Luxury holidays in Maui

When to go

The weather is always warm in Maui, but the island is busiest between December and March, when residents of the continental US escape cold winter climates. April through August is a particularly nice time to visit.

Getting there

• Planes

  Kahului International Airport is in the middle of the island, east of the West Maui Forest Reserve. The airport operates flights from throughout the West Cost, including Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle, as well as inter-island flights to Kona, Honolulu and Hoolehua. Hana Airport, in the south-eastern town of Hana, is a small regional airstrip that accommodates commuter aircrafts.

• Automobiles

  A car is essential if you plan to explore Maui, and its many towns and natural wonders. There are plenty of rental kiosks at the airport, and most hotels offer valet parking.
