Listed below are the outstanding golf values HawaiiGolfDeals has put together for our GOLFHAWAIICARD holders for 2010. NOBODY BEATS US!
1. Do they tell you anything about themselves? We tell you everything about us.
2. Do they reveal any names of the principals in the management and ownership of the company? We do!
3. Do they list an actual business address and phone number? We list all our direct information and contacts.
4. If the pretenders offer you a price for golf, ask them for the price with fees and taxes included, then call the golf courses and ask them for discounts and specials and compare. The direct rates are usually better and you don't have to give your credit card information to strangers who fail to identify themselves. We've heard all the sad stories.
5. The pretenders are such brazen scam artists that they DO NOT tell you many of their lowest rates at certain times of the year are "aeration" rates. Our industry-leading unlimited golf rates are in place year-round and we'll tell when aerations are occurring at our participating courses.

BIG ISLAND NOTES:
BE SURE TO ASK ABOUT OUR NEW "SPA WITHOUT WALLS"
======================================
HawaiiGolfDeals is pleased to announce the return of our GOLFHAWAIICARD program on Maui with five terrific golf courses in our roster.
We are proud to feature the venerable Wailea Old Blue Golf Club, which is now a part of the HawaiiGolfDeals roster of great courses on which to strike the dimpled sphere. In fact, you'll want to play it several times on your Maui golf vacation. Old Blue sits in the bluffs just at the gateway to the Wailea Resort area and features a lovely compendium of holes and what may well be the best conditioned golf course in the state thanks to superintendent Steve Olsen and his staff.
Since 1991, avid golfers in the know have generally rated the Makena North Golf Course (now known as Makena Golf Club) as the Valley Isle's best layout with stunning views to match. GOLF Magazine (Dec. 2009) called it Maui's most underrated golf course. Erik Johnson and his Benchmark Hospitality crew are really putting a new and creative face on our old friend.
Now appearing in our Maui mix is The Dunes at Maui Lani Golf Course, a non-resort affiliated gem designed by Robin Nelson and managed by the affable Dave Gleason. With its central location, close proximity to the airport and exhilarating sand dunes, water features and elevation changes, The Dunes is a multiple-day can't miss that will call on every club in your arsenal.
Elleair Maui Golf Club is another of the generally unheralded Maui non-resort golf experiences. This course has had a renaissance of sorts due to development within the confines of their back nine, which resulted in exceptionally positive changes to the layout. Along with their new fleet of carts and the delightful personality of their exemplary head pro Eliot Gouveia, Elleair Maui really delivers.
Our Maui roster is rounded out by Pukalani Country Club, now under the astute management of Ron Huffman, a transplanted Texan who toiled at several Oahu courses. The 19-green Pukalani is a refreshing change of pace with the cooler temperatures of the upcountry conspiring with awesome views of west Maui and the isthmus from the downslope of Haleakula.
With your GOLFHAWAIICARD , you can play six days of unlimited golf (two days at Makena and one-day at each of the others) for as little as $480 (including tax). Even greater savings if you take advantage of our multiple-day scenarios.

BIG ISLAND NOTES:
- Due to an attempted privatization of Mauna Kea Golf Club, the availability of tee times and consumer-friendly pricing has never really been established. Currently, guests on the resort (Mauna Kea and Hapuna) can play for $225 per-golfer. Limited tee times for off-property guests are priced at $250 per-golfer. There appears to be no exceptions, except for the aeration period in September.
- Due to substandard course conditions and pending foreclosure issues, we have removed Big Island Country Club from our program. Unfortunately, we can no longer recommend playing there. Fortunately, we have plenty of other much better options to choose from.
Hawaii state sales tax (4.167%) is additional at most courses except Kona CC, where it is included in the rate.

******* OAHU *******
"The Gathering Place," as Oahu is known, is the mecca for sheer numbers of golf courses in the Hawaiian Islands, with almost half of the state's total. In addition to an expansive municipal system (better left for the locals to enjoy) and probably the best concentration of military layouts found anywhere, there are a variety of some of the most exciting and compelling privately owned, daily fee golf courses right on this island. HawaiiGolfDeals offers the best of them. Keep checking here for more to come shortly.HAWAII PRINCE GOLF CLUB AT EWA BEACH

