Which side of the island do you prefer to stay on if you've been here before? West Maui or South Maui?

@AlexadraXXOXX 3 года назад

West side. Every side of Maui is a good side to visit, but west is my preferred place to just chill.

@biggabe8292 3 года назад

I’m West side. Went in June 2019 stayed at the Westin. Going again in May 2022 for 11 days. Me and the Wifey can’t wait. Thanks for the videos

@tonydail5635 3 года назад

Great video. We live in Kula and loved all the advice, especially the pulling over part and the reef safe lotion part. May want to mention, for those who like wind and, depending on the season, bigger waves, Hookipa, Kanaha (wind sports) and seeing Paia.

@timkenyon6088 3 года назад

West side...Maui Kai. Stayed on south side...not as much to do. Camped at Olowalu...calm and quiet.

@geronimocramos 3 года назад

Kihei! It was chiller to me than Lahaina and much more central so it was easy to trek back to Kauhlui when needed. It also felt WAY less touristy and less hot than Lahaina.

@brieb402 Год назад

I just have to say, the organization and production quality of your videos are so great. And I LOVE the insight you give

@ralphthomas7694 3 года назад

Straight up the best information concerning Maui. I have lived here for 6 years and this dude is spot on and friends/family visit all the time. I will share this post on my personal business website!

@briankendalll2093 2 года назад

Incredible video bro! We are staying in West Maui this coming May. Your rental car info and the pull over for locals info is priceless. Cheers.

@cassielynn5563 3 года назад

We stayed in Kihei last week! Maui is beautiful and I agree with all our your suggestions. I had no issues with my place, it was super cheap yet clean and safe. We were only in the room to sleep, didn't even turn the TV on once. There is so much to do and see, your days go by so quickly. A rental car is a must in my opinion if staying in Kihei.

@BKRVlogs 3 года назад

Glad you had a good time!

@tingtaugo5761 2 года назад

This is really informative. Coming from a local in Maui, this video is surely one thing I’m going to consider when going to Maui with family next year. 🙏 Love the content and the way it presented. Thanks. Great video.

I enjoy the genuine excitement and pride that this guy has of his home. It really just comes through in the video. I’m like that with where I live. Are used to drive Lyft And I loved sharing with my visiting writers different things about my town.

Will be there in late July - We always make a point to be respectful of where we are, and the locals.. Seems tensions are high right now with locals and tourists (I can certainly understand). Thank you for putting this together, it will be very helpful. Looking forward to our visit.

@dylanfrim259 2 года назад

We love staying in Kihei! its in the "Middle" of the island, so everything we want to do is usually a short drive away. Lahaina is a little further but not bad, and a scenic drive!

@gabrieldepallens9914 2 года назад

Love the video. I’m going with my wife on our honey moon in August to Maui and I dumped the idea of taking the road to Hana. But after seeing the beautiful landscapes of your video, we’ll definitely give it a go

Definitely South Maui for me. There are some beautiful and reasonably priced condos with everything you need to be self-sufficient during your stay.

My wife and I are headed to Maui tomorrow for the third time. This time we're bringing our 12 year old granddaughter. We have lots of excursions planned and already reserved. I loved your video. Staying in a house across from Kaanapali beach for two weeks.

Kahana side was my first apt. in west side in 1991. Gotta love those sunsets on that side. With that said I do like Upcountry , I had some friends up there. It was nice to be up in the cool mountains.

I have always wanted to visit Maui and my husband and I have booked a trip for our 2 year anniversary this year for the end of August- early Sept. We are staying in West Maui and I was wondering if you have any recommendation for the best luau to go to?

How about a few things to do if you have someone in a wheelchair? Staying at the Westin Ka naapali Ocean Condos beginning July 10th.

@nathanc1542 3 года назад

As far as the road to Hana and the locals, will they just ride our butts until we pull over? put the flashers on? honk? We will be there starting July 2. Also is there anywhere to see fireworks on July 4th? Staying on the North side of Kihei. Thanks! Great Video!!

@aznxix Год назад

do you have any recommended reef safe sunscreen? banana boat and sun bum are supposedly "reef friendly"

@isleenballard3292 3 года назад

Thank you for your videos! It really helps. We will be there in August for our honeymoon! We are staying at the Wailea Resort, is there a luau you would recommend for us? After watching your video we will be going snorkeling and sunset cruise! Can’t wait for your next video.

@BKRVlogs 3 года назад

I’d reccomend the luau at the Grand Wailea since it’ll be near your hotel and you don’t want to drive to far after a luau.

@isleenballard3292 3 года назад

Thank you!!! How is the rental car situation over there? We tried renting a car but our travel agent said everything was booked. A lot of ppl are going to Maui in August lol

@BKRVlogs 3 года назад

Get a drone! They are great! You just have to stay below a certain altitude due to Kapalua airport nearby.

@jomcdiarmid Год назад

Hello, I wanted to bring my family to Maui this February, can you recommend any accommodations to stay and rentals for vehicles?

@timkenyon6088 3 года назад

Honolua is OK in the winter if you are on a snorkel boat tour. Done that many times in February and March.

@BKRVlogs 3 года назад

Yes just depends if the river is flowing though from the rain in the mountains. Always hit or miss. If it’s raining, the bay is brown.

@andreafield2777 2 года назад

Also been waiting for the rest of the series. What am I missing?

@chrismarcotte4241 Год назад

Check on road conditions before going on Road to Hana, Sometimes bridges or roads have slides during rainy season. We come 2 times a year for a month each time and wouldn't be without a car. We stay in Kaanapali. Love Lahaina! Ask about Beach conditions, wear flotation! Currents can be strong!

@lizaj4275 2 года назад

@rafaelcerda4359 3 года назад

What place do you recommend to stay not to expensive? it's a group of 6 people

@jasondaniels6110 3 года назад

Great video! One thing I would like to add (if someone hasn't mentioned it yet) is, for the most part the only time the locals have to go to the beach is on the weekends. So out of respect maybe try to stay away from the more popular spots on those 2 days. I would say my favorite area is Kihei/ Wailea, some beautiful big beaches in that area.

@BKRVlogs 3 года назад

Thank you! This is some really useful information!

@taylormarley5150 3 года назад

Mahalo! I found this video just in time - we are visiting the West side in two weeks. Quick question - we weren’t expecting to have to make restaurant reservations and someone told us we should look into it just because of reduced capacity - turns out a lot of the restaurants in Lahaina have no reservations available two weeks out. 🤣 are most places still accepting walk-ins? Second question - best local fish restaurant close to Kaanapali? We’ve been there before but are always looking for hole in the wall places. THANK YOU!

@BKRVlogs 3 года назад

Many of my favorite restaurants actually don't take reservations, so I wouldn't worry to much about it! I'll be making a video about this topic soon actually. Tamura's in Lahaina has my favorite fresh Poke on the island. Restaraunt-wise, I'd say Paia Fish Market or Fish Market in Honokowai is great!

@CarleePaul257 Год назад

@pattietaylor6297 Год назад

For senior citizens, I've seen a suggestion of renting a camper van so you can stay in that and travel around the island. Do you recommend that? We are looking for affordable place to stay plus a chance to really explore the basics of the island, not off-road, not dry camping just the basics. Thanks for this page it's really fun to hear about this from a resident.
