Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Wailea Blue Course a good choice for all skill levels, or is it more for experienced golfers?

The Blue Course is incredibly forgiving, making it perfect for golfers of all abilities, especially if you're looking for a relaxed round. You'll find wider fairways and fewer forced carries than its Wailea siblings, which means less stress and more enjoyment of those stunning ocean views. It's excellent value for a resort course in Maui.

When is the best time of day to play the Wailea Blue Course for the best experience?

We highly recommend an early morning tee time on the Blue Course. Not only will you beat the heat and the crowds, but the views of the Pacific Ocean and the West Maui Mountains are absolutely breathtaking as the sun rises. You'll often have the course mostly to yourself for the first few holes, which is a real treat.

How does the Wailea Blue Course compare to the Gold and Emerald courses, and what makes it unique?

The Blue Course is often called "The Grand Lady of Wailea" and it truly lives up to that name with its classic resort feel. Unlike the more modern, championship-style Gold and Emerald, the Blue offers a more traditional, parkland-style layout with lush tropical landscaping and a slightly less demanding challenge. It's the most relaxed of the three, perfect for a vacation round.

What practical advice do you have for someone playing the Wailea Blue Course for the first time?

Definitely bring plenty of water and sunscreen - the Maui sun is no joke, even with the ocean breezes. We also suggest taking a moment on the 18th hole to soak in the panoramic views of Molokini and Kaho'olawe; it's a fantastic finish. Don't forget your camera, because you'll want to capture those postcard-perfect moments.

What should I expect regarding green fees and booking a tee time at Wailea Blue?

Green fees at Wailea Blue are generally more accessible than the Gold or Emerald, but still reflect its resort location. You'll typically find rates ranging from $200-$300, depending on the season and time of day. We strongly advise booking your tee time well in advance, especially if you're visiting during peak season, as it's a popular choice.
