Mauna Kea and Hapuna golf courses, two of the top rated golf courses on the Big Island, invite kamaaina to play golf at a reduced rate through the month of May in celebration of Kamaaina Appreciation Month at Mauna Kea Resort.

Kamaaina with a Hawaii Drivers License or Hawaii State ID will have the opportunity to play the iconic Mauna Kea Golf Course for $125 or the Arnold Palmer/Ed Seay-designed Hapuna Golf Course for $35 during the month of May.

For tee times, call Mauna Kea Golf Course at 808-882-5400 or Hapuna Golf Course at 808-880-3000.

“Our kamaaina has been very supportive of our two properties (Mauna Kea and Hapuna Golf Course) and this is our way of showing them our appreciation for their business,” said Johnny Eusebio, PGA Head Professional at Mauna Kea Resort. “By offering them discounted rates during the month of May, our kamaaina can enjoy two of the premiere golf courses on the Kohala Coast at an unbelievable price.”

Since 1964, the golf course at Mauna Kea has led the way in standards of course beauty and design, solidifying its place in Hawaii’s history as one of the most scenic and favored golf courses.

Avid golfers and guests of the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel continue to enjoy Robert Trent Jones, Sr.’s award-winning golf course at our hotel and its recent updates and beautification by Rees Jones.

In 1997, the U.S. Golf Association named Hapuna “The Course of the Future.”

This Arnold Palmer/Ed Seay-designed 18-hole championship course is nestled into the dramatic natural contours of the land from the shoreline to about 700 feet above sea level. This course features spectacular views of the Kohala Coast and the Pacific, with snow-capped Mauna Kea volcano as a backdrop.

Hapuna’s challenging play and environmental sensitivity make it one of Hawaii’s most unique golf courses.
