Lillian’s 5-star review: The pineapple tour was 90 minutes. The tour was very educational. Not just about pineapple but about Maui as well. We got on the shuttle and drove through the pineapple plantation. Our tour guide was amazing. He was funny and engaging. We stopped a few times to go out in the field where he would tell us more about the pineapples. He also had pineapple props for us for picture purposes. We got to choose a pineapple right from the plant to eat. This was the best part. Our tour guide shaved off the pineapple and I was able to eat it fresh. Pineapple in Hawaii really does taste different. It's so much sweeter. When we were done, we tossed it in the fields. Each person receives a Gold Maui Pineapple to take home. Unless you get the individual box, the boxes have 3 pineapples in them. This sells at OGG airport for $29.99. I thought $65 for a tour was on the expensive side but considering the $30 value of the pineapples I got to go home with, it's not so bad. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: Mama's Fish House is the best seafood restaurant I have ever been to. We came here to celebrate our anniversary. Upon getting seated, there was a card that said happy anniversary. They also gave me a lei to celebrate. They really make special occasions even more special. I ordered the onaga with sweet potato mash. It was skillet seared so it was nice and crispy. My favorite of all was really the sweet mash potatoes. It had a coconut flavor to it but not empowering. The husband ordered the onaga with hamakua mushrooms. He said this was the best meal he had in Maui. We had an open window seat and the view of the beach is just gorgeous. There is complimentary valet. Reservations are highly recommended as this place is popular. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: I really enjoyed my stay at Hyatt Regency. I stayed here for 7 nights. I booked an ocean view room and my view was just gorgeous. It overlooked Kaanapali beach and the pool. Upon arrival, valet allowed me to park my vehicle in front so I could grab my luggage easier. After checking in, I was adorned with a lei. Hyatt is trying to go green so they offer guests 2 reusable water bottles in the room. There is a water and ice machine on each floor. There are several activities and exercise classes each day. There's yoga, Pilates, and water aerobics classes in the morning. There's a lei making class that gets booked up quick. Make sure to call at 7 am the day of to reserve. It was booked up the day I wanted to do it so I ended up going to Whaler's Village which also had a free lei making class. Also be sure to check out the penguin exhibit! Hyatt Regency is at the beginning of the resorts so I found it to be more quiet and less crowded. The beach was more empty compared to the areas near Black Rock. Most of the time, there were only 2 groups of people in the water around me. Parking is $20 a night. The parking lot does get full past 9 pm. The spots are small so it's tricky to park larger cars. If the lots are full, tell valet and they will park your car for the $20 rate. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: Da Kitchen Cafe was the best meal I had in Maui! I was in Kahului around dinner time and went on Yelp to find a place to eat. I decided to go to Da Kitchen based on the 2k+ reviews. I got there around 6 pm and there was already a line. If there's a line, you know it's the "it" place to eat. Score! I waited for 30 min before I was seated. We ordered the fried spam musubi, regular musubi, and side of salad. The fried spam musubi was bigger since it had a coating. It was warm and crunchy and cut into fours. The sauce between the spam and the rice was really good. The side salad was a nice balance to all the spam. Restrooms are located in the adjacent hallway. There's a code to it which is posted on the sidedoor of the restaurant. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: I had the ramen with veggies. It really hit the spot because I was craving something soupy and vegetarian. I ordered medium and it was pretty spicy already. The owner saw me hacking at the spiciness so he brought me more water. This place has a homey feel to it. The food is good and the owners area really nice. Ramen doesn't come with any sides but he let me try the kimchi and seaweed. Definitely recommended for Korean/Japanese food! -
Lillian’s 5-star review: I got here at 9:30 am and there were already 8 parties in front of me. It's a popular brunch joint for a reason! I got the 808 Grindz Breakfast with 2 eggs, spam, toast, and potatoes. I normally don't like toast but this toast was nice and buttery with a slight crunch. It went well with the spam. I ordered sunny side eggs and the yolk was runny (just the way I like it). It was so good dipped in the toast. The husband ordered Spam Moco with 3 spam, rice, and gravy. It's a bigger portion. This was a heavier breakfast than what we normally eat but it filled us up all the way until dinner. The restaurant is small. Pay attention to parking because some parking is only an hour. The wait is at least an hour already. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: This is a must stop right after arriving at the airport. It's right next to the airport. There's also a gas station so fuel up on the way back to the airport too. This is a great place to get some souvenirs. I got a 6 pack of Hawaiin Host for $20. Finished my souvenir shopping on my first day! Groceries in Hawaii is a lot more expensive so I loaded up on water bottles, fruit, and snacks while I was there. