We loved this suite! Eva and Jim, the property owners, went above and beyond any Bed and Breakfast I have ever been to. I have been to many B&Bs and this one is the absolute BEST! I would give them more stars if I could. They had an amazing extended continental breakfast with fresh fruit, yogurt, granola, toast, pastries etc much more than we expected. The suite is beautifully decorated, with all the comforts of home. They truly have thought of everything down to having beach chairs/boards...

Exceptional per usual! We love staying at the Whaler, the condo option is great for families that aren’t trying to eat out each meal and it’s in a great location by Black Rock for snorkeling, plenty of restaraunt options and next door to Whalers Village for plenty of shopping options.

From the moment we landed in Lana’i we were greeted by welcoming Four Seasons Ambassadors. It was a short shuttle ride to the breathtaking resort. We were welcomed by a Ukulele player, a wet washcloth, a Hawaiin lei and a fruit beverage. Since there was a group arriving with us, Flora told us she would get us checked in. Within a few minutes we had our wristband key and she even took us to our room. The room was beautiful and the view was amazing. There was high tech lighting and...

Maui Coast Hotel was an ideal base in Kihei! It was centrally located right across the street from Kamaole I Beach, and while I wouldn't necessarily recommend staying anywhere in Kihei without a car, there were definitely places to eat and hang in walkable distance in both directions, and the hotel also offered a complementary shuttle service within a 3-mile radius. For those with cars, the plentiful free parking was a nice contrast vs the predatory parking fees at the Wailea resorts.

The best family rental ever. For the price compared to all the other resorts you get the most bang for your buck: location, FULL KITCHEN, laundry, guest services, beach access, shopping, and the most beautiful ocean with snorkeling magic galore. We saw sharks turtles and fish by Black Rock. It was amazing. Our daughter loved her first trip to Hawaii. We will definitely be back to west Maui and highly recommend the Whaler.

Ali'i Kai is just a short walk to my favorite cafe on Maui: That's a Wrap...and then from there just a short walk to one of the most beautiful, walkable beaches in Kihei. I used to live in an Ali'i Kai condo, so this was like coming home. Incredible, all-around!

This is a lovely place to stay with wonderful service. Breakfast is extra, parking is extra and late checkout is extra. All seem excessive in a room over $800 a night. The bed was not very comfortable. View of ocean from the room butalmostno beach. Food was not worth the. Price and would recommend going off property to eat.

Great room all around. Incredible view, super clean, and all the amenities one could need (except A/C, but at least they provide plenty of fans and there are large sliding doors to allow cooler outside air inside).
Really a great place and great value. Highly recommend!

The unit was clean and very well appointed. We had a villa on the top row of the complex in cluster 75. The views from the lanai were spectacular, especially at sunset! Shuttle service to the Grand Wailea was very convenient, as were access to the pool/towel facilities over there.

Couples can enjoy boutique hotels, cozy retreats, or centrally located properties that provide a romantic environment, festive dining, and convenient access to Christmas markets, restaurants, and local celebrations.

Best time to go to Maui for a Christmas Vacation
The best time to go on a Christmas vacation in Maui depends on the type of festive experience you're looking for. Traveling in the weeks leading up to Christmas is ideal for visitors who want to enjoy holiday markets, seasonal events and the excitement of the season as destinations come alive with Christmas spirit. Christmas week itself offers the most eventful time, with special celebrations, festive dining, and memorable experiences that make the season feel truly magical. As one of the most popular travel periods of the year, both pre-Christmas and Christmas week can be busy, so booking early often provides the best choice of hotels and travel options. Whether you prefer soaking up the festive build-up or celebrating Christmas Day away from home, a Christmas vacation in Maui can be a memorable and rewarding holiday experience.
Tips to Save on a Christmas Vacation in Maui
Book early for the best selection and value. Christmas is one of the most popular travel periods of the year, so booking flights and hotels well in advance can help you secure better rates and a wider choice of accommodations. While last-minute deals can occasionally appear, waiting too long may mean fewer hotel options and higher rates, especially for popular destinations and family-friendly properties.
Consider pre-Christmas travel dates. Traveling in the weeks leading up to Christmas can be a great way to enjoy festive markets, holiday events, and a seasonal atmosphere while often benefitting from greater availability and attractive travel offers.
Bundle your trip to maximize savings. Combining flights, hotels, and other travel essentials into a package can often provide better overall value than booking separately. Bundle and-save options can also simplify planning and help travelers stay within budget.
Choose the right hotel for your needs. Family-friendly hotels, city center properties, and resorts all offer different benefits. Selecting accommodation that matches your travel style and priorities can help you get the most value from your Christmas vacation without paying for extras you may not need.
With a little planning and flexibility, travelers can enjoy the magic of a Christmas vacation in Maui while maximizing value and booking with confidence.
