I know it's expensive, but other than Kapalua's Plantation Course, it is definitely the best, probably ranked just ahead of Kaanapali. Staff was great.

We have been here 4 times now. The first few times were absolutely excellent! This last trip was…read morenot worth the expense. The communication with Sensei before and during our trip was terrible and pretty much non-existent. We stay at Four Seasons resorts often and never have I had an issue with communication like Sensei. The massage tables had cheap sheets that were scratchy; not what I would expect for a $700 massage. The room temperature never got below 70. The miso cod at the restaurant was extremely fishy tasting and not fresh. Pretty disappointing for such a pricy place.

First time in Lana'i and I'm happy we decided to stay at Sensei between the two Four Seasons…read moreoptions as we needed some quiet mid-year R&R. We ended up staying in the Kaiholena Suite, and loved the balcony, bathrooms and living room with the games, very large screen TV, and comfy sitting areas for working and relaxing. I really liked the beautiful chess set which we made use of. The Sensei team was amazingly attentive, addressing all of our needs, and making us feel completely welcomed. Everyone from the front desk, masseuses, transportation, restaurant staff and everyone in between, we greatly appreciated their kindness and service. Special thanks to Elliott who assisted us with a minor thermostat issue in our room which was resolved without issue. Sensei by Nobu was a wonderful dinner with a relaxing ambiance and delicious entrees and desserts. We opted for a custom massage, snorkeling, and some hale time, well worth booking ahead of time, thanks to the wonderful Sensei experience team. Everything was seamless, from the transportation from Lana'i air to the resort, transportation to the snorkeling experience from the lobby, shuttle service to the other resort for dinner, to checking out and departing at the end of our stay. We loved the library and spent some time playing billiards and shuffle board. Some favorite things about Sensei vs the Four Seasons beach resort (based on my observations: -Slower pace overall -Mostly adults, no kids under 16 -Feels geared more towards relaxation and wellness experiences -Still have access to the beach resort via the shuttle that runs every hour -Feels more like a tropical hidden getaway Pros: Exceptional staff, gorgeous well kept garden and grounds, delicious restaurants and food options, beautiful suite, and seamless transportation. Cons: Having to leave.

I played both the Plantation and the Bay course in late October. I paid $265 for the Plantation…read morecourse, that was with the discount for staying at the Ritz. I was first off at 6:42am on Sunday and was paired with a member and 2 other guests. We played in under four hours. The course was in great shape the greens started out slow with the moisture on them but dried out on the back 9 and picked up speed. The course was well manicured which you would expect from a $300 course and had some awesome views of Molokai. I met my wife after at the Plantation House and had brunch which was also awesome. The next day I played the bay course, I got one of the hot times on their website for $169. Once again I was first off and played with another couple, we played in under 4 hours again. The range has what they called low flight balls, they were essentially plastic and didn't go more than 100 yards. The course was in great shape, the greens were a little bumpy. Holes 4 and 5 are right on the water and make it worth the price tag, but if I go back I would just play the Plantation course if I'm paying $200 plus a round. A heads up the shuttles from the Ritz Carlton and golf villas don't start till 7am, so if you have an early tee time you need a car there weren't any Uber's that early when I was there.

From the moment you step onto those perfectly manicured fairways, framed by palm trees swaying like they're applauding your arrival, you feel that glow only a great track can give. The routing is smart, the greens are true, and the course management is as refined as any top-tier resort layout. Customer service? Spot-on. Friendly, attentive, and they keep the greens rolling smoother than a brand-new Pro V1 off the putter face. What really sets The Dunes apart is how playable yet strategic it is one of the most forgiving climates in the world matched with a layout that rewards good decisions but won't break your spirit if your swing sneaks back into vacation mode. The vistas stretch out like a postage stamp sent straight from paradise, and every hole feels like its own little cinematic moment. And hey, any course where you can yank a drive into the next fairway and still call it "using the adjacent landing zone" is a win in my book. Five stars, easy.
