About Lahaina's Kapalua

The Kapalua Club's private Beach Club is one of my favorite places to spend a sunny day off. From the saline infinity edge pool and hot tub, to the lounge chairs overlooking Kapalua Bay, there is no prettier spot to relax.

Sunsets have been spectacular lately, and I find myself wandering down there to take in the sunset after work each day.

Open exclusively to Kapalua Club Members and owners at the Ritz-Carlton Club and Residences, Kapalua Bay, the Beach Club restaurant serves light meals and appetizers, as well cocktails.

The Beach Club is currently running the following specials:

Happy Hour: 3-5 Every Day--enjoy discounts on food and drinks
Wine Night: 3-5 Tuesdays--special discounts on bottles and wines by the glass
Golf Receipt Special: Every Day--bring in a receipt from Golf played that day in Kapalua and receive happy hour prices for your first drink any time of day

Property Owners in the Kapalua Resort may apply for membership in the Kapalua Club. For more information, visit www.kapaluaclub.com

Kapalua Resort: 124 Acre Parcel Closes Escrow

Today, the Kapalua Land Company closes on the Mahana Estates for $10,000,000. The 124 acre parcel is located between the Plantation Estates and the Village Course Walking Trails. This large acreage is intended for further subdivision into 51 residential home sites. Situated just across from the ocean and extending high up the mountain side, the views from Mahana Estates are spectacular and quite varied.

The sale of Mahana Estates is the first vacant land sale to record in the Kapalua Resort this year.

For over a decade, the Maui's Kapalua Resort has been known for hosting the season-opening event of the PGA TOUR. This year, the resort welcomes Seoul Broadcasting Systems as the new sponsor, replacing Mercedes-Benz. The SBS Championship will be played on one of Maui's finest and most challenging golf courses, the Plantation Course.

The tournament is scheduled for the week of January 4-10, 2010. In order to be eligible, the PGA touring professional must have won a tournament the previous year. Approximately 34 players will be competing for their share of the $5.6 million purse.

Tickets are now on sale, or you can be a part of the tournament, playing alongside some of golf's best. A limited number of SBS Championship Pro-Am spots are still available.

For PRO-AM information, visit www.kapalua.com, or call SBS Championship at 808-665-9160
