Really have no idea where to stay even after reading all these threads and online stuff. That Maui revealed app is pretty good.
Kaanapali seems alright, expensive. Kihei seems kind of retro and not much around it other than condos.
Thinking of doing 1 week at one are and another week somewhere else. Thinking or renting a car the entire time, but not sure if necessary. VRBO has a billion places at a billion prices.
Would prefer oceanfront so you could walk from the beach to the condo to take a dump or whatever. Have 2 kids aged 3 and 7.
Checked Honua Kai and its pretty pricy and am not sure I want a giant Mexican style all-inclusive resort, but maybe I do. The Westin villas look like they will cost >$8000, which just seems ######ed.

I rented a condo in Kihei with 2 bedrooms, kitchen, laundry facilities and pool for $99/night. Next time I go I would like to arrange my accomodations so I could spend one or two nights in Hana. The road to Hana was very cool, but was also long for my young family (2,5,7) and we really had to pick our spots. There were some great things past Hana that we just couldn't get to. If we stayed there, we could have seen more of the natural beauty of the island.
