Spring on Maui 2011

Maui has had a winter of flash floods and even a tsunami. Thank-fully spring has arrived and it's picture perfect for touring our beautiful Island . Maui is so green and the jacarandas are going in to full bloom in our up country areas . One of my very favorite ways to see this beautiful island is by air.

Miss Hawaii

Mahalo to all who supported our daughter compete in the Miss Hawaii pageant in Oahu June 12 2010. She was stunning on stage . We were so proud of her hard work and commitment. She was in the top 22 and did an excellent job.The new Miss Hawaii had competed a few years in a row so it was well deserved.
As our hot summer has arrived on Maui we need to enjoy our clean waters that make Maui so special. So sad what is happening in the gulf and we feel blessed in Hawaii to not have oil in our waters. We hope for the gulf a fast clean up and recovery. To live in Maui and enjoy the ocean is such a treat. I went to Molokini a few weeks ago, the visibility was over 100 feet. I saw Dolphins and turtles what an amazing day. Let us help you find the right boat for your family ,it's what we do the best.

Wow it's a Whale of a season

This is by far one of the best whale watching seasons Maui has had. Everyday our guest are coming back sharing their awesome tales of their encounters with our humpback whales.
I reserved a couple on Blue Water rafting on Sunday. They have gone out every day since.
Mom's and babies are so active right now.The baby can only stay down up to 15mins so they play with mom at the surface a lot.
As for me,well my daughter is running for Miss Maui 01/31/2010 so we are shopping every weekend.We wish her Good Luck in her endeavors.
I will be on a boat Feb 1st the next day to enjoy our gentle giants. Come and join me for a wonderful two hour whale watch.

Summer Time Fun

Wow this summer sure is going by fast. In July my husband and I went for a motorcycle trip of Northern California. The weather was perfect the whole ride. We started in San Francisco going up into the wine country. Spent a few days on beautiful back roads to the Trinity Alps.Lots of family time on the lake then off to hwy one on the coast. Spent a few days going back to S.F. through Mendocino. What a great nine days.

To come home to Maui is always such a treat. When you live on Maui you sometimes forget just how special our Island is.At the end of July we went to Hana for my birthday and spent the night. If you have never done that please treat yourself we stayed in a great house and rented it with www.hanamauitravel.com The next morning we had a massage in a magical hale above Hana bay with http://www.luanaspa.com/ . I just can't recommend both of these companies enough ,they are the spirit of what makes Maui special .

If you are coming to Maui make sure to call our office 1888-841-9155 to get more fun ideas. You can have a great stay on Maui and not break the bank. We know these are hard times,let us help find some specials for your family. Many of our companies are offering free children tickets with each paying adult.

Enjoy the last of summer.

Aloha on this beautiful day in Maui. On Saturday I took my brother his friend Marcie and husband to Molokini on Maui Magic for a haft day of snorkeling . It was a beautiful morning as we boarded the Magic we were greeted by Captain Buz and crew . Katie made sure we had juice, bagels and great fresh fruit. As we left the Maalaea harbor the crew blow the conch shell and we greeted the ocean with a wonderful Hawaiian Chant for safe passage.Then off we went to see the southern coast of Maui. Capatin Buz shared his Hawaiian knowledge of all the views we were treated to. In Molokini we saw the clear waters full of tropical fish, what a great snorkeling adventure.I even took a fresh water shower as I got back aboard . Wow that was great! Then off we went to the coral gardens. This location is so beautiful with colorful coral heads and so many varieties of tropical fish. When I got back on the boat I was greeted to a BBQ lunch of hamburgers,hot dogs or veggie burgers ,chips and drinks. It just doesn't get much better then this OH -Oh and Macadamia nut cookies for dessert "yummy". We headed back to the harbor after Captain Buz shared a area that is home to many large green sea turtles everyone on the boat was so excited so see these very graceful creatures.What a day,we all really enjoyed the Maui Magic and her crew . Mahalo to Captain Buz and his crew Katie,Jason and Brian.

Maui has many great boat companies offering lots of different trips. Last night I took my brother who is visiting me on a Dinner cruise on the Quicksilver out of Maalaea Harbor. We checked in and off we went around 5:15pm with drink in hand. Tony on guitar entertained all aboard with wonderful Hawaiian Music and of course a little Jimmy Buffet to. We snacked on Pupus(appetizer's) and enjoyed the serenity of the ocean. The crew was very friendly and helpful . About an hour into the cruise we helped ourselves to a wonderful buffet of food. The menu was awesome there was pineapple chicken,potato's veggies,salad and wonderful Prime rib. The food was so good ,they are catered by Beach Bums Restaurant in Maalaea Harbor.The crew made sure we always had a drink in hand from cokes to Mai Tai's one was never without. This was all followed up by a brownie cake ,like I really needed to eat anymore but I finished it off . Then back to the harbor after a wonderful Sunset. What a great evening in Paradise ,it just doesn't get any better !
