FOUR SEASONS RESORT LANA'I MANELE BAY

The Challenge at Manele is a Jack Nicklaus signature design, and sits high on the cliffs above the tumultuous surf of the Hulopo'e Bay. Built on the craggy outcrops of the Lana'i lava rock formations, there are few more amazing places to play golf. Nicklaus has merely placed his course gently on the terrain, using its inherent character as the foundation for the incredible layout, which is 7,039 yards from the tips. There are however, five separate sets of tees, ensuring that The Challenge is available to all.

The Experience at Koele is starkly different in character to its neighbour, featuring stunning mountains views, lush greens, forests and lakes. While it may not have the amazing cliff-top holes of the Nicklaus course, the Experience does afford amazing views across the ocean channel to the islands of Maui and Moloka'i. Ravines, cascading waterfalls, and monumental changes in elevation help to make the 7,014 yard Greg Norman-designed Experience at Koele a world class golf experience.

Look out for the resort's signature hole - the 17^th on Greg Norman's Experience - where the fairway is laid out some 250 feet below the elevated tee.
