This award-winning resort was named to "GOLF Magazine's" 1998 list of "Gold Medal Resorts." It features three outstanding eighteen hole courses and annually hosts the PGA Lincoln-Mercury Kapalua International Tournament. "GOLF Magazine" even selected it to their 1998 list of "Top 10 PGA Courses You Can Play." Hole #5 on the Bay Course, a 205-yard, par 3, is the signature hole. This course was designed alongside the shores of Oneloa Bay. "Golf Digest" rated it the 15th "Best In State" course in 1995-96, and 13th best in 1997-98. The Plantation Course is a links-style design and the longest of the three courses. This course was built on the natural contour of the land. "Golf Digest" rated this course as the 3rd "Best in State" course for 1995-96, and 4th in 1997-98. The same publication ranked it 63rd among the "Top 75 Upscale Courses" in 1996. In addition "GOLFWEEK" afforded it 52nd out of "America's 100 Best Modern Courses" for 1997, 79th for 1998 and 88th for 1999. "GOLF Magazine" selected it 26th on its 1998 list of "Top 100 Courses You Can Play In The U.S." The Village Course rises into the scenic West Maui Mountains. The front nine is short, and the back nine is longer and the most challenging. Furthermore, the Village Course is the most scenic course. Its ranking by "Golf Digest" in 1992 was 31st among the "Top 75 Resort Courses."

 Very challenging!, Oct 20, 2005 |

| Actually they have the name wrong here ... this is not part of Ka'anapali but part of the Kapalua Resort, along with the Bay and Village courses. Gorgeous setting ... the views truly distract from your game! The Mercedes Championships are held here in January ... remember the extra-hole battle between Tiger and Ernie Els? Tough course for a mediocre player like me but Kapalua is a wonderful place to vacation. |

 Plantation is Awesome!, Jul 02, 2004 |

| Just got back from Maui and was lucky enough to play this course. Tee off after 2pm for a huge break on the green fees, you can easily get all 18 in and finish with a spectacular sunset. The wind is a big factor here and several hazards/bunkers and OB areas make this a challenging experience for even the best golfers. But the most exciting part of this course has to be the views of Lanai and Molokai in the distance - simply Awesome! |
