My second time playing this course. Lots of elevation and undulation. Beautiful and challenging.

I was very excited to play the South Course, having played the North Court a month earlier. While the course is very picturesque (see photo), there was a Club Members tournament or something when I played and it completely killed the vibe. I have never experienced such a slow pace of golf, unfortunately. It took 5.5 hours to finish only the 16th hole, after which I just left. There was no momentum or flow, and it made the game very unenjoyable. The Club should have either not had non-tournament golfers play at all, or should have buffered their tee-offs to start an hour after the last tournament group. Ended up being a waste of money for the round of golf that should have been fun. Would return another day when you can play a proper round, but yesterday really left a bad taste in my mouth.

Always a fun course to play. Holes #4 and #8 are really challenging, but signature to the course. Hole #3 is perpetually swampland, and is worth skipping altogether. Worth playing 9 at the GolfNow rate for sure.

This course wasn’t anything exceptional, or complex, or even very interesting. It’s mostly wide open fairways with almost no rough; sand traps barely came into play for me, and limited water features. But it was a golf course on the Island of Maui, which is ‘in and of itself’ a beautiful thing. Greens were like glass and very fast. Today was too windy, but you can’t blame the weather on the course. Staff were incredible friendly, inviting, and accommodating (seriously nice folks here!). Thanks Recommended as being of exceptional value for being able to say “I played golf of Maui.”
