Everything you need for a successful Maui vacation is in this concise and intelligent guide. Head to the islands of Maui County-Maui, Lanai, and Molokai, all of which are covered in this book-and you'll find a dizzying variety of sights to explore and adventures to experience, from idyllic beaches and dreamy tropical waterfalls to dormant volcanoes, historic ruins, buzzy restaurants, and exciting nightspots. Author Jeanne Cooper, a longtime Hawaii expert, has crisscrossed these islands and personally visited every place named in this book-and many she deemed not worth your time. This EasyGuide is: * Printed in large, easy-to-read type * Packed with helpful maps, including a full-color foldout map * Precise about pricing, with exact amounts listed for every attraction, restaurant, hotel, nightspot, and shop in the guide so there aren't any nasty surprises * Filled with no-holds-barred reviews of Maui's most appealing lodgings, eateries, museums, historic sights, and natural wonders * Savvy about saving money, with tips that work for everyone from luxury-seekers to backpackers * Mindful that your vacation time is limited. Smart strategies help you plan trips of differing lengths and for travelers with varying interests. A star rating system let you see right away what's worthwhile and what can be skipped.

Travel is easy with Frommer's.
