Our series “Weekend Living” is all about what you might want to spend your day off doing on different parts of Maui. So far we’ve covered Kihei, Wailuku, Kāʻanapali and Nāpili. Today we head upcountry to spend time in Kula!  

Where to Eat Breakfast:  

Whether you want to start your day off with a pastry and a coffee, or a full sit down loco moco, Grandma’s is the place to head first.  

Where to Spend Your Morning:  

The Ali’i Kula Lavender Farm has limited hours, but is a beautiful experience if the scheduling works out. Take a tour or walk the property yourself, and shop their locally made lavender products. 

Alternatively, if it’s the right time of year for a pumpkin patch, or strawberry picking, we…

On this episode of our Weekend Living series, we are visiting Kāʻanapali and Nāpili. (Make sure to go back and explore Kihei and Wailuku with us too!)  

Where to Eat Breakfast:  

Head to the Gazebo Restaurant for staples like pancakes, omelets, and other dishes with tropical twists. Or swing by Island Vibes Cafe for coffee and quick bites. Slappy Cakes is also a ton of fun (you can make your own pancakes at your table’s personal griddle)! 

Where to Spend Your Morning:  

Black Rock is a classic Kāʻanapali beach for a reason: a large sandy beach, frequent visits from turtles, snorkeling, and cliff jumping make this a very popular spot.  

Kapalua Bay and Nāpili Bay are  also both excellent selections for a…

Welcome back to our series “Weekend Living” where we take you through what a day off can look like in the different Maui areas. Last month we wandered Kihei, and this week we’re having a change of scenery and cruising Wailuku!  

Where to eat breakfast:  

It would be a shame to be in the area and skip out on Wailuku’s variety of well-loved bakeries. We recommend hitting up Four Sisters Bakery for Filipino and Hawaiian baked goods, or Stillwell’s Bakery for sweet and savory breakfast options.  

Where to spend your morning:  

The Maui Tropical Plantation is a great place for all ages! Take a short tour on their Tropical Express, or the more adventurous can check out the ziplining. There’s also opportunities to walk…

Welcome to our new series Weekend Living, where we take you through what a day off can look like in the different Maui areas. Today we are starting with Kihei!  

Considered the drier side of Maui, some perks of Kihei include it’s variety of beaches, walkability, and great array of dining options.  

Where to eat breakfast:  

There are plenty of places to grab a coffee and a light breakfast, such as Akamai Coffee (their Kihei location has a drive through for those on the go), or The Frontroom.   

Looking for a more robust first meal of the day? Check out the popular Kihei Caffe or Nalu’s South Shore Grill. 

Where to spend your morning:  

We recommend the beach of course! Perks of hitting the beach…
