rated one of Golf Magazine’s “Top 10 New Courses” in America and ranked 4th
among Golf Digest’s “Best New Resort Courses in America” the year it opened.
The Palmer-Seay layout features two very distinct experiences. The front nine will
challenge you with a Scottish Links style layout, while the back nine has a more
tropical setting as it meanders through a tropical jungle and forest of ironwoods.
The course forms a horseshoe around the Punaho’olapa marsh, an unspoiled 100-
acre wetlands and bird sanctuary. The 17th, the signature hole offers panoramic
Pacific Ocean views from the green while the hole is dotted with nine bunkers,
which makes it as challenging as it is scenic

dinosaurs! The astounding scenery begins right away with a 1.5 mile drive through
a magnificent rainforest to get to the clubhouse. The Pete and Perry Dye designed
layout has contrasting nines, with a front side that features a rugged mountainous
terrain and an open rolling terrain back nine. With a slope of 138 from the back
tees and a distance of about 6600 yards, this demanding track is certainly an
