Our flights had us landing in Maui a bit after 4:30pm and it was more like 6pm when we finally made it to the Wailea Beach Resort which was as expected – incredible! Looks like saving all those Marriott Points paid off as we're staying for free!! Our room has a great view, too!!!
Being Easter Sunday, the sand artists made a special treat in his sand pit for everyone.
Most important was that we made it back in time for our first sunset.
Monday, our second day, was all about getting our bearings. We spend a bit of time in the little town to the north of us, Kihei, but of course, we check out the beaches that are within five minutes walking distance from our hotel room. To the south is Wailea Beach.
To the north lies Ulua Beach.
But, back at the hotel, we only have some lava rocks in front of us, but we are sandwiched between the two great beaches shown above.

After only a few minutes of checking out these informational plaques, we spotted a small group of humpback whales way out at sea. Don't worry, we have a whale sighting cruise on Wednesday so pictures are coming from up close and personal.
The planned highlight of the day was to head over to Maluaka Beach (aka Turtle Town) and get some underwater images of some sea turtles, but the sea was too rough to allow for this.
We did get to enjoy watching and listening to the intense surf and we also found a little wildlife to check out!!

We ended the day back in town enjoying a meal at Fred's Mexican Cafe which I hope we visit again. All in all, a very nice first full day and fired up about the rest of the week here in Maui.
