My Two Cents:

The time we spent in Maui wasn't that long. But the island itself is more calm than the Oahu Island. If you are looking for somewhere to get away from the crowd in Oahu, then Maui will be an option for you.

Things To Do:

We went to the Luau there. It's called Old Lahaina. If you have never been to Luau before, let me tell you. It's like a performance event that takes about 3 hours. Basically, you go there to eat, drink, and look at the Hawaiian culture and performance. It's not cheap either but it's worth it. And the food is Hawaiin Buffet. Yum! If you are couple or just married, then you can dance. I am not sure if they do this at all the Luau's though.
We also went to a volcano national park called Haleakala National Park. It was my first time going to a volcano park, which was really nice.
If you have a quest for nature and scenery, then take a drive to Hana. It's on the island. But on the way there, you will see many beautiful nature and sceneries.

The garden is not free, and we didn't do it.)
I heard Maui has many beautiful beaches. We didn't stop at many beaches, but we did drive along them ;)

We had some time, so we also went for a drive to Kihei. It's just another town, but it's something for you to check out if you are interested.

I'm sure there are more things to do there. Check out "More Info" below to see for yourself.

Things To Know:

If you are going to the Haleakala National Park, don't assume that Hawaii's weather is always warm. You are going up to the mountain to the park. It's freezing up there. We didn't know so we were cold when we were up there. So make sure take a coat/jacket with you, that way you will enjoy outside more ;)
