Things to do in Wailea

Wailea is a planned resort community on Maui’s sunny south shore, where a string of crescent beaches is backed by luxury hotels, villas, golf courses and a shoreline walking path. It is one of the most popular destinations in Hawaii for families, couples and corporate retreats, and the economy here is almost entirely hospitality, real estate and second homes, with neighboring Kihei offering condos, shops and casual restaurants. The leeward location means sunshine nearly every day and calm morning water for swimming, snorkeling and paddleboarding.
