The Ritz-Carlton Kapalua

A bucket-list destination for any golfer, the two 18-hole championship courses at Kapalua are as challenging as they are beautiful. The iconic Plantation Course, often ranked among Hawaii’s finest, is a thrilling challenge wrapped in jaw-dropping beauty. Wide, undulating fairways roll toward sweeping ocean vistas, turning every swing into a cinematic moment. Nearby, the Bay Course carves a gentler yet equally captivating path along the coastline, earning its place in the hearts of those who appreciate a course with charm and coastal drama. But the experience doesn’t end on the green. Take time to replenish and unwind with a dip in the resort’s cascading pools or embrace total restoration at the luxurious spa, where ancient Hawaiian healing traditions come to life through locally inspired treatments and tranquil garden sanctuaries. From custom massages to open-air relaxation areas and a cutting-edge fitness center, your wellness is as well cared for as your game.
