Item Number: 206
Time Left: CLOSED
Description
Called Nanea - a Hawaiian word connoting, among other things, tranquility, leisure and something of absorbing interest - the club was founded by two eminent figures in finance and philanthropy, Charles Schwab & George Roberts.
They recruited Scotsman David McLay Kidd, one of the world's leading golf course architects, to design an 18 hole course that spreads across one third of the club's 1000 acre parcel. Tons of lava rock were removed to make room for fairways planted with vibrant green Paspalum, a salt tolerant and environmentally friendly turf. The course follows the contours of the land, with no artificial features and no landscaping other than the tufted fountain grass that occurs naturally in Hawaii's old lava flows. According to Kidd, it is a subtle, complex course for skilled golfers.
