Your 2021 Readers’ Choice Picks: Explore Maui from Mauka to Makai

We know you’ve been waiting to book your trip and now it’s time to make your list of places to stay and play once you arrive. If you are looking for a different kind of vacation rental, HAWAI‘I magazine readers voted Mana Kai Maui in Kīhei best—and there is nothing like its condominium rentals or hotel-style units on the Island. Royal Lahaina Resort in the heart of beautiful Lahaina was also voted best and offers gorgeous rooms, suites and beachfront cottages. Both are offering special rates just for our readers!  

Maui is an ocean lover's playground and Maui Ocean Center in Wailuku is a must-stop for the whole family. Enjoy gorgeous exhibits and the aquarium at this award-winning property. Readers voted Pacific Whale Foundation’s PacWhale Eco-Adventures best guided tour and best sunset or dinner cruise on Maui. There is nothing like a Maui sunset cruise and your booking supports the Foundation’s important conservation efforts. Want to check out the rest of the list and digital issue?
