing with son. I felt so stupid, I told them I admired his dad and shook his dad's hand. I will never. ever complain about pace of play again. Good day overall....i learned to be more patient and much more humble. I'll be back!

Decided to play here based on local recommendations. Great surprise! Excellent mountain views and surroundings. Very good course conditions. Dye course characteristics (island green, lots of of wood bordering lakes)

Variety of hole designs will keep you interested

Great course and very beautiful. Be prepared to sacrifice some golf balls to Pele and don't waste time looking for them in the long grass and bushes.

First round at Makani....love this course. The greens are true and sometimes fast. 5 sets of tee boxes....I played white and it was challenging. The wind that day made shot and club selection tricky. The signature 17th island green was fabulous...I did not do well on it. The staff outside and in pro shop were cheerful and helpful. Got 2 bottles of water for the round. This is now one of my favorites on the Big Island.

This is a hidden gem in the Big Island for golf. The course is a fun layout. Just FYI, the clubhouse is small and does not have restaurant or bar, it is all grab and go.

Great little course for the money, fairly tight and your shots have to be calculated to be successful. Would come back

I enjoyed my round here. Was less manicured than the resort courses which gave me a local feel which I really enjoyed. Greens were fast and true. Lost a couple balls after hitting.good shots due to no buffer between fairway and thick vegitation. That's perhaps my only complaint. Enjoyed the periodic cool breezes on a warm day too.

Acceptable price for not-local players.

Wonderful view of shoreline of Cohara coast.

Pretty animals are waiting you.

Turkeys sheeps dugs goats hens and more.

It’s an animal farm.
