Maui Nui Golf Club
Maui Nui Golf Club presents a welcoming 18-hole public course in Kihei, Hawaii, combining approachable fairways with challenging greens shaped by coastal winds. Its tropical setting, affordable rates, and modern amenities create a balanced experience for players of every skill level.
Course Overview
Located in the heart of Kihei, Maui Nui Golf Club offers an 18-hole public layout that balances accessibility with a genuine challenge, set against the island’s warm, tropical backdrop. This course invites golfers of all levels to engage with its inviting fairways and approachable design while testing precision and strategy through subtly contoured greens and thoughtfully placed bunkers. The layout unfolds across gentle terrain, with ocean breezes adding a dynamic element that encourages players to adjust their club selection and tempo throughout the round.
Maui Nui Golf Club stands out for its striking blend of playability and scenery. Though not perched atop dramatic cliffs or carved directly along the shoreline, the course embraces the Maui spirit through open, airy holes bordered by occasional groves of palm trees and native foliage that provide shade and character. The fairways are generous but demand shot shaping when the trade winds intensify, especially in the midday hours, making wind management a critical skill for scoring well.
Golfers will find the greens firm and receptive, with minor undulations that reward thoughtful approach shots and precise putting. Bunkers scattered across the course hold a soft, black sand that differs from traditional offerings and requires a slightly adjusted technique, evident to players who find themselves frequently challenged in these sandy traps.
Off the course, Maui Nui Golf Club is celebrated for its welcoming staff and modern amenities, including a fully equipped practice range where players can warm up or refine their stroke with advanced training aids. The pro shop offers rental clubs, and guests often appreciate the affordable rate structure that makes Maui Nui a standout value compared to other island courses. A beverage cart circulates regularly, providing refreshment amid the tropical sun and steady coastal breeze.
With convenient access just off Lipoa Parkway and a relaxed island atmosphere, Maui Nui Golf Club is an inviting destination that delivers a memorable round for those seeking enjoyment without sacrificing the integrity of their game. Whether playing a casual weekend round or sharpening skills in a more competitive setting, this course offers a rewarding experience embedded in the gentle rhythms of Maui itself.
Course Highlights

Our group of 3 from Minnesota was joined by a gentleman from Washington. The 4 of us had a great time. Never had to wait on another group, rarely saw anyone behind us, and the beverage cart was always there when we needed it. The greens were in good shape and the fairways were beautiful. The price was the most reasonable as well for Maui. We also received 6 free balls with our club rentals.

Great test of golf but playable from all blocks. Economically you can’t beat this course anywhere in Maui. Great friendly staff from the pro shop and on the course. You’ll love playing here.

Overall nice experience, first time playing from California. Friendly and helpful staff, greens and fairways were in good condition. Bunkers had a thinnish layer of black sand, which I could not figure out. (Not sure if it was bad technique. I found 3 bunkers, took 1 shot to get out of each but my club seemed to bottom out early and glide, and every shot was a screamer out of the trap). It was windy out on the range but I did not notice the effect out on the course as much.

Poor shape course, loud and distracting construction on hole 13,14,15,16. Horrible bunkers. Extremely unpredictable slow greens. Really bad staff. You could say you get what you pay for still overpriced in my opinion.

Great place to golf at a very reasonable price. We are glade that they accept youth on course, and have several programs that offer adult golf at affordable prices.

June 30 2025 I understand that the course has a new superintendent. He or she has done a great job improving the course. It's in a better condition now. It's great for the price on Maui. The staffs are friendly and kind. The range has been remodeled a few years back with solar panels canopy. Also, each bay has a launch monotor! The greens are in great conditions but kind of slow but you can get used to it. A little tip for putting on these green, if you've never played here before; they usually break more than you think if you've not used to Bermuda (i think). Mahalo Maui Nui.🤙

Great course and very fun. Staff was helpful and attentive. Happy hour beers were $4 Military discount was $50 per person vs $300 at emerald, gold and blue courses right down the road. Range was fun and had similar range finders you’d play with at top golf. 100% worth it to golf here
