THE GOLD COURSE
LEGENDARY BY DESIGN
A true course of champions, Wailea Golf has welcomed Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Gary Player, and many of the game's most celebrated legends. Designed by Robert Trent Jones II, the Gold Course rewards thoughtful play with memorable risk-and-reward opportunities, artfully placed bunkers, and dramatic elevation changes. Rugged lava rock, swaying palms, and sweeping ocean vistas create an unmistakable sense of place, where every hole is framed by the natural beauty of Maui. Challenging, inspiring, and undeniably rewarding, the Gold Course is the pinnacle of the Wailea Golf experience.

THE EMERALD COURSE
VIBRANT AND EFFORTLESSLY WELCOMING
Make no mistake, all three Wailea courses are breathtaking. Still, Emerald has a certain special elegance. From one tee to the next, flowers burst forth with color, the landscaping flourishes naturally. Beyond, the open fairways frame eternal vistas of ocean and volcanic crater. The first hole at Emerald is arguably the most beautiful in all the islands. This great beauty, designed by Robert Trent Jones II, has tees for every player and is consistently rated one of the best in the region.

THE BLUE COURSE
TIME HONORED
Wailea Blue is the true and original heart of the Wailea resort, unfolding along a path through the story of this community. The ocean is ever present, the fairways are vast; the greens are fast and sometimes tricky. Designed by Arthur Jack Snyder, Wailea Blue is the way to get to know this place – a time-honored rite of passage at Wailea Golf.

Nearly all 54 holes at Wailea’s three courses offer beautiful views of the ocean. This is because Wailea’s courses are located as high as 300 feet above sea level, a magnificent elevation from which to enjoy Maui’s gorgeous ocean vistas.
Wailea boasts some of the best golf weather in the world.
Average temperatures for the island of Maui range from 75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit, but it’s not unusual for temperatures to dip into the 60s or rise into the low 90s, depending upon the time of year. As a general rule, the Wailea area tends to be drier than the rest of the island, with an average annual rainfall of approximately 11 inches, lots of sun and generally mild winds. Please be sure to bring adequate sunscreen!
