I would recommend booking 5 months out as we are in new territory here. The island is getting back to 2019 visitor levels but there are still capacity restrictions.

I paid almost 1000 dollars for a guided tour to Hana and then like....7 dollars for the app's tour. Had a better time on my own with the app. I don't leave reviews. But for this app, gotta recommend. Works flawlessly and will take you on the best day ever! The app along with Hawaii Vacation Guide Videos, you're all set. Enjoy Maui!

    We’ve stayed at Lahaina Shores in January of 2020 and January of 2021 and loved it there. It’s small and sits on the beach. You either have a Mountain View or an ocean view. The ocean view is worth the extra money! We’ve watched lots of whales from a distance from our balcony there. There was a sea lion that slept on the beach in front of the condo for a day while we was there this year. Nothing like eating breakfast on that balcony and watching the sun come up. I’ve been surprised how there’s not many people that mention this place in their videos. We’ve found Maui to be so relaxing and fun that we’re probably headed back there in January of 2022.

    Awsome tips!! Do you guys have a top 5 on areas to propose?

    3 жыл бұрын

    I had plans to propose during our last visit a few years ago, until my girlfriend beat me to it and we ended up getting engaged (and married) months before we got to the islands (a planned vacation turned into a belated honeymoon.) Anyway, my plan was to propose sometime on the Road to Hana, for a few reasons. One, it's pretty quiet. Even on a busy day, it's not hard to find a few minutes to be alone somewhere. Two, it's beautiful every step of the way. You'll be stopping every twenty minutes or so, and every stop involves gorgeous scenery that would make a great backdrop for a proposal. There are waterfalls, giant tropical plants and trees, black sand beaches, scenic overlooks, etc. Three, all those options mean you can make your plan very flexible! If one site isn't just right, you have countless other options. Let's say you're hoping to propose at a waterfall, but when you get there, it's really busy or it's raining, or it's just not the right atmosphere. No problem, just drive down the road a bit and try out plan B (or plan C, or D, or E, etc etc.) Best of luck!

    Very nice tips! The only caveat would be Haleakala, always check the weather before going up! First of all, it can be cold to freezing up there, especially when you throw in wind chill factor and rain, it is 10,000 ft elevation after all, and after trekking all the way up there, there is a chance you might not even see the sunrise at all which is why there might be a better chance of seeing sunset instead and maybe less crowd for sunset watches. If you book a trip with a tour company to go up, they won’t refund your money if you don’t get to see the sunrise or sunset, but if you do see it, it is one of the best views you will have ever seen, the sunrise looks like heaven opened up!

I would like to add or suggest one more thing that when anyone visits Maui, must visit Atlantis Submarine. It is in Lahaina. It is a Jaw dropping experience. We saw so many fishes. It is so beautiful. This ride is perfect for anyone who is not comfortable with swimming or snorkeling. It is also perfect ride for elderly people. Maui is really beautiful. Can't wait to go back. You will find all kind of fruits and flower trees specialy the Plumerias. We just love it.. I feel like retiring there. Good Luck and Enjoy the Paradise on Earth. Mahalo
