Royal Ka'anapali

We played behind a tournament and there was NO Marshall on the course to monitor play. OVER 5 hours to play. Nats were everywhere and got in my eyes, mouth and ears. Also, Cart lady just came around twice. WAILEA OR Kapula are much better options.

Beautiful views and excellent conditions. Teed off 11 am and it was windy

Greens in great shape. Some great views of Maui. Lot of variety to the holes. Fairways a little splotchy, but hey, just play the ball up as you are not on the tour. For amount of cost, really a big bang for your buck. Add this course to your list of courses to play on the East side when you are in Maui. My son rented clubs and I was really impressed with the Taylor Made Stealth 2 that he got, (woods and irons) plus Taylor Made putter. I have been to some nicer resorts that did not have rentals this nice.

Insuring golf tee times months in advance. Found course was in "aeration mode. Course kind enough to discount the round. I imagine this is beautiful and a challenge course when in perfect conditions.

I booked my tee time for Aug 4th at 2pm through GolfNow at a total cost of $144. A large fire closed the highway that afternoon so I was stopped in traffic and turned back, unable to make my time. I did not want to cancel as I would lose my $24 deposit, but just move my time forward to Aug 5th. I called several times to move my time which the booking agent was able to accommodate. However, I was charged a full price of $156 over and above the initial $24 deposit, so my total cost was $USD180. This was extremely frustrating as the fire was out of my control. Kaanapali said they could not adjust my $156 fee and that GolfNow would be able to credit back the $24, however they refused to honor the original price. I would NOT recommend using GolfNow!

This is the nicer one out of the 2 coureses. Much more scenic. Course was in great shape and we did our around in 3 hours 14 minutes. It was not the cheapest course in Maui but worth playing

Played the Royal yesterday and it was great. Will definitely play it again

Great long course, conditions were excellent and the greens were challenging.

Only complaint was the nats. There was about 6-7 holes that there were a lot of nats. I found a ton of dead nats all over my clothes and body going through them.

Decent course, but definitely not worth the money. The amenities aren't great, the staff isn't friendly, and worst of all, they don't sell alcohol on the course, nor can you take hard alcohol to go from the restaurant.

Beautiful... Getting out of the rough took some adjustment. Greens are protected by sand traps. I will try the Kai course next time we are in Maui..

Excellent golf course with panoramic views. When makes it very challenging for the afternoon. Traps make you think on every shot. Challenging but very playable. Very much enjoyed my round!
