Nice Course
First time playing here. Staff were friendly. Rental clubs were a little old and dirty. Carts were comfy with GPS. Felt course was a little over priced as greens had obviously recently been aerated and sanded. Overall course in good condition and pace of play was great. 3 of us played in over 3 hours. Was a little strange when on no 6 a Marshall came up to us and said we could drive on fairway - which we had been doing. He then said the person behind had said we were holding them up - they had never had to wait for us !! We were also 30 mins ahead of schedule according to the GPS! We let them through when they eventually caught us at no 9
Overall a fun round and would play here again
Great views overall!
The course was in excellent conditions. Amazing layout with a few difficult holes but for the most extremely fair if the right shots were executed. Highly recommend!
Getting very expensive.
No beer, alcohol on cart. No 9th hole service. They keep claiming they are going to get drinks on the cart but it’s been years no service. If your paying resort rates you should get full service.
Except for punched greens
Pace of play is great. Fun course. Great staff. Only issue was aerated greens and knew this going in.
Royal Kaanapali
Great Service for sure. Made reservations about 8 weeks out plus rental clubs. Had us all confirmed and our T Time went as planned. Course is well maintained and challenging enough for all levels of play. We played our normal handicaps even with rented clubs. Course also had great views as you expect. All branded rental equipment was also in good shape with shaft flex options available upon check in. Coffee, water, towels, ice, Ts and bag tags provided. Best of great location to Lahaina Town. JTH
Not fancy but great to play!
Playing golf at Maui…. First word came out from mind was “expensive.” It was amazing experience to play here.
When I arrived at the course little bit disappointed by its club house “looking.” However, staff at the pro shop and the starter were so kind and most importantly the course condition and layout were amazingly good. My handicap is 4, I got enough challenges from the course and my wife a newbie for Golf, enjoyed the course also. I even pay way lessor than my local courses. It is located near by Kahului airport and on the way to the Haleakala Mt.
I will be back for my future trips.
3.5 hour round of Maui golf
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our round of golf. We had a 2 o’clock tee time and were done at 5:30. The course has some amazing views. There are some fairways with houses but for the most part fairways were pretty wide. The staff were super friendly. We rented clubs and definitely recommend this course.
Fun Course - Great View
Beautiful course with great views of the ocean and the islands of Lanai and Molokai! Course was in really good shape and we finished in 3 1/2 hours so we had time for lunch at Roy's!
Kaanapali Kai Golf
Golf in Hawai’i is always a treat. Being super-critical, however, the “Kai” course is not as nice as Wailea Emerald or Gold, but on a par with the Wailea Blue course. Kai is less expensive than any of the Wailea courses but I do feel that, as with all the Maui courses, the green fees are unreasonably expensive. The locals/residents pay far less which I understand to a point. But I do feel that they try to extract as much as they can from we tourists. The golf club rental fees are also unreasonably excessive as they know what it costs for us to bring our own clubs on the flights to and from Maui. Other than this, the Kai course is nice: generally good conditions, some challenging holes, nice layout , and some outstanding ocean views. If money is no object, then play the Wailea or Kapalua courses. Otherwise, either Kaanapali course is a good choice IMO.
