Rent A Car-Even if you plan on spending most of your time sipping Mai Tai's on the beach, we recommend renting a car to explore other parts of the island. Maui has so many unique places to see and visit. We also recommend signing up with a car rental company that has a program that allows you to bypass the counter altogether, allowing you to head straight to your car. We use Budget Fastbreak but most major rental companies offer that as well.

Plan A Grocery Pick Up Upon Arrival-All of our condos have full kitchens! There's a Target and Walmart just a few minutes from the airport. We like to place a big grocery order for pick up on the day of our arrival and then swing by on the way to the condo! Prices are much cheaper in Kahului and the convenience of not having to run out and get groceries once you get settled is super helpful! You can get your vacation started right away! **Grocery delivery services are also available.**

Come During The Off Seasons-We recommend coming during the quieter times of the year which are April-May and September-October. The weather is absolutely perfect and the island is quieter. There's less traffic, beaches are less busy, and you can get dinner/excursion reservations much easier. It's honestly our favorite time to visit!

Must Do Sunsets-Let's be real; really any spot on Maui offers great sunsets but our favorite spot is Big Beach in Makena. Not only is the sunset stunning but you get great views of Kaho'olawe island and the Molokini Crater!

Respect The Wildlife-It's likely you'll encounter some really amazing animals when you're on Maui! Please be sure to keep a safe distance from them for your safety and theirs!

Reef Safe Sunscreen-Please wait until you get to Maui to buy your sunscreen! Many ingredients found in most normal sunscreens are banned on Maui to protect the health of the reefs. ALL sunscreen sold on Maui is guaranteed to be reef safe!
