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.

Great Value!

Had a wonderful round! The staff is really friendly and very accommodating. The course was fairly wide and had some ocean views. You can't get any better price for the value. We rented clubs from them and received a bag of 6 balls along with newer Callaway clubs. The course and driving range aren't in the best condition, but we had a really fun time!

Save your money if you’re visiting Maui.

Played Maui Nui prior to traveling home from vacation. This is easily one of the worst golf courses I’ve ever played. Took ovet 5 hours and we had to leave early to catch our flight. Course layout was promising but it was in horrible condition and not worth the price if you don’t get a local discount. Had to move pretty much every ball in the fairway to find grass, greens rolled like shag carpeting, all of the water containers on the course were empty on a hot day and the driving range had real Tin-Cup vibes. Save your money if you’re in Maui on vacation. At least the staff was very friendly!

Poor conditions

Course is not in very good shape, pace of play, wait on every hole with only groups of two in front, no marshall. One twosome only had one set of clubs, where is marshal? Not worth the money, Pukalania waybetter n less money.

Golf morning at Maui nui

Not as manicured as Wailea Blue. A couple of bunkers were solid clay. Greens were slow but in good shape.. Rental clubs were good. Overall decent value for the money.

Affordable course in Kihei

Accommodating staff and blazing pace of play - 18 holes in just over 3 hours!

Fun course in decent shape, very playable with a few water features and a fair amount of bunkers.

At around $100 including cart it’s the best deal in Maui!

Best game for your buck

Played Maui Nui many times over the past years, the course is always rather open to play and staff is normally accommodating to fit you in. The pace of play is great, and getting a round in under 4 hours is very easy to do. Conditions of the course are typically good to very good, but usually work is being done somewhere on course but at least they are repairing when needed. Play early to avoid afternoon winds and it will be that much more enjoyable.

Maui noi

The greens were in terrible condition in most cases. The tee boxes weren’t much better. The course itself was in fair shape. A very disappointing round. The course has gotten far worse than it used to be. Not good value for the money any more. Other courses in Maui are far better.

Good deal for Hawaii

Wonderful staff at the carts and clubhouse! Course was a bit worn out from what I remember 4 years ago. Good affordable price for typical Hawaiian rates for non-residents. Enjoyed my time but a lot of new golfers and couples trying to teach each other made for a slow day. Greens very slow. Running at a 8-9.