===================================
******* KAUAI *******
"The Garden Island" is no longer the golf heaven it once was. Courses have closed (in fact, 36 resort holes at two locations are not operating), while they have supposedly been "renovating" for several years (no dates set to reopen). Another resort course will close on April 1 for at least nine months. Even their terrific municipal course has recently raised visitor rates by as much as 88% to $60 (walking) on weekdays and considerably higher on always crowded weekends. All we can say is WOW! The few remaining golf options offer little or no value to visitors seeking wall to wall golf. But it is a charming island to visit for a very short stay. Our advice is go to Kauai for 3-4 days and then head to The Big Island, Maui or Oahu for some real golf action and exceptional value. IMPORTANT WARNING: Beware of sharp Internet operators who charge you to access these or higher rates. They also fail to tell you about taxes or anything about themselves. In fact, they actually have the audacity to tell you these are INTERNET SPECIALS! Don't be fooled by the scam artists! And beware of the bait and switch to high-priced vouchers!
HOT TIP: If you are taking advantage of twilight rates at golf courses that are NOT in our program, get to the course about 90-75 minutes before twilight begins and tell them you are ready to play anytime they would like. Some courses will send you off early. In the interim, most courses have driving ranges and other practice facilities and often the range balls are free or very inexpensive.

===================================
IMPORTANT WARNING
Unfortunately, Internet scam artists are out there. So, here are some very important things you should know about these sharp operators and copycat golf “deals” in Hawaii:
BEWARE OF HIGHER PRICES AND NO ADDED-VALUES!
No other company can beat HawaiiGolfDeals. Period. But the Internet scam artists try to make you believe they have the better deals. Frankly, they are NOT EVEN CLOSE! Do they offer better prices, unlimited golf, range balls, pro shop discounts and 90-day tee times at most courses? No way. Not a chance!
BEWARE OF THE TOKEN DISCOUNT!
“Pretenders” are big on the token discount. If you’re looking for $15 off a “rack” rate of $195 for a round of golf or $10 off a $135 rack—pretenders may have it. In fact, they promote it like it’s their own heavily negotiated deal. But truth be told, that same token discount is usually available through the lodging property you are staying at, or by telling the pro shop where you are staying, or even just by asking. Some courses, not included in our program, will even give you a standard (“token”) discount just by showing your GOLFHAWAIICARD. It never hurts to ask.
BEWARE OF AERATION RATES MASQUERADING AS VALUE RATES
The pretenders are the king of the hill when it comes to misleading consumers. They even use special rates they are given for the 10 days following aeration to sell at low prices. But they conveniently leave out the fact that these are aeration rates. Don't fall for it and don't say we didn't warn you! Fact is, if they beat us, it has to be an aeration rate. Otherwise, they never beat HawaiiGolfDeals. Period.
BEWARE OF THE BAIT & SWITCH INTO HIGH-PRICED VOUCHERS!
The Internet scam artists grab innocent victims by promoting one thing and immediately try to switch you to another. Classic bait and switch. HawaiiGolfDeals appalls the bait and switch. We don’t offer every course in Hawaii. We are only interested in REAL VALUE and unlimited golf. If we do not carry a course, we do not feel it is a value for our cardholders. That’s why we have thousands of repeat customers.
BEWARE OF TEE TIME SERVICES!
Tee time services are completely unnecessary and a totally unwarranted expense in Hawaii. Hawaii’s golf courses have plenty of available tee times and charge you nothing to make one. Do not waste your time and money on a tee time service! When you subscribe to HawaiiGolfDeals, in addition to your personalized GOLFHAWAIICARD, you will receive a rate card that contains the phone numbers (toll-free whenever available) for every golf course in our program. With the GOLFHAWAIICARD, you can book your tee times up to 90 days prior to the day you intend to play and can make a tee time best suited for you and your party. Since 1994, we have NEVER had a cardholder who could not get a satisfactory tee time. NOT ONCE have we even had a complaint.
BEWARE OF ANY COMPANY THAT USES OUR NAME IN THEIR AD LEADS: "HAWAII GOLF DEALS"
This tactic of trying to confuse the consumer is one of the big problems with Internet marketing. And it is becoming more and more prevalent. We have taken legal action to protect our name and your ability to discern between the rogues and thieves and a quality company with a long and honest track record like HawaiiGolfDeals. If you see our name in their ad lead, stay away and help put a thief out of business. Which leads us into the last warning...
BEWARE OF ANY WEBSITE THAT DOES NOT TELL YOU WHO STANDS BEHIND IT!
On any website, look for an ABOUT US page. If none is there, or no individuals are standing behind the product(s), be very wary and leave the site immediately. Those who purport to offer discounts on Hawaii golf and golf packages and DO NOT tell you anything about themselves, are hiding something. Conversely, please visit and read our ABOUT US. Since 1994, we have stood behind what we sell and we are proud of it. Here on HawaiiGolfDeals.com, you can reach any of us via online CONTACT US options, as well as via toll-free numbers to call or send faxes.
REMEMBER: Nobody beats HawaiiGolfDeals and our GOLFHAWAIICARD deals throughout Hawaii. We're the Hawaii golf discount leader since 1994.
