If you are looking for luxury golf and lodging in the quiet, unspoiled Hawaii of years gone by, this is a MUST DO! Lanai is home to just two resorts - each with its own championship course. And, they are sister properties so guests at either have full privileges at both.

1The seaside Manele Bay Hotel with the fabulous Jack Nicklaus designed course, The Challenge at Manele, is an elegant expression of Hawaiian and Mediterranean architecture set high above a spectacular white sand beach. The Manele Bay Hotel provides you a fitness spa, tennis facilities, scuba and snorkeling, fresh water pool, tide pool, billiards and game room, and a variety of dining options in the hotel and the golf clubhouse.

Seven miles away and almost 2,000 feet above sea level is the high-country Lodge at Koele and its magnificent Greg Norman designed course, The Experience at Koele. The Lodge at Koele provides the ambiance of a traditional English country manor amidst majestic island pines. Lodge amenities include horseback riding along captivating mountain trails amidst the tall pines, hiking & biking trails, skeet shooting, a fitness center, tennis facilities, fresh water pool, library & game room, and four dining options in the hotel and the golf clubhouse.

The Challenge at Manele. Jack Nicklaus fashioned this colorful gift to the god of golf from several hundred acres of lava fields and outcroppings. Terraced on a hillside overlooking Hulopo'e Bay, and Hawaii's finest white sand beach, the course hugs the rugged coastline with dramatic over-the-ocean holes which will test your skill and courage. No other course in the world can claim expansive 180 degree vistas of the sea from EVERY hole on the course! The par 3 signature hole, Number 12, challenges you with a tee shot from a cliff 150 feet above the crashing surf, requiring a 200 yard carry across the ocean to the green. With 5 sets of tees, this course gives golfers of every skill level a chance.

The Experience at Koele.1
Greg Norman and Ted Robinson teamed up to design a golf experience that you'll remember for a lifetime! The Experience at Koele gives you a completely different look between the 9's. The front nine is a true mountain track while the back rolls through wooded ravines and gentle hills of what used to be a pineapple field. Ted Robinson's trademark is water! And this course typifies that with flowing streams, cascading waterfalls, and seven lakes. The signature hole, Number 8, presents you with a 250 foot drop from tee to fairway. The Challenge and The Experience is defined by your contention with the tricky Trade Winds which blow across the wooded ravine which your tee shot must traverse.

Both of these courses have won numerous awards since opening in 1992. And, these resorts, with all the varied activity choices, are perfect for non-golfing travel companions.

If you are looking for the ultimate vacation experience, this is it.
