Back in Maui again! Anyone else from TRF here?

I know a lot of TRF-ers head to Maui on a yearly sabbatical... I'm here now on my 5th visit in 5 years, is there anyone else here?

I always post about being in Maui and then only to find that someone else was here post-fact when I'm back in the mainland.

I'm staying at the Four Seasons if anyone wants to meet up for some grub.

I'll try to post some pics also.. I brought my GMTIIC this time around. Helps with the time change.

You understand of course that it's just my seething jealousy making demand pictures but if you have any I'd love to see them!!!!

Been there 3 times and the wife and I are talking about visiting again. The closest we've come to paradise for sure.
Brings back great memories. Dinner at Moma's fish house.


Whale watching.


Climbing Mt Haleakala.


Wish I could join you right now!

We go every year now. My 4 year old daughter has been four times. I am jealous of a 4 year old...

Since you are in Wailea - try the Monkeypod restaurant up the hill. It was our nice find last year.

Lunch at Tommy Bahama is fantastic. Dinner only okay.

Lunch at Mama's Fish House is a must do. Dinner is just as good food wise, but you do not have the nice daylight ocean views.

Have a blast.

I was there in June on my honeymoon. We stayed right next door at the Grand Wailea. Probably my favorite place Ive ever been.

Enjoy your time and post lots of pics for those of us stuck at work!

Thanks guys! It's awesome here.... AWESOME!

This is the 5th time I've been here and the first 2 I was at the Grand Wailea... the last 3 at the Four Seasons. Can't beat the FS here in my opinion.

I brought my parents along this time - paid for their whole trip. They are also having a blast, 1st time at the FS.

... newbies I say.

:)
