Reviews
Greens just punched
Excellent course and layout. Staff was great and warned me about the greens just being punched. They gave us from free range balls and bottled water.
The course was in great shape except for the greens.
I play it every time I come to the Marriott across the street and will continue. Highly recommended but will just take a two putt or better if we come a week after the greens are punched.
Kai was great
I really enjoyed Kai, a little tighter than the Royal but the greens and traps were in better shape. I played Royal the day before. No complaints but then I played better on the Kai
Maui golf
Fun course, layout very plain some interesting holes but was a nice simple course in great shape
Aloha and thank you so much for taking the time to write to us. I wanted to let you know we pride ourselves on our excellent customer service and that I’ll be reaching out to you personally in the next 24 hours to get more details from you. We want to learn more about the situation and how we can make things right. Mahalo.

Kai
Had the best day,played with Mike from motown ca.
Maui golf
Course in great condition greens a little slow had a lot of subtle breaks, as with most courses in Maui totally over priced but all in all a joy to play on vacation.
Very nice course
Since Kapalua had just areated their greens and the Royal course at Kaanapali was in the middle of being aerated we played here. The course was in very good condition, the greens were good, and the views were fantastic. The staff was very very nice and overall we had a great day!!!
Kaanapali Kai
Course was in great shape. Lucky it wasn’t busy despite Royal being closed for aeration.

Great spot for west Maui golf.
The Kaanapali courses are consistently well maintained and offer great ocean views. I play here for at least one of my rounds every time I visit the island.

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 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.

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
