Maui beaches! Photo submitted by u000005546095 on 02/17/2013
Fun round
Good course. Lots of long holes and challenging shots. Would play again.
Good...not great
Rude staff at the driving range...redheaded male attendant needs basic training in customer service and communication.
Mahalo for playing Ka'anapali and for providing us a great review!
Punched greens
Great layout great course great conditions except the greens had been punched. No mention of this and no discount for these conditions.
That’s not right!!!
A warning would be nice
Punched greens and extreme wind conditions made the round much less enjoyable than it could have been. Wind is a given in Maui but the greens were the unexpected surprise that made it a bad round. A warning about the greens would have been nice, especially at the rate they charge for a middle of the mill course.
Challenging course in the wind
Course was in reasonable shape. Some of the greens had numerous either grassless or "crabgrass" rough spots that made putting a challenge. Bunkers were well maintained.
One of the best I’ve ever played!
I came here from California for 10 days and first golfed 18 on the bay course which set my standards for Maui! This course was absolutely beautiful, I played the Royal instead of Kai and everything was in tip top shape! Fairways clean and full, rough wasn’t to hard to get out of (nicely cut for beginner-moderate players) and the greens were better then the Bay course...firm, full difficult being the nicest course when my municipal courses in California have slower greens but OVERALL ABSOLUTELY WORTH EVEY PENNY!
Mahalo Sargent Mason for playing Ka'anapali! We appreciate that you played and enjoyed the experience! Hope to see you again soon!.
Aloha!
Good times and worth the money
Not the most expensive course in the area, but it was in top notch condition, so the value is amazing! Can't escape the wind on Hawaii, so hopefully you know how to play the wind. Pace of play was great (4 hours), and we took our time as a twosome behind a foursome. Could have easily been faster if we cared. We didn't. Awesome course and I will be back. Owe a little revenge at 2 holes...
Mahalo for playing with us and for providing a great review! We hope to see you again soon. A hui hou (until we meet again)...
Rude staff
One of the course pro’s was extremely rude, the only people that were nice were the cashier (go figure) and the cart girl. Everyone else acted as if we were lucky they allowed us to play there! They need to check out Kapalua and see how to run a course and how to treat customers who pay a great deal of money to play
Aloha Charlie, mahalo for your feedback. We would love to discuss your experience further with you if you are able to please send us an email at info@kaanapaligolfcourses.com, we would be happy to discuss. Mahalo!
Mahalo for the great review, thank you for playing Ka'anapali!
First and last
Usually when you pay $120 for a round of golf you’d expect luxury and class. Didn’t get that. Being a resort course it was a pain watching the three guys with rentals trying to make 6” putts, they finally let my twosome pass when I nailed a 330 yard (with the wind and way downhill), they had no clue.
Once we
Passed them it was clear sailing. But ... the course needs some maintenance. Again, nice short course but there are a lot better for half the price. Done, know better now.
Slow play
Slow play with no marshal. Cart broke down but they did replace after walking 2 holes.
Disappointing
If I had to choose one word to describe this experience, it would be disappointing. From a poor warm up area to greens that had been freshly sanded (they never let us know) to slow play to a layout that wasn’t anything creative, this is a course that is barely worth half of its exorbitant cost. Add that to our cart dying in the fairway of the 10th hole and it taking 5 phone calls (and two holes of walking) to get someone to come help. All in all, disappointing.
Aloha Taylor, mahalo for your feedback. We would love to discuss your experience further with you if you are able to please send us an email at info@kaanapaligolfcourses.com, we would be happy to have one of our managers discuss with you directly. Mahalo!
Good course. Extremely slow play.
Good layout. Tough. Pace of play way too slow. 5 hours through 16 holes. Unmarshalled. Should be better for the 150 plus green fee.
Ka’anapali Kai
During range has MATS!
Greens had been top dressed we were not told of this before the round.
Quite unspectacular course considering the venue.
Aloha and thank you so much for playing!
Mahalo for playing Ka'anapali and for the great review!
