FAQs

Question

Do you recommend renting a car?

Answer

Yes! Cars are reasonably priced to rent from the airport and definitely worth it to get around the island. Ubers do exist as well.

Question

Tips for saving on eating while there?

Answer

Exploring local grocery stores can be a great way to enjoy delicious meals while keeping your dining budget in check. Many stores offer high-quality prepared foods that are both convenient and cost-effective. We particularly enjoy grabbing lunch from local markets, and the poke selections are always a highlight. To discover affordable dining options, we recommend using Google Maps to find well-reviewed restaurants like L&L Hawaiian Barbecue. As an added bonus, the Costco in Maui is perfect for grabbing a quick, budget-friendly slice of pizza, filling up on gas, and even picking up some souvenirs.

What is the dress code?

Answer

Island attire is the dress code for our wedding! Picture elegant, resort-inspired looks that capture the spirit of our beautiful golf course venue. Ladies, since the ceremony will be on the lawn, we recommend wedge heels or dressy flats to ensure you're comfortable and stylish throughout the celebration.

Question

Any discounted flights?

Answer

While we don't have specific discounted flights to offer, we've discovered some helpful travel rewards strategies: Consider the American Airlines credit card, which provides 50,000 points after spending $2,500 within the first 3 months. The Aviator card offers similar benefits with an annual fee of $99 (waived the first year), potentially earning enough points for a roundtrip ticket to Hawaii. The Southwest Airlines credit card is another excellent option, offering up to 100,000 points. For flexible flight searching, Shelby recommends Skyscanner and Hopper. Hopper is particularly useful, providing price predictions and strategic booking advice.
