Our warm invitation to experience the beauty of Maui this winter
The good people at Hawaii Vacation Guide recently produced an informative video detailing six effective methods for bolstering our local economy. Maui is currently open for visitors, with the exception of Lahaina. In their video, they delve into the following six strategies, affectionately known as the “six S’s”:
Skyward Sojourn – Hawaiian Airlines

Hawaiian Airlines, a homegrown carrier headquartered in Honolulu with a storied history in Hawaii dating back to 1929, beckons with enticing winter fare deals. Travelers can secure fares as low as $99 for flights between Kahului and Los Angeles from January 22, 2024, to February 1, 2024, for the main cabin basic fare.
Spin Around in Style – Local Car Rentals

For convenient island exploration, consider renting a vehicle from one of our local rental car establishments. Kihei Rent-A-Car, a family-owned and operated enterprise since 1990, offers an array of options, including: minivans, convertibles, adventure ready trucks and jeeps.

Savor the Flavors – Culinary Delights
Maui boasts an abundance of culinary delights that cater to every palate. Delve into the island’s diverse food scene and relish a cornucopia of taste sensations. Make sure to check out Tiffany’s Restaurant & Bar in Wailuku, our favorite new local spot!

Scenic Seafaring – Trilogy Excursions
Experience the magic of Maui’s underwater world with Trilogy’s luxurious snorkeling adventures to Molokini Crater and Lanai. Choose an early or mid-morning excursion (subject to weather conditions) and savor delectable food and beverages while exploring these marine marvels.

Stay Locally – Support the Community
Opt for accommodations provided by local establishments to contribute to the island’s economy and immerse yourself in its distinctive charm. A few of our favorite locally owned hotels and inns include The Mauian on Napili Bay, Maui Seaside Hotel, as well as The Inn at Mama’s Fish House.

Shop Local – Discover Unique Treasures
Maui offers an array of local shopping options, featuring one-of-a-kind products that bolster the community. Whether you seek handmade crafts, local artwork, or traditional Hawaiian souvenirs, you’ll discover special keepsakes to commemorate your journey. Some noteworthy places to explore include:
- Maui Ocean Treasures in Ma’alaea
- Hui No’eau Visual Arts Center in Makawao
- Maui Swap Meet in Kahului
- Maui Crafts Guild in Paia

These are merely a selection of recommendations, as Maui boasts a wealth of additional local shops and markets awaiting your exploration. Don’t forget to explore the local farmers’ markets, where you can procure fresh produce and unique culinary treasures. Your visit to Maui serves as a vital means of support for our island community. We wholeheartedly encourage you to make the trip, explore, and lend your support to our cherished local businesses.
