Maui Nui Golf Club

Amazing golf course… It was challenging and fair, we had a blast and will play this course every time we vacation in Hawaii. The staff were so friendly and they really took care of us. Some of the locals we met there say the weather is much better at this location than any other part of the island.

I spend 6 months every year on island and have been doing so since 2011, this course is my favorite by far. The staff is wonderful and very helpful from the girls checking you in, the cart barn people, and the pros. Leif has done a great job overseeing all aspects of management.
I recently started taking brush up lessons and am quite happy with that portion also.
Me personally, I love the course layout, both front and back. If you’re looking for a great place to play, look no farther.

We teed off around 12… it was fairly windy… the wind really kicked up and was really bad at the turn… asked if we could play the back a different day… nope…we battled through it and had a good time nonetheless. Course was «ok» with several blind shots. There was hardly any sand in the bunkers… we were also behind a 5some which didn’t help. Just disappointed in the clubhouse staff for not helping us out with the weather. Now that I know I’ll definitely check out the weather forecast before playing. I play about 80 rounds a year and the overall experience was disappointing.

Staff is Awesome and course is reasonably priced! Golf course is fun and picturesque! Awesome views!

Great greens, amazing view, fun course and friendly staff. I will definitely be back. The driving range has lights too so when I get off work late I can still get some swings in.

awesome place, we had a great time! Kendall in the pro shop was most helpful. cant beat the prices, and that view. in fact, the 2^nd time we visited Maui, my wife and i started most of our days there hitting a couple balls before breakfast. definitely visiting them again Mahalo

This is by far my favorite course on the island! I continually come back, & recently started a membership. They have great prices & an awesome course.

Place is great. You get what you pay for. Friendly staff. Course plays well. Don’t listen to the donkey wanna be local Northwest tourists.

Totally agree with some of the other comments on here. The golf is fine I think the rates are okay, but the staff and the customer service and the etiquette both in person and on the phone is horrible. One of the worst is David, who we’ve all had to deal with the timer to and it’s never pleasant so beware of that. I’m thinking he has something to do with the owners or ownership because why on earth would they be keeping a person like that they’re the treats customers so terribly is beyond me.

Could not have been more happy with this experience! Not sure why the negative reviews. These guys couldn’t have done more to make me feel welcome, take care of me, etc.
Paid $ 35 for afternoon golf, including cart, $ 25 for rentals. Gave me like new TM clubs, sleeve of balls, tees and got me right on. Not too many other people playing.
Course was in good condition. A little short, not a huge challenge. Pace of play was very good. Again, just a great experience. Will definitely play again when I return.

Excellent golf course. Great service, reasonable green fees, beautiful scenery, and friendly golfers. Will play here again when I visit Maui in the future.

My husband and I golfed early January 2015. We found the staff very friendly and helpful checking in. The Pro shop assistant gave us good information on course conditions and was very friendly. The Fairways were in Great shape as well as the greens. All in All I give Maui Nui a thumbs up for good service, great course conditions and an affordable game of golf.

Overbooked, overpriced, rude staff. Pro shop assistant was so rude, we canceled our tee time and struggled to get our money back. Plenty of good courses in the area, don’t waste your money.

Most of the greens are being worked on right now. The course itself is nice with views that are nice for a Midwesterner but decent at best when compared to other courses on Maui. I would say if you’re going to go, do it in a few months when all the greens are fixed. In the meantime, try Kahili, a better value in my opinion

My first golf in Hawaii ever. I just walked in with no expectations. They were able to get me on and pair me up with another dude golfing. His pregnant wife drove him around. The course was in okay shape, nothing to really talk about. Some of the greens and fairways were a bit dry or damaged.
$ 79 to golf. $ 25 for club rental. Clubs were shite. Missing several clubs and what do I do with a four wood?
The hospitality part of checking in was nice. But I wouldn’t go our of my way to recommend.
Maui Nui is the new name of this course. It was close to where I was staying.
I popped my head into the bar, it looked average. Bar seating looked very cramped, while the whole dining room was wide open.
The men’s restroom was being repaired, but the ladies was open and there was a port-​a-​potty outside. I noticed a guy exit the ladies room. So, I guess the one working restroom is open to all sexes.

Great for beginners and tourists. Great value. Very affordable. Nice little course with a few challenging holes. Easy to make a tee time. Highly recommend.

One of the best golf values on Maui.
Its not a difficult course, but that doesn’t mean its boring. Great views, fairways in great shape, and the greens were extremely well kept. Good course for the average golfer.
Service was outstanding. Jr in the cart barn was especially great.
For the price, service, and course condition… its hard to get better than Elleair. Highly recommended for a leisurely round of golf.

This is a great place for the average golfer like us. Probably not the most challenging course on the island, but for the rate is is a blast to, enjoy a cool round of golf.
Our Tee-​time was booked online at a special rate and we had a very pleasant tour. There was nobody either in front or behind us so we didn’t had to rush and could take it easy. The staff is very kind and helps you in every way.
The only thing we can complain was the rental-​clubs we got. They were not the newest but for our skills this was no problem at all (I have to mention we are both lefties).
We had so much fun in this relaxing way of playing ans will be back for sure.
After the round, we joined the nerby restaurant and a lovey time while having a beer and cocktail.

I travel, at least, every month to Maui from Oahu because of family. Co-​workers say I practically live on Maui. So, I come at this review from a slightly skewed perspective.
For VALUE (and I’m talking relative to Maui not the best VALUE I’ve ever experienced cause I’ve golfed in Thailand and Philippines and those places are DIFFICULT to beat), I believe Elleair to be a great course for value.
The FAIRWAYS are typically maintained much better than the municipals or military courses a person will experience on Oahu. One good days, I would say the course fairways will rival Ko’Olina Golf Course.
The GREENS are nice. I have played them once after they were aerated just because I was trying to get a round in. But, normally, the greens are nice and (to me) true. There aren’t a lot of undulations on their greens… not saying all the greens are completely flat. But, nothing «Mickey Mouse» about how the greens are constructed.
The ATMOSPHERE there is great! Normally, I’m playing as a single and I typically get partnered with a Maui Visitor. I enjoy playing with folks who are visiting Maui to have some fun and are able to get in a round of golf or two. Most of the time I get partnered with Canadians; they are a hoot to play with… lots of fun! I’ve never had a problem with the guys in the pro shop and cart barn. Lucky I guess! And, I realize everyone’s customer service experience will be different but MY EXPERIENCE there has always been positive.
Finally, KONO’S on the GREEN, their restaurant, is very good. They have a deal there that your second beer is the cost of your verified round. The last time I played I scorched the course for a 78 (only my third 78 but, drats, I can’t get over the 78 hump) so it was nice to score a second frosty beverage for only 78 cents! And, the food is just as good. I normally have a burger or sandwich and it’s always tasty. I understand they are doing more in the restaurant in the evenings but I’ve yet to experience it. Hopefully next month I can rectify!
Other courses I enjoy playing on Maui for «VALUE» are Dunes are Maui Lani (links style course) and Kahili (but wind is a huge factor there… recommend staying away if you don’t know how to hit a good knock down shot).

A fine resort course ruined by rude staff. Most are ok, especially the younger staff, but the head «pro», a middle aged Asian man is the worst. He has forgotten that he is in a service business, at a resort, no less. People coming here to golf are looking for a nice, relaxed time, not to face an angry old man with a hair trigger, looking for an argument at every turn. No hello, good morning, just a stare. And I’m Asian…
Fairways were in great shape, but the greens not so much. One was severely scarred by deep tire tracks in the middle of the green, like someone started a race car on it and kept going. Others badly patched.
