Visitor Info
Travel
Fly into Kahului (OGG). We strongly suggest renting a car as taxi/ uber / lyft is generally unreliable.
Lodging
Maui has a lot to offer for any type of vacation! South Maui has amazing beaches & sunny weather. We recommend Kihei for the best airbnb deals & close proximity to the wedding (30 min drive) or Wailea for more upscale accommodations & quieter neighborhoods. . . We love the north shore for its rugged beaches, fewer crowds & jungle. Paia/ Haiku will have some good airbnb options (15-20 min). . . On the West side, Lahaina/ Kaanapali has many more resorts & great weather if you don't mind a longer drive to the wedding (1+ hour). . . Last but not least, Upcountry (where we live!) is nice for those who prefer to experience Maui's farmland & cooler temperatures, and Kula has a couple cute B&Bs. Our wedding will be during the day in Makawao.
Here are some specific options ranging from budget to splurge. Please don't hesitate to call if you want help choosing the right place for you!
