Makani Golf Club

Excellent for higher handicap players. Hold 17 and 18 are too hard for average player

The condition of the fairways and greens was generally good. What was poor was the condition of the supporting infrastructure, such as:

- frequently poor state of areas around greens and approaches

- poor state of many cart paths, curbs, and steps

- empty or half-filled ponds, exposing the plastic liner where there is one

- wood or pipes lying around

- vegetation often overgrown

While I understand the rate is lower than the courses down on the Kohala Coast that are in a better state, the course overall seemed like it has been neglected. I don't blame the staff, but the course owner who needs to put money into it. It's unfortunate because the views are indeed great.

Please put the member tee blocks on the

Correct member tee boxes!

Would be nice to see some work being done to

Rehabilitate the tee boxes & fairways.

Greens are very good if a bit slow.

No gps, no indication. Just a little print of the course on the score card. The course itself is not bad but so many blind shots …. Must play it with somebody who knows this course

Except for a single par 3 the layout was excellent. Pace of play wasn't good, no Marshall or checks. Course fairway conditions not great but greens were fine

Driving through the front gates and seeing #17 gives you an idea of how great this course is going to be. Staff is unbelievably friendly and there to make sure you enjoy your round. Good selection of shirts, hats and ball markers for the visitor to take home as well. The course demands accuracy off the tee, so put your ego aside and play the appropriate tees to enjoy yourself. Blacks are a beast, blues were challenging and it looked like most played whites (males) and reds (ladies). Greens are grainy with some undulations but very fair. Highly recommended.

Very lovely course with great views and fun wildlife.

Although the weather was overcast and sometimes misting we truly enjoyed the course. It was not so difficult that my wife couldn’t enjoy it, but it had enough challenges to keep me on my toes!

Kinda out in the middle of nowhere, but worth the drive. Some chalking holes, so be prepared to lose some balls. Views aren’t spectacular, but lots of wildlife. Turkeys, chickens, geese, pigs, goats…

On our holidays, we have golfed on this course about 5 times over the years. The greens have improved. Less goats wondering the course. Feels like a home course. Love it. The starter was awesome, friendly, funny and extremely accommodating. I wish I would have gotten his name. Nice vistas and we loved the island green.

When we first arrived, we were taken back by the scenery. What a fantastic panorama of the ocean from a few thousand feet. The course played well with many challenges along the way. There were several elevated tees including the 17th signature hole which, after dropping 2 balls each into the drink, we quickly moved on from. Reasonable rates with Golf Now credits and I would definitely recommend this course to all who visit the area.
