Ka'anapali Golf Resorts (Maui)

The guy at check-in told us that the Royal had been punched, which we appreciated, so we played the Kia which is up in the foothills not along ocean. Course was in fair shape. Green on few holes terrible.

The course was in great shape with nice greens. The views are spectacular from a lot of the holes. Great value for the area.

Kaanapali Kai is a very solid track, with enjoyable holes throughout. It’s pretty open, so there are not a lot of penalties for errant drives. Tee boxes and fairways are in good shape, but some of the greens have bald areas. Sand traps are very well-maintained and fair. All in all, I’d call it a solid 4 star course that is slightly overpriced, but considering location, it’s worth your time.

Friendly staff, nice layout for a 20 HC; some of the island courses are too difficult unless you’re a scratch golfer. The condition I rated 4 because of areas of burned, or no grass in some of the fairways, but the greens were ok. Very nice views from the holes on the upper elevations.

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

Clubhouse staff ,range staff and starter were friendly and awesome but cart attendant acted like this was the last place in the world he wanted to be

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

You have to catch the Kai on a slow biz day, it’s a known course for tourists that haven’t played golf before and are looking for an activity.

It’s a nice course to play when you can play at a normal pace.

No beer sales offered, I haven’t figured this out yet. You buy beer at the restaurant next door and they have you buy some mandatory chips. Even Utah has evolved on beer policies past this.

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.

The views are spectacular the courses of challenge. The people that worked there are very friendly and very helpful. I’d play here again.

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.

The golf course sucks. It’s short, the greens were extremely slow and grainy. Extremely overpriced for conditions. Course offers zero alcohol, the course has one bathroom. The tee boxes are not flat. Brown dead spots all over. Save ur cash

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!
