Frommer's Maui 2011 (Frommer's Complete Guides)

By Jeanette Foster and Jocelyn K. Fujii

Book Overview

Completely updated every year (unlike most of the competition), Frommer's Maui features gorgeous color photos of the stunning beaches and thrilling adventures that await you. Meticulously researched by one of Hawaii's most noted journalists, this is hands-down the most reliable, up-to-date, and comprehensive guide to the islands. Each of our candid hotel reviews is based on a detailed personal inspection. You'll find lavish beachfront resorts, intimate rain-forest B&Bs, family-friendly condos, and much, much more. Our dining reviews are simply the best in the business, whether you crave cutting-edge Asian-fusion cuisine or a hearty, affordable plate lunch. Our author makes sure that you'll truly experience the spirit of aloha, and she'll help you steer clear of anything that's overpriced, touristy, or inauthentic. With Frommer's in hand, you'll know where to find secluded beaches; secret spots for snorkeling; the best outfitters to choose for everything from diving to deep-sea fishing; and where to find the top galleries and shops. Inside you'll find extensive coverage of family-friendly accommodations and activities; tips on how to get married in the islands; recommendations for the best honeymoon resorts; and valuable advice on finding the best airfares and package deals. Whether you want to watch the spectacle of sunrise from the top of Haleakala, play a challenging round of golf, snorkel with sea turtles, take the road trip of a lifetime on the scenic Hana Highway, or simply kick back with a mai tai to watch the sunset, you can design the perfect trip with Frommer's Maui. You'll even get a color fold-out map

best guide available for planning a trip to Maui

A terrific guide on the best of everything in Maui, including hotels, restaurants, beaches, sights, etc. Provides plenty of details and insightful commentary - it's clear that they did their homework. Great mile-by-mile guide for the drive to Hana, directing you to beautiful waterfalls, black sand beaches, flora and fauna. I've used it for two trips to Maui in recent years and it proved invaluable. A wonderful resource for anyone planning a trip to Maui.

Very useful guide to the garden isle

Lots of resturant reviews. Good information about beaches and where to stay. Very "real."
