6 About Maui Welcome to Maui, the Magic Isle From its heavenly beaches to its scenic natural wonders, there are plenty of reasons why Maui has been voted Best Island by readers of Condé Nast Traveler for seventeen years. Discover your own reasons to love Maui as you stroll the seaside streets of Lahaina and the lovely beaches of Kaanapali. Feel the mana (power) of Haleakala National Park or discover the arts and culture of Kahului and Upcountry Maui. From championship golf courses to the scenic road to Hana, your vacation on the Valley Isle promises to be unforgettable. It s no wonder why thousands of humpback whales migrate to Maui s warm waters year after year. One visit to Maui, and you just might join them. From the scenic slopes of fertile Upcountry Maui to beaches that have repeatedly been voted among the best in the world, a visit to the Magic Isle recharges the senses. But like every good magic trick, you ll have to see it for yourself to believe it. Maui History Legends say the demigod Maui pulled the Hawaiian Islands from the sea and lassoed the sun atop Haleakala, the island s highest peak. The island of Maui was named after this mythological being, perhaps because the shape of the island is said to resemble his head and body. King Piilani was the first ruler to unite all of Maui under a single family of alii (royalty) in the early 15th century. In 1790, King Kamehameha I defeated Kahekili, Maui s last king, after a fierce battle in the iconic Iao Valley. Kamehameha took control of Maui and made Lahaina the new capital of the unified Hawaiian Kingdom. For nearly five decades, Lahaina served as the center of government for Hawaii. Simultaneously, the town experienced a surge in its whaling industry. At the height of the whaling era ( ), as many as 500 ships anchored in Lahaina s port. 6

7 Maui Hotel Maui s first sugar mill began operations in As the sugar industry in the islands grew, an influx of plantation workers from China, Japan, Puerto Rico, Korea, the Philippines, Portugal, and Europe arrived in Hawaii. These immigrants became the foundation of the multi-ethnic culture of Hawaii today. You can experience these influences at places like the Lahaina Jodo Mission and in the fusion of flavors found in Hawaii Regional Cuisine. The Lahaina Historic Trail and other notable attractions allow you to explore Maui s rich past today, adding a fascinating new dimension to your visit. GRAND WAILEA RESORT, MAUI Grand Wailea is the jewel of Maui a resort many call the best in the world offering something for everyone. Situated on Maui s most beautiful and serene beach, the resort offers stunning ocean views and is surrounded by mesmerizing gardens and lush tropical flowers. This expansive Wailea Resort truly reflects the natural beauty of Maui.

The Grand Wailea has nine pools on six levels and water features that kids adore, including slides, caves, a water swing, waterfalls, and a river that connects several pools. Grand is no exaggeration for this 40-acre resort with elaborate water features such as a canyon river pool with slides, caves, a Tarzan swing, and a water elevator. Tropical garden paths meander past artwork by Leger, Botero, and noted Hawaiian artists. 7

15 The Post-Trip to the Big Island Hawaii Island The Big Island Hawaii Island isn t just big it s still growing. The Island of Hawaii is the youngest island in the Hawaiian chain and is also by far the biggest, providing a vast canvas of environments to discover a variety of unrivaled natural wonders. This is the home of one of the world s most active volcanoes (Kilauea), the tallest sea mountain in the world at more than 33,000 feet (Mauna Kea), the most massive mountain in the world (Mauna Loa), and the largest park in the state (Hawaii Volcanoes National Park). All but two of the world s climate zones generate everything from lush rain forests to volcanic deserts and snow-capped mountaintops to beautiful black sand beaches. Whether you re looking for a romantic getaway or a journey off the beaten path, you ll discover it all on Hawaii, the Big Island. Hawaii Island is an unrivaled expression of the power of nature. To avoid confusion with the name of the entire state, the Island of Hawaii is often called the Big Island, and what an appropriate name it is. Nearly twice as big as all of the other Hawaiian Islands combined, its sheer size can be inspiring. The dramatic size and scope of the largest Hawaiian Island create a microcosm of environments and activities. On this island s vast tableau, you ll find everything from extravagant resorts and incredible golf courses to modest local towns and sacred historical Hawaiian sites, from the birthplace of King Kamehameha I to Hawaii s first missionary church in Historic Kailua Village (Kailua-Kona). With so much to see, it s best to experience the island in small pieces. There s plenty of room on Hawaii Island for your return. Hawaiian Island History It all began on Hawaii Island. The youngest island in the archipelago, Hawaii Island, was believed to be the first island Polynesian voyagers from the Marquesas Islands set foot on 1,500 years ago at Ka Lae (South Point). You can explore early Hawaiian culture today at Puuhonua o Honaunau National Historic Park. 15

16 The Post-Trip to the Big Island 16 This last place of refuge for kapu (taboo) breakers on the Kona Coast is a 180-acre, completely restored compound offering an authentic look at Native Hawaiian temple ruins, royal grounds, fish ponds, sacred burial spots, and petroglyphs from before western contact. In 1778, Captain Cook arrived on Kauai, opening the door to an influx of westerners. Only a year later on Hawaii Island, warriors at Kealakekua Bay killed Cook after a contentious chain of events. Today, a monument stands in this marine life preserve in honor of Captain Cook. During this time of discovery, Hawaii Island was divided into separate chiefdoms, and war between factions was common. In , Kamehameha built the Puukohola Heiau National Historic Site in North Kohala as a tribute to the war god Kukailimoku to help in his efforts to unite the Hawaiian Islands. This was the last major religious heiau (religious temple) built by early Hawaiians and the largest restored heiau in Hawaii. Soon after completion, the Kohala-born Kamehameha conquered Hawaii Island and went on to unify the Hawaiian Kingdom. Hawaii Island was also the home to King Kamehameha s court until it moved to Oahu in In 1812, Kamehameha the Great returned to his beloved Hawaii Island, where he died in You can see the original King Kamehameha I statue in Kapaau, not far from where Hawaii s greatest king was born. In 1820, the first missionaries arrived in Kailua-Kona. Mokuaikaua Church, on Alii Drive in Historic Kailua Village (Kailua-Kona), still stands and is in use today. Other westerners followed, introducing cattle to the island. Sugar plantations also bloomed on the Hilo side in the 20th century. Today, Hawaii Island remains a vital touchstone for Hawaiian culture. Throughout its modernization, one ancient Hawaiian god is believed to be alive and well here. Pele, the volcano goddess, has settled in Kilauea Volcano at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park after moving south along the island chain. She continues to display her power today, keeping Kilauea in a constant state of eruption since 1983.
