Greens pretty beat up.

Lots of either disease, golfer abuse (failure to repair pitch marks)or just winter lack of growth has resulted bare spots. Course has #17 under reconstruction so added a par 3 at #2. Great value for Hawaii and overall a B+ experience.

Disappointing - many greens, tees and fairways NOT in good condition

Though one of the least expensive courses on Maui, this was very disappointing. Many, many problems on the greens - bare ground (no grass), shaggy, bumpy. Some tees also bare ground, some fairways also in very bad shape.
Some nice vistas, both toward the ocean and toward the mountains. Friendly staff.

Course conditions were NOT good. I don't feel it's a good use of $100 (I was visiting from Minnesota) Disappointing as I really wanted to like this course.

Course has great views

First time player of this course and we had a great time exploring the fairways etc…

Staff were friendly etc and rented clubs were good ..

Course has definitely taking a hit from Mother Nature last week with those torrential rains , but I’m sure in time those scars will disappear ..

I do hope the course management targets the greens quality moving forward , to help the appeal of the course…

We still enjoyed our round and plan on going back…

Great value

Whenever we are in Maui we play this course. Its value and wide fairways allow for an enjoyable round for golfers of all skills. The greens were a little tough this time but otherwise in very good shape. Highly recommend.

First time playing this course

Great layout. Course runs a smidge narrow in some areas which makes it’s a little challenging. Back 9 is more forgiving. Great time. Staff is friendly. Good for beginners and up.

Underwheming

They were very honest about the 17th green and hole being closed. I understand there were some condition challenges with recent storms however the greens were awful, and the damage to the course was understated and the price was not something I would have paid to play had I known the true condition of this course.

The course staff in the pro shop was cold and we had to ask for help, it was more what I would have expected from a city or municipal course than a resort style course. The greens were long and slow and bumpy. The overall layout wasn’t a spectacular experience but there were a few holes that were pretty cool especially their 9th hole with the lake! It was gorgeous.

Overall, I wasn’t impressed with this course and the overall experience especially for the price we had to pay.

Brutal Conditions

This course needs a ton of work. Ground under repair and torn up on almost every hole. Almost every green is in rough shape, where there is grass on the course, large clumps and strings of clippings. Wet spots, mud, water. All I can say is brutal. This course is in such rough shape. Only positive of this course is brand new carts with range finder touchscreens and speakers. If you just want to get an AM round in quick, and don’t care if you’re playing a goat ranch, then this is the place for you.

First & Last time I’ll play here!

I finally played Maui Nui, after living on Maui for 2.5yr. It is in the worst shape of any golf course I’ve played in the past 5yr. Poor & neglected greens, terrible fairways with obstacles, holes, and ground under repair everywhere, and even half the Tee boxes are a disgrace. The worst problem is, it’s not really under reconstruction - only two greens have been replaced in the past several years, and they all need to be redone. I’d understand if they were charging twenty bucks a round, but it’s nearly triple that. Avoid playing here until Mgmt gets serious to improve things.
Maui Nui is an absolute goat track… embarrassing!

Mediocre for Hawaii

The lowest cost to play in Maui and you get what you pay for. the greens were in horrible shape. the driving range and the clubhouse setyou up for low expectations. Pace of play was fine and course layout was OK but the greens looked like a war zone.
Pay the extra money at Wailea it’s more than worth it
