Nestled in the heart of Wailuku, Ester’s Fair Prospect has quickly become the go-to destination for locals and visitors seeking a warm, inviting atmosphere paired with exceptional cocktails. Founded by longtime friends Suzanne Navarro and Jessica Everett, this charming cocktail bar in Central Maui embodies the essence of Hawaiian hospitality, creating a space where everyone feels like part of the family. Whether you’re reminiscing with old friends, enjoying a round of drinks with new acquaintances, or simply unwinding after a long day, Ester’s Fair Prospect offers a relaxed vibe and delicious drinks.
Ester’s is proof positive to Navarro and Everett’s dedication to fostering a close-knit community. Drawing inspiration from Wailuku itself, the duo fell in love with the town’s artistic spirit and entrepreneurial energy. Their vision was clear from the start: to create a neighborhood bar that celebrates local culture and craftsmanship. This vision is evident in every detail of the establishment, from the hand-built stools and shelves to its supreme selection of quality and hard-to-find spirits. Highlighted by an impressive rum collection, featuring over 40 bottles from more than 30 countries, this is arguably the most impressive rum selection on Maui.
At Ester’s Fair Prospect, the drinks are crafted with an unwavering commitment to quality and local flavor. This influence is palpable in the bar’s innovative cocktail menu, which emphasizes the use of Maui-sourced ingredients. A standout favorite is the Esters Daiquiri (pictured directly below), sweetened with Maui cane sugar instead of traditional simple syrup. This substitution enhances the drink’s natural acidity and complexity, offering a fresh and vibrant taste. Navarro and Everett’s dedication to using fresh, local ingredients ensures that each cocktail not only tastes exceptional but also supports Maui’s thriving agricultural community.
The ambiance at Esters Fair Prospect is reminiscent of a close friend’s house, where the atmosphere is relaxed and conversations flow effortlessly. Longtime friends gather in one corner, sharing stories and inside jokes, while new visitors enjoy their first rounds of expertly mixed cocktails. Regulars sit comfortably, enjoying the consistency of excellent service and the familiarity of friendly faces. The bar’s handcrafted wood chairs and benches provide a grounded, aesthetic touch that balances the vibrant art, creating a space that is both lively and welcoming.
Suzanne Navarro and Jessica Everett have successfully created a space that feels like home, where quality drinks, exceptional service, and a commitment to local come together seamlessly. Whether you’re a seasoned cocktail enthusiast or someone looking to explore Maui’s hidden treasures, Ester’s Fair Prospect invites you to join their close-knit crew and experience the best of what Wailuku has to offer.
