Top 10 Maui
Honeymoon Activities

One of the best spas for a couples massage on Maui is Spa Grande. Spa Grande is in the Grand Wailea Resort in South Maui. Enjoy a Wailea spa day at this fabulous Maui hotel and lavish in 360-degree South Maui views of the azure Pacific Ocean, the South Maui coastline, and the dormant Mt. Haleakala in the background. The spa at the Grand Wailea offers the option to build your own couples spa package, or you can choose from their existing Maui spa menu. We think these sound amazing!

Here you can pick up a coffee and a light breakfast to fuel your morning at the famous Anthony’s Coffee Shop. Approximately 20-25 minutes east of Paia, you’ll make your second stop at Twin Falls (mile marker 2) for a fresh coconut, some locally baked goods, and a leisurely walk/light hike and swim in the waterfalls. Once you get back on the road, keep driving eastward towards Hana Town, and try to resist getting sucked into stopping at every bridge and view—if you do, you won’t have enough time to explore as much once you reach the Hana area. Next, make a stop at the Garden of Eden Arboretum (Mile Marker 10). It is a great place to take photos and check out native Hawaiian flora and fauna. Here you’ll find a 100-year-old Mango tree, tons of bamboo, ocean and Puohokamoa waterfall views, and a super cute gift shop with local art and jewelry.

Make your next stop at the Nahiku Marketplace (Mile Marker 29) for a snack or a delicious Maui taco, and another chance to pick up some local gift items. Make your next picture-perfect stop at the incredible Wai’anapanapa State Park (Mile Marker 32), where you’ll have a chance to explore Hawaiian history, a black sand beach, and an ancient birthing pool. Hana Town (Mile Marker 34) is a quiet, traditional Hawaiian village with many sights to see that are all tucked away. There you can explore farmer’s markets, galleries, an excellent Thai restaurant, and Hana Bay. We suggest that you either spend some time at Hamoa Beach (Mile Marker 50) or continue to the 7 Sacred Pools at the Haleakala National Park in Kipahulu (Mile Marker 42). After Kipahulu, stay on the road towards Palapala Ho’omau Church (Mile Marker 41) and explore Old Hawaii with gorgeous views, quiet vibes, and Charles Lindbergh’s grave.

For a truly unique honeymoon activity on Maui, check out the O’O Farm Tours: Gourmet Lunch & Farm Tour, or the “Seed to Cup” Coffee Tour.

This is an excellent chance for a couple of lovebirds to explore a local organic Maui farm with bi-coastal island views and to taste the flavors of the land. O’O Farms also offers wine dinners and provides opportunities for volunteering on vacation!

On a Maui Sunset Dinner Cruise, guests journey over calm Hawaiian waters with incredible panoramic views of Maui’s coastline, mountains, and the outer islands of Lanai and Molokai. Aboard the Pride of Maui catamaran, guests quickly realize that it’s also the optimal place to enjoy a magical Maui sunset bursting over the horizon. In fact, if you book the Maui Sunset Dinner Cruise during the Winter months (roughly December-March), it’s also the best place in the world to view the North Pacific humpback whales during their annual winter migration to Maui’s waters.

The Maui Sunset Dinner Cruise is definitely one of the most exceptional honeymoon activities in Hawaii. On the deck of Pride of Maui, couples create an intimately shared, lifelong memory. With a sunset backdrop like a watercolor painting, and a tropical cocktail in hand, guests become one with the beauty of the islands. The sounds of rolling waves stimulate the senses along with the scent of fresh ocean air, and the warm feeling of your loved one’s sweet embrace.

After perusing the organic-lined shelves of Mana, make your way to Baldwin Beach Park. Once you find parking, head over to the far right of the lifeguard stand where you’ll find the most beautiful swimming cove. Here, you can relax and spend some time swimming in the gentle waves and soaking up the warm Maui sunshine with the North Shore community. Maui’s beautiful beaches are perfect for romance and relaxation, making them ideal for honeymooners. Post-beach-time, you can head back to Paia Town to check out the funky and inspiring collection of gift shops, surf shops, galleries and eateries. Then you can beach-hop and venture east towards Ho’okipa Beach Park to watch or partake in sunbathing, swimming, surfing, windsurfing, kite boarding and stand up paddling. For an extra romantic Maui sunset, make a stop for a cocktail and pupus at Mama’s Fish House in Kuau, one of the most famous restaurants in all of the Hawaiian Islands and a must-visit for a special occasion meal. Couples looking for hidden gems should venture off the beaten path to discover authentic experiences and local favorites along the North Shore.

Guests can easily enjoy dining with fabulous ocean views from resort restaurants Duo, Ferraro’s and Spago. You will also have the amazing option to cozy up at a private table above Wailea Beach, lavishing a 4-course meal made specifically for you and your loved one by one of the Four Seasons award-winning chefs. Some of Maui’s best beaches for honeymooners are located nearby, offering pristine sands and crystal-clear waters.

The Spa at the Four Seasons on Maui also offers Couples’ Instructional Massage, a 50-minute session where each person receives a four-handed massage by the instructor and their partner. Newlyweds can also relish in a lazy day by the pool, enjoying the Serenity Pool from a Missoni Cabana, and spend each morning relaxing in your Maui love nest, savoring each other, and the Four Seasons’ famous Breakfast In Bed menu.

The 360-degree panoramic views span from South Maui to West Maui coastlines, and continue towards Central Maui with massive Mt. Haleakala lying in the background. Venture 4,000 feet up on Mt. Haleakala to the Kula Lavender Farm, and learn all about 45 different varieties of lavender and the horticulture master Ali’i Chang and his legacy. Unwind with aromatherapy and relaxing vibes surrounding you and soothing your souls. Day trips to organic farms like this are a great way to experience Maui’s local culture.

Don’t forget to check out the Ali’i Kula Lavender Farm boutique for locally made organic lavender products and gifts; they are amazing! Next, drive further up Haleakala Highway to the Maui Winery at Ulupalakua Ranch. Cherished by Maui residents for decades, Maui’s only winery offers a rare chance to go wine tasting in Hawaii, explore Maui’s agricultural history, and decompress with a glass of wine in one of the most serene atmospheres you’ll ever find.

We recommend the Maui Film Festival, Taste of Wailea, the Kapalua Wine & Food Festival, the Taro Festival in Hana, and the annual PGA Hyundai Tournament of Champions.
