We played for under $100 each. We had previously played the now defunct South course. The North course is more challenging with a lot of elevation change. The tee boxes aren't in great shape. The greens were good and rolled nice. A real good deal compared to some other courses. Friemdly staff hlped us enjoy the day. More

We played yesterday, and another time about 5 days previous. We were guests at Makena Beach & Golf Resort, but had played the course a number of times previously, over the years... and we keep going back. It is clear that new ownership is "trying harder", with staff being very friendly, and with good attention paid to many small details,... More

I have played all the south Maui courses and this has the nicest layout, with wonderful views, great cart with the best gps I have seen, and good food in the resteruant . The course is lush, but could be greener if it was watered more. Not bad, just not up to the standard of the plantation, but likely much... More

Stayed at Makena Beach/golf resort and played this course with my wife. Excellent staff, awesome views of Molokini and 2 other islands, plus breaching whales off the coast. Course and greens were in excellent shape and resort guests got rental clubs included with no xtra charge. One of our best golfing memories ever. Hope we can return someday. More

My husband and I played at Makena while we were in Maui. What a beautiful course! We couldn't believe the views. It was lucky we got to play as a twosome since I had to take pictures of almost every hole. Lucky that the pair behind us never caught up either. We hadn't bothered to bring our clubs this trip...

Makena Golf Course is a great course to spend your afternoon. The ocean views are awesome. The course is in good condition, greens a little hard to read, but fun day nonetheless. The staff are really fantastic, best on the island. More
