Wailea
Gold Course
Jones flavored the Gold with elements of classic golf course design,
then finished it with a rugged, natural look. Throughout the course
are stark lava rock outcroppings, indigenous Hawaiian grasses, an
abundance of kiawe (a relative of mesquite), and remnants of papohaku,
prehistoric lava rock walls built by early Hawaiians and preserved
for their historic value.
The Gold's 200 foot elevation change from top to bottom enhances
the numerous ocean and mountain vistas available from virtually
every hole. The course has been labeled a "thinking player's"
course because it demands strategy and careful club selection to
be played well.
