The course was designed by Bill Newis and opened in 1987. The 18-hole course has a course rating of 72 and a slope rating of 124 on Bermuda grass.
The Maui Nui Golf Course features narrow fairways and scenic ocean views, and the course is usually more enjoyable to play during the mornings when the wind is not blowing as hard. From December to March one can watch the whales jump around offshore while one plays.

Watch out for # 2, a 567-yard par-5 challenge, and the #1 handicap hole on the course. The easiest hole is # 14, a 174 yard par-3.

$50 Fridays is a great value-much better layout & condition than Pukalani-almost as nice as maui lani or kahili

Played with wife in an early afternoon. Very open and forgiving course. Especially enjoyed the GPS carts, and the ability to order food before making the turn to #10.

Not very friendly staff. My playing partner saw some local players pay the starter to cut in front of our group. We had delays in play because of this. The pro stop lady was business only, not friendly but did offer a splash of sunscreen. The course has changed ownership and is now called Maui Nui.
