Old Blue Course at Wailea Golf Club
Kihei, Hawaii 96753
Maui County
Web: www.waileagolf.com
The oldest of the three Wailea Golf Club courses, Old Blue is a traditional Maui resort course designed by Arthur Jack Snyder just a sniff off the coastline and beneath Mt. Haleakala.
The flagship of the three golf courses at Wailea Golf Club on Maui, Old Blue is a classic Arthur Jack Snyder design built in 1972. The golf course rolls along the foothills of 10,000-foot-high Mt. Haleakala, a dormant volcano that dominates the skyline. This scenic Hawaiian resort-style course features both Pacific Ocean and volcano views and plays 6,765 yards from the championship tees, though each hole has three tee boxes for players of every skill level. The Old Blue course is close enough to the water that, from certain points like the 12th tee boxes, whales can be spotted.

- For as long as I can remember I've driven past the Old Blue when we've been coming or going through Wailea. On my most recent trip over to Hawaii I finally gave in and tried it out. (Reason being I rented clubs from Maui Golf Shop, where it was rent one day get one free, and they had a great deal on tee times at Wailea, so that sold me on playing it on my second day)
The course itself is a gorgeous resort course, very generous fairways, spectacular views, really everything you could want when you're golfing in paradise.
The only reason I didn't give it a full 5 stars was the fact that the pace of play was brutally slow. There were several foreign 5-somes ahead of us that had no concept of playing anywhere near fast, or normal for that matter. Had they not clogged up the works it would have been 5 stars all the way.
The only negative is there is no driving range.
