The Dunes at Maui Lani
The Dunes at Maui Lani Golf Course is built on million-year old
sand dunes located in central Maui. Its 18 holes are unique to
anything in America because of the terrain upon which they are
set, and the design techniques which were deployed by the
course's architect. The 6,840-yard par 72 Dunes at Maui Lani
Golf Course is designed much like the courses built centuries
ago in the British Isles, as its holes take full advantage of
Maui�s natural, sloping island dune terrain. That�s why
creativity, finesse, strategy, and good shot-making are all part
of the Dunes experience. In addition to good golf, The Dunes has
the only lit range with grass tees in central Maui, and is home
to the newly opened Dunes Restaurant; all very conveniently
located in central Maui.

Ellair Golf Club
This course opened in 1987, and was originally known as
Silversword. The trade winds hit the course usually in the
mornings and late afternoons, and the course was designed with
this in mind as many of the holes bring the wind into play. Very
interesting layout and very well maintained! Lots of sand traps
with medium soft sand. A sand wedge with 12 or 14 degrees of
bounce is essential! Soft greens, cushy fairways, and fluffy
rough. Pay attention to the grain!

Royal Kaanapali North Course
The Royal Kaanapali North Course is one of only two golf courses
in all of Hawaii designed by Robert Trent Jones, Sr. The
legendary architect took full advantage of the region's scenic
natural beauty to create a course that is distinctive, demanding
and appealing. The North is typically Trent Jones Sr., with
large, contoured greens that place the emphasis on putting
skill. It also boasts one of the best finishing holes in the
state, the par-four 18th hole that Arnold Palmer, during the
Canada Cup, called one of the most challenging holes he'd
played.

Kaanapali Kai South Course
The Kaanapali Kai South Course offers sweeping views of the West
Maui coast, the neighbor islands of Molokai and Lanai, and in
the winter, humpback whales cavorting offshore, what golf could
offer more! Arthur Jack Snyder�s 18-hole course includes a par
71 and 6,250 yards that snuggles up to the sea. Not to mention
the whimsical Sugar Cane Train, whose steam locomotive, a
reminder of turn-of-the-century Hawaii, chugs past on its way to
the historic whaling town of Lahaina.

Formerly known as Sandalwood, The Kahili Golf Course is nestled
in the foothills of the scenic West Maui Mountains, the course
takes advantage of the local terrain and Hawaiian Trade Winds to
create a unique golf experience. The Kahili Golf Course is
conveniently located in Waikapu, a mere 10 minutes from Kahului
airport and 30 minutes from the Wailea and Ka'anapali Resort
Hotels. Uniquely positioned on the the slopes of the West Maui
Mountains, this world-class layout affords stunning views of

Kapalua Bay Course
There is no better place in the world to experience golf than at
Kapalua. Kapalua�s Bay Course features a spectacular hole � the
par-3 fifth � that is built with the tee on one side of a
Pacific inlet and the green on the other. Arnold Palmer and
Francis Duane designed The Bay Course. The forerunner of
Kapalua's three championship golf courses, The Bay Course is a
6,600-yard par 72 with gently rolling fairways and generous
greens. The Bay Course is an excellent example of resort golf at
its best.

Kapalua Plantation Course
The par 73, 7,263-yard Plantation Course, is the course of the
PGA TOUR Mercedes Championships each January featuring an elite
field of previous year's PGA TOUR winners. Play the course where
Ernie Ells shot 32 in 2003! A treat to play at least once in
your life. Boasting three world-class golf courses, the state's
largest staff of PGA professionals, some of Maui's most
spectacular views, a bevy of prestigious accolades, and a
state-of-the-art Golf Academy, Kapalua is considered by many as
the "golf mecca of the Pacific." The grand scale of the course
designed by Ben Crenshaw and Bill Coore unfurls across natural
geographic formations and pineapple plantation fields that take
your breath away.

