I was in Kihei last week, Jawz's very close to another famous restaurant Stella Blues. I am not a " taco" fan, so I ordered a island style grill rib, that turn out to be "my best rib ever", and it only cost me $12, the other day I tried to go back to order the same thing around 8pm, the rib already sold out, so we try something else.The way Jawz cook "Ono"( one Hawaii fish) is so much better than Stella Blues, but the price is only 1/3 of other expensive restaurant, I wish I could go back more, I can use local price to enjoy expensive restaurant's food, it feels great!!!Jawz is the year of the local "Gold" we found this year. Forgot to mention how big portion it is, 2 people can share 1 salad.
We woke up in 2 AM and get all the winter clothes. jacket. swether. scarf... We left around 3 AM, and spend 1 and half hour drove from Kihey to Haleakala.
Everone is asking the same question, "where is the entrance of the waterfall?" "Did you see the waterfall?" According to local people, waterfall is in mile 11, but we miss it, then after mile 12, we already went into Garden of eden. On our way back, we are more alert about it, we don't want to miss it, ... and we found it, it's so pretty.
The fun part of Hana is just like playing treasure hunt, there are so many places for you to stop and seen. The most diffult part is about finding the waterfall. During our trip, you can hear people ask about each other "Did you see the water fall?"
I am the person who's afraid of height, but I was enjoy parasailing so much that I feel like a bird. Some one will shoot your pictures from the boat , and the price is $30 with a digital memory card, you can either buy or nor not buy.
The traffic between Honolulu to other island is actually very convenient, so even if you only can find cheaper tickets to Honolulu, you can always buy tickets from Honolulu to other island. So I book a ticket from Honolulu to Maui, it's only cost me $100, and I could choose the time, there are many flights in one day. The airline I used in Hawaii was Hawaiian airline.
This was our last minute travel, so everything became so expensive, airline tickets.hotel.... After a friend told us about "rent a condo" in Hawaii, I tried to google search ,there it goes... The time I went was Oct 27 to Nov 5, Maui's low season, $75/night (before tax), according to the sales, I got 50% off discount.
