Pukalani Country Club has a unique location at the 1,100-foot elevation of the famous Mount Haleakala, an extinct volcano whose name means “House of the Rising Sun.” The dramatic elevation offers breathtaking views that span the West Maui Mountains to the Pacific Ocean. The golf course features wide, undulating fairways and fast, sloped greens. The gently rolling terrain can cause some tricky uneven lies. There are trees and well placed bunkers scattered throughout to provide further challenge. Pukalani Country Club has a unique feature on the par-3 third hole. The hole gives golfers the options of hitting to one of two very different greens, one which requires a tee shot over a tree-filled gully and another that requires a shot beyond a cliff to a pal tree-lined green.

Beautiful Day for Golf at Pukalani

A perfect day for golf at Pukalani. The course is in great shape and the greens were excellent. Being a 20 handicap this is a challenging course and I appreciate that it is usually in good condition.

Good course - rental clubs need some help

Enjoyed the course. Greens were in good shape as were fairways etc. Rental clubs were OK except the bags were torn which meant you couldn’t use some of the slots. Men’s set had 12 clubs for $45. Ladies set had 10 clubs for $45.

Great day of golf.

We thoroughly enjoyed our day of golf at Pukalana . Is it a country club? No. Was it a great place to play golf? Yes price is right. Conditions were very good. Typical Hawaiian golf course uphill downhill tree lined fairways wide, friendly to tourists and we had a really good time. Pace of play was 4 hours. I would go back even though it is a bit out of the way. Beautiful views.

Snack bar had the BEST cheeseburger in HI.

Top 20 Golf Course? Yeah, Right

When you arrive for the first time, you might think that the fires in Lahaina or hurricane whenever took out their clubhouse, and that they're using temporary facilities until they rebuild, but then you notice how "permanent" the facilities appear to be and realize this IS their normal state of operations. Couse was OK, layout is better than the upkeep and conditions (cup edge conditions suggested multiple days with the same pin positions). Then as twilight golfers, we were instructed to have the carts in almost 20 minutes before sunset, which I didn't appreciate given that could be two more holes played if we're moving along. Then about the 7th holes, a course worker comes up to us while were holing out, and tells us that we now have to stop playing another 15 minutes before the first deadline (which I would have ignored, except my playing partner was done when we got to the second instructed return time. But they definitely treated us as an obstacle to remove so they could continue with whatever they were doing after they left. Avoid this course unless you just can't afford anywhere else in Maui County. And if you found this course because some ratings said it was in the top 25 of Hawaiian courses, STOP using that source!

Fivesome

They let a fivesome go in front of us at 11:27 am. A fivesome of slow lousy players. Not fun when it’s hot out.
