Kaanapali Golf Courses

Kaanapali Golf Courses are located at the Kaanapali Resort in Lahaina, Maui, Hawaii. Onsite there is championship golfing along with a championship store that carries resort apparel and logo merchandise. The golf courses and shop have been around since 1962. There are two golf courses on site. They are Royal Kaanapali and Kaanapali Kai.

The Royal course opened in 1962 just like the shop. It was one of two courses in Hawaii designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. The design takes advantage of the rolling hills to create sloping fairways and large contoured greens. There is a challenge on every hole. The entire course is 6700 yards with a par 71. The course starts at sea level with a par 5 hole which is 550 yards.

The Kaanapali Kai Course is newer by a decade. It was designed in 1976 by Arthur Jack Snyder. It has 6400 yards and is a par 70 course. Like the other course this one uses the natural landscape for rolling fairways and greens. All skill levels will find the course challenging and fun. The land was once a sugar cane plantation, which is why the Sugar Cane Train comes through the course.
