Central Maui Motels

One of the most sacred spots on the island, ‘Iao Valley—a National Natural Landmark whose biggest claim to fame is the 1,200 foot-high lava spire at its center—presents one photo opp after another, from lush vegetation along its valley floors to extensive views of the weathered central coast. As the site of one of Hawaii’s most brutal wars—the Battle of Kepaniwai in 1790—it’s rumored that its stream waters once ran red with the blood of victims. Poignancy is felt in the air here, but the same waters are now lucid and lovely, jutting up against moss-covered boulders and rocks that seem to dance between shadow and light. 4,000 acres of tranquility are enhanced by a steep but worthwhile climb up 133 steps, where you’ll be presented with 360-degrees vistas that practically beg to be captured. Plants abound on its Lookout Trail and Ethnobotanical Trail, but as “cloud supreme” (to which ‘Iao’s Hawaiian name translates), do know it’s best to arrive in the morning before the fog arrives. If you’d like to supplement your trip to the park with guided assistance, look no further than Valley Isle Excursions, whose tour of ‘Iao also includes a stop at Kepaniwai Heritage Gardens—a public space that honors the myriad cultures that shaped modern Maui.

Top Central Maui Hotel Reviews

Royal Lahaina Resort & Bungalows

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great! Check-in was easy and on time. The room was clean and tidy, and it was exactly as expected with a partial ocean view. Expedia gave us a great benefit by offering an add-on that included breakfast and a free show ticket. The only thing that could be improved is reducing the parking fee. Overall, the experience was very good."

The Westin Maui Resort & Spa, Ka'anapali

10/10 Excellent

"5 star for the location, luau, and staff. We came here for my husband’s birthday. The luau in the hotel was amazing!!! Thank you for singing for my husband’s birthday :) The location is close to the beach, to the mall, and to restuarants. The only thing I didn’t like was the beds. The bed was SO SOFT that we were getting lower back pain in the morning, otherwise I highly recommend this hotel . "
