The classic design of Maui Nui Golf Club combines different elements including reachable holes that face each cardinal point with strong prevailing winds that reward smart play for a layout that is both fair and challenging. The layout wanders through the foothills of Haleakula, providing subtle elevation changes as well as views of the ocean and the surrounding West Maui Mountains and the volcanic atoll Molokini. The golf course has a variety of holes that will have you hitting downwind, upwind, and with both left and right crosswinds. A few lakes and ponds also come into play. Maui Nui Golf Club's layout features generous fairways and large greens. The difficulty of the course depends heavily on the speed of the prevailing winds that day. Golfers will be greatly rewarded by keeping the ball in play and good putting and chipping skills.

OK course but little disappointed

This course is ok for good value for the green fee I paid . However, Hawai’i trip all the way from socal, I was disappointed. It is like municipal course. The greens are not well maintained. Like others pointed out, grass clippings are all over the place. It may be using as mulch.

Nice Course

It was a nice course. My son & I were matched up with a couple of other golfers. It was very enjoyable to talk to other people while golfing. The course was good for the price paid. We are not pro golfers so we did not need a top line golf course. There was a lot of grass cuttings sitting around which I was surprised by as I have never seen this on any golf courses I have ever been. This would be the only negative point I would have. Value for the money!

Perfectly Enjoyable

A perfect way to spend a day with you wife and enjoy the panoramic views of Maui while golfing. The course is challenging but extremely fair for all players, and the cost is reasonable for the green fees and the cart which has a GPS system. The staff is very helpful and professional and go out of their way to ensure that all golfers are attended to. Make sure to bring your camera and extra golf balls.

Played on a Hot Deal and was definitely worth it. Occasionally, you get an ocean view. Wish the beverage cart moved around the course, rather than sitting on one hole.

Good Maui Golf

I’m a 15 handicap and play a lot of golf in Florida. But this is an Florida it’s Maui, so I took that into consideration when I found out the course had some construction going on and all the holes were not laid out as they should be. lotta par threes to compensate for the construction, I finally quit keeping score on the card because I wasn’t sure really what hole I was on, but that did not take away the fun and adventure of this golf course. I had an absolute wonderful time. The views on the back are very nice and the greens are challenging to put because of the grain. fairways were great. Bunkers were superb and the price was great. The printed scorecard does tell you that it is an alternative layout because of the construction so go have a great round of golf. Just don’t expect to put it toward your handicap in the system!

Aloha, thank you for your review! We understand because of number 17 green renovation the hole lay out is different. We have since then changed the scorecard and GPS to match and make it less confusing. We are glad you still had a ton of fun on the golf course ! We hope to see you again soon. Mahalo

Course has one closed hole and one temporary hole due to maintenance. Other parts of the course could be in better conditions. Greens were very slow. Pace of play was good.
