Fun course!
Played this 3 times on our visit to Maui. It’s a fun course to play and the pace of play is good. Outside staff is good. The older women in the pro shop is horrible. She talks over people, is extremely rude and unhelpful. . Would be nice to have a beverage cart on course or bigger coolers to accommodate more beverages. It can be extremely hot on the course and you don't go back to the clubhouse until hole 18. No on course snack shack either.
Great resort course
Royal course was in great shape. Pace of play was good for a resort course. We will play again next time we are in Kaanapali.
Greens are Ridiculous!
The greens are ridiculous. Should not have a resort course with greens that are that tricky. A Putt should not go straight and then break 90 degrees at the last 18” to the hole for not obvious reason.
Aloha and thanks for taking the time to review our courses. Yes, when the trade winds on the islands kick up like we've seen the last few days, putting can be very treacherous. The the greens also get faster as the day goes on making an even bigger challenge. We hope you give us another chance when putting becomes a bit easier. A Hui Hou (until we meet again)!
Great views and well bunkered greens for a resort course.
They course is fun and was in pretty good shape except for a good par 4 they turned into a par 3 for no apparent reason. I can’t believe a Maui course does not have covers for the clubs if it rains. Also very limited cart service. They don’t even give you a bottle of water. Great views and well bunkered greens made up for the other short comings. Staff in the pro shop so so. Guys on the course and in the cart barn were very friendly.
Aloha and thanks for your feedback. We are in the process of repair a storm drain underneath that fairway. It will be safe again very soon and it will play as a par 4 again.
We hope to see you again soon. A Hui Hou (until we meet again)!

Golfing Hawaii
As a senior over 80 the Royal course was enjoyable and challenging, thank you

The Royal
I found the fairways generous sizes, bunkers in good condition, and the greens tough to putt at times. Navigating the wind made the course play tough but fair. If you enjoy a challenge this is the course for you especially from the blue tees. Mahalo!

Fun course- but some improvements needed
Was disappointing to have 7th hole tee box under repair and have a hokey tee box making it so short and no effort to make tee box even decent. Should not be paying full price with one entire hole basically useless. Would like to see beverage cart with beer or drinks available.
Other than that in very good shape, great views and fun course to play.
Aloha and thank you for your feedback. We are doing our best make that hole safe again so our guests can play it again as a par 4. As it is, it's still a very challenging uphill par 3 with a 3-tiered green and 5 bunkers protecting the green. Hope you’ll give us another chance in the future as we expect to complete the emergency repairs shortly. Mahalo.
Aloha friend. We will be sure to let our team know you enjoyed your round of golf with us. We hope to see you again soon. A Hui Hou (until we meet again)!
Sand traps
Course was enjoyable, except for the sand traps. Tough to get out of especially with the lack of sand. Most spots I was in was less than 1” with some underlying rocks and/or roots.
Aloha and thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear that maybe not all but most of your round was quite enjoyable. Hope you’ll give us another chance in the future. Mahalo.
Not bad
I was here for 10 days and love to play golf, so I bought the 5 round deal, which basically equates the 1 free round. The Royal is a decent track. Personally, I think the front is the nice 9 and features pretty much the only doglegs on the course. The back is most straight with elevation changes. With the exception of #17 there are no interesting Par 3’s. As mentioned, it’s a decent golf course and they keep it in good condition, although it is worth mentioning they didn’t change pins between days a few times, and this resulted in unsightly frayed holes around the edges. Greens were solid and rolled well despite being a bit on the thicker side. It’s an open track and the elements are the biggest challenge. I’d say it plays longer than the yardage. Staff was courteous and the range is fine. I’m glad I played it. There are some fabulous views in a few spots. Pricing is high for the experience and there’s zero dollar value at $235 a round. This is a $75 golf course anywhere other than Hawaii, and they also benefit from no local competition other than Kapalua.
Mahalo for playing and sharing your review. We appreciate you and look forward to seeing you again soon.
Greens were slow and shaggy. Still showed effects of recent aeration.
Aloha and Mahalo for giving us your feedback. Yes, we're just finished our spring aerification on both courses and the greens are rolling beautifully now. We will be sure to let our team know you enjoyed your experience with us. We hope to see you again soon!

Mahalo for the great rating. Please come again!
Large tine punched Greens
Cancelled booking, I was not advised the the greens were punched and re opened the day we were supposed to play.
Staff was friendly and cancelled my time but did not get my refund from Golfpass.
Aloha,
I believe your booking was through "GolfNow" and therefore the confusion. Please contact me directly at kreul@kaanapaligolfcourses.com
I will need some more details about your reservation and will process your refund. Very sorry for the misunderstanding. Mahalo. GM.
