Reviews
Beautiful Course
For the Kai course, there’s some amazing views once you cross over the road. Bad part is, once you cross that road you’re on your own with anything other than water. They forgot to inform us the beer cart person went home sick. Ensure with the starter, or at check in, that the beer cart is actually operating. We hadn’t seen anyone on the first nine and you WONT cross over to the clubhouse until 16, unlike any course I’ve played.
Good pace, no adult beverages
The Royal was not crowded on this day so pace of play was great, wind was down also.
Kaanapali course does not have a liquor license so the on course beverage cart does not have any beer for sale. They have you purchase it at a restaurant next door before teeing off. I have never heard of this especially from a high tier resort course
Aloha and thank you for taking the time to offer your feedback. We are thrilled about the 5 star review and happy to hear you had a positive experience here at Kaanapali golf courses. 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)!

I got a ttime thru golf now at reduced price, starter got me on early which was nice, course was in excellent shape, this was my first time playing in Hawaii!
Aloha and thanks for the great review. I will certainly let our associates know how much you enjoyed your round here at Kaanapali Golf Courses especially since it was your first ever round in Hawaii. We hope you join us again soon! Mahalo!
Kai course
If you can catch a deal it’s a fun course. Just cross
your fingers that some vacationers didn’t have anything to do so they decided to to try that golf sport thingy for the afternoon, from the tips
1st time played
Saved a significant amount of money by using the app and truly enjoyed my first time playing! Paired up with another App user of similar playing capabilities and enjoyed the social interaction and golfing experience! Signed up to play the alternate 18 tomorrow
Aloha Jeff and Mahalo for giving us your feedback. We will be sure to let our team know you enjoyed your experience with us and are returning tomorrow. Enjoy your round!
Beautiful
Very friendly staff. Visited with Larry who has been there since 1980! Course conditions really good, fantastic views of ocean and surroundings. Greens have some grain which affects putts, adding to the challenge and fun. Can't wait to return to Maui and play again.
Aloha and Mahalo for giving us your feedback. We will be sure to let Larry and the rest of our team know you enjoyed your experience with us. Yes, putting can be a challenge here but after playing a few rounds you'll easily get the hang of reading the grain. We hope to see you again soon!

Kaanapoli golf disappoints
The course offered 50% off a replay round. I called and confirmed that I could use that deal 8/9/24. I arrived and was told that it would not be honored. That’s terrible. I will not be supportive of this course to anyone I speak with in the future. I will be actively letting people know that they should avoid this course. That is not an honorable way to run the course. Be better!
Aloha,
Very sorry that it was not made clear in the offer locker that the 50% off on a replay round is valid for the "same day" only. That was our mistake and again, I sincerely apologize. Please contact me directly at kreul@kaanapaligolfcourse.com so we can rectify our mistake. Mahalo.

Cody’s thoughts
The course itself was absolutely beautiful and in great shape. The greens were extremely fast and the gras in the rough was deep and thick. I played an early round and they gave me one bottle of water. The beverage and snack cart service didn’t start until 11:00 and I was finished with my round before they started. I was definitely dehydrated when the round was over!
Aloha and thank you for taking the time to offer your feedback. We are thrilled to hear you you thought our course was beautiful and in great shape. We'll work on the beverage cart situation. A Hui Hou (until we meet again)!
Good value
This is a great course if the price is right. I personally would not pay the regular fees they charge, there are to many condo lined holes, I would spend my $200 at the Wailea courses
Aloha and thank you for taking the time to offer your feedback. We are thrilled to hear you think our course was "great". We hope to see you again soon. A Hui Hou (until we meet again)!

Great option in Maui
Awesome course. Played 3x in a week. Every time got better. Views amazing. Fair but challenging course. Great conditions even with one windy day.
Absolutely Beautiful
It was my first time playing golf on Maui and I had an amazing time. I was paired with 2 other visitors to the island. One gentleman had played there a few days prior. From the beginning, the staff was very friendly and helpful. The course was outstanding. We didn't have a pace of play problem. We teed off at 130pm and finished at 4PM.

Fun course, best bang for your buck near whaler.
The views aren't as good as the roya, royal has oceanfront views. But Kai's views are very impressive. Higher level view of the ocean. The course is a fun course, becareful if the winds are strong, meaning club up! Great staff!!!
Aloha Parker, we lease out our food and beverage operation and I know they are working hard on restoring their on-course license. Very sorry for the inconvenience and hope you try us again on your next visit. That particular situation should be resolved soon. Mahalo.
