Kauai Lagoons Golf Club on the majestic Garden Island of
Kauai is home to two award winning Jack Nicklaus designed golf
courses. The dramatic Kiele Course(key-ay-lay) weaves along
imposing ocean cliffs, lush valleys, and among 40 acres of
fresh water lagoons. Its companion, the Mokihana Course
(mow-key-ha-nah) is a Scottish style links course that
features open fairways and well-guarded, small undulating
greens. The resort's courses, practice facilities, first class
accommodations, food and beverage facilities, and Golf Pro
Shop, add up to a golf resort experience that's second to
none!

| Francis H. I'i Brown Golf Course on the Big Island, a
green gem surrounded by black lava |
 |
The Francis H. I'i Brown North and South courses are
remarkable if for nothing more than the vast fields of dark
black lava out of which they were constructed. The original 18
holes were opened in 1981, with Homer Flint and Raymond Cain
as the lead architects. It was a visually spectacular course
that featured one par-3 hole crossing a wide Pacific inlet,
another par-3 playing into a coliseum of lava, and many holes
whose primary challenge was to hit the bright green fairways
and greens, avoiding the lava formations in the landing areas
and on both sides of the fairways. The course received rave
reviews from the moment it opened. In 1991, Mauna Lani felt it
necessary to add another 18 holes, so they called in the
Honolulu architectural firm of Nelson/Wright/Haworth. With the
land configuration available to them, Robin Nelson and Rodney
Wright elected to split the existing course into two nines and
add nine new holes to each side. The results were remarkable,
with the signature par-3s having been split between the
courses, and several new holes on each course playing down to
or in front of the Pacific
