We will be staying at Maui Lea, in Maui next year. Any suggestions you have we appriecate!
That's our home resort. We love it.
Here is a list I put together for some friends. The prices vary, I'll try to indicate which ones I feel are more reasonable.
Wailea:
Gannon’s – they serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, we’ve only had lunch and dinner there. (expensive)
Joe’s Restaurant - (another Bev Gannon restaurant)
Manoli’s Pizza – another one where the setting is great. They do have good pizza and pastas. (moderate)
Monkeypod – we liked it for lunch better than for dinner as we were able to get a table outside. This is in a small shopping center kind of up the hill from the resorts. (moderate to expensive)
The restaurants at the Wailea shopping center are okay, but I’d recommend these others first.
Kihei:
Café O Lei – this is usually our first night dinner spot. It’s within walking distance for you in the Rainbow Mall. Not the fanciest of places, but good selection. And I love their lilikoi margarita. (one of our favorites, moderate)
Bistro 808 – breakfast and dinner, they don’t have a liquor license, but you can bring your own wine in if you want (moderate)
Ono Gelato
Fred’s – for breakfast, again within walking distance (reasonable)
Five Palms – lunch, mostly for the atmosphere (expensive)
Cuatro – don’t have a liquor license, but you can bring your own (moderate)
Three’s – get a table outside (moderate)
Hali'maile General Store – address is Makawao. We’ve only been there for lunch, it was excellent. Another of Bev Gannon’s restaurants. (expensive)
Mama’s Fish House – always excellent and
very expensive
If you check around a lot of places have early bird specials, or Happy Hours that would provide enough for a meal.
