5 reasons to visit the wealthy weekend getaway Maui, the second-largest of Hawaii’s islands – where Mick Fleetwood likes to jam at his bar

Maui is known for many things: its white sand beaches, its plethora of snorkelling spots, and its waterfalls are just a few. But the island – the second-largest of Hawaii's islands – is also known around the world as a destination for ultra-wealthy holidaymakers.

It's also an increasingly popular spot for tourists. In 2019, according to the US News and World Report, Maui welcomed three million visitors for the first time since the island began tracking tourism numbers in 1990.

Fortunately, if you're one of those tourists, there are plenty of spots where you can find a great night out or a delicious meal – you just have to know where to look. We got the inside scoop from Josh Jerman, a Maui-based real-estate broker. From the places with the best dishes to the area with the biggest homes, Jerman's tips will help guide you on the perfect trip through one of America's most beloved islands.

Best eats

For a good meal, Jerman suggests heading over to Wailea, a small town made up of just over 5,600 people. His favourite place there is called The Restaurant at Hotel Wailea, where the menu aims to reflect Hawaii's history and culture.

“The Restaurant overlooks Wailea and has an intimate setting with outstanding sunset views and a creative menu with locally sourced ingredients,” he said.
