The Dunes at Maui Lani
Inland links-style / dunes
The Dunes is the sneaky useful round. It will not impress the person who only wants infinity pools and logoed towels, which is partly why it works.

Good local golf coarse at a fair price. Nice fairways and greens. I would of gave it a 5 star but they need to move people along. 5 hr 20 min. Is just to long. The restaurant has great service and very good food. Will go and play and eat again.
