    I too wanted to thank Jordan and Erica again, for making our trip to Maui this past November so enjoyable. We stayed in Kihei, and had such an incredible time. We visited Iao Valley, Haleakala, the road to Hana, and so many other amazing places.
    Some of our personal favorite places to eat were Maui Brewing Company, Huli Huli Chicken, Thai Mee Up, Gus The Bus/Ululani Shave Ice, Monkeypod- great happy hour deals, Nalus, Three's Bar, Kraken Coffee/Akamai coffee. So many great places to get food on Maui!

    I was just there a few days ago and stayed in Kihei! You guys have been invaluable in helping me plan a short vacation after a work trip in Oahu - I watched all of your videos. Went snorkeling in Molokini and turtle town, whale watching from Kihei boar ramp in a small raft, and did all the things you featured here except for the lava walk. Kihei has so many food trucks I couldn't try them all. I would spent sunset walking along the boardwalks and beach parks. The best part was kayaking on Oluwalu and having a very close encounter with the whales - it's the latest vid I uploaded on my YT. Thanks for all the information you shared here, it made the 4 days I spent in Maui pretty special.

    • @TheHawaiiVacationGuide
      @TheHawaiiVacationGuide  5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Nalus is a must and from my experience they have the best Mac salad on the island. I tried it in a lot of places while in Maui and Nalus is #1.

    Ha! I am literally in Kihei right now, and Google suggested this to me. We spent most of our time exploring other parts of Maui (road to Hana, Aio, Paia, Upcountry) but have enjoyed the beaches and food here, including the same shave ice place. Get some great, healthy food at Hawaiian Moons, then walk across the road to sit at a picnic bench in the park and scan the water for whale spouts!

    Sugar Beach Bakery is amazing!! Their Coconut Creme Pie is the best on the island for me!!!
