(KAUA’I, Hawaii) – The Kaua’i golf-and-resort destination partners – www.golfkauaihawaii.com – present the Kaua’i Golf Trail Card, saving 15 percent on green fees at the highly acclaimed Garden Isle courses.
For $450, including tax, golfers receive three rounds at a choice of four participating courses – Princeville Makai Golf Club, Poipu Bay Golf Course, Kaua’i Lagoons Golf Club and Puakea Golf Course.
Additionally, Kaua’i Golf Trail Card holders get 10 percent off regular-priced pro shop items on the day of play. At Puakea, players get a $50 credit to be used for merchandise, rental clubs or green fees.
Golfers can purchase cards at any of the courses. There are no restrictions on time of play. Rounds are non-transferable and must be used at three different courses within 30 days of purchase.
“Kaua’i offers an amazing collection of unforgettable courses and resorts,” said Sue Kanoho, executive director of the Kaua’i Visitor’s Bureau. “The Kaua’i Golf Trail Card provides an ideal opportunity for golfers to enjoy this group of courses at a great value.”
In June, Kaua’i was voted a “Most ‘Dreamed-About’ Golf Destination” in GOLF Magazine’s inaugural Readers’ Choice Awards.