Makena North Course
Opened in 1993, the Makena North Course goes out of its way to
make golfers feel at one with their natural surroundings. There
are no distractions on this course-unless you considered the
unobstructed views of the blue pacific, neighboring islands, and
humpback whales breaching during whale season to be a bit
distracting. Home of the Hawaii State Open; Makena is well known
not only for its layout, its excellent daily tournament playing
conditions, and helpful professional staff; but also for the
best golfing weather to be found anywhere in the world.

Makena South Course
The proximity to the ocean is exactly why the Makena South
Course is so special. Besides having two oceanfront holes,
numbers fifteen and sixteen, the South Course also affords an
excellent view of humpback whales that visit here each winter.
And since they keep coming back year after year, they must be on
to something good! The South Course boasts one of Hawaii�s top
driving holes, the par-5 number ten. According to members of the
PGA Aloha Section, number ten was selected as one of the top par
5�s in Hawaii.

Wailea Gold Course
The home course of The Senior Skins Game, the Wailea Gold Course
is the most challenging of Wailea's trio. Designed by Robert
Trent Jones, Jr., it has been ranked among the country's best
new courses by Golf Magazine and Golf Digest, and one of the
world's best designed by the readers of Conde Nast Traveler.
Jones flavored the Gold with elements of classic golf course
design, then finished it with a rugged, natural look. Throughout
the course are stark lava rock outcroppings, indigenous Hawaiian
grasses, an abundance of kiawe (a relative of mesquite), and
remnants of papohaku, prehistoric lava rock walls built by early
Hawaiians and preserved for their historic value. The Gold's 200
foot elevation change from top to bottom enhances the numerous
ocean and mountain vistas available from virtually every hole.
The course has been labeled a "thinking player's" course because
it demands strategy and careful club selection to be played
well.

Wailea Emerald Course
Rated one of the best new courses by Golf Magazine and Golf
Digest, as well as one of North America's most women-friendly by
Golf for Women, the Wailea Emerald is akin to a lush tropical
playground. Flowers bloom in great abundance: plumeria, bird of
paradise, allamanda, gazenia, bougainvillea. A true delight for
any golfer. Don't be fooled by the Emerald's pleasant
appearance. It is a superbly designed course created for pure
golf enjoyment, regardless of one's handicap. Measuring 6,825
yards from the back, the Emerald features four to six tee boxes
on every hole, allowing players to tailor the course to their
playing level. Notable features include a large double green
shared by holes #10 and #17. Fronting the green is the only lake
on the course. This is perhaps one of the Emerald's more
picturesque spots.

Wailea Old Blue
The first course ever built in Wailea, the stately Blue is a
gracious resort course that has been ranked among America's best
resort courses by Golf Digest. In its lifetime, it has hosted
such prestigious events as the LPGA Women's Kemper Open and
Japan's Asahi-Kyosen pro/celebrity golf tournament. The Blue's
fairways offer views of the ocean and Mt. Haleakala, and some of
Wailea's stunning residential communities. It features several
fountains and lakes, and an abundance of colorful hibiscus,
wiliwili trees, bougainvillea and plumeria. The Blue was
designed to appeal to a broad range of players. While it has
challenged some of the finest professional players in the world,
it also offers a measure of forgiveness in its wider fairways
and large greens. Like its sister courses, the worst hazards on
the blue are the visual ones: the sapphire Pacific Ocean (where
one can spot humpback whales during the winter months), several
offshore islands, a volcanic cinder cone known as Pu'u Olai and
majestic Mount Haleakala.

Maui
is home to several top beaches in the world and is known for the vast array of
choices of activities and attractions. Maui's beaches are legend. Pristine and
sheltered, especially on the leeward coasts, they have been lauded on top 10
lists for years. The beach fronting the Kapalua Bay Hotel is among the best. But
you can't dismiss the stretch of white sand at Kaanapali, or the beaches of
Kihei and the continuous coves at Wailea and Makena. Your Maui visit can be just
about anything you want it to be. If what you need is an escape by snorkeling in
warm, clear waters, or perhaps just surf, sand and golf. Maui has some of the
best. If a vacation without learning is no vacation at all, there are
specialized programs available for everyone from the history buff to the
outdoorsman.
