I’m coming. Andaz is great too. Road to Hana is worthwhile a day trip (any part of the drive is the destination, doesn’t have to be a drive till the end. Better to stop in between and enjoy the scenery, picnic, …).

Download the Shaka guide app for this drive. Well worth the drive and guided app.

Andaz Maui for sure! Best luau!

That sounds fun 🤩

I enjoyed Wailea/Kihei more than Kaanapali, but that was largely because the latter really felt like a resort town while the former had more of a beach town feel. Lahaina will get you some of that though.

Wailea is sooo cool. There’s the Marriott Grand Wailea, Andaz, and a few others all next to each other. I’d stay there.

There’s also the Westin on the north part of the Island (where I stayed), though it wasn’t nearly as a nice as Wailea, it was still worth staying at and much cheaper!

I’m doing the same thing and also trying to plan it out. Thanks for the post!

ritz is a great hotel with excellent service but not necessarily set on the nicest beaches. It feels more norcal than tropical at times. Id echo what others said and stay in wailea or ka’anapali. Everybody has a different preference and they are both nice with good restaurants so cant go wrong with either

Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min. Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed). I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?
