Maui Vacations

Maui

Your Maui vacation

Get into the “Maui wowie” groove, from sunrise at the top of the 10,000-foot volcano Haleakala to sunset at Kaanapali Beach. An island used to the “celebrity disappears into the jungle” and “hippie girl takes it all off on bombshell beach” routines, Maui rebalances with vintage towns, serene spas, pristine beach coves, spring-fresh pastures and petite art galleries. No wonder Condé Nast Traveler readers call Maui the “Best Island in the World.”

Orbitz takes you inside the ultimate Maui vacation, from great hotels to must-see highlights and secret scoops. With Orbitz, your best trip ever is in the bag.

Best time to take a vacation to Maui

  • A winter-phobe’s dream come true, Maui sports sea-level summer all year and sunny beaches both west and south. Even humpback whales take a Maui vacation December through April, playing offshore throughout the season. Bring a jacket for the top of chilly Haleakala.

    Paradise is most peaceful – and most affordable – in early summer and fall. Or, time your Maui travel for a special event such as January’s golf-star-studded Tournament of Champions or April’s Hawaiian-culture Celebration of the Arts. June heats up with the renowned Maui Film Festival and Kapalua Wine & Food Festival. Halloween in Lahaina is an experience to remember.

Insider tips for Maui travel

  • Kahanu Garden

    Explore an oceanfront native-plant paradise surrounding a massive ancient Hawaiian temple mound. One of Maui’s secret gems, just off the highway in Hana.

  • Oneuli Beach

    Rarely visited and better for meditating than swimming, this hidden foliage-lined beach has dark volcanic sand, a cinder-cone hill and a far-from-the-world feel.

  • Castaway Cafe

    A “regular Joe” façade keeps this Island-style Kaanapali Beach poolside café from the swarms. A list of more than 500 wines makes it your immediate destination.

  • Kanaio Coast

    Reachable only by boat tour, this less-visited and remote coastal area hides deliciously creepy sea caves and secret snorkeling coves.

  • Maui Crafts Guild

    A local-artist owned and operated co-op in seaside Paia, the Guild is the right place to score handcrafted ceramics, prints, jewelry, textiles and other treasures.

Maui highlights

  • Maui
  • Haleakala National Park

    In case you never make it to Mars, the interior of this 10,000-foot volcano crater may do. Inside, an otherworldly landscape of cinder cones and strange plants unfolds.

  • Kaanapali Beach

    Maui’s most famous beach is both family friendly and babe-alicious. Find golden sand, gentle waves, exotic neighbor-island vistas and plenty of whales in winter.

  • Road to Hana

    Bust out the Dramamine and brave the curves on Maui’s legendary coastal drive to Hana, with dramatic ocean views, lush tropical landscapes and trickling waterfalls.

  • Molokini Marine Preserve

    Take snorkeling or scuba diving to psychedelic levels with a boat trip to Molokini, a semi-submerged volcanic crater marine sanctuary just off the coast.

  • Upcountry Maui

    Old-Hawaii cowboy meets New-Age yoga guru in the rustic and spring-fresh pasturelands of Upcountry. The wee town of Makawao is café and art-gallery perfect.

  • Whale watching

    Thrill your friends with stories of up-close encounters with 45-foot humpback whales. Pacific Whale Foundation offers some of the best small-boat tours.

  • Lahaina

    Visit Maui’s most colorful and honky-tonk town. Once a whaling seaport, now chockfull of historic tidbits, tchotchke shops, art galleries and cafés.

  • Makena Beach

    One of Maui’s best loved sunning beaches, Makena Beach (also known as Big Beach) offers an endless white-sand paradise unfettered by development.

  • Pipiwai Trail

    A moderately easy 4-mile roundtrip trail through tropical rainforest, including groves of bamboo, and ending at the spectacular Waimoku Falls.

  • Iao Valley State Park

    Explore a serene Jurassic Park tropical setting just outside of Wailuku, also the scene of an epic battle in 1790 for control of Maui.

Snorkel, sunbathe, windsurf at Hawaii’s best beaches

I used to think that all beach vacations were similar. There’s sand, sun, water, and the inevitably awkward man sporting a too-small Speedo. But all that changed when I took my first Hawaii vacation a few years ago. I soon discovered that, just as each island offers different flavors and scenery (where else but the Big Island can you find a sun-kissed beach and a snow-capped volcano within miles of each other?), each beach offers a little something different. Some have calm waves lapping at the shoreline for those who want the perfect photo opp, while others are more suited for active travelers searching for windsurfing or snorkeling. Read on for the best beaches for each kind of traveler.

Romance, renovations heat up Hawaii vacation scene

Hawaii vacations have never been more reasonable than in 2009…and with many of the classic island properties unveiling top-to-bottom renovations, the Hawaii hotel scene has never looked so luxurious.

Hawaii vacation: What makes each island unique

Whether you choose to visit Maui, Oahu, Kauai or the Big Island, each one is bound to offer you a remarkably different kind of Hawaiian vacation.
