This is my favorite place in all of Hawaii! Hualalai Resort on the Big Island of Hawaii!

I would like to retire there! Here is a link all about the Big Island of Hawaii
www.gohawaii.com/big_island/ I think the Big Island is often misunderstood. It is like Maui 30 years ago but still growing. Most people just see the desolate lava but remember all islands looked that way in the beginning. There are lots of lush areas and pristine beaches. You just need to look for them and know how to get there! I love the Big Island!
Aloha!
Halloween in Lahaina was cancelled this year! For those of you who may not be familiar with Front Street in Lahaina, Maui, it is a quaint and very historical area/street on the water's edge of an old whaling port that is lines with many shops and restaurants. I have posted a link that will give you more information on Lahaina town! In the past, the road would be closed from automobile traffic and Halloween would be celebrated. There would be lots of great costumes and fun! Over the years however, alot of problems with traffic and crime developed. However, compared to other big city events, Maui was still able to boast a small town Halloween celebration event that most were able to enjoy. Many tourists make Maui their destination centered around this event. Many may still be unaware that this event has been cancelled. Should you decide to venture out to Lahaina, please be careful. The sidewalks on Front Street don't offer much room and we anticipate it to be very chaotic. Parking will be a big problem let alone traffic! My suggestion will be to find a venue that are having Halloween festivities outside of Front Street such as in the Kaanapali Resort area! Whatever you decide to do, have a safe and Happy Halloween!