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: I tried the one in California and really liked the food so I just knew I had to try the original in Maui. I got the poke bowl over brown rice for $16. The poke was fresh and had a lot of flavor. Teriyaki sauce over the brown rice really balanced all the fish. The husband got fish and chips. It came with fries and coleslaw. There were 2 different kind of fish that came with the order. It was crispy and not oily at all. Husband really enjoyed his dinner. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: My hotel was nearby by so I stopped by Whalers Village a few times. It was a fun little area to walk around when I had down time. It does have a lot of the typical stores but tax here is a lot cheaper (only 4%!) so it is a worthwhile place to check out. It's not as big as a typical mall on the mainland but they do have Louis Vuitton, Lululemon, Sephora, and many others. The ABC Store is a must visit! They carry souvenirs, food, clothes, and other little necessities like sunblock. All the items I was planning to buy at the shop in my hotel was a lot cheaper here. The prices are comparable to the other locations in Lahaina. They also hold special events each day such as lei making, hula lessons, ukulele lessons, and live music. I did the lei making class which is offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays. It's located next to the ABC Store by the canopy. This was something I wanted to do while in Hawaii and I'm so glad I was able to make a lei here. There were so many different colored flowers to choose from and the instructor was very helpful. It's free but tips are encouraged. The hours are 9:30 am - 10 pm. However, I found that most shops start closing around 9 pm. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: The Old Lahaina Luau is the most authentic luau in Maui. Make sure to reserve early! This is the one of the more popular luaus so it gets booked quick. It was $120 after tax per person. This includes unlimited food, drinks, and a show. Right when I walked in, I got a lei and a mai tai. Lei'd with drinks-- my night was complete already! It's an open bar and you can order at your table. They make a non-alcoholic version of the drinks too. I chose the traditional seating and sat on the ground. The table seats 8 and has cushions. The traditional seats had the closest view and were the best seats in the house IMO. Other luau charges extra for closer seats but Old Lahaina only has one pricing which is nice. We were each sent home with a goody bag--freshly made banana bread. I didn't realize this when I booked it, but there aren't any fire dancers here. I was a little bummed but I was still mesmerized by the hula dancing and the story they told. A luau was a must do on my list of activities for Hawaii and this ended up being my most favorite memory of my trip. -
Lillian’s 4-star review: Lahaina Fish is located on Front Street. I came here for dinner. There was a 30 minute wait so I shopped around Front St. and came back. Although the restaurant has fish in the name, we ended up ordering non-seafood items. The husband ordered the primo burger. It came with bacon, pineapple, and fries. I ordered the roasted seasonal squash stuffed with quinoa. It was stir fried with bell peppers, cabbage, peas, kale, and zucchini with tamari sauce. It was good but really salty. I asked my waiter if this dish is supposed to be salty and he offered to make me another one and have sauce on the side. I actually think it tastes better without the tamari sauce. The manager came and apologized about the saltiness and comped my meal. They didn't have to do that and it was such a nice gesture. This restaurant has a great view of the ocean. Service is impeccable and the menu has so much variety. -
Lillian’s 4-star review: I wanted some local Hawaiian food for my first meal in Maui and found Lahaina Luna Café. We ordered the chicken katsu plate which came with rice and macaroni salad and the sesame soba noodles. The soba noodles were refreshing since it was served cold. The macaroni salad was my favorite! It's kind of like a food truck style. There's only outside seating. The portions are a bit small. We were still hungry so we grabbed dessert at Ululani's next door. -
Lillian’s 5-star review: Ululani's is really the best shaved ice I've ever had! I tried several different shaved ice places while in Maui but by far, Ululani's was the best. Hawaiian shaved ice is so much better than the typical shaved ice. Ululani's technique of finely shaving the ice is what makes them different and so good. There are so many flavors to choose from and you get to choose 3. There's a choice of ice cream or azuki beans. I actually prefer the azuki beans more. It added a nice flavor and texture to the shaved ice.

Lillian’s 5-star review: This is a great place to shop if you're staying at the resorts at Ka'anapali beach. There's a lot of touristy souvenirs and they carry necessities like food and sunblock. There were some items I wanted to get that the shop in my hotel had but ABC Store had it for cheaper. I ended up doing a lot of my souvenir shopping here. There's a free shuttle that stops by Whaler's Village too for those who don't have a car.
