Jac - I can't help with Maui - we did not go there - we went to Big Island, Kauai and Oahu (figures! lol).

Some of our guests did go to Maui after our wedding and they stayed at

The Hyatt
The Four Seasons
Hotel Hana-Maui

they all LOVED these resorts so if you want more info on any of these just let me know and I will ask :)

Car- Yes, TA gave us the four hotels to choose from, so we won't have to pay more $ basically, and availability I guess. joe is talking to her and calling me to check on computer, so I'm kinda the middle man here trying to figure shit out. Im getting annoyed. I wanna call her now but I really cant at work. Tina G. just got back from Maui, I just emailed her and she said Lahaina is 5 minutes from where we originally were, so I think we're going to stay there at the kahana beach vaca club. Also, my sister and Jay went there for a day during their cruise and said they loved it there.

thank you everyone!!! keep it coming.

I would check out tripadvisor to see what it says. I've used it several times when I have traveled domestic and international...usually right on the money.
I think these are all condos/timeshares. Where in Maui are you getting married? The Kaanapali/Lahaina is somewaht of a drive from the Kihei area.
