Makani Golf Club

Great course with challenges for every level. Great condition, friendly staff & awesome views. A must play when you’re staying In Kailua-Kona.

I've been playing this course for years, back when it was literally a goat track. Even with bare spots and slow greens it was fun. Now it's a different course, even though the routing is unchanged. The fully redone greens are fast and true, and the course still offers plenty of options and challenge from the right tees. There's a great mix of short and longer holes. Playable for all, but you have to use some strategy to score well.

Hopefully you take advantage of 15 and 16, because 17/18 can be a tough finish if the wind is blowing.

The course and staff exceeded my expectations. It was in excellent condition! It was a great value for what I paid to play. Also, a staff member adjusted the rental clubs driver to my exact specs. The only small detail that could be improved is that the greens were a little too hard and didn’t hold that well, but that is very minor. It was my first time there and I will gladly play it again and adjust for the greens now that I have course knowledge.

Nice surprise from this off the beaten path course. It's a bit of a target shoot but almost all holes a picturesque.

I love this course because it is challenging. It is fair and requires some planning to avoid trouble. It has a solid finish with 16,17 and 18 providing drama.

The scenery is spectacular and is a perfect setting for golf.

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!
